"Black men are arrogant.....Get over it....Black men always gonna flex"

[Rawtid]

"Flexin" has nothing to do with the indivdual and everything to do with the audience. If your audience isn't impressed, it's not a flex...ever. You can still be an accomplished person.

Be confident not arrogant.

Define flexing? Is me driving an Audi flexing? Is me having the latest Samsung phone flexing?

People are quick to point out the nice things I have rather than me boasting about it.

 

[KamikazePilot]

I’m not a huge flexer but I’m arrogant as fukk fukk any of these people when a nikka shining he should act accordingly bum bytches get no say

 

[Roid Jones]

@CorporateTrapper is a million per cent right, if someone is shining that should motivate you to work, even if the thing they have is not your desire the success reached is what you should be looking at.

All the "Stay humble" and "Act like you've had it before" type of people secretly enjoy and seek the praise from others about how humble they are anyway (even though they won't admit it). So it's not really much different.

False

I vauguely remember PimpC teaching 14yr old me about this….

Same here.

Also, flexing and treating yourself to nice things are not the same....something people misconstrue. This is not to say that flexing is a bad thing. Go ahead and cook.

One breh may have a new porche to show off to others. Another breh may have that same model because HE likes it. Damn what the rest of the world thinks.

Exactly.

I don’t think flexing and arrogant have to be the same.

I feel arrogance is a feeling of you’re better than someone. Being condescending.

I feel you can flex with out being that. Dressing nice, pushing a nice whip, having a good looking woman on your arm, beautiful kids in a family photo on your desk. All a flex. Not necessarily arrogance tho.

Absolutely.

Myself I'm like the most "non-flex" person (which obviously has a lot to do with self-esteem, but that's another conversation). That being said when I see a breh with a nice car, style, etc..."flexing", I'm all for it and will be like But one can do all that indeed without being arrogant.

He's wrong. I'm not arrogant and I don't care to flex.

Regardless, who cares about people being arrogant and flexing? Many of them same folks be broke anyway

A person flexing, being humble or arrogant has no direct impact on a person's life so WHY do some people care so much?

Envy and jealousy. We live in a materialistic, narcissist society. People will go to great lengths just to get money and fame.

I'm glad I don't care about none of that shyt. A guy walk past me wearing $2000 shoes and I won't look twice, won't think about robbing him, etc.

" Flexin' on these nikkas, every bone and muscle
Steady taking shots, but never hurting numbers
Even then, y'all don't worry nothin'
And I'd like to give a shout-out to my nikkas with a game plan
And shout-outs to my nikkas with escape plans
Uh, twenty bands, rain dance
We could either rain check or we can make plans "

 

[Diondon]

I just be minding my business tying to exemplify black excellence.
How people feel they feel
They can't beat me up

 

[Henri Christophe]

Its in our blood to flex..... and I'ma flex till the day I die

fukk being humble.
