I never understood why a woman would keep a child away from his/her father because he can’t pay child support. Some men lose their jobs or have financial setbacks. Why should the children suffer? I had a childhood friend who’s dad would always come around to see her. Now this man was broker than broke. He never had money. He had 6 daughters & no sons but he always came around & was there emotionally for his daughters. He would hug them & play with them. I use to be jealous of my friend even though I had a father who was paying child support. I’m my dad’s only biological child & my dad had money. My dad was in the military but I didn’t to get see him too often, maybe every 2 years. And when I did , I had to share him with a jealous stepmother & 2 step brothers. I love my dad but I didn’t start hugging him until I got in my late 20s. My jealous stepmother prevented us from being affectionate with one another. As a result, I grew up with low self esteem & sleep with older men to get love. Even today, I struggle with self worth. Even though I had more than my friend financially, she was better off than I was. Anyway, I don’t even complain because I know my dad loves me & at least I had my father in my life because a lot of kids in my neighborhood didn’t have a father at all.

This is why “black people” need to separate from white cultural norms. “black women” have been indoctrinated to think that a man’s position is to provide only. The men get these Jobs and are led away from being emotionally connected to their children, listening to the woman who is often led by feelings instead of reason and logic. Raising children is more important than money. Money is a tool , that’s it. It is not something to place above connecting and bonding with family. This is why it is so important that “black men” be led by Yah’s wisdom and principles on living this life. Listening to white men and “black women” tell them who they are and what they’re supposed to be doing to take care of their families is not it. “Black men” are the leaders who are subject to Yah first and foremost.

Bob Bey trust me black women are not the problem

[@oskartgrouch8757]

@@princesscherry-top5989 Not at all. Bob probably didn't even listen to the video. This woman's rhetoric is being pumped up because she offers absolution to weak excuse filled men. Getting an education and taking care of yourself makes you lonely and more ignorant, and not a more attractive partner? A lot of her nagging is beyond a woman's control, e.g. weather or not a man choses to raise his children, decides to be in a committed relationship, or what the government is doing - women don't have control of that. Some of the men in the video were not mocking and nagging black woman, but the majority were. This is just strange to me. Cognitive distortions.

[@trudy_triad]

@Markus Harris I think the murder rates between black men and black women are more or less equal if not that there are more murders of women than we think. Just that men's murders are covered more in the news. That is why there are movements like 'Say her name' and even that is not on the mainstream.

Thank you for bringing up this topic again Dr. Shahrazad Ali was very popular with Black men in the 80s when she first published Black Man's Guide to the Black Woman. She was very controversial here in the Black community: in general, Black men loved her while Black women, generally,despised her! Now that I am a lot older, I can really appreciate her contribution. Thank you for re-introducing us to the valuable contributions of Dr. Ali. Yolanda Hernandez North Carolina USA

[@seekeroftruth2523]

This woman was telling the truth and ppl hated her for it, smh. Trying to make her seem "extreme"/crazy. Far from it, but many ppl reject the truth because they'd rather live with a comfortable lie. And the ones hating the hardest are our own ppl, treating correction like a personal attack. They don't want to be taught right, preferring to continue living wrongly. Parodied her on In Living Color, making her seem like she was promoting the abuse of women and slandering her character. I'm so done with folks treating denial like a virtue. If you can't handle the truth move out the way so the rest of us with brains can soak up that knowledge.
