Toke Makinwa has reignited the debate on financial expectations in relationships, stating that there’s nothing wrong with women expecting men to handle their bills.
During a recent episode of Toke Moments podcast, the media personality dismissed societal criticism against women who prefer financially generous partners. She argued that rather than shaming them, men who disagree should simply seek partners who align with their values.
“You don’t need to lower your standards,” she stated. “If a woman wants a man to pay her bills and you can’t, leave her alone. There’s someone else who will.”
Makinwa’s comments have since sparked intense conversations online, with some applauding her for promoting financial standards in relationships, while others accused her of encouraging dependency. However, she stood firm, insisting that people should focus on finding compatible partners rather than criticizing others’ choices.
Her perspective challenges the ongoing debate over gender roles and financial expectations in modern relationships, forcing many to reassess their stance on love, money, and societal expectations.
