A young Ghanaian lady has openly stated her dislike for house chores, cautioning her prospective husband to be willing to be a supportive partner.

Due to this, the young lady, in a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, said she would only settle for a man who would assist her in discharging her marital duties and responsibilities when the time comes for her to get married.
"I know that if I should get married someday, I would definitely get help because I'm not a domestic person. I don't like cooking, I don't like washing, I don't like cleaning. If I have to do that for someone continuously, I would start to resent the person," she stated.
"Every day, you are sitting there and I'm cooking and serving you every single day. Are you a leper? You can't get up and help yourself"? she added.
Speaking on the same show organised by the Silent Beads, an unidentified gentleman responded that he would not help with house chores if he was the only one responsible for the home's upkeep.
"But if you are the only person providing for the house, leave it solely for the woman to do it. If I'm the one providing, the utility bill, water bill, chop money, children's school fees, medical bills... I sit and watch TV and leave you to do the chores alone because we are all choosing our suffering very well," he countered the lady's assertions.
