She explained that anytime they had issues and her man started shouting or complaining, she looked at him with disdain, knowing he was not her type of man.

“These are things that, along the line, become very necessary. Back then, I did not know because I was still very young. I didn’t know the importance of being with somebody that you are physically attracted to. When the relationship starts getting soggy someday, that physical attraction will hold the relationship down.”

Netizens comment on importance of looks

YEN.com.gh collated some reactions to the lady’s opinion shared by Silent Beads on Facebook. Read them below:

Nana Yaw Preko Edward asked:

“Silent Beads, Why are you condoning body shaming targeted at short guys?”

Chris-Basnard Fosua said:

“Not a bad idea, but it's only the fear of God and good morals, Godly Virtues &/Principles grounded in the word of God that can continue to sustain any kind of marriage, even when is almost collapsing. We shouldn't forget that our looks are not constant, they keep on changing; naturally or cosmetologyly. Fear of God is key; you live by God's commandments.”

“You have a point but where the problem is is finding someone with all the key features you are looking for. You might never find him or her. Or even if they exist there’s no guarantee they’ll also be interested in you. At a point, you must compromise something but will you comprise an internal feature or an external one? That choice and its consequence is what u’ll deal with for a lifetime.”
