Yaya Mavundla puts troll in her place
Social media is a powerful tool that has helped people come together and even excel in life. It can sometimes be used for the wrong reasons by some trolls.
Media personality and activist Yaya Mavundla recently shared a post responding to a troll who had asked her if she could get pregnant. Although she seemed unfazed by the awkward question, Yaya still shared the screenshot on her page and addressed the issue.
Taking to her Instagram page, Yaya shared sultry pictures and joked about the follower who claimed to be "curious" about her life. The person asked:
"Just asking out of curiosity, can you fall pregnant my dear? Please educate us."
In her response, the media personality said she did not respond because the answer was not going to help her in any way. She wrote:
"She legit asked me if I can get pregnant, imagine. But now here's the thing, whatever answer I would have given her wouldn't do anything for her. But again, she did say she is curious about my life."
Briefly News spoke to Yaya Mavundla who said the public needs to educate themselves and research about such matters before asking questions on public platforms. She said:
"As much as I understand that the public will always have an interest in our lives and what we share on social media, I think it is important for people to sometimes educate themselves on issues that have answers on the internet.
"With that said, even if I had the means to get pregnant, I would not be falling pregnant anytime soon as the Durex invisible condom gives me the same pleasure during sex as I would have if I had sex raw, so this time around I am choosing pleasurable safe sex with Durex invisible."
Speaking to Briefly News, media personality Inno Matijane said she sometimes ignores the trolls. The star also noted that it's not easy to ignore them because she wants to stand by her truth and raise awareness. She said:
"I sometimes engage in reprimanding those who feel they have a right to speak on a transwoman’s body. It’s not ideal to respond one would say, but I believe it’s really important to call people out sometimes because that’s the only way people will see how harmful their negative comments are to a transwoman’s life.
"Sometimes I ignore negative comments but it’s not easy because you really want to stand by your truth and protect yourself as a transwoman. However if anyone comes to me wanting to find out more about me politely, I’m always ready to educate and bring awareness."
