On Air Personality and Nollywood actress, Omotunde Adebowale David better known as Lolo1 or Adaku has shared her opinion on why most women opt in for body enhancement surgery.
On her podcast, “Say My Piece,” with comedian, Ogbolor, Lolo1 shared that undergoing surgery has become commonplace among women.
She confessed that if she could have afforded it, she would have had breast reduction surgery. As a single mother, she recounted the harassment she endured growing up due to her larger breast size, which drew unwanted attention and led to her being sexualized.
Lolo1 asserted that many women who undergo body enhancement are struggling with insecurities and trauma. She also acknowledged that men’s influence is a significant factor in their decision to go under the knife.
“Whether you like it or not, it has become a norm; we are talking Body Enhancement. If I could have afforded it, I would have done breast reduction when I was younger because I had more boobs than girls my age at that time, and I didn’t see it as a symbol. Growing up, I got a lot of negative attention for it. Do you know how long I have been sexualized?
I can tell you that many of the women who do body modification feel insecure.
When you say a woman is insecure, it is always a response to some kind of trauma. The major part is men make you feel that way”.
