Before the rise of podcasts and social media, were most squares completely unaware?

[King Poetic]

Yes

Growing up in the 90s and 2000s , dudes had to go about they life with school and work and eventually start a family with a regular chick

Social Media let the dudes let their angry and hate out now and shame baby mamas or skanks who been ran through

Hell and to your point in the modern era things have even changed drastically since Covid (2020) to now. Even the early days of dating apps (2013) to now. Instagram (which started as a simple photo sharing app in 2012/2013) to 2015/2016 when they introduced stories and longer video clips then reels.

I remember dating pre social media and women were different. Different mindset. I agree anybody claiming things are the same as back then are being dense or really wasn’t outside between the two eras.

Men and women have always been narcissistic but social media introduced a level of narcissism, selfishness, instant access, shortened attention spans that humans aren’t accustomed to dealing with, especially in dating.

I wasn’t around back then….but weren’t dating issues still prevalent back then? Remember Patrice O’Neal was around in the early/mid 2000s, Tom leykis, even the movie coming to America touched on how crazy a lot of ppl were.

I think most men were naive. I can’t really compare cuz I wasn’t around but if you go on any corner you’ll hear even OGs complaining about their ol lady.

Hell men used to get mail ordered brides and hoes from Russia

the numbers bear it out looking at the sheer number of single and childless men and unmarried women. It's like saying income inequality isn't a factor because there were rich people and broke people 20 years ago.

Fair enough. I can’t argue the numbers—the decline in marriage in general

Women really are dumb to be saying this stuff online, and that cac psychologist is a literal psycho! He has that dead stare that sociopaths have. No joke.




But you know what, it is what it is.

There are a lot of women who received bare minimum treatment, only got calls/texts at 2am, only experienced “Netflix and Chill” 🫠 who never ever knew that all of that meant that they are nothing but a quick nut to men.

Now they know some game as well




I guess everyone has a fighting chance now.

And how would men be clueless when weve been operating under psychosis,trapped in a pimp culture by way of hiphop?


No,men were acting like wanna be pimps,so now you have half baked,and half stepping hos.

Only thing men are doing now is continuing to carry on as wanna be pimps. Thinking they have what it takes to put these hos theyve created back in pocket. But you know what they say about Pandoras Box. And sadly this era of unserious men definitely arent built to close it back. This is a job for righteous black men,unfortunately we are far too busy building to truly tackle this

 

[SheWantTheD]

Really need to stop giving whores a platform.. but then I saw Angela Yee and I ain’t een’ surprised.

Shorty got a roster of nigg@s and not one of them got shorty a birthday gift

Talk about hoeing backwards

Bro, you’re in here admitting you’re just trying to run through women, don’t want to do any work, and get sex from as many women as possible. You’re not better than the next guy.

Dating is a competition. Attractive women aren’t giving it up easily to average men with average salaries. So if you don’t look good enough, or have enough money, you’re out of luck. You’re telling on yourself. You posted a meme that certain other men don’t have to spend to get sex. You just want sex too. You’re not waiting to shower a woman in love and affection. You just want to smash too. No woman has to stick to a certain set of rules to fukk. If she lets him fukk easily, and not you, that’s her right. Maybe she knows there are certain men for fukking, and certain men for husband material. You don’t fit the fukking role, so she is “giving you a chance”. You didn’t impress her. There are 10 other average men who offer the same thing you offer, but more. Is she the superficial one when you too want an attractive partner? I keep the emphasis on attractive, because you can probably pull a Gabby Sidibe, or young Sherri Shepard, but you don’t want them. Yet you want Megan Good, and prime Lisa Raye to want Anthony Anderson in Big Momma’s House, because he’s a nice guy. It works both ways, but that woman who cares about aesthetics wants her equal. You don’t want your equal. So how is she the problem?

Most men, including myself have had a woman, or women we kept around, because they were cool, and down to fukk. That’s literally all they were good for. Some of those women would have treated me well, but I just wasn’t feeling it. I’ve never had a scarcity mentality when it comes to women, so I didn’t settle down with them. That doesn’t mean anything was wrong with them, I just didn’t think they were my wife. That’s how it is. Someone can have good qualities, but she’s not it. The difference is women try to turn those men who have made it clear they don’t want commitment, into their husbands. They hold on, because it’s rare they encounter men they are attracted to. No, it’s not always a thug.

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

Keep thinking you don’t have to do anything to get attractive women. Keyword: attractive

 

[Jazzy B.]

Yes.

The average man is raised to view women as genuine, innocent and honest.

It would not cross his mind that a woman could possibly be deceptive and dishonest in her nature.

 

[Ahadi]

Yep.

social media created a way for men to exchange notes. Too many examples.

But before that, if you were involved in the entertainment circuit (since high school / college) doing photography, DJ, promoter, security, drug dealer, you kinda got a gist of how women moved.

Thank you!


It’s always funny to me that certain men don’t think women are allowed to leverage their looks the way yall can leverage your money (or looks).

I’m not advocating for casual sex, but your point that attractive women have options and can exercise them always seems lost on certain men. There are a bunch of women who are overlooked by their physical counterparts everyday.

Looks matter, first and foremost then your charm

 

[Umoja]

I'd say the internet has made people less switched on. Look at all the cornballs who genuinely thought it made them more secure men to not be bothered by a woman they were dating getting kicked down by another man.
