YouTuber Mungai Eve states that her boyfriend should earn more than her. In a chit-chat session with Lizz Jackson, the digital content creator said the disrespect may come unplanned.
Mungai Eve claimed society groomed men to be providers and women helpers. In her view, a man should always be ahead of his girlfriend in everything, especially finance.
