A gentleman named Koo Kofi on Facebook has heaped reactions with a post that asserts that a woman in the 21st century does not need to be able to perform house chores to be a good wife.
In the post that was made in the popular Facebook group, Tell It All, the gentleman indicated that men who still hold the view that a good wife must be able to cook, clean, and wash have a third-century mindset.
To buttress his point, Koo Kofi said wives of rich kings and princes do not perform domestic chores and men should stop being poor in order to give their wives the good life they deserve.

The post generated so many reactions from social media users.
Portia Mensah-Bonsu, for instance, said:
"One thing I have learnt from my mother is to cook my husband's meals no matter what! Do we know what goes into cooking? Hm
"Having these home skills as a woman doesn't make you a slave! It's the basics of being a woman. But men learn to normalize luxury also...
"But choose a woman hu at least has dese skills ...3y3 important."
Leninsor Kakrabah-quarshie suggested:
"Choices.....just go for what works for you. One man's meat is another man's poison. One wants a woman who cooks and cleans, fine. Another wants to hire help so his woman will only dress up, look pretty, paint her nails and relax.....fine. Everybody is happy, it shouldn't be so complicated wai."
Abena Shazy Woraeyewaa, a lady, disagreed with the post:
"Oh how can you marry a woman who can't do at least simple house chores not necessarily in perfect doing oo."
