Great points. And yes, I agree that some folks go off the rails. I already got expect to have to deprogram my oldest when she graduates from Spelman. She's already leaning towards rah rah feminismPerhaps, but I have plenty of acquaintances who were born into that socioeconomic background and had terminally poor pickers. I saw it in college (I graduated from Morehouse and my wife from Spelman) to even now as a retired Economist. A person's character can be influenced by one's socioeconomic background, but it is not determined by it. No matter your birth station, having self-respect first is the first key to creating a deep relationship that lasts in my opinion.
Most of what that father, in the story, said to his son was perfectly fine. Just some of it was a bit shallow and could encourage simping and a relationship scarcity mindset in his son. The father should have told his son what sort of women are worthy of that treatment and how to determine that. He did clue him in on the listening suggestion, but he left it too open by not actually telling his son that he needs to listen with discernment.
Anyhow, all women are not worthy no matter their socioeconomic background, just like all men are not worthy. It is just as important to know how to choose well as it is to treat the person you have chosen well.
My wife and I are going to Spelman's 2023 Founders Day. It will be 30 years since we graduated. I can't wait to see up-close how different the AUC is now. Atlanta was some of the best years of my life. I thoroughly enjoyed 89-93.Great points. And yes, I agree that some folks go off the rails.

I'm just saying folks like us don't get triggered by stuff like this. The only thing that stuck out to me was the whole you're lucky to be in her presence thing.
