I'm Not Mad You're Not Dating A Black Woman
whothehellisedenhansom:
By: Eden Hansom
I personally DON’T CARE who you date.
It is what it is. People are attracted to whoever they’re attracted to. I myself have no problem dating out of my race and I HAVE. However, I DO NOT and WILL NOT put SPECIFIC race or ethnicity on a pedestal because of generalizations!
As usual, with my group of friends, we were having a...

Let me make this clear for all of my friends…
I cannot fit your schedule. I am a soldier, and soldiers do not get to clock out. Even when we are not on duty… We are still on duty.
I cannot be moved according to your agenda. I work with spy planes… In a top secret environment where cell phones are not allowed. I cannot text you at your convenience. I have to report.for...

It's HARD To Find A Good Girl....So HE Says.....
whothehellisedenhansom:
By: Eden Hansom
So I HAD a NICE conversation with my guy fellas….and by NICE I meant a lot of LOUD talking over each other to get each other’s points across. We’re family, that’s what we do. Anywho, the topic got off our best friend’s birthday (what we were all together for) and on to the subject of “It’s hard to find a good girl THE RIGHT GIRL.

with the tagline, “What if Michael Vick had been white?” And then spent a good amount of the article questioning whether a white kid would have been introduced to dogfighting in the first place, instead of the more painfully obvious question of why is Michael Vick getting more heat for dogfighting than Rapist-berger is getting for repeatedly raping...

What do women need?
karbarkalediscope:
Affirmation. Lots of it. Soft, tender, thoughtful, unexpected, meaningful, heartfelt affirmation delivered with no sexual demands attached. That’s difficult for a man. A man usually sets goals and generally acts only when he is after something. Our men will score big when we make our goal unconditional affirmation—no strings attached. Our aim is to make our women feel loved,...

feminist slut: Please trust me when I tell you
healywu:
I have read this sentiment put more eloquently, but I am going to try to repackage here nonetheless because it keeps coming up in my life and I have only recently articulated it adequately in my own head.
This post is about privilege, specifically male privilege. The heart of the matter is when you don’t believe us when we...

I’m tired. I’m tired of getting my ass grabbed on the dance floor and being told I “should expect it, sweetheart.” I’m tired of getting my ass grabbed, doing nothing about it and feeling ashamed for not reacting. I’m tired of saying “no thank you” when a man comes up behind me to start dancing and completely ignores my...

“I personally don’t feel any pressure to make jokes about multiple baby-fathers and stereotypical Black jokes, because one, that’s just not my life, and two, I wouldn’t even sound right talking about those things. I’ll stick to finding the funny in the ordinary because my life is pretty ordinary and so are the lives of my friends — and my friends are hilarious.”

Dealbreaker in male interaction
ashleyingenious:
I have one sure fire way to tell if I want a man in my life in a serious capacity or not.
How he responds to my reaction to spiders.
I’m scared as shit of spiders. It’s a real, psychological disorder type phobia. I break out into hives and I scratch at myself and I cry. It’s embarrassing and I hate it. It’s my biggest weakness and it’s the stupidest fucking thing. I’m mildly...

shehateme:
I’ve moved out of her bedroom into the spare room.
There’s no indication that there was ever a man in her bedroom.
I moved all of my stuff out of her bathroom, too. I’ll use the other one.
I moved all of our digital pictures into a folder… and then buried it on a hard drive that I hardly use and made it a hidden folder, out of the sight of prying eyes… and my own teary eyes.

I AM MAN: Black Manhood & Sexual Diversity
This is a very important documentary covering black masculinity and homosexuality within the black community in America - with a little insight into Africa too. Black masculinity has been constructed and deconstructed by white supremacist schools of thought as something that is a dangerous threat to the wider public. You only had to...

pistols-and-koolaid:
This isn’t a Black problem. This is a problem across the country. With divorce rates being so high, young men and women have no idea how to be in a relationship.
The thing is, IT’S NOT THAT COMPLICATED! Being in a relationship is easy, it’s people who make them hard.
We try to make relationships out to be something like open-heart surgery using a spork....

I went to see The Help.
3-fifths-human-5-fifths-awesome:
I wanted to like it. I really did, but I knew what it was going to be before I even sat down. I knew it would be nothing but another movie to assuage White Guilt. I mean, I love Emma Stone. Her bathwater? Might drink it. But that’s not the point of this post…

shehateme:
And it’s all displaced.
Listen, stop worrying about false requirements. Stop worrying about what race and what qualifications and status and all of that. I’m not saying love broke but marry rich. Not at all. What I am saying is have you own idea of what you want out of a life partner… then figure out what it takes to get said life partner and DO IT.
Stop relying on all of these...

THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES We can continue to reap profits from the Blacks without the effort of physical slavery Look at the current methods of containment that they use on themselves: IGNORANCE, GREED, and SELFISHNESS.

A Misconception of Black Women.
kittyinthecupcake:
This is a subject my sister and I got on not too long ago.
It seems as though men, whether you are Black, White, Asian, Hispanic, whatever you may be, think of all African American women to be “freaks.”
Let me expand on what I mean by “freaks”. Such as when a person says I’m looking for a “freak” or a “freak in the sheets”. You assume that’s how we all are and this is how...
