Renowned Nigerian actress and singer, Shaffy Bello, has weighed in on the ongoing controversies surrounding the question of what a partner brings to the table.
During a recent episode of the 'Me, Her and Everything Else' podcast, the veteran thespian delved into the topic, asserting that men have a valid reason to inquire about what a woman brings to the table in a relationship.
Putting herself in the shoes of a man, Shaffy Bello expressed a strong stance, stating that she cannot envision marrying a woman who is a liability. She emphasized that being a responsible and hardworking woman is an attractive quality, whereas constant neediness and entitlement are not desirable traits.
“I would tell the ladies, never tell a man, ‘Why are you asking me what do I bring to the table?’ I’m sorry, I’m not one of those; I think we both should ask ourselves, ‘What are we bringing to the table.’ If he’s bringing something to the table, you should bring something to the table. I don’t want to marry a liability if I was a man. As a matter of fact, you look more attractive that way. You can’t just be needy, that’s not attractive,” she added.
The veteran actress's perspective on the matter has sparked discussions on social media, with a video clip of her statements circulating and gaining attention.
