This is moving the goalposts....the "state of black women"
has everything to do with socio-economic status, and their peer environment and immediate cohort relationships. You think if Black women grew up on average with 100,000$ of family wealth like white people do, they wouldnt, on average, make better decisions and have better men to choose from? You also have this ridiculous intellectual blind spot of acting as if us as black men are all out here making the right moves, as we somehow, simultaneously, fill prisons.
Black women are leading the way of all racial and gender categories when it comes to college enrollment. Guess there are some sistas out there doin somethin right! So shocking![/quote]
And see this is the problem right here...
You just absolved black women of being responsible for the state of black women...you just gave black women a pass to say "yeah it is okay for me to make bad decisions...cause I'm not white...and I didn't grow up in a rich house...and I see bad images of me on TV...so yeah I am just fukked and there is noting i can do might as well not even make an attempt..." Why is that? Why does the state of black women have everything to do with what everyone else is doing and not what black women are doing? And to split hairs here, let's say you are right...so...what are black women doing about it?
That enrollment in college thing can be looked at in so many ways that it is not worth even typing about...you tell me they lead in college enrollment...i tell you that college is something that is a calculated risk...you can go into so much debt that you can effectively ruin your life before you are old enough to drink alcohol in the US...you can spend your entire life paying back a college debt...for a sheet of paper that could lead you to nowhere...so when you tell me that black women lead the charge in groups of people who are willing to take this extraordinary risk...well
