Serena Williams: Black Men Have Become Of Less Value

Peeps, guys in particular, I'm not a Romance section pro. on Nairaland. But I stumbled on this interview with famous tennis star, Serena Williams. I've read through her response to the questions thrown at her, and my jaw practically dropped from my head!

I will like to hear your response on her views about black guys. Methink it's herself who's had a warped experience, or orientation about black guys. She needs to be told that one.






Black men have become of less value —Serena Williams

Ms. Williams we are all interested in your new boyfriend.

There is no new boyfriend. I stopped playing with boys when I stopped dating black guys. I have a new man in my life and yes, he’s white.

So you prefer to date white men instead of black guys?

Let’s be real. If you are a successful black female you only have two choices:date outside of your race or date other successful black females.

Are you saying there are no successful black men to date?

Of course not but let’s face it, if Oprah would date outside of her race she would be married with children now. The state of most black men is so low the only thing you can do is love them. Like a poor homeless dog. You can’t expect it to protect you. You can only  offer shelter and love and watch as our neighbor’s pit bull protects his  home and family. I, unlike Oprah, am not forced to stay within those boundaries. I was born into a new generation of black women.

So Oprah is being forced to date Stedman?

All I can say is when you find a successful black women who is not married and does not have children it is because they refuse to accept the two choices. Some may go as far as marriage to a black guy but they realize divorce is inevitable so they do not have children. Or they have children with one and don’t marry in order to preserve their wealth and good credit. Oprah is one of many who silently protests being stuck withsuch poor choices by refusing to marry and reproduce but you can see how much it hurts her. She’s always giving away money to children’s charities. I hope she makes the choice to marry a non-black soon so she can have a child of her own.

But you have decided to accept the two choices?

Yes. I grew up in California around the two extremes of wealth. If I could only get myself to try the bisexual thing I would have been much happier in my relationships. Instead I dated Black men, I loved many of them but they were just not suitable for marriage. Many of them were  raised by women and had warped mentalities. So, I finally had to date outside my race. When I moved to Miami, I accepted my status and date men on my level.

What do you mean by warped mentalities?

Well, where do I begin? Many of them were raised predominantly by women and had this feminine/bisexual complex. Where they wanted to be treated like a female sometimes. For example, I would have the money & they would have the sex. I would teach them things. You know, all the things a woman likes a man to do, I would end up doing for them. Then if we would get into an argument, there would be a role reversal. All of a sudden, they would be the man wanting the respect of a king in his castle. Black men over the years have become less and less of value to black women both rich and poor. I predict in 10 years they will be obsolete. Now they serve little to no function and what little they can do, they don’t want to do.

Why 10 years?

 That’s when going to a fertility clinic to get impregnated by a sperm donor will become as common and accessible as the flu shot. Women who want sex will do it with whoever they want (girl, guy, rich, poor, white, black) and go to the bank (the sperm bank) when they are ready to have children. Even those who waited (like Oprah) will have fertilized eggs placed in-Vitro. That’s the day the secret organization of women is  waiting for. The day when men are 100% this-empowered.

Are you a part of that organization?

No. They’re a mostly white group. Plus that day for black men is practically here already. Black women are already raising 75% of the black population without a man. When fertility clinics become more affordable. Black women will be standing in line. It will be just like plastic surgery. Everyone laughed at Michael Jackson but it’s becoming so popular now, that even poor blacks are getting work done, mostly breast reductions and liposuction.
               
So do you want men to be this-empowered?

Heck, no! That’s why I am with a white man now. I want a man to be a man and I am not going to settle for less just to stay within racial boundaries. A Black man in my position wouldn’t do it so why should I. Don’t get me wrong, I love black men. My father is black, I have dated black men all my life, and if I have a male child he will be part black.

But my husband and I will raise him together so hopefully he will be a worthy choice for a worthy black female. Not the only choice, or “there’s nothing better out there so I’ll settle for this choice. When you are successful you want the best. The best food, clothes, places to live etc. I want the best man also.

And you think the best man is a non-black man?

 I think if there’s a better choice for me, God would have shown me. I am in the public so I get to meet lots of people from all over the world athletes, celebs, etc. I am wealthy so I am invited and have traveled to the most prestigious events all over the world. Out of all those people, places and events, I had to choose the right man for me. Like it or not (with very few exceptions) a white man is the only real choice for a successful black female.

Is this like the Nigerian way of beating themselves up?

Using fake letters supposedly from African American women, that puts them down?

Is this how they pump themselves up to make more and more money?

To show her they have value?

This is of course very fake.

It is an insult to Serena Williams Father who is the cause of her success. She would never say this.

