A. Seales:I want to be with a brotha but a lot of you would rather be by yourselves. Why not commit?

I’m going to be honest...you could be a great woman (attractive, caring, good family, great career, well connected, etc), and history shows I’m still going to get bored and want something new.

I really can’t give up my independence. Too many options, especially in New York.

Giving all that up has me like

This is why men and women need to come to the table and just have an honest discussion. Like I’m not shocked that open relationships and polygamy has gone up 7% over the last couple of years. I don’t think women just wanna have that conversation cause everything would have to be on the table from abortion to women willing sharing a man with other women ...and you know the other women ....everything would have to be on the table.

But divorce rates between Black men and White/non-black women are high. A lot of those relationships don't last breh, dunno why dudes wanna brag about this.

Not only high but literally the highest. Lol

This video doesn't really support your stance. It moreso shows how being anti-marriage and anti-family leads to broke folks having no foundation in life.

While folks with education and higher incomes still push for marriage and the foundation of family. Something the black community desperately needs more of

It’s not intended to support my anti-marriage stance, but it supports my main point: the current situation isn’t simply the result of anti-commitment attitudes among black men.

So true...the racial wealth gap is clearly linked to our marriage rates and mass incarceration, among other layers

No. It's not.

As I stated earlier we have always been the poorest but a century ago we were the MOST married demographic. And the unmarried rate has continued to rise steadily even after the Obama term shrunk the incarcerated population. All of this is on black demographics. Com which uses census data.

This trend away from marriage has been occuring in most Western countries to every population.

The fact of the matter is traditional marriage no longer serves a purpose. This is a unintended side effect of the sexual revolution and female empowerment era.

So people are gonna have to come together and form a new social contract. Whatever that may be.

she's the wrong one to deliver the message

even if she's right

folks response will be colored by their dislike for her

people want the ego boost of having a person emotionally dependent on them

feel validation from being able to make a person repress their libido & lie

it really becomes the battle of the sexes in this case

men naturally are not considerate of women

it is a process of domestication

funny enough a domesticated man is a man stripped of everything that a woman naturally hungers for in a man

this artificial social construct is birthing all types of disease

it will take a natural reset for women to once again accept & value a man as he is naturally

ladies find value in yourself

not in making a man commit

we are what we are as men accept it or continue to suffer

Men aren't like women. Most Women would be happy to settle down if the right one came along but men don't work that way. They have to be ready in their own minds. I think women push the issue too much. If you meet a guy not ready, be respectful and bounce or respectfully have your fun and then bounce. A man isn't a bad dude because he doesn't want you or isn't ready.

Do you think women actually want to settle with someone or do they want to because society tells them they should ?

the only thing that can truly settle a man is death

women have to make peace with the truth

don't be happy or satisfied in a lie homegirl

women don't want to share

they want the man at the top of the hierarchy

but don't want to deal with the reality that many women will seek to receive what is flowing from the peak

dam up a flowing body of water & it dies it begins to breed illness

Both. I think it's human nature to want a partner at some point. But I think marriage is seen as a social status.

I disagree and think you're speaking from a personal standpoint and probably as an unmarried man who has no plans to be married anytime soon.
