Chef Hilda Baci has criticised the mindset of people who attribute her success to her partner, saying such comments show how much society still needs to change its attitude towards women.
Baci said she finds the remarks upsetting, even though they do not necessarily annoy her, because they overlook the effort women put into building their own careers.
In a video shared by Goldmyne TV, she said the comments reflect how people view women and their achievements.
“It is sometimes upsetting but I think that it just goes to show where we are as people and what the mindset is,” she said.
The chef added that she is intentional about representing women and creating opportunities for them to become successful.
“That’s why I’m so intentional about putting in so much effort in representing myself, representing women and just giving more women an opportunity to do better for themselves as well,” she said.
