Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by CILondon: 5:55pm On Dec 16, 2009
People are always throwing around terms like ABW (Angry Black Woman) and there is a generally held view (fairly or unfairly) that we black women are difficult to get on with.
I did start a thread that was critical of Nigerian Men and now I am going to start a thread that asks if we Black women are a hard case to handle?
So now I'm turning the heat on my own group - men take note!
My website has an article on this very issue.
What do you think people? Men and women are welcome to discuss.

Angry black women indeed. It's very much a myth. Not taking shiiit from douche bags makes you angry, I suppose.

its a myth.
Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by yme1(f): 6:36pm On Dec 16, 2009
we are all different, so stop generalizing
issues of anger differs from one person to another
all we need to do is learn how to get a grip of ourself whenever our anger botton is triggered undecided
Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by dnaija: 6:37pm On Dec 16, 2009

Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by Nobody: 6:37pm On Dec 16, 2009
Its an African American myth that has been used to stereotype Black women.

i second this comment
Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by CILondon: 6:59pm On Dec 16, 2009
The author who wrote the article on our website, I know him, and I think he has issues with Black women. Just my opinion.
Regarding the actual question itself - I think WOMEN AS A WHOLE can be very difficult, and this is coming from another woman!

She obviously didn't know that The Amaka is the username of a member on here.
Only asked a simple question, which required a simple answer. Must you always reply like this?  undecided

And they say black women are angry grin
Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by jalether(m): 8:09pm On Dec 16, 2009
it's more of a fact than a myth, most black women don't know where to draw the line btw confidence and arrogance and are constantly

trying to compete against men (I guess to debunk the myth/fact that men are better than women)hence makes them bitter

that's why I keep telling my black sisters, you aint got nothing to prove to anyone, just sit back, relax and enjoy life

I don't think they understand how that affects black men. It can be very suffocating and detrimental to one's health embarassed

Depends on what you mean by "competing against men".

And what kinda research did you carry out to determine that it's more of a fact? A myth is a belief based on general opinion(yes) but without any proof or validity. A fact on the other hand. . . You know there are millions or billions of black women in the world.

You don't need any research to tell you Italians love their pasta neither or do you, I have been in this world for quite a while and have had  the opportunity to

interact firsthand with many races of women and my conclusion is based on real life experiences. I'm not saying there are no angry women in other races

of course there are nasty people from other races as well however the bitterness is more pronounced amongst black women
Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by Nobody: 9:03pm On Dec 16, 2009
Is this bitterness more pronounced amongst black women because you know more black women than women of other races? Its just like me saying "All Nigerian men are cheaters" When infact most men of all races cheat. Because I know more Nigerian men, its more "pronounced" amongst Nigerian men wink

I have met some seriously horrendous women of NON BLACK races, so I don't think it is more pronounced amongst black women - but then I would say that, wouldn't I. I'm a black woman. smiley

Na waa! The Amaka? Trust me meh, . . They are other females here worst off than The Amaka. As far as I know, she is sarcatically funny but nowhere near worst than some specified mutated species.  lipsrsealed

@Topic,
Nope. when they say it means they are generalizing. Thats a fact! Cause trust me, they areAngry White Woman, Angry Yellow WOman, ANgry Brown Woman all around this globe as well.
Re: Angry Black Woman - Fact Or Myth? by Magz(m): 2:14am On Dec 17, 2009
[size=16pt]It's not a myth. In America especially, there are some anger issues that are symptoms of a condition known as "Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome".

Read up on it, [/size]
