Women don't need to have kids or get married - Actress Toni Tone

Actress Toni Tone has stated that women don't have to have kids or get married.

She made this known in a series of tweets in which she also revealed that most of her stance on social media concerning issues about women aren't truly what she stands for.

Toni Tone wrote:

"Not every woman wants marriage from a relationship. Sometimes women just want to be in a relationship with someone they can have fun with, explore the world with, cook with, eat with, learn with, grow with, sleep with. Till they don’t want to anymore

"Some women aren’t ready for marriage but they still value romantic relationships. Others don’t want marriage whatsoever. As long as that is communicated to the person they’re in a relationship with, who are you to judge.

"I’m going to stress the communication element because this is what makes the difference. Entering a relationship with someone and not being clear or honest about your wants is the problem. That’s when you waste peoples time. Be transparent and truthful. Don’t string people along.

"It’s funny to me that some people are annoyed by this thread. Why does someone else not wanting marriage annoy you, if they’re with a person who understands and respects that? I’m convinced some people HATE it when women do anything that goes against what’s expected from them".

She added:

"People are quick to assume they know what I want with my life because I defend the decisions of other women. If I say “some women don’t want kids and that’s okay”, that doesn’t mean I never want kids. It means I recognise all women are entitled to make their own life choices.

"I have a big platform and I know this. So sometimes I use it to speak up on behalf of friends, family, or even strangers. What I share isn’t always reflective of how I live my life or the decisions I make/will make. I just share what I think needs to be read or known.

"Women don’t always have to follow the status quo. Women don’t have to have kids or get married. Women don’t have to wait till marriage to have sex. Women should always have autonomy over their own body. Women don’t have to do what you want them to do".
