This is a question that has shown up on my timeliness with many women answering in the affirmative and saying that yes, black men oppress black wok3n, socially if not institutional lyrics.

I disagreed with this assertion and all he)) broke loose. So I've decided to ask the Coli. But first let me refute some common arguments that feminists ar3le using to postulate the notion black mend oppress black women:

Black males are victized more by black men than any other group. The same is true for white men in that white males are victimized more by white men than any other groups. Since we don't--and neither does rational society--call white men oppressors of white people (in fact we call white men white people's leaders) for victimizing themselves more than other groups, so we shouldn't apply different logic to black men and call them oppressors of black men for the same reason.

The same logic applies as much to white women and white men who mainly commit crimes against them as black men and black women.

2) Black men oppress black women through epithets and I'll teasing

Black women do the same to black men, so if black men are oppressive for saying something about black women, then black women are similarly oppressive for saying things about black men. I dont agree, actually, that Tit for tat, while I'll advised, is oppression anymore than calling someone an a$$hole is oppression.

3) "Black men are socially opppressive to black women"

Black men don't intentionally make some black women or anyone scared or intulimidated or silenced by us. If some black women feel this way, it is because they lack social fortitude and power, not because black men oppress it out of them. Black men are no more to blame for some black women feeling oppressed under our gaze than men are to blame for a bird flying away in fear when humans turn to it or a bad football player feeling downtrodden because the other guys on his team are so much better than he is.

If the bird or football player have anyone to blame--it is not black men or football players of humans-- but themselves for what they lack. Suffice to say, it is not black men's fault some black women feel oppressed under when said black women have every way to make themselves better.

Didn't read but when a black woman walks into the room or into my eye sight I look up and admire her blackness/beauty, smile and keep it movin. I don't know any other race of men/women doing that. This divisive rhetoric you hear is just that.

of course we do
were just so so....masculine and and.....toxic:scust:

Masculinity is a part of black men's being, like having a dikk. If masculinity, black men having dikk, or being bigger, frightens or makes black women feel small then nl they have no one to blame but God and their own failures. I've seen female bodybuilders with more presence, garner more respect, etc that men. So if black women want to stop feeling oppressed, they need only stop blaming black men for existing and get to work on improving themselves.

I don't believe black people have the power to oppress one another. Now, are their double standards between the sexes?....yeah but that is how it's always been. Is it fair? of coarse not but it is how it is until it changes.

Sexism as it exists today in black America isn't even oppression. Black women are treated better by society than black men and give more than they deserve.
