Renowned Nigerian stand-up comedian Okey Bakassi has shed light on the complexities of women’s behavioural patterns during an episode of The Honest Brunch podcast. Drawing from years of personal experience and observation, Bakassi offered insights into the emotional dynamics that often influence women’s actions and reactions.

According to Bakassi, much of the unpredictability stems from a lack of clarity in women’s desires—a trait many women may not even recognize themselves.

“I’ve spent a lot of time studying how women behave,” he admitted. “You’ll notice that, in general, women can be unclear about what they want. And sometimes, they don’t even realize it themselves.”

He shared an example from his marriage to illustrate his point. “There are times when my wife will get upset with me, and I don’t even know why,” Bakassi explained. “She might be angry, and then, within moments, she’s calm again. It’s confusing for men, but it’s part of the natural ebb and flow of emotions.”

Bakassi suggested that such emotional fluctuations are common across romantic relationships, friendships, and family dynamics, and he encouraged men to respond with patience and understanding.
