I'm in my 20s, but as i see it, if black men would think about it and be completely honest, they'd realize that a lot of the things they blame this generation of women for is actually black men of the previous generations fault. Not EVERYTHING, but just specifically, A LOT of the things they blame women for. (Read what i said carefully before u jump 2 conclusions)
How is it 24 yr old Keisha's fault (your female peer) that your OWN father didn't set up a family business, any property/houses, or even a college fund for you? Built nothing to pass down to you? How is it their fault that u had/have to do everything on your own? And is it a coincidence that it may also be the case for your male friends in the same age group? Who really dropped the ball? Who made your headstart even more challenging by not helping you as a father should?....
Your mother likely did as much as she could, likely got her education and/or worked multiple jobs, and took care of the household domestically, yet you still blame women for the way things are for you? Not the dad?
Young black men in general DO have a reason to feel disadvantaged, but it's not black women's fault. I'm not saying they're perfect, i get on them about things on here, but this is one thing that is the fault of OLDER black men, who did not set anything up for their sons.
Many black men around my age had to pretty much build from scratch. A lot of us did not get anything tangible given to us from our dads. White men, asian men, and hispanic men tend to have more help from their fathers. Not all but more than we do.
Black men dont wanna be honest about that. It's easier to blame it on women instead of just being real and facing the reality that a lot of older black men do not set anything up for us, and when they do it's usually not very much. Especially compared to other races of men and their fathers.
Many black men have misdirected anger/resentment. Instead of placing the blame on older black men who did not provide him with anything, they blame this generation of women like its their faults. It was older black men's job to provide their sons with things that will help them in this world. No its not their job to finish high school or college for you but it IS their job to help and guide you along as a man. Provide you with helpful tools in this world.
