Great points. A lot of women are thinking about being housewives through the lens of the wives of athletes and entertainers. They don’t expect much of their wives other than to look pretty, fukk and suck. They usually have hired help for all the other critical stuff.
For non-athlete and non-entertainer elite Black men, we are looking for wives who have solid administrative skills.
As a woman, can you hold down the fort while I am out there getting resources for the family? That’s the cooking, cleaning, etc.
Can you help instill values in and help build the children that will maximize the resources for the bloodline down the line? That’s the childcare piece.
Can you help contribute to and maintain the relationships among the wives of other elite Black men in our circle such that those connections remain strong? That’s the dinner party, group outing planning, etc. piece.
I dated a woman once who made good money, was pretty, etc. But, I couldn’t bring myself to take it to the next step with her. Why? She lacked the administrative skills it took to be what I expected in a wife. She had a lazy streak about her, was not detail-oriented, etc. Needless to say, we parted ways.
Ultimately, non-athlete and non-entertainer elite Black men want a woman who embraces her femininity and can get shyt done. Just being Fit, Beautiful and Inspirational (FBI), as Kevin puts it, is not enough. It’ll get you in the door, but it will not get a woman a ring.
