"I have never experienced pretty privilege until I started going to Africa, and that's not just in Congo. Even when I went to Ghana. In Ghana, I spent £0.75p the whole time I was there and I was there for two weeks," she stated.

She further stated that in the UK, African women do not get that kind of treatment from men, hence her appreciation of Africa's kindness.

The pretty privilege that the London-based lady referred to is a social construct, where individuals who are considered physically attractive receive some benefits or advantages in society.

Netizens react to the lady's video

Netizens who chanced on the UK-based lady's video, which was posted on Instagram by @iamphylxgh_, shared their views.
