Dear ‘Broke’ Men: Don’t Punish A Woman for Not Wanting to Date You (EBONY)

[Mr. McDowell]

There are a lot of lonely people in the world. It's kind of sad you have to write click-bait articles like this just so you can put food on the table. I'm not going to get on some high horse because I don't see myself as any better, but at least I keep my neuroses to myself.

 

[Umoja]

Did people read the article?

Because don't know if my comprehension is failing me. It looked as though she was more critical of people taking themselves out of the game because of their presumptions and the bitterness they are left with.

EBONY has been dead for years. This is now a zombie.

Sad state of affairs. There was a time when Ebony had real ground breaking articles back in the day.

shyt been down hill with articles since the late 80s and has gotten worse every decade.

Sadly this is all print journalism and it has gotten worse with the internet and these hit pieces disquised as think pieces.

Truely the dumbing down of a generation and generations of americans by the print media.

If you think I am lying take any big time historic mag or news papee and look at an article they made say in the 70s or 80s and compare it to an article that they made today.

The shyt is night and day.

 

[Originalman]

I get what she’s saying and what she’s saying ain’t interesting and could easily be followed with no shyt

Cliffs.

Not all women who seek a man with bread are gold diggers. No shyt.

Sometimes a woman just isn’t interested in you and she doesn’t owe you an explanation. No shyt.

Some people don’t know when to stay in their lane. No shyt.

The headline is click bait. Don’t bother to read it.

Ground breaking journalism that even my 4 year old could right....

Ok but how exactly is a man gonna punish me for not dating him? Just block him..

I swear some people like to bytch about the stupidest shyt.

 

[True Darkseid]

i love these articles like black women are all successful multimillionaires or some shyt

PREACH!!!

On another note does anyone say I want a broke bytch or nikka to get with

 

[Serious]

Willing to bet the amount of her student loans that this bytch broke as hell. Why are people getting dumber instead of smarter with all the instant knowledge we have at our fingertips?

$50,000 a year after taxes and an $900+ apartment, $350 car note, utilities, $400 student loan payment, credit cards, 580 credit score and 8 people sharing a motel room on a trip to Essence Music festival does NOT make you any less broke than the dudes you tryin to humble.

Ladies if this is you: STAPH IT!

 

[Cat piss martini]

i feel the same way about cute bums.

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

As long as they keep that same energy ( they won’t BTW) then it’s whatever.

 

[Problematic Pat]

Dear pregnant with a bum nikkaz baby. You've officially lost in life and securing that advanced degree will not save you.

Right. People make up shyt to be offended at to get some attention.

What alleged "broke" dude is "harassing" her? I bet she hasn't had real positive interaction with a man in years.

That's what I got out of it, too. But the article headline makes zero sense in that context.

I didn't read the article b/c of the goofy ass title.

 

[KneeGrow.]

I'd be willing to bet that broke men aren't reading Ebony articles admonishing them.

 

[yung Herbie Hancock]

The men who are mad about this are entitled as fukk. Women dont need to struggle with you because you're struggling. We should all aim to date ppl on our caliber or higher.

Is that you in the AVI . I wish you luck.
