[@sweetspice9120]

it really depends. Some families are more conservative than others. All my brothers never introduced their now wives to my parents until few months to their engagement(2 dated for 7 yrs since it was from college, and 1 married his wife within 7 months of dating) Many African parents especially the wealthy class find it insulting if you keep bring different boyfriends and girlfriends to introduce to the family. You only bring a person to them when u are absolutely sure you will be marrying them. What serious men to show seriousness is they invite you to family events and parties so ppl get to see you and assess you indirectly and then as time goes on, research is done on your background and family (We yorubas have a name for this background search). By the time you bring the girl to the family formally, bakground search is already well done and approved silently.

[@tkelly2546]

BANNER OF THE DAY!!! You are responsible for your decisions. Check your hormones, take a deep breath and allow a good amount of oxygen to flow through your brains. That romantic feeling you develop when you haven't met someone in person is not serendipidity, it is marginal stupidity. In Ghana, tradition is "THICK" in the villages and gets "DILUTED" as you get into the big cities. However, the influence of family tradition is everywhere. So YES, meeting the family (or a family member) is a good indication of where you stand. With the language barrier, how about an agreement that english is spoken when around the Ghanaian family? Family calls are very common with Ghanaians. It's ok to put general conversations on speaker so that everyone feels a part of it. It removes the suspicion when you have to excuse yourself and take the call in private. #bridgethegap #Pollinate

[@akusabiiga]

Marriages in Ghana is a family thing because none of the couples can decide on divorce without the families consent. The families always step in to solve any problem that arises in the marriage but if you marry on the street then you lose all the intervention rights.

[@positivevibes2406]

The thing about tribes is not fully correct. My dad is Ewe and my mum is Akuapem. My aunt married a Fanti. My cousin married a Hausa. There are lots of intermarriages. I don't know maybe it's because I don't live in Ghana.

Good interview. With the cold hard facts. I was born to Ghanaian parents and grew up in the UK. I did a couple years of high school and some college in Ghana and then moved to the US. My advise to Diasporeans on this Ghana marriage issue is to stay away from it. You have no clue of the culture and mentality that govern over there. The Ghana women think they have no options that is why they put up with it. Finding a happily married Ghana woman is actually rare. For them its not the happiness, it is the status of being married and having children that they care about. What bothers me is that all the assetts and work you put in the marriage etc is for somebody else to assess and even benefit from. Even with the recent legal changes women and children are routinely evicted and dispossessed upon divorce or death of a spouse. Inability to have kids is an automatic Polygamy situation or divorce. Even without that Polygamy or extra marital children is normal with zero consequences. There is no such thing as ME over there. Everybody belongs to an extended family whether you want to or not and you comply with the collective rules. That's it there is nothing else to consider. Period.

[@kwakuba9167]

Ny, thanks for all your efforts. Your guest did her best to speak about Ghanaian marital customs, traditions, and laws and I'm sure she means well. But I'm afraid some of the things she said aren't accurate, and I think it's simply because she doesn't know or understand the norms in question. Given the importance of the subject, I suggest you find others, preferably a Ghanaian family attorney, or an educated Ghanaian elder to also address the topic. But the warning she gave to "sisters" flying to Ghana and rushing into marriage is on point! DO NOT DO IT! Why would anyone make such a life-changing commitment to a total stranger you don't know? That's too risky and foolish! Wherever anyone lives, Ghana or America, you should not marry someone you have only known online. At the very least, give yourself time to know this person - his or her values, outlook on life, character etc. It's always wise to look before you leap! Again, thanks for your enlightening videos, and I hope you take my suggestion into account. Blessings to you.

Really, I just cannot fathom why our African American sisters especially, come over to Ghana and suddenly become 'experts' at Ghanaian culture and tradition. This woman is clearly recounting her own version of stuff she has heard about Ghanaian customs, some of which is sadly, pure misinformation. But the penchant of the African-American KZbinrs to seek information from these partly-informed Americans is the REAL problem here.

It depends on what the family ask.

There was a time they used to ask for sewing machine for her, lol. Then your family must present a bottle of schnapps for acceptance. They used to pour libation with the schnapps that is to solidify the union. And to divorce traditionally, you must return the schnapps if not, the marriage isn't broken.

Also, Muslim men don't automatically have the right to have four wives. You can also pledge that you don't want it. It's not all Muslim men that want to four wives. There also has to be a reason why they pick another wife. It can't just be for no reason. He has to have enough money to keep those wives. Mostly men pick four wives because they feel like doing it but they don't have to do it and it's not their right to have four wives just for the sake of it.
