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

Myself and my own.
dudes love to bring up KS but seem to forget he was giving the same advice to men before he switched to women. whatever conclusions yall like to project about women on his behalf can also be done for men as well . may as well just speak for yourself :manny:



And yet men didn't come to the conclusion that he hated them nor celebrated his passing. Funny that. :skip:

In any case, like others have said, personally and most of the guys I know don't care how high standards women have for their men. They should understand, however, the issue that arises with that and stop whining about it. Men understand this for the most part and no one bats an eye when he is brought back to earth when he doesn't but many women seem to have a hard time grasping this and being annoying about it. A lot of the current issues stem from this constant whining and as usual, it is biting a lot of women in the ass, unfortunately, indiscriminately.

In today's age of internet dating, the most important thing is looks and how a man presents/market himself. Black women (educated or otherwise) care less about what a man does compared to asians and whites. Most blue collar men still out earn most college educated women anyways. Women might say they do not want a blue collar man but in reality it does not matter if there is physical attraction and "chemistry".

I think the issue is that some people really love to generalize races and genders. Remember your small little world doesn’t encompass the millions of other people out their living their own lives that you know absolutely nothing about. Just stop trying to put an entire group into your small circle. You don’t know most educated black women to come to any conclusion about them. You also don’t know most black male blue collar men to come to a conclusion about the type of women they get.
If people from various parts of the country can relay similar experiences we can make a decent conclusion.

Facts. I don’t know all 20 million Black men in America but vast majority of the ones I do know across socio-economic lines don’t find Taylor Swift attractive. Pretty sure that is reflective of most Black men.

Still a very small community. You think all the comments in this thread is enough to make a generalized assertion about the majority of black people? Projecting your small environment of limited experiences doesn’t encompass enough to make a generalization. That’s the problem with some people nowadays. They think just because a few hundred people or even a few thousand people agree with them that that’s enough to speak in a general sense for millions upon millions of people that still exist outside of those you have interacted with.

I can say right now I know many educated black women that date blue collar men.. which is the truth for me and I also know college educated black women that prefer college educated men. I also know black men that don’t align with the opinion of this thread. Many black men don’t think like you all, but you can easily respond to me by saying well that’s what you know and this is what I know.

Let’s just be realistic about only knowing what we know and not knowing enough to generalize a group of people.

It really gets tiring telling someone you don’t fit a generalization and then them telling you well my experience led me to believe this like their experience equates to everyone else’s.

It’s a very simplistic mindset IMO.

You probably know like what 100 or 1,000 lol Seriously..

I don’t know about finding Taylor Swift attractive but my point is don’t assume everything is the same on a grand scale just because you met a few people that think like you.

I was speaking to being able to extrapolate general sentiments. Of course there are exceptions, but I don’t need to know most Black men to know that most Black men (keyword most) aren’t physically attracted to Taylor Swift.

How come this thread has so many replies?

A woman likes what she likes. I've seen plenty of women who like fat brehs, skinny brehs, short brehs, tall brehs, college brehs, tradesmen brehs, aesthetically challenged brehs. I dated some of these women myself.

If a woman doesn't like YOU, then move on to the next. I'm tired of these threads. It's like the lack of self confidence and worthiness is seeping through the screen.

Then if it’s just a few loud voices on the internet this what’s the problem Black people are doing fine then.

All I know is if you stick a mic in a Black woman’s face they all complain about the lack of Men, Hell you put a mic in a white chicks face she’s gonna have the same complaints.

If you say it’s cap then I guess it is then.

You’re on a male dominated board so say it in a way that we understand.

All these hoes on the internet be lying bro. In real life Black women be choosing Brehs.

That’s how polls are conducted by relatively small samples of the population

I wish I found this thread earlier cause its not even true lol



The numbers continue dwindling down through college where Black women outnumber the amount of Black men pursuing a higher education. According to a Pew Research Center report released last year, in 1994 Black men were actually more likely than Black women to be enrolled in college immediately after high school—56 percent for men vs. 48 percent for women. But by 2012, the pattern had reversed: The share of Black men enrolled in college remained stagnant at 57 percent, while the share of young Black women enrolled in college increased to 69 percent —a 12 percentage point gap with black men.

The study notes that while interracial relationships are not longer considered taboo, they are still incredibly less common than marriages within the same race.

So while white women are typically left with a large pool of educated white men to select from, the options don’t tend to be as great for Black women who prefer to date Black men.



But in a society where Black women are among the highest educated female demographic in America (in terms of post-secondary education) and only 36% of Black male students complete a bachelor's degree within six years, the dating pool drastically decreases for college Black women seeking an equal on campus.


Literally based on the numbers its pretty much a guarantee black women are marrying less educated black men.
