The ideas we pass down to young boys shape the men they become.

Commy Mussa women’s rights advocate, multimedia journalist, and founder of SisterSpeak237 raises concerns about the kinds of narratives and ideologies often taught to young men in our societies.

She argues that when certain beliefs are presented as unquestionable truths, they can limit how boys understand responsibility, relationships, and respect. Instead, she calls for more balanced conversations that help young men see the full picture and develop healthier perspectives.

The real question, she suggests, is simple but important: what exactly are we preparing our young men for?

In many communities in Cameroon, a culture of silence still surrounds abuse.

Commy Mussa women’s rights advocate, multimedia journalist, and founder of SisterSpeak237 reflects on how victims are often advised to remain quiet for the sake of family, reputation, or community harmony. Many are told that speaking up will only bring trouble.

But silence has consequences.

She also raises concerns about the systems meant to protect survivors. In some cases, reports of sexual assault take months to move forward, leaving victims to navigate trauma, stigma, and uncertainty while waiting for justice.

Her call is clear: stronger systems and better protection are needed to ensure that survivors are heard and supported.

It’s better to cry in a private jet than to cry on a bike.”

It’s a phrase often used to justify staying in situations simply because they come with comfort or status. But Commy Mussa women’s rights advocate, multimedia journalist, and founder of SisterSpeak237 challenges the thinking behind it
According to her, pain does not become acceptable simply because it exists in a luxurious environment. Abuse, disrespect, and emotional harm should never be glamorized or tolerated in the name of wealth or appearances.

The real conversation, she argues, should focus on dignity, safety, and well-being not whether the pain happens in a private jet or on a bike.
