Sunday's episode of Date My Family introduced Mzansi to Mbali, a bachelorette who was not willing to compromise her values.
While she won over most female viewers, Mbali rubbed a few people up the wrong way.
Sis made it clear she was not “conventional”. She said she loved alcohol and was super-unapologetic about her way of life and brutal “honesty”.
This left many tweeps, including TV presenter Anele Mdoda, dubbing her “leadership”. Others, mostly men, found her crass and rude.
“Late tweet, but Mbali from Date My Family was mad cool. Boys think they want a woman like that till they get a woman like that. Note, I said boys,” Anele wrote.
She said most people were touched because Mbali was not trying to fit into the “wife-material” stereotype.
“Dude!!!! It pains them to see a lady who is not pressed about being their Makoti. The Christian brother was the worst for me,” Anele said.
Why do families ask dumb shit like are you gonna cook for him as if to affirm they sending a little boy out to the world instead of a man?

Tshepo deliberately tells Mbali he tells lies in order to “Push Her Away”, when she meets him halfway ya’ll say she’s rude. She’s my legend 🤣🤣🤣🤣#DateMyFamily pic.twitter.com/wNHLHnN3wC
