Media personality MzGee has opened up about how women can sometimes be insensitive to their fellow women, particularly in the workplace.

She recalled a moment early in her career when her commitment to chasing exclusive stories was downplayed by a colleague simply because she had no children.

“I used to hop. Wherever there was an event, you’d find me there. Even if you didn’t invite me, I’d show up because I wanted to get exclusives,” she said on her Gee O’clock show.

“One day, a colleague said, ‘Gee, you don’t have a child, so you’re all over the place. If you had a child, you wouldn’t have had the time to be roaming and scouting for news.’”

MzGee described the remark as more than just a passing comment, noting that such statements could deeply hurt, especially if someone was quietly dealing with fertility struggles. She questioned how a woman advocating for empowerment could make such a comment to another woman.

She further pointed out that women are often the ones behind body-shaming comments, sharing that she had personally suffered such attacks—mostly from other women.

“I am a victim of body shaming, and it mainly came from women. I even had to write on my Facebook page that the rate at which women confidently body shame women is alarming. It gives men the pleasure to do same,” she noted.

MzGee emphasized the need for a change in how women relate to each other, calling for kindness, grace, and respect.

“I get excited when women are excelling... but the things women do to women!” she exclaimed. “You’ll see people who cannot go a day without makeup come and say ‘look at her face without makeup’... and it’s mostly women writing those ill, nasty comments.”

She stressed that if women treated each other better, it would set a stronger standard that discourages men from disrespecting women.

MzGee began her media journey in 2005 at Eagle FM while studying at Cape Coast Technical University.

She later worked with Skyy TV, Pravda Radio, and TV3, before rising through the ranks in the media industry. In 2023, she joined Despite Media as the host of UTV’s United Showbiz.
