Media personality and influencer Nana Aba Anamoah has sparked conversation online after delivering a blunt message to women who expect lavish treatment from their partners without offering anything meaningful in return.

The debate first began after an X user targeted men who put in little to no effort toward their partners' birthdays. Nana Aba, however, urged women to also show up for their men.

When another user pushed back, arguing that it was simply "female nature" not to reciprocate, Nana Aba rebutted.

"It's not my nature. I give my man proper, meaningful and sensible gifts. You should try that too. Gift giving is neither a one-way street nor an entitlement.

"Don't expect champagne treatment when all you offer is 'a king was born today', singlets and boxers," she fired back.

The veteran media personality also encouraged women not to limit gestures of love to special occasions alone, adding that the habit of giving should be consistent and not tied to calendar events.

Her comments have sparked online reactions, with some applauding her candour and others pushing back against what they see as an unfair characterisation of women in relationships.

Don’t expect champagne treatment when all you offer is ‘a king was born today’, singlets and boxers. And don’t just wait… https://t.co/whJFbVxVHA
