In my culture , and Tanzania as a whole, its okay to live in your parents house at whatever age, as long as you are staying in the same city and are not yet married. Infact they make it quite a big deal when you are moving out (getting married) because the man has to come to your house with his people and respectfully ask to "remove"you from the house and take you to his
So in this case, there wil be quite a big ceremony, celebrating this milestone.
Single women living on their own are in fact scrutinized and alway Been identified as promiscuous just because there is no man to manage and out things in order in the house.
Please put in mind that this is a non millennial type of thinking and unfortunately os how most people in my country reason, a woman without the supervision of a man cannot live on her own.
For a Man, if he is financially stable and to cater for him self but still chooses to stay home is in my opinion okay, as long as he is not being a burden(big baby). His reason could be as simple as saving money on rent, and other expenses. Understable and also depends on how the parents view this.
But for a man, still hustling and trying to find his path, i think staying at home is further crippling.
The comfort of being provided with everything might weaken the sense to see the need and urgency of being self sufficient. This may be harsh but i think its true.
And arguing as a millennial, i think women of this age, we want independence, and one way to achieve that is not staying at home. Being on your own and survive, making ends meet.
It's a no no for me @purpletanzanite. ✌

In that age, you should be responsible enough to stand for your own. Our Parents are just there to support us, and of course we also need to support our parents too.

Its very similar here in the Philippines. Most single women or men at 27 or even more older than that still lives with the parents regardless if he or she is stable or not.
But for me if you are 27 and not single, he or she should move out because you can't have your own family and still depend on the parents, that must have been considered before even starting a family.
