Yes.
Hell a lot of African Americans grandparents, great grandparents and great great grandparents were probably forced into marriage through shotgun weddings.
Those old people back in those days were not fugging around. A dude in those days had a decision to make. Go to the alter or go to the resurrection. The decision was strictly up to him.
Yep. Let my mom and uncle tell em right now about them shotgun weddings. Future would have been pushin daises before he fathered the 2nd one.In my family, my folks said my great granddad was at the ceremony with the loaded gun and my grandma had the bloodhound on the leash.
My grandmom was at the wedding with the slightest baby bump and my granddaddy was sweating bullets b/c my folks were known for being touched in the head.
It worked (I guess) b/c they were married for 45 years until they died.
But yeah, if you pregnant, you married in my family. Not one child has ever been born outta wedlock in my family on either my mother or fathers side of the family. And no divorce either.
We don’t do that either. Unless he beating your ass, not payin bills or touching the kids—u betta work that shyt out.

I disagree , yall keep running with this notion. A lot of dudes don't get laid simply because meeting women is hard after college. You can't fukk at the job, dating apps takes skill, and clubs suck ass. A lot of men are simply in a ditch. I personally haven't had female attention in awhile, but put me in an environment with women and I'll eventually get laid.
It really just boils down to putting yourself out there. A lot of dudes aren't breaking past that barrier, so they stuck

Truth be told it's hard for the average guy in this generation. Some gaslighting in this thread which is to be expected.
Yeah but I don’t see that really working b/c American culture has always been different. Traditionally, we’ve never had extended periods of kids staying with family. In the 1900s-onward, as soon as you turned 16-18 sometimes you were already striking out and starting your own families or joining the military or building your own house by then historically, where as other countries always had stronger extended kinships. For instance, the way homes are built in some Asian and African cultures, is reflective of multigenerational living.
Our youth haven’t been immersed in that type of expectation so that’s a hard ask and a lot will take advantage of staying at home to do nothing…while disrespecting their parents and taking them for granted.

Be careful breh
Once you go
there ain't no going back. The further you go down this rabbit hole, the less and less you'll trust women even more.I'm speaking from experience, you'll long for the days that you were naive and still had love in your heart to give to another woman.
Nikka STOP FUKKING RANTING. First and foremost.
Ya know what the hell else this generation has lost??! The art of the motherfukking conversation. So let’s start there. Maybe THATS why you couldn’t get a job. Because you lack the social acumen to maintain a damn idea in your head while entertaining other possibilities without losing your shyt.
So keep them wack ass insults behind your silly ass teeth.
NEXT, I’m the LAST person to talk about respectability politics. I’ve been ranting on this site for YEARS about systemic issues while people blame individuals.
But here’s the deal that we can’t escape. Our generation-Millenials and generations afterwards are FUKKING INFANTILE.
And that’s a direct result of the lack of training we’ve gotten in our sorry ass school systems. We seek excuses instead of solutions. We hate ANY type of authority, personal accountability, or responsibility…which is why you got so damn far in your feelings instead of grasping my simple damn point which is that our generation is like this b/c this is the way we’ve been conditioned. And while it might not be our fault…it’s still a reality!
So instead of the defeatist, nihilistic, bullshyt we consume daily from internet scammers online, instead of the shortcuts we wanna take, or the whining we wanna do and venting and scapegoating—we will have to take a hard look at ourselves and be real instead of lashing out at anybody who tells us the truth.
That doesn’t make the world we inherited from previous generations any less shytty, but our psuedo-autistic, I get my information from Wikipedia and Worldstar HipHop, work is stressful, pansy ass bytching doesn’t help.
Respectability politics…I can’t even…
I think it's about how you deal with things. I got divorced and honestly things are actually better now. Got better paying job,more self confidence, financially able to focus on decreasing debt and health wise doing better as I am focusing on me. Plus had more sex with more different women than I have since college so.
I do best when personal tragedies happen though so I know it's not the same for everybody.

I don’t believe this at all.
Not to mention how a lot be fumbling finances like crazy.
lol yeah I hate when dudes make it sound like other places are better when the men in them places have the same complaints we have in our spots. “New kid in school” syndrome is real because the folks in other countries know we dont know their culture to hold them accountable for renegade behavior.
