What you are asking is too subjective and it relates to what [USER=2177]@Chidinma[/USER] pointed out about different views ranging from people of different clans (i.e. Ndebele, Zezuru, Korekore, Manyika, Ndau, and vaKaranga).

For example, if a woman has children outside of [I]wanano [/I](e.g. [URL='https://goldmidi.com/community/resources/mvana.169/'][I]mvana[/I][/URL]) some Zimbabwean men will argue they should pay less for her in [I]rusambo [/I]in contrast to a woman who doesn't have a pickney or multiple children by multiple baby daddies.

Another argument is the number of times a woman has been married followed by yet another argument of how educated that woman is, coupled with her cooking & cleaning skills, and finally whether that woman is a virgin or not.

And of course, the last argument is controversial because the son-in-law himself ([I]mukuwasha wacho[/I]) might not be a virgin either but deep down he expects a discount—yes I know... LMAO! ?
