Why do topics geared towards black people always talk about black males separately from black girls? I just don't understand that?

Yeah I kinda thought the title of the article was odd considering it's also risen for black girls . I guess they emphasize black boys because the rise has increased more sharply in comparison to black girls.

Aren't you suicidal? Get the fukk out of here. :camby:

Anywhoodles, these kids don't have fathers in the household, terrible communities, diminishing college and career prospects, they don't get any respect or care from society (increasingly not even by their own women) and the crushing weight of white supremacy all over them. Who wants to live in that crap sack world? Black people are living in a dystopian society.
I think that disrespect goes both ways. I don't see blacl men valuing black women neither. It's just bw are not killing themselves at astronomical rate.

That creates tension between the sexes.

You raised an amazing point here... So many Black boys and young Black men make "slow suicide" decisions with the belief that: they are going to die young anyways, going to live a shytty impoverished life so why cherish it, or nobody gives a shyt about the hood/me anyways so fukk all consequences

I know I didn't expect to make it to 25 :mjcry:

Could be a father issue,mothers not finding strong male presence for their sons but I'm sure someone will quote me out of anger and twist my words.

Yes. Not having a father or strong male figure does all kind of damage to young Black children.

No one wants to talk about this.

This fatherless generation of Black children are all fukked up in the head. Which is why we have the exponential growth of the underdeveloped minds epidemic in the community.

What? They been talking about this, and from my experience it isn't true.

I used to think not having my father around made things harder, but I only said that because that's all I heard. From rap music, to the church, to the media. It was when I started thinking for myself, and observing everyone else around me, that I saw that theory didn't make sense. Yeah, as boys we need men to guide us with things like sex, how to deal with all the energy we have, but having good character knows no gender, its just a character trait.

When I realized this, its when I noticed a lot of my issues, and a lot of the people around me, came from our mothers, including the girls. That's when I asked myself how can someone who isn't there, cause you to do destructive things? It makes no sense. The only way that can happen is if the mother is blaming the father, directly or indirectly, and you pick up on this, and now its all the fathers fault.

After I realized this, I started noticing women raising their boys in a certain way. They raise them to be weak. When I write weak, I mean to either be straight up soft by spoiling them. Or they are too hard on them, and the boys grow up thinking being a man is not crying, and all the dumb shyt I hear some women say being a man is. The way they say it is "stop being a punk". Or they say things that plays with the child's head like " what do other people do", "what will the other kids think". Women are master manipulators, and in our case they played the men to not even see the bullshyt they are creating. The sad thing is, its hurting them too.

Again, this is hitting mainstream America as well. This is why I can't get involved seriously with a chick who has kids, as soon as I say " don't do that" I'm the bad guy, and they tell me to get my own damn kids.

Social media fukking the game up
Yeah, I think that's making things worse. Now, if you don't have the clothes, girls, and other things, in the inner city you are considered worthless. It was like that in the late 80's-90's, but nothing like now. The shyt is ridiculous.

I was listening to Star on his YouTube show, and he said he noticed shyt going down when hip hop started making everything about the gear, and how cool you was. When I think about it, I think he is right. But notice how it all comes back to the women. Men ain't getting fly for each other, and women ain't getting fly for the men. They are doing it to impress each other, they know they can get a guy somewhere down the line. Women want to impress each other more then for men.

I truly believe when our women wake up, we will grow, and be a powerful force in this world.
