[b]8. No one says “baby” like a Black man. It’s true for me. There is nothing like hearing the richness of his voice when he says “Baby, it’s gonna be okay,” or “C’mere, baby.” There’s just something about it. Something in his tone is a honey-laden embrace that puts me at ease in his arms. 7. When I look at him, I see the image of the amazing Black men who were father figures to me. When I look at him, I also see the man my son will one day grow up to be. In that instant, I fall in love all over again. 6. He relates to me and my experiences because his are similar. There is an unspoken kinship there – a host of things I don’t have to explain to say why they shaped my views or actions. Could I explain them to someone of another race? Sure. Have I? Absolutely. But it’s different when you share the same viewpoint and face similar obstacles on a personal level. 5. Brothas, no one rocks a suited-and-booted look like you. When you walk in a room, this woman takes notice. And let you smell good too?! Whether you’re working that DeBargian forcefield of caramel or a succulent shade of mocha, no one struts like you do. LAWD!…which brings me to my next point… 4. Y’all offer such a vast array of looks: from T.I. to Morris Chestnut, Michael Ealy to Idris Elba, El Debarge to Taye Diggs…it’s like being in a candy store…Yum. 3. I’m so proud of you for your courage and strength to face what this world slings your way. Let’s keep it real: this country has a vicious history of racism and savage behaviour within its own borders. That said, I’m not one for excuses at all. Get up, get out, and do something. Make it happen. We don’t face what our parents did in the 60′s. We do, however, still have to deal with the deeply ingrained after-effects of slavery. In this country, Black men are vilified before being celebrated in the media. 2. Sex appeal. No full sentence needed. You were all waiting for me to say it anyway! Maybe it’s that whole rhythym thing…maybe it’s size…maybe it’s the fact that your penis isn’t pink…O_o I dunno. It just is. *winks* 1. My face is your face. It’s truly that simple. To speak against all Black men as a whole is to speak against myself. To malign every Black man to to slit my own wrists. Nope. Not gonna do it. No self hatred here.[/b] |
It's very normal feel this way after watching such a film. They are in defensive mode. When I watch films or documentary where a particular group of people are being treated cruelly by another group of people I feel very upset too especially documentaries where children are being molested and abused. I feel like getting the abusers on the behalf is this victim. |
@switdick... Disagreed! ![]() |

caesaraba: (Almost) everyone digs good looks. Men and women alike. That said, experience has taught me that although the beauty of the 'container' matters, the content of said 'container' matters more. https://www.cool-smileys.com/images/42.gif |
Gbawe: By the way, this message is for all the wannabe 'pan-Africans'. Get involved and don't just chat crap online while judging others via taking some pretentious moral high ground when your contribution to improving Africa is a big fat zero !!!!! You folks talk a lot but I don't see your contribution on the ground where it matters. If your talk translated into real effort then Africa would be better today but the fact is that you are all firmly ensconced in your diasporan bases , talking tediously, while 'whitey' you malign so much is probably doing more for your own rural community than you ever can/will.This is exactly what we are talking about. People like u who are so negative. You turn people off instead of encouraging them. What if we are currently just talking cant u encourage us? Sick and tired of people like you. Do u think by talking to us like this because we have ideas would encourage us to pack up our bags and go and contribute Some people talk because all they need is 1 or 2 people to get behind them and encourage them. |

usermane: The tip of the iceberg is men aren't looking for the nice girl,they are looking out soley for beauty. A lot of men are so superficial that they value looks far above manners on their scale of preference. And since a lot of men are after just one beautiful girl at a time,each man tend to see his wealth as an ace in hole to lure the lady to him. Hence the girl is surrounded by gold mines and have no choice but to dig and mine from the largest mine deposit.Hmmmm Well said ![]() |

