Why do college educated black women seemingly, immediately write off blue collar black men?

[Cynic]

I got homies who are security guards and other regular ass jobs married to colleged up Black women.

Social media got you guys heads fukked up along with most of you guys unable to know how to talk to a woman.

Nope, I can get an afro-german, afro-dutch with less student debt and more savings or an afro-portuguese
woman since I'm self taught in the language. See how making anecdote doesn't mean sh!t to
the broader question at hand ?

You also have to realize, whores don't want to get married. It doesn't matter who the man is, so it's easier for them to get with the man they know doesn't want to commit and complain about him not wanting to. It's a built in excuse. You have to stop believing what these women say.

It doesn't matter what they say. A vast majority are lying

This thread is said to be about rejected losers who just can’t get a woman now you’re saying women are the thristy ones?

You’re saying Black women are tricks for dikk like accountable commentary says?

I’m not gonna let you get away with the lie about Black women who are married to Men being the Breadwinners again hard numbers disprove this.

However Most Black woman are single so you are right that the majority of Black women are heads of Households

They’re also the most evicted but that’s another story.

I see both sides

There are a lot of black women who are single and childless in there later years that are perfectly fine getting with someone who makes significantly less than them but has good genes just so they can have kids

My two brothers and their women are examples of this

It’s called Assortative mating and it’s quite normal. Statistically speaking dual college educated partners earn more money, have a higher quality of life, better health outcomes, etc. So it makes sense that college educated Black women would seek that type of arrangement.

Personally I believe Black women are more understanding than most in terms of dating down (educationally speaking). You see how these white men have gone off the rails? Or the hard right turn those Asian men are doing in South Korea and Japan? White women and Asian women have completely shut their male counterparts out in terms of marriage and dating.

As a man, I'm not sure I'd want a blue collar worker either.

Sure, I'd date a cocktail waitress or a model or something like that but for the most part, I'm mostly looking at chicks who graduated from college.

For some, it’s not just a money thing, it’s socio-cultural. Going to college changed me and opened me up to a lot of new people, places and things. I was a very different person leaving Stanford than I was entering as a 18 yr old from Oakland. Blue collar workers don’t often have that exposure and it leads to being incompatible beyond surface topics.


Additionally, regardless of education, most women want to marry up, or at least at par, most wouldn’t feel they are doing that by marrying a blue collar dude

@dora_da_destroyer This is 100 percent true. Going to Wharton completely changed my life in ways I've never would have known. I have friends who didn't go to college and I can see how their worldview has been limited by simply not having access to the things I've had access to. I have one friend who simply can't handle having his thoughts challenged and that's something college makes you comfortable with and allows you to grow. It also forces you out of your comfort zone.......It's tough to explain to someone who didn't attend college but most people truly miss out by not having those 4 years to grow and learn about yourself before they step into the real world.

Dating market is fukked up.

Either:

1) Spend money on prostitutes
2) Go gay
3) Go overseas

On top of the fact that just 25% of BW are married anyway which is held up by Boomer women.

We really think 80-85% of Millennial/Zoomer women are sitting around manless/dìckless/no affection/no attention?

Trying to use marriage as the "what's what" on couples is outdated because the institution of marriage itself is outdated.

Have you ever truly looked into that statistic?

Have you?

Per 2024 Census data, 33% of Black women over the age of 15 are currently married in 2024:

See table MS-1. Historical Marital Status Tables

Problem is, this lowballs the marriage rate because of young folks (teens and 20s), divorcees, and widows. Even for White women only 52% over 15 are currently married.

The real number to ask is how many women get married at least once by age 40 (regardless if they stay together). For Gen X Black women that is about 60%. Back in 2014 they projected late Millenials would hit 50% by age 40 but I think that is high now since COVID and the economy fukked shyt up. Probably will be somewhere in the 40s percent

Now do this for men.

And truth be told, divorces should "low ball" the number.
