Help me solve a debate!

[theicyjedi36]

My friend and I have been arguing for a while now. Who is a better wife: Penny or Leah? We are judging by personality and stuff like that, not what they give you in-game. I think Penny and he says Leah. What do you guys think?

 

[Aine]

Leah.
Penny has some stuff hapening, I dont know, she looks like a gold digger, and also, what was she doing with Sam in the tree? She sometimes sound selfish too. I just dont like her.

 

[Uzzlegorf]

A battle of two redheads... Tough choice, but I go with Leah.

 

[callmeglaiza]

From what I've seen so far, I vote Penny only because I too adore children and enjoyed my one year as a preschool teacher while livingin in South East Asia.

 

[LolitaRo]

Leah. She was already independent doing her own thing in her own cabin fully adulting. In fact that’s the main reason I chose her. I felt like she was moving forward in life with or without me.

Krobus.

Thread's over.

 

[Magically Clueless]

I voted for Penny since i like her more, though i think maru is best waifu of them all

 

[Journi]

I would have to go with...Penny, she's more of a housewife type of person than Leah is.
:) Either pick is a good choice.

My next run is going to be penny only because I adore her 14 heart event. <3

Considering the poll is sitting at 7-7, I'm not sure we've been much help :P

 

[Newkirkstone]

Threw my hat in the ring for Penny.
1. Dealt with Pam her whole life.
2. Goes out of her way to teach the kids of Stardew.
3. Isn't friends with Elliot.

Leah! She doesn't have much going on, she's creative, hard working and open minded. She's happy in nature and she is a craftsman, meaning she can help out with some hard work sometimes!

 

[Hannah's World]

Leah - she's easier to befriend and isn't quite so picky about gifts she gets.

 

[Chaya7]

I've only romanced and married Leah. I barely pay attention to Penny. So maybe I'm not the best person to ask. But there's a reason I've barely paid attention to her. She seems kind of pathetic, weak, and bland. Leah as a wife is strong, helpful, independent, thoughtful, and loving, while still maintaining her own interests. Somehow I just can't see poor little Penny - sweet as she is around kids - filling those boots.

But really, I guess it all comes down to what you think makes a good wife, doesn't it?

 

[Septima]

I voted for Leah because of the arguments presented here, but I have to say I like them both equally (and considering the poll, it seems the community does too!). Leah's almost universally considered one of the best, but Penny has virtues that make her hard not to love. It really does come down to preference

 

[SnailWeen]

Leah, because she is a bisexual art wife who likes cheese, wine, and nature

 

[Potatoes]

Leah, because she is a bisexual art wife who likes cheese, wine, and nature

My dream woman!

 

[Hollyfox]

I go with leah because I think her character is more interesting. Also I'm biased because she was the person i married in my first save file;

 

[Maher]

Married Penny in a 1.4 save file. It feels like getting out of Pam's house is too strong a motivation for her and the codependency with Pam just always hung around in the background.

I've had two farmers marry Leah. Her baggage is gone once it's dealt with, you don't have to walk past it every time you pass the bus stop.
