A Ghanaian woman, Ida Osei Tutu, ignited an online debate after opening up about her kind of man in a social media video.
While people look for different qualities in prospective partners, including good looks, wealth, etc., this woman has a specific cultural preference.
In a video, she noted that she would only marry an Ashanti man and would not compromise on this requirement in a potential partner.
She did not give a specific reason for her choice; however, she noted that an Ashanti man who is dark-skinned and hardworking will make a good partner—whether tall or short.
Ida was speaking during an interaction on Asetena pa with Akoto Mansa about potential partners' turn-ons and turn-offs.
Ida was resolute about her preference and warned men who were not Ashantis to back off.
She also took viewers into the depths of her turnoffs in men, stressing that a lazy, bleached, or braggart man is a red flag.
