Bobrisky Sparks Online Reactions After Claiming Delayed Period Ahead of Birthday Photo Shoot

Controversial Nigerian crossdresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has stirred fresh debate on social media after claiming that his monthly period was delayed and expressing concern about using sanitary pads during an upcoming birthday photo shoot.

In a post shared via Instagram, Bobrisky stated: “I want my period to come before my birthday shoot. I want to be free. I can’t be changing pads on set.”

The post comes amid Bobrisky’s ongoing effort to assert his gender identity, having previously stated that he has undergone gender-affirming procedures. The internet personality also used the opportunity to praise women for the pain and discomfort associated with menstruation.

“Women are really trying. Monthly period is not easy. Men need to spoil women more,” he wrote, urging men to treat women with greater empathy and respect.

Bobrisky also cautioned men against engaging in certain discussions regarding menstruation, emphasizing that such experiences are unique to women. He wrote the word “WOMEN” in all caps to reinforce the message’s intended audience.

While some fans supported his sentiments and praised him for acknowledging women’s struggles, others took to the comment section to express disbelief and criticism, accusing the crossdresser of spreading misinformation and seeking attention.

The post follows recent headlines involving Bobrisky’s legal battles with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and a series of provocative online statements aimed at reinforcing his claimed transition.

As always, reactions remain sharply divided, with some defending his right to self-identify and express himself, while others continue to question the validity of his claims and intentions.

Bobrisky remains one of Nigeria’s most polarizing public figures, frequently dominating conversations around gender, identity, and celebrity culture in the country.
