Men and women don’t really have a “type” — we have a preference!

If a man prefers a woman who cooks, cleans, and holds it down, looks won’t matter — he’ll pursue that woman. If a woman prefers a man who steps up as the head of the household, she’ll pursue that man.

For me, I preferred a man who valued family first — because I wanted a big family, 10 kids to be exact! Cheick said, “No problem.” I also wanted a man who would give me the option to work or not, someone I could build with. His looks or his pockets were never a consideration — just his work ethic and character.

I married my preference. And honestly, a lot of people would find what they’re looking for if they stopped chasing a “type” and focused on their preferences instead.