SERENA WILLIAMS ANSWERS THIS BULLSHYTE


"Words cannot express how upset I am to find out that someone has deliberately attempted to ruin my reputation and image," says Ms. Williams. "I would never, ever, under any circumstance, be so disrespectful. Whoever decided to write this garbage does not know Serena Williams. It is not my thinking nor my being. I want to find out who is behind this, and have them prosecuted within the fullest extent of the law. I am hoping that there will be more policing over the Internet, in order to find out immediately the origin of this kind of treachery. No one deserves to be humiliated and defamed this way."

y r u such a pussy??

so wrong.

whether it was by Miss Williams or Not, I agree to some of it, it does make sense, whether a rascist wrote it or not, i agree, some Black men are such average, low expectations under acheiving people. Its a shame, I lOve the black man but they are letting the side down time and time again with their constant whinning and blaming every failure they have on the white man

And what makes you anymore credible?   Do you have a scan of "The Globe newspaper"? Do you at least have a website for the newspaper? Till then the allegation has been refuted as false and remains as such.

My concern is not about your agreement or otherwise, my concern is that such a comment was attributed to Serena. Its being roaming around the web for a couple of years and no one has provided any conclusive evidence that she said such. I'm surprised you saw something about it in the paper just 3 weeks ago.

I had already visited the link you provided and did not find any such article in their online archives. Do you remember the date(s) for which the paper was for so I can order a back copy or do you still have the article? Even better do you have a direct link to the article on that website if you read it online?

Please spare me that. You confirm that a refuted allegation is true without sourcing it, and then get upset when challenged.

The online source you provided has no record of the confirmation that you assert. Do you have a date for the edition of the newspaper you read?

@ Mochafella

Hold your horses, I went to the sight that I gave you. They only have the headlines posted in their archives. The Serena Article was a small article that was probably used as a filler for the Newspaper. They have a number on the sight for the Newspaper company. I am going to call the number and track down the issue that article was in.

I am not running from you or anyone else. Gooooodness, you can be a push over, or at least attempt to be.

Give me a few days. At least give me until Monday.

Free,

There are treatment programs that can help with meth or crack additions. Check your local phone book.

A person would have to be high on crack and smoking meth, to believe that blackmen who are the least likely to go outside of their race, then any other race in the world, are dating white women at a 50 percent rate.

Blackmen at any level only date white women at a rate of 10 percent or less.

And blackmen of course marry them at rates far less than that.

Rich blackmen marry black women at a rate of 94 percent.
Middle class blackmen marry black women at a rate of 96 percent.
Ghettoswellers marry black women at a rate of 98 percent.

Those are the real numbers, despite the lies always being pushed on Blackfolks.

For the same exact reason that until blacks got more power, it was unacceptable to show a blackman and woman in a movie being in love and or together.


I have a cousin, who is light as Collin Powell, who wears hoodies and winter coats, when he has his white 'girlfriend' driving him around because he does not want to hear his blackmale friends teasing him in the Ghetto, we live in.

Of course they understand that if you lack money and have 'fell off'*, you may need to call that whitegirl up and have her come give you some money to get back 'on'* but it does not mean you actually hang around the white girl in the hood. That is a thing of shame. Just get the money and the sex and dump her until next time you need some cash.

Don't embarrass yourself by riding around with her as if she actually means something to you.

Of course, I believe that the ideas presented in this post will register with many Nigerians but we can keep that on the downlow. 

good.

@ serena

I totally agree and as black person, people in general are always trying to sabotage us so we do have to be careful of we believe.

That is why I said I don't believe any of it but what we do know is she dates white men, Why is that if she adors her father? We also have to question that.

There are traders in the black community.

In the source she did make it a point to say "Don't get me wrong I love black men, after all my father is a black man" But isn't that the excuse black women give when they date outside of their race and they are trying to convince people they don't hate the black man or hate their self?

I can think of many reason why she probably did not say it but then I can think of many reasons why she did say it. That is why which side I believe is balanced. 

That is why I said she may have been flapping her lips to a white friend or or black friend so she thought, thinking no one would go back and tell but someone could have been taping it. After all it was a long very long statement an well thought out, like a intellectual conversation.

You know, if she did flap her lips not realzing a recorder was recording the whole thing, that means she can't refute it on television because it is the truth. When a source that is true is challenged, the source is forced to reveal the evidence and Serena could have been warned about that and this could be why she has not come out on the Radio or television to refute.

There are so many factors to consider, that is why I said if she really wants to get this monkey off of her back, she will come forward on a television show for all to see to say she did not say these awful things about black men.

Your belief didn't seem balanced a couple of days ago. 

someone wanted to cause wahala & he did

@ mochafella

Mocha, I called the guy back to see if he had uploaded the article but he never got around to it. He took my number and told me that he would call me tomorow after he locates the article. The number to the news paper company in case you want it is 510-287-8213 at this point that is all I can do is wait for him to call me. If he does not deliver, I am not going to keep waisting my time. He did say that the article was in the paper this past month so it has been around a month ago that I read it.
