@Meta Doll You - "You have to date around especially when a particular group of men are known for being time wasters.. They will "date" you for 50 years and still kick you to the curb like nothing happened." Response - A pedestalized group of people (men and women) are serial marry-ers. Elizabeth Taylor for example got married about seven or eight times I think (eight times to seven different men). Then you have David Foster, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Larry King, Martin Scorsese, James Cameron, Melanie Griffith, Nicolas Cage, Richard Pryor, Kelsey Grammer, Pamela Anderson, Joan Collins, Kenny Rogers and probably a bunch more married several(four?) or more times. The only one that's well known from a particualr group is Richard Pryor. I wonder do people consider getting married and divorced several times time-wasting??? I don't see that big a difference between serial marriage/marrying and serial non-marital relationships. They're BOTH part of the modern USA culture. Also long-term common-law type relationships where people are together for many years even decades without formal marriage are probably practically better than marrying and divorcing three, four, five times. Let's not act like there aren't men AND women who are common-law married and happy...doing just fine, and from various demographics in this modern western USA culture. My point...or at least a point I could make is marriage in today's/modern society is NOT the end-all be-all. A person can be quick to marry you and JUST AS quick to divorce you. Marriage has overall lost a LOT of its meaning in this overall culture...this western civilization and culture which was NOT established by a particular group of people. I am curious for people's answer to this question(s): What is marriage, where did it come from, what's its meaning, and what's its purpose? The answer could be in general or as it relates to the modern europeanized/euro-centric civilization and culture...western culture we live in/under.

IamAneika+ The only thing you should be 'shaking your head' at, is your obvious capacity for self deceit! There is hardly a "black" man who has ever "dogged" Serena by "insulting" her facial, and other physical features. On the contrary, Serena arguably became just as well known off the court BECAUSE of the appreciation of those very same physical features by "black" men. For years (up to the present) Serena has been FAVORABLY featured/referenced in just about every "black" publication and online forum. On the other hand, European Americans have insulted/degraded/mocked/ridiculed/dehumanized both Serena and her sister from the day they dared to step on to the tennis court. Her physical features, & even the sound she makes when serving the ball, have been compared to the animals in National Geographic by so called "white" Americans!! Those of European descent hate her so much, that they cheered for Naomi Osaka, even while Serena represented the U.S.A in a championship match;.......after which a European newspaper cartoonist went on to further ridicule her in a degrading/dehumanizing fashion. If you hate those of your own ethnicity, then grow up and simply say so. Do not make "black" men guilty for the crimes of "white" ones. There is no need to engage in delusion and self deceit in order to create some seeming 'justification' for YOUR own craving for pale skinned association. If you wish to date outside your "race", then simply do so....... without the use of ridiculous/laughable tales!

The black community is headed down a rabbit hole that will be hard to come back from. I see men saying that black women are not worth marrying and black women saying the same about black men. I don't know where this hate towards each other is coming from but I fear the damage will be irreversible.
@GoddessBlueYozakura72 жыл бұрын
It's a bit obvious where the hate comes from. BM collectively are at the bottom economically. They don't posses wealth nor generational wealth when compared to ALL other races of men. To offset this issue many BW try to over compensate by giving him a pass on being a builder, protector and provider usually by masculizing herself. This means she gets the dreaded strong black woman label that's supposed to hunt, kill and gather all while reciting scripture. Problem is that as much as many BM don't want to do the hard work, they also want her to be sweet, feminine and submissive. Those two things don't really go together. It's like someone wanting a monogamous roommate they get to sleep with that only has eyes for him, meanwhile he want to be polygamous with any race of woman preferably a woman that has the most powerful race of man. Most BM look at WM as the most powerful so getting one of his race of women is seen as obtaining a form of power. So it makes sense that once the do have some semblance of wealth usually through " entertainment" because they rarely level up any other way, they tend to want their female counterpart to be an example of that wealth. Poor BM do the same thing but their WW usually is an overweight/ obese type. Still for many of them it beats an overweight BW that shares their feature, skin color or hair texture and reminder of who they are. Now the hatred for black women stems from their black mothers and the lack of black fathers. In hid mind it's her fault his father left him behind yet if you notice as an adult most BM don't go looking for their adult children.It's when they're on their deathbed or needing a kidney do they get people to shame their abandoned offspring into showing up to give to a person that was selfish in ignoring their needs when he was healthy as a horse.

Not to a woman, anyway.

Interesting. Kevin samuels preaches that Black men that make more money or high earners aren't cheaters, they exercise their options. Why is this the Black man's code? How do Black men considered themselves of value when the only way they determine themselves resourceful based on external items such as women and money? It's very concerned 😟

I have a good many white men that I was with who dated me to use me because I had a job so my money could be theirs or so they thought. Many were non-committal as well. I dated some other guys of different races and more of the same thing there. I’m married now to a man who loves me. I decided to go for that not the color of the skin. I’m hoping that my marriage will stick but am not sure it will 100% because my husband is not an easy man to be married to. Marriage takes a great deal of work on both sides.

Honestly, I'd rather he be honest and up front about not wanting to get married than see him betray the trust of any woman. Not everyone wants marriage and children and that should be ok no matter what community of which you're a member. Big up to him for being a good human being and not causing harm and distress to any of the women he's dated by marrying them only to run out and cheat. I feel that's commendable in this day and age.

Well said! I’m with this all the way. If someone doesn’t want to be married, why shame and blame them for it (no matter their age, etc.)?
