@Peruvian Connect said a lot of shyt we learned was a lie. My boys who were "Lame" growing up, are excelling in life. Beautiful wives, lovely family, making good money and the whole 9.
We're taught how to get bytches..
My guy friend's who were getting "bytches" got the wrong type of women and ended up with baby mamas or did jail time for domestic violence.
We're taught dont be a p*ssy, never back down..
I knew a guy who got murdered infront of bare people. you'd hear about how his boy's were tough guys' about the gunplay. But when the group who murdered that guy, threatened their families; now their quiet as a mouse and I never hear about any of them.
Just the other day, I gave my guy's man a ride to get some food. He's close to 40 and he hung out the window to tell this lady "damn you sexy as fukk"
Everyone looked at us like
I got second hand embarrassment. Never in my life have I ever heard of that approach working.

I can only speak for myself, I know I was late but there's a lot of dumb shyt I let go, when i entered my mid 20s. I realized a lot of that shyt was a lie, and now my life's way better.
I've been involved in mentoring with the youth and I try to promote healthy lifestyles. Hoping they don't have to go through dumb shyt I had too you know.
