So basically you are just butthurt cause you are not high value. Nobody cares what you might make in a few years. You ain't making it right now and don't make the cut off. It is what is. Nothing wrong with being a medium value male. Most people don't start at the top.

And if you are not looking to get married why do even care about this discussion? Do you.

you got me figured out breh:blessed:

Ngl, the shyt is really offensive to me. I worked for this shyt. Didn't fukk bums, never slipped up and got pregnant, several languages, amazing conversational skills, ballet, modeling school, academic camps, the best schools, best internships, best networks, ivy league, maintained my college weight, and these bytches think they can compete?

Stop

it's cliche but honestly i think for the younger women especially the internet plays a big part in this. a lot (most i believe for < 30) have used online dating and probably got hit up by relatively HVM, but confuse being put in the rotation with having marriage prospects. its never been easier for young women to have sexual access to HVM hence the inflation of expectations and delusion. what do you think?

This shyt put you in a whole different class. I been fortunate enough to be around people like this because I am one of those dudes who just have a variety of different type friends(and the I know some of them from the gym. A lot of them are cyclist or are into crossfit). They don't fukk around for real for real. Dudes wont even look a chick way if she aint in shape. You wont even get to use your conversation skills if you have them.

I try to tell all my homegirls all the time. You not ready for that type of dude. The cars and shyt looks cool but thats a whole different world. They think you can go to Red Rooster or Corner Social to scoop one of those dudes up:mjlol:

Exactly, one of the most frustrating and eye-opening experiences I ever had was when a group of 40-55 year old veteran Black attorneys came to talk to me and my classmates and after telling us about the grit and grind we had to do turned around and asked us "How can we help you, because we are not really sure what we can do given our schedules" :gucci: I'm like how the fucc you been practicing and navigating Big Law for 20+ years and don't have a replicable set of systems ready to implement and transfer?!

I've had my boys who are Ques and Alphas be consistently underwhelmed by their older frat brothers' inability to help them navigate the corporate environment.
In my experience these older dudes just don't want to put other brothers on. They get off on being the only black person in these spaces. I've met plenty of them over the years in IT not sure about other disciplines.

:lolbron: Guess so. I knew what i wanted to say but didn't know it would come out so strong. :mjlol:

Maybe, but hvm have always had access to pretty girls. I think it's the Pretty Woman/ Cardi B culture making it confusing.

:mjlol: And them nikkas are all poseurs living on credit. We used to live right over there, shameful displays of faux wealth. Im not randomly drawing conclusions, moms is chatty and i be with her, so i get all the business. Suffice it to say, ppl living crazy. :francis:

people are trying to blur the lines between a wife and a hoe. If you are selling yourself then do your thjng, but nobody cares about your thoughts on marriage or dating because your role in life is to be a hoe.

outside of that, for men and women you have people putting in demands but not putting in the work to deserve those demands.

Thats bc wives are too expensive and hoes are too cheap. We need courtesans, esp at this stage of empire.

I tell my little cousins that you dont go to ivy leagues for the education (although great) you go for the NETWORK and ability to have a different worldview and perspective based off your peers.

One wanted to go to Howard over Dartmouth and my family deaded that shyt QUICK.

This is something that isn’t spoken about. Some of them like the “token” placement and aren’t very open to putting young brehs on.

Instead of pulling each other up like other races do. We watch each other struggle, then once they’ve made it, then we can “associate” with them.

Dudes get they ass beat, graduate and working at enterprise car rental in a front line role not even back office. Thess black networks are all a farce and when you actually in the networks its a pissing contest opposed to “how can we take over together”.

That’s one of the reasons I never gave into the “frat” culture. A lot of us don’t have power in these high level corporate environments. The networking can only go so far.

Kev talked about his business circle moving from job to job together. I’m not sure how likely that is, for all 7 guys to jump from company to company.

Some say joining non-black frats (and educational frats like business school fraternity) are more beneficial for black men :sas2:. Know a breh who pledged sigma chi at UC Berkeley and his network has gotten him FAR.

Married to a sista also :mjgrin:

The average black women don't want to compete with other races of women for black men cause they don't think highly of of black men . It really is that simple .
