Ghanaian actress, entrepreneur, and outspoken feminist Lydia Forson has offered insights into why some men seem to prefer women with limited financial means.In a recent tweet circulating on social media, Forson suggested that these men may be drawn to dating women who are financially dependent because it grants them a sense of power and control.

According to Forson, some men purposefully choose young or financially reliant partners to exert influence over them.She argued that these men may become agitated when they lose control, and their aversion to financially independent women stems from the belief that they cannot easily dictate their actions.

In her tweet on the platform formerly known as Twitter, Forson asserted, "Some men know EXACTLY what they’re doing when they pick young girls or those who don’t have to spend on. It’s about power and control. It’s why they get so aggressive when they can’t control them any longer. It’s also why they don’t like women who have their own money!!"

Lydia Forson is a Ghanaian actress, writer, and producer.In 2010 she won the Africa Movie Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role.
