Lil Lou, how do you think BB would respond to a man (black or white) who behaved this way?
Like the black man described in the article? I don't know.
I do know BB thinks most black men are players, have a smooth line that is mostly talk, just to get what they want. Black guys will say one thing and do something else.
I know BB thinks some/many Hispanic men are too controlling.
I know BB thinks most Native American men are lazy. I heard BB say Native American mothers want their daughters to marry working white guys.
Fran I guess that's why teen culture is shifting in that direction. The white boys seem to be wannabe black guys Fran, I saw this when I worked in the group home for boys. It wasn’t so much the boys wanted to be black, it was more the boys wanted to rebel and be identified with the group with few rules. They embraced anarchy. They didn’t want to work but wanted lots of money, to have power over someone. They liked the illusion of wealth and excitement, using drugs, and being someone in a tight knit group.
They were big on thinking the way they did things and thought was the way other people should act and think.
They saw how famous rappers were and identified with them. They liked calling their girlfriends bitche$ and ho’s. They liked the rappers clothing, jewelry, and that was one they could emulate even at home and get away with it. It was one of their alter egos they could act out.
Another group of boys in the group home, were the skate boarders. No rap music, more baggy clothing and the two groups hated each other.
We also had other wana-bee groups like pimps, priest trainees that wanted to gain peoples confidence so they were in control. Some wanted to be drug dealers or lawyers/judges.
A few guys wanted to go into the medical field. They had sexual issued that got them in trouble, surprise
Mojo I start exclusively dating GP so I change my "status" on the site to indicate that I am involved with someone. If anything I experienced a slight increase in the number of men e-mailing me. Why is this the case? I actually researched this on a few different places on the internet and my conclusion is that men absolutely think it is fair game to "steal" other men's girlfriends no matter what Mo, I experienced some of “Oh? she is your girl, I will step back” in my time. I never experienced the fair game thing in your post.
About the abused woman, I can relate to that. I think it starts out the guy wanting to help her then gets to liking her more and more. Then the EA or what ever starts.
I want black men. They want me. My opinion about the writer that likes black, I think she had an opinion first, hers, and then wrote the article to support her preference.
A white woman past forty is often passed over by her white-male contemporaries OH boo hoo! I overhear some picky women who don’t have much, talk about men that offer to date them, but the guy is nice but too this or that. I smell a double standard in this and the woman that wrote the article.
I hear guys say some women are so picky when a guy talks to a woman (my college experiences) she acts like she is putting in an ordering a 7 course dinner. Then, 3 months later, the guy sees her out with a burger flipper, which doesn't last.
My question, do black men have more adversity growing up and become more skilled at convincing other people they have what it takes or what the OP is looking for? In a way a slightly harsher environment is a better trained to some men and to other men it damages them? It is something like Darwin's Natural Selection process of weeding out the weak and average and the strongest member of the society gets the prizes.
