Microeconomics of Love in Kenya

Kenyan sisters watch out sababu those jamaas are getting a little picky. Saturday Nation reported that Kenyan men salivate for the lady who works part time, has no kids, is chocolate brown in complexion, alafu si mnene na simwembamba (she must be medium sized). Also, the lady has to be younger and shorter than him. She must earn less. It’s advisable for her family not to interfere with the relationship. Same or lower education level is a plus. Do you—or does your lady—fit the gold standard?Despite those demands, 85 percent of Kenyan jamaas still think you love them because of their money; only 76 percent attribute your relationship to pure love and affection. I could not help noticing that ‘strong and independent ladies tend to intimidate mature Kenyan men;’ it gets worse as men get older.
Read Kwamchetsi Makokha’s report on the survey.
Bottomline: The survey asked what Kenyan men want in a woman, but what do Kenyan women want in a man? That can help us find the balance, i.e., equilibrium in economics.
Blah blah blah
Fish cakes

Yet more fish cakes
Guess what ... yeah ... fish cakes.
The end of the fish cakes