dmcdad: Wow... This got me ruminating... Op, in as much as you are right in most of the points you outlined, yet, there are some iota if not more than that of fallacy as regards this piece of yours. I would agree to some extent that men are one of the contributing factors that tends to spoil a lot of women with the all-money mentality today, but even at that, men are not entirely to be blamed.Agreed. dmcdad: What happens if a girl is the principled and very disciplined type that doesn't get gifts just anyhow? In as much as men get you gifts every now and then is not a yardstick for you to base your aim of going into a relationship or whatever on money. That would be a misconception. Yes! I agree a lot of men flaunt these stuffs to trip them girlz, but even at that, a lady who knows her worth hook, line and sinker cannot be bought no matter what.Yes and No. It all depends on the strength of the lady to resist the temptation. In anything and everything humans can be persuaded. Otherwise we wouldnt bother with arguments, talk shows, protests, especially media which plays a big part in framing peoples mindset. Let me ask you a question wasn't it media that promoted gold digging and the flaunting of wealth? What makes you think that the human perceptions can not be altered? dmcdad: The fact that the last three men a girl dated gave her gifts it's not or should not be a yardstick for her to be requesting from the current boyfriend. Tell me, if a guy comes on here to give a complaint as regards how a girl dumped him or something, and how he had suffered similar fate from the past three relationships he had been, and because of that he decides to generalize that all girls are the same, what would you say? I presume your answer would be that, despite the fact that three or four girls did hurt him, that is not to say that every other girl will hurt him. Gbam! This is contrary to what you said. Like you said, because she had dated three guyz probably her past three dates), that did buy her gifts and stuffs, that means she would also expect that from the current guy. This would be very wrong because it would mean generalizing that all guys are indebted to act as such. Do you catch my drift?I would not blame him because as humans it is normal for us to become defensive if we keep experiencing pain. That fact that he is generalizing that all women are the same doesnt make it true however due to his experience he has come to that conclusion. Like i said, it's all in the mind. YES the same thing can apply to female. Haven't you heard of girls who like to be beaten by their male partners because they associate it with love. Twisted right? Thats the mind for ya.... dmcdad: Men like to show off quite alright, but you and I know very well that, there are few (rare gems) that you can't flaunt your wealth for and succeed. You would agree with me right? Now, this means that, the fact that a man flaunts what he has is not enough reason for you to have that fishy kinda mindset that the guy is suppose to pay or be an office to you.Do you think it's enough reason to tell you that I was unfaithful with you blah blah blah due to the fact that I saw a woman on the street who was unclad? Would you accept that as good enough reason to justify my unfaithfulness? C'mon! I know it plays a role in the seduction game, but that is not an excuse to be unfaithful, right? Same applies in that assertion of yours.Agreed! I didnt state this as a fact. I said if a man flaunts women get the perception that... you have the money and want to spend it. Just as if a girl dresses and behaves like a s.lut the man get the perception that she is cheap and easy. dmcdad: In a nutshell, in as much as I agree with you that men play a contributing role in helping to shape the minds of a lot of girls today, that is not to say the men are entirely to blame because it is still up to the girls involved to choose to fall or not. After all, there are girls that will NEVER receive any gift from you, no matter what you get them. Are these same set of girls not humans? Or do you want to deny the fact that they do exist?Agreed. Good for those girls but we are not the majority. All my friends think im crazy. I still think that men are more responsible. It started with a man giving, it would end when men stop giving. You have to understand that women love to receive (and thats OK) but a line must be drawn, if men do not draw the line women would be happy not to? dmcdad: Bottom line: Men are not to blame for female gold-diggers but the females involved. Men play a contributing part in flaunting or offering gifts or the likes, but it is always at the disposal of the said women to accept or not.It is natural and OK for women to accept. Men have to draw the line when it comes to flaunting and giving. I personally would not tell a lady not to receive when given because its natural for women to do so. ![]() |
pleep: *Sigh* when i started reading this i was really impressed, my eyes glazed over with pride and love.... suddenly i was standing naked in the savannah with my mixed breed princess... her African bootie trembling in the wind... Then i got to the last part, and realized it was all a joke.I'm for real. Its shame that you dont think you are worth this pleep. Of course im for real. |
oraclefemi: so when we see a girl we like, we should throw all our hard earned wealth into to the trash just because of a relationship, pls bore me ..i am waiting . A well trained girl will see beyond material things, when you find her you will know , until then if you discover a gold digger, please your desires and move on.. simpleGood for you! As i mentioned and highlighted this is my "my observation" |
dmcdad: Abi oooo. I am just wondering... It seems the Op didnt take alot of things into consideration before making this thread, else she wouldnt have come up with this thread cos it's.... just awkward. Gosh!I wish you guys will read the whole thing before you comment. I said some... and that it was increasing. I didn't say all. The problem here is, it is becoming an epidemic and would continue to increase if something doesn't change it may even become a norm. Like any other the thing it can become a culture as it continues to grow and it would be harder and harder to find guy who don't flaunt their wealth and girls who don't gold dig. |

ojemzy: well lets just say it takes 2 to Tango, if women can resist d lure of materialism, then it makes it easier for men to start doing the right things.Lol Read my signature... be yourself!. If you have to spend ur savings to get a girlfriend you may as well visit a classy brutal . |
DJX50: Sweetgurl, if dats you in your pic, I wouldn't mind flaunting my greatgrandpa's properties for you to come and dig my goldSee what i mean... @DJX50 is money all you have to offer a girl u think is beautiful. Think about something else that is valuable about you and let that be what you use to draw women to you. Fortunately, i don't have a price set on me. Thanks for the offer though . |
Blackteeth: When I remember p-square's "chop my money" and similar Nigerian songs with the same theme, and also remember posts from Nairaland guys saying all it takes to get women is money, I think guys are RESPONSIBLE for making Nigerian ladies gold diggers.[size=18pt]THANK YOU[/size] https://www.cool-smileys.com/images/207.gif |
I know females have a part to play. I just think men have the power to change things. |
lalaosky: yep you're right but in naija, it has gotten to a sorry state where without money, you'll hardly find a girl of your own as evidenced here too in NL where you'll see advice such as " GUY, GO MAKE MONEY AND THAT CHICK WEY DEY SNUB YOU GO BE YOUR OWN"I read ur cooment and yeh both males and females are to be blamed. But males even more... because i think they have the power to change it. The level of gold digging in Nigerian is beyond any other... lol. Sad ey? |
@K2039... Well said! Thanks for elaborating on point #4. ![]() |


Some people talk because all they need is 1 or 2 people to get behind them and encourage them.
Well said
