Looking back at her younger years, Phyna, who recently opened up about plans of having a baby, admitted she once believed there had to be something wrong with women who remained single in their 30s.
According to her, she often questioned her older relatives about why they had not gotten married.

@ChimedomC stated:
"Truth is that there's a western agenda to reduce the world population by pushing the new-wave feministic idea that a woman is meant to first build her career before thinking of starting a family. But most women regret such decisions when approaching age 30-35. This is not new."
@fingerlyjay noted:
"Heyaa don’t deceive yourself o, so you don’t know that your aunties had problem and even you too get problem the same problem that’s why. I have to tell you becuase you can’t see it. You have to start first by telling yourself your real age"
