79% of Ghanaian men prefer dating/marrying women aged under 30, as opposed to 21% for women over 30, according to a poll run by Ghanaian lawyer and writer, Chris-Vincent Agyapong.
Agyapong, founder of GhanaCelebrities.Com, conducted the poll via his Facebook page, with a sample size of 3,300. The poll’s margin of error was not stated.
Participants in the poll were asked to answer yes/no to the question, “As a man, who would you want to settle down with or choose as a partner?” The options were a woman aged less than 30 years or woman aged over 30.
After 24 hours of voting, Agyapong presented the results to his over 100,000 followers. “POLL RESULTS ARE IN: 79% OF MEN PREFER UNDER-30 WOMEN – THE MARKET HAS SPOKEN,” he said with a flourish.
A former student of the University of East London says the poll results back up his view that men who are seen as high-value tend to like women younger than 30.
Chris Vincent Agyapong criticized older women over 30 who got upset and tried to change the poll results in their favor, even though it was clear that only men were supposed to vote.
In recent weeks, Agyapong, who talks a lot about simple living, polygamy, and enjoying life without stress, has been very vocal about his opinions on women over 30. He tells men to avoid dating them and instead choose younger women, who he believes are easier to get along with.
His bold and clever posts have upset many women, but they haven’t had much effect on his stance or actions.
To push back on critics, Agyapong insisted his poll’s sample size of just over 3,300 is a “statistically significant sample” out of his over 100,000 followers.
Traditional polls have sampled far fewer numbers and extrapolated for larger populations, muting the criticisms against his methodology even before they start.
