She called it an “unfair gender stereotype.” The concept that women must be the caregivers for the men they are involved with is an archaic and narrow-minded notion, and Grande’s choice to stop seeing Miller was not selfish nor ill-intentioned, but reasonable and rational.Īnne Balay, a gender and sexuality instructor, said the issue with women being seen as motherly figures is that they are given a moral obligation to nurse people with substance abuse disorder back to health, rather than focus on their ,wellbeing. “I will continue to pray from the bottom of my heart that he figures it all out and that any other woman in this position does as well.” “Of course I didn’t share about how hard or scary it was while it was happening but it was,” the tweet continued. Grande responded to a comment claiming she was responsible for Miller’s DUI arrest last May. “I am not a babysitter or a mother, and no woman should feel that they need to be,” Grande wrote in a tweet after her breakup with Miller. While the instinctual thing to do is help your loved ones, there is only so much you can do for the person. I can imagine that it’s extremely hard to be in a relationship with someone who is addicted to drugs. It is time for us to stop attacking women for the actions - in this case, illness - of their significant others. Now, Grande is facing the blame for her ex-boyfriend’s addiction and ultimately his death. Some blame Ono for Lennon’s ultimate estrangement from the band. It is named after Yoko Ono and the influence some Beatles fans believe she had on John Lennon, according to Rolling Stone. The Yoko Effect refers to the longstanding myth that women are connected to the behaviors of their romantic partners, even when they may not comprehend them. The long-standing Yoko Effect became prominent once again. Suddenly, it was like society agreed that Miller’s suspected overdose was the result of Grande ending their toxic relationship. The two musicians went public as a couple in August 2016 and their relationship lasted until May. The comments and posts about her were scathing. I saw Ariana Grande’s name almost as many times as Miller’s. While I wasn’t personally a fan of his music, I respected the down-to-earth attitude he had when he appeared in interviews, so naturally, I felt sad for him and his fans.Īs I scrolled through Twitter and Instagram, I quickly started feeling sad for someone else, though.
