Don't Date If You Can't Afford It - Bukky Wright Sparks Heated Debate by enemyofprogress(op): 6:04am On Jul 26
"Don't Date If You Can't Afford It!" — Bukky Wright Sparks Heated Debate on Relationships and Money.

Veteran Nollywood actress Bukky Wright has set social media on fire after sharing her opinion on the financial responsibilities of men in relationships.

According to the actress, a man should naturally provide for the woman he is dating without waiting for her to ask.

In her words:

"She doesn't even need to ask you. It's your responsibility as a man to know that your woman needs to dress well and look good. She should be your pride."

Reacting to the term "gold digger," Bukky Wright didn't hold back:

"I hate it when men call women gold diggers. What do you expect her to dig? I won't advise any woman to dig anything less than gold."

When asked if men who cannot afford the financial demands of dating should stay away from relationships, she responded:

"Then don't date if you cannot afford it! Or date according to your level."

Her comments have since divided opinions. While some people agree that a man should be willing to support his partner, others believe that modern relationships should be built on love, partnership, and shared responsibility, rather than placing the financial burden on one person.

This woman just shattered the decades of respect that many have for her. Very poor take from her.

In her myopic logic, a man should provide for a lady he is not married to, and has no consanguineous relationship with? A random woman that can leave anytime? A woman that might have very little value to offer you (no talking about sex here).

What happened to going for extra courses and certifications for yourself? What happened to purchasing stock and be earning passive income?

If you're feeling too generous and your family are doing well, the man should locate the nearest orphanage or Primary Health Care Center and establish a stream of donation for them. God will bless you tremendously (hopefully including a good lady for a spouse).

No man has any business providing for a lady you're not married to. She's not your wife, mother, daughter, sister, etc. Her parents and family should do the providing. Nobody should fuel anybody's entitlement.

Or Hanty don dey rage-bait in order to earn from X and Facebook? Because this nonsense she vomited is totally reprehensible.

And "afford it" to her is about materialism, I would argue. I'm not surprised though.

She is wrong
Until he puts a ring on her finger, dating responsibility et al should be handled based on understanding

Financial responsibility is not gender specific
Re: Don't Date If You Can't Afford It - Bukky Wright Sparks Heated Debate by Omoawoke(m): 12:51pm On Jul 26
She’s 100% correct …
A man’s responsibility is to cater for a woman, and the woman should submit to the man..
Anything other than that is very wrong !

Yes o, dating is not meant for the poor at the moment. Better still, declare you asset and then let your dating partner know whether he or she should carry along with the date.

At 59 she should have grown up children. Is this how she'd raise her girls up if she has any..
Re: Don't Date If You Can't Afford It - Bukky Wright Sparks Heated Debate by LabStores: 12:56pm On Jul 26
So dating is all about spending money now? And I'm pretty sure she's directing that statement at men.

It's worrying how some parents think. This is the same mindset they'll pass on to their children, then years later they'll complain about "the children of this generation."

What exactly are we teaching people about relationships?

Well, we can't blame her. Even ******** people grow old. Also, age and wisdom don't always arrive together.

Madam, don't complain when he treats you like crap because you are having this dependant mentality.

Also don't complain when he has more than one of you as you have an entitlement take,t take, take mentality without giving anything tangible back.
