funny, a BROTHER wrote an article on this very subject for theroot.com; check the comments section:
Black Women Should Be Like Ayesha Curry? How Many Black Men Are Willing to Be Like Steph?
It was a joke
His sister brought this up years ago
But usually those type of dudes that tell BW to get their shyt together are educated, professional, responsible, don't have kids unless they are married, etc. Yet BW try to deflect by taking about men that ain't shyt.
Matter of fact, how many black men would be willing to get married at 27 with a $150K salary in Memphis
You're so wrong
All white females care about is looks. If you're not good looking, white females wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire. You could be a poor POS CAC with a record but if you're good looking, white girls will bust it open
The OOW rate is because some girls get finessed by guys with mouthpieces but black girls actually care about dating guys with comparable personalities unlike who're girls
You truly believe Russell is making Ciara come outta pocket?
After my day at work I see this thread is still rolling...lol
Hopefully one day women with Halle Berry complexes will see the light. And hopefully one day more black men will get themselves together.
Good post. Why hasn't it received more daps?
Same could be said for Coli dudes who talk about black women though. Some of them are confusing their market as well
Peace
I'm 30, and not in Memphis (because I like my life and I like smart people), but this is basically me.
Like I said, I've seen PLENTY of available and successful black women at the professional events I go to. Problem is, they still measuring their worth by the same stick men measure their worth, and that's not how men measure the worth of women. On top of that, they still date mentally like they are 18. They still think physical characteristics are the number 1 thing to determine their interest, meanwhile they are 36 and their looks are fading.
It's an entitlement complex because they feel that since they "did everything the right way", that some 6'4" millionaire should walk through the door and sweep them off their feet, and they are legitimately holding out for that.
I did things the right way (mostly) too, but I'm not waiting for Halle Berry to come through the door and suck my dikk everyday. I live in reality and know my professional accomplishments has nothing to do with my personal life outside of the means it gives me to provide for myself and others.
How many 30 year old black men living in a large metro with a nice 6-figure salary would even think of marriage at this point? Not the majority.
