Cardi B, famous for her hit song Bodak Yellow, stirred controversy with her latest feminist comments and her views on equal relationship dynamics. In a widely-shared video, she questioned the concept of a 50/50 split in relationships, suggesting that if a man takes care of everything, what role do women play in the partnership?

Cardi B rejected the idea that household chores like cooking and cleaning are equal to contributing to the household. She emphasized her belief in traditional gender roles, stating that men should be the primary providers for their families. She highlighted the importance of shared responsibilities in certain aspects, like purchasing a home, and criticized the internet for distorting people's perceptions of reality.
