Are You A Good Girlfriend?: Celebs Dish On What It Means To Be A Good Partner

Steve Harvey

With How To Think Like A Man selling it’s umpteenth copy as we speak, Steve Harvey says that the key to letting men know that you’re a good woman is to act like a “keeper.” According to Steve, being high-maintenance is key:

“That brings me to the “keeper,” a woman who commands respect, and the “sport fish,” a girl with no rules who keeps things “day to day.” Popular culture seems to favour the second kind: the low-maintenance woman, the non-nag. You preach the opposite.

It’s you, the woman, who has the power to determine whether you’re a keeper or a throwback. It’s the way you act, it’s your standards, it’s what you’re willing to accept, what you will put up with. A woman has a right to know when she’s going to get married, if you’re going to marry her. A woman should not be at a guy’s beck and call. That’s ridiculous.”

Do you agree?
