Woman Trends After Gifting Her Father Tyres For His Birthday

A young woman made news after gifting her father a new set of tyres for his birthday. Dimpho M Sono trended on Twitter after posting a photo of her father with tyres tied with a bow, an unboxed phone and flowers, with he caption ‘Happy Birthday Dad’. With the common belief that women are poor gift givers, followers described the gift was described as practical and thoughtful.

Dimpho said there was a bit of a back story on why she gifted her dad the tyres.

“I scratched his front tyre two months ago while driving his car and in the week leading to his birthday, the same tyre got a puncher just outside our gate. So I decided for his birthday I am getting him three,” she explained.

She added that the gift made her father happy since he had planned to buy new ones at the end of the year and he now didn’t have to dig into his pocket.

“He was happy because even before the scratch he had been talking about getting new tyres at the end of the year, so that was a relief for him.”

Tweeps praised Dimpho for her thoughtfulness. While most paid attention to the tyres alone, some commented that she went above and beyond buying him a phone too.

Another user said that it was evident that men were tired of easy gifts such as boxers, ties and socks.
