Let's be reality. Black feminism is needed. (no trolling please)

the whole "men should never hit a woman no matter what" double standard. their argument is that females are weaker but i feel like if we leave them unchecked when they hit a man (remove the consequence) then what is stopping them from being violent towards people? plus they should learn to control their emotions instead of hitting someone stronger than them. if the message is that they can't control their emotions and because of that we need to protect them, them maybe we should also take away their right to vote and have their own bank account since we're already halfway treating them like overgrown children.

another thing is the whole slut shaming thing. i feel like a lot of them want the perceived sexual liberation/freedom men have but at the same time don't want to lose the "lady-mystique" they currently enjoy. because giving that up means they lose certain privileges.

the entitlement is just their belief that i should do everything in my power to make them more comfortable, that i shouldn't look at them in the street if their p*ssy lips are showing in public because it makes them feel uncomfortable and i'm slut-shaming them, that i shouldn't have the right to strike a conversation with them in public because they consider it street harassment, that i owe them protection if they are threatened, etc. it's almost like the whole world should conspire to make them happier.

Good examples. Thanks.

I feel like the whole hitting thing really isn't a double standard. Hear me out...... I have never heard of anyone actually finding it acceptable to hit a man. It's simply somewhat tolerated. I don't think it's cool for a woman to hit a man. That's a no no. The only hitting I agree with are like love taps. Men are generally stronger then women. Period. That's no lie or exaggeration. Now if people were straight out saying it's fine to hit men than that's where the double standard comes in.

There's double standard when it comes to sex..... But to me that's not an issue that's important enough to be focused on. Because at the end of the day u either care about what people think or u don't.

And if u approach a person the right way u can't be considered to be harassing anyone unless she is just a bytch.
Women get harassed all the time. U know guys aren't just saying hello beautiful can I talk to u for a min.

you know what, fukk blame, because it isn't tangible. how about we just cut off all these benefits to single mothers. no wic, no section 8, no healthcare, no foodstamps, no sympathy -- NOTHING.

i'm willing to bet yall shape up within 1 generation and start picking suitable partners.

Black men have none of this. Why haven't black men shaped up yet? Where are our black business and black schools.

 

[Yup]

I bet that will do little to change the behaviour because it will not change the innate dysfunction that exist. Black women are not the only recipients of welfare btw.

because those particular men are still being coddled by women, but what does that have to do with my point? i also think dead beats wouldnt be so quick to leave their kid out there starven if they didn't know white daddy will still be there to take care of them.

but black men are held responsible, the law holds BM responsible.

what is holding BW responsible for any of their choices when y'all receive perks and benefits for the same shyt BM get criminalized for?

Marcuz, I think you should learn how to understand other people's problems. Just because black men & women don't deal with the exact same things doesn't mean black women's problems are less. Ok?

 

[KinksandCoils]

You're full of shyt, just like the lame who made the thread and most black feminist supporters. That's the problem that people har with black feminism. First you say "I don't see why any man would have a problem with feminism..." then you turn right around and say "I see a lot of negative things said about feminism...". Well if you paid attention to the negative shyt that people have to say about black feminism then maybe you'd understand why people have a problem with it. The truth is that you don't really want to understand folk who have a problem with it, this is just your passive aggressive way of trying to shame those people. See the bolded. "The only men who could possibly have a problem with black feminism are no good men who treat women like shyt". FOH

You seem overly aggressive. So tell me what your issue is then? How is feminism personally affecting you? Or how does it affect men?

a hungry stomach and living out on the streets would change that dysfunction women would definitely vet their partners a lot harder under those circumstances.

So black women are responsible for everything wrong with the black community?

 

[Yup]

Men are deceitful, and say and do a lot of things to get a girl to sleep with him. Once the deed is done then his true colors show through...the only assurance is abstinenxe which both men and women refuse to do.

i agree with this, not trying to imply that.

hell, some could argue 3 hots and a cot beats slaving to provide for a family w/o the man present.

nah, white people are still responsible for everything wrong in the black community. black women just keep it going.

And they'll still find a way to bash black women if this happened on a major scale.

"black women think they're too good for sex now"

 

[Yup]

No it wouldn't...there has to be a willingness to acknowledge and make a cultural shift. Plenty of third world places where there is no welfare people still engage in destructive behaviour.

And black men are victims of white supremacy
