Bobrisky: Why I decided to become a woman

Bobrisky, Nigerian self-acclaimed transgender, says he decided to become a woman after struggling for years as a man without progress.

The controversial internet personality spoke in a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo wherein he reflected on his past struggles and foray into crossdressing.

The graduate of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) said nobody wanted to associate with him in the past because he had no money.

“I want to be a woman because being a woman has paved a lot of ways for me. Women don’t actually know how powerful they are. They don’t know how to use their resources as a woman,” he said.

“A lot of them. Some of them get that right but majority don’t. When I was a guy, I didn’t have anything. I was just there hustling. Nobody wants to talk to you or associates with you because you don’t have money.

“You only get orders to do this or that like you’re a servant. But I feel like I’m not in for that, I want to be a boss of my own so let me just use what I have to get what I want.”

According to the 30-year-old, his initial plan was to try crossdressing for a few years and see if it would give him the prominence and wealth he craved.

Bobrisky said with the affluence he has gotten so far, he has no intention of quitting crossdressing, saying he makes millions of dollars weekly.

“My initial plan was that if crossdressing is okay for me, then I’ll continue it. But if it’s not, I’ll do it as business for a while and quit,” he added.

“But I’m enjoying it, I’m enjoying every bit of it that I don’t even want to stop. Millions of dollars drop into my account on a weekly basis, like I make so much money.”
