Georgina Njenga reveals why she only dates mature men above 27
Digital content creator Georgina Njenga has opened up about her dating preferences, revealing that she is intentional about only engaging romantically with men aged 27 and above, citing maturity as a non-negotiable quality, especially since she is raising a child.
Speaking during an interview with YouTuber Prince Newton on the night of Tuesday, June 3, 2025, the young mother delved into the realities of dating as a parent and how society often places women who have children under an unfair and watchful lens while ignoring the depth of emotional labour that motherhood demands.
“Do you have a problem with how men perceive women who have babies?” Prince Newton asked Georgina.
“That is a good question. The advantage I have is my type of men; I cannot date a man who is below twenty-seven, twenty-eight, or around there,” she began, before adding that what sets such men apart is their mental maturity, which, in her view, is essential when dealing with a woman who has already had to grow up twice as fast due to motherhood.
She further explained that women, in many cases, mature faster than men, and once a woman becomes a mother, that pace of maturity doubles — a reality that she has had to embrace in her own life, both personally and romantically.
“You just get to see the maturity. Most girls mature faster than men. So imagine now, when you have a child, you have to mature twice as much,” she added.
In a deeper part of the conversation, Prince Newton posed another question, asking whether Georgina feels disadvantaged when it comes to dating, and if she believes that men approach her with preconceived assumptions simply because she is a mother.
“Do you feel like, on your end, having a child puts you at a disadvantage? That people will not approach you, and if they do, they already have a set perspective in their heads of what to expect?” Prince Newton asked Georgina.
“Yeah, that is an important conversation. In the last relationship I was in, we talked about it,” Georgina responded, revealing that her most recent relationship included such discussions at its core, where both parties had to evaluate whether her role as a mother was something her partner was ready to accept and respect.
“Like, are you ready for me being a mum? I think I was a mum also in that relationship,” she said candidly, hinting that her nurturing instincts extended beyond her daughter and into the dynamics of the relationship itself.
She went on to state that one must consider the kind of man they are pursuing, emphasising the need for readiness and willingness to embrace the full reality of dating a mother.
Georgina also made it clear that casual interest is not enough, and any man stepping into her life must come with a heart prepared for blended family dynamics.
“You have to consider the type of man you are going for. He has to be a man who is ready to be a father-figure — like you have to be ready to be a stepfather,” she asserted.
However, Georgina also made a distinction with her signature wit, adding that she expects the father figure to act as a daddy to her child and also to her, a statement that left many of her followers amused at her ability to balance seriousness with levity and motherhood with personal independence.
“But still I stand on, you know, like my baby has a daddy, I am the one that has a daddy, haha,” she quipped.
