Ghanaian socialite, actress, and media personality Efia Odo, also known as Andrea Owusu, has sparked discussions with her candid opinions on submission in relationships.
The outspoken media personality is pushing back against conventional beliefs, stating that submission from women should not be given automatically but should be earned by men who meet specific criteria.
During a recent episode of her widely followed podcast, Rants, Bants, and Confessions, Efia Odo outlined her standards for a man deserving of submission, highlighting the significance of accountability and self-improvement.
“Before I can submit to a man, he has to have a certain level of responsibility. You need to be a provider, a man who respects himself, someone I can grow with, and learn from,” she said.
The former Eats Avenue co-owner argued that true leadership from a man naturally inspires submission from a woman.
“Why wouldn’t a woman submit if the man is doing what he’s supposed to do?” she questioned, suggesting that submission becomes a natural response to competent male leadership.
Efia Odo addressed what she sees as unreasonable expectations in relationships, challenging the logic of men who expect submission without demonstrating their own worth.
“If a guy isn’t doing anything, why would you expect a woman to submit? It doesn’t make sense,” she wondered.
