Can we get a list of accomplished black females who have not found a "good black man"?
Based on this thread one can assume that most black women are single?

The world would be such a better place if people were color-blind.
Or if we all wore emerald goggles, word to The Wizard of Oz.

I know this is all on us, but that's what it sounds like she's implying. Maybe we think she's implying that because we're guilty? Or maybe it's because that's what it actually sounds like...who knows

i know she's not saying that but its fact that she feels the reason why black dudes think that (white = right)
its like a lot of black women think we're obligated to be with them.
she needs to realize that this isnt the past.

The whole 'white women going to the successful black guy" talk is ridiculous... I know mad broke black dudes with white girls.
Why can't people be in love though?
Why is there a 15 page thread talking about some fat hippo's opinion?
Maybe if some black girls DIDN'T have nasty ##! attitudes all the time, or have that "can't nobody tell me nothin" mentality, SOME black guys would be in relationships with them.
Not me personally, because I don't look at race... but I have some friends who don't date black girls just based on their attitudes....

I just don't see that implication there.
I don't exactly follow ... but if I can take an educated guess -- you think she's attributing that most black men are seeking white women b/c of the white=right idea, correct?
and that's exactly what she's NOT saying.... she's saying that no one can tell just by first glance....but the "wince" is the reminder that that idea IS indeed there.
She's not bashing black men -- quite the contrary, she's bashing this country's awful past, and the lingering effects it has on black men today.

If somebody loves you forreal it doesn't matter... I can understand that she's frustrated because if you do truly love your race and your racial identity you don't wish for it to be threatened... but people are going to make decisions based on more than race. Can't hate her for saying whats in her heart though

Agreed with the second whole-heartedly. Couldnt have said that better myself. Black women act as if black men dont want them...its just not black men, its all men, dont make that generalization about "why dont the brothers love me". Stop walking around with that greater then thou im loud, im proud, im strong and indepedent attitude and maybe it would get you somewhere. Point blank, stop walking around like your @##@ dont stink. This isnt all black women, but the majority. Thats why we're having this conversation to begin with. So Jill Scott, @%++ you.

If there were no generalizations this conversation would have never even started, and that's no fun. Take them for what they are and try and make your points around them.
Ready....FIGHT
im not you

Wince? Get over herself. I understood all this when she first said it and I still stand by what I initially said. I am NOT responsible for the fact that you can't get over that. It stings? why? cause something happened in the past like that? just another dramatic outcry for attention with no real way to address it. Shes speaking just to hear herself talk. Fine, speak out if it helps you but you're not proposing anything to change the situation other than think that you're entitled to something. This in essence makes her entire monologue incomplete.

Its not just her words.
Its the sentiments of many black women that a brotha has to deal with everytime he is with a light skinned girl.
What may be just "her words" to you are actual experiences to other people.
What if it's not the past. What if it's today, she's walking down the street and overhears some group of a certain ethnicity calling the first lady of the United States a "hoodrat" and "ghetto". Something I've heard and seen alot of over the past year or so.

Im not going to quote the responses, but IM NOT YOU, exactly.
There's a difference between Black Male NTers just saying they prefer other ethnicities, but when you guys sit here & say all Black women have attitudes is beyond me. Are you telling me that you've dated every Black woman in the world?
And since all Black women DO have "attitudes", what do they have them about? Black men cheating? Black men being lazy? Not working around the house? What? The fact that the divorce rate is so high & they're trying not to make it higher is the problem here?
Black men expect too much out of Black women when they never look within SELF. But I blame it on the ignorance of them & the media, Black women are always portrayed as ghetto, and Black men as big black monkeys. But what if Black women saw you guys as that also? Oh yeah that's right, you'd get you a "snow bunny".
