The Game had time!
He posted a series of tweets detailing how men should be providers and take care of the home. He said,
“Why she gotta pay 1/2 the rent ?? She giving you 1/2 the p*** or sumn ??? N***** kill me…. since the beginning of time, REAL MEN have always taken care of [the shelter], providing & protecting. & if you ain’t got it… go get it !!!”
The Tweet went viral and sparked a debate on social media. While some people agree, others don’t. The Game shared more tweets about what men should do. In another message, he said,
“If you’re lucky enough to land an independent woman who works her ass off & still comes home to cook, clean, take care of kids & go krazy sexually…. let her stack what she make in case y’all need it one day & still handle everything as a man !!!”
He continued and said he wouldn’t let his woman “share the worry” of paying for anything. The Game went on to say that it’s pleasing to women to know their man is taking care of the home. He addressed the backlash that he received. The Game said,
“I get it.. n*ggas is mad at the tweets. But ask ya self why ? Cause you don’t want a real woman, you want a ROOMATE. I’ve seen my mama damn near slave at home & still go work a 10 hour shift as a child & I can’t let MY WOMAN go out like that. If you ain’t that type of man, kool.”

The term “I got it baby, don’t worry about it”…… makes most womens soul smile, heart warm & vagina get more moist than perfect tollhouse cookies, but what do I know 🤷🏿♂️

Everybody different, but it just ain’t in me to let MY WOMAN share the worry of paying for ANYTHING. I feel good carrying that load & im not changing !!!

This is the problem you post stuff like this and women actually believe this stuff yes real men go to work and so do real women it's a 50-50 split we're not all millionaires like yourselves!

My family always said 50/50 is a roommate. I’m not rich either but real men know about providing for their family

Big facts. Nothing against a dude who's working hard and just can't cut it but I've never had help from a woman. I have to be able to afford my lifestyle with or without my girl so I don't mind paying all of the rent and most of the bills if I'm in a relationship.
