I still find it crazy that folks got clowned for dating online in the early days and now its the norm.

Times be changing.

12-15 yrs ago due to lack of access to internet and smartphones still being niche folks treated the internet like it was some alternate world seperate from reality thus everything on it was not a reflection of “real life”. You still see some flabbys on here with that “its
Only on the internet talk”

People still don’t want to admit that marriage doesn’t mean what it once did.

The next couple of generations will put the nail in the coffin.:yeshrug:


Edit: And this is coming from a breh who has NO PROBLEM getting women…I like my space and doing what I want to do.

been there, done that with the nagging, jealousy, mood swings, and hypocrisy
When I made a thread about this, I caught mad heat

Quit with the motherfukking respectability politics and thinly veiled “black people are lazy” “millennials entitled” rhetoric. This shyt is simply the result of a systemic problem that has shut black people out of the economy and reduced our total wealth to zero.

Coming from an actual black man with a college degree - these jobs aren’t fukking hiring. I put in hundreds of applications. Go fukk your self, this system is rigged.

No one gives a fukk about your “I had a 4.1 gpa and worked two jobs” having ass. You should have the fukking integrity to actually point out how this system is unequal and there are MASSIVE barriers in place for black people to actually succeed and build wealth. Argue with the statistics.

Be happy we’re still alive in this bytch and not going crazy.

Facts. These fukking black neoliberals don’t give a fukk tho. Respectability ass negroes.

They’re one bad medical bill and firing away from the poor house. Mfers think shyt is sweet until they see this system implode on itself.

Income inequality is crazy along with the cost of living literally out of control.
Hundreds of applications :picard:
What did you get your degree in?

This is actually really bad news for Black women and Black children. I realize that a lot shyt on the thecoli boils down to some simple minded points of view, but there is a bigger issue in that story and it involves Black women and Black children. A single man can work a bunch of bullshyt jobs and eventually scratch together enough money and economic resources to get into the middle class if he were really motivated to do it. Regular dudes don't really live lavish lifestyles except for fronting purposes to get women. Otherwise a single dude by himself that works a couple of jobs can easily get into the middle class.

The reason this is bad news for Black women and small Black children, is because this is a perpetuation of single family households that continues a trend of perpetual generational poverty. Black women in the lower socioeconomic category that have children out of wedlock and rear the children in a single family home literally have no way out of the lower socioeconomic status. That is horrible and that also means that her children are growing up impoverished.

I concluded years ago that African Americans need to go back to fixed or arranged marriages. I realized that people used to hate that shyt, but in many cases that was the only way that women had husbands and children had fathers which was necessary to lift family units out of poverty. It is sad, but we may have to go backwards in order to go forward.
That's not happening. Whites know what's happening and they double down to make sure your plan doesn't happen. Go to LSA. Does it look like they want marriages with BM much less arraigned. The only reason why it happened in the past was America needed the workforce. Now they don't need us unless it's for prison or their entertainment.

Just someone who claims to be well read, you need to learn your enemy. They don't have these visions for us

the reason your argument is flawed is because the internet was still niche during those times. People still considered the internet a different reality from the real
World thus it was a niche group of folks partaking in this stuff thus it being “popping”. 10 yrs ago Tinder had way less users yet was more “popping” because everyone was there on the same page (to hookup) now its a cesspool

Yes, your right internet is not what it was ten years ago. My premise still remains the same which is that men and women dating habits haven't change and won't change.

Pretty sure if I look up the stats, it will indicate that most married couples currently didn't met through the internet. That they met through more traditional means of dating. We have different opinions and most likely won't agree on this aspect.

But what I said about the business world and marriage is an unwritten rule, a lot of door do not open for single men.

the stats for now wont come out until the next few years. “The traditional” lanes are dying. Men are declining going to college, men arent in church, men who are in HS and college cant compete because chicks have men nation wide in their DMs flying them out on 50 dollar spirt flights. I think you are in over
Your head, and just want to dismiss the observations of men im the dating market because you still hold hope for whatever reason.

This happened to me in grade school exactly once in the 2nd grade.

Lil boy went out of his way to ridicule me and push me b/c I had a soft heart and was touched by the story of Charlotte’s Web. Little b*stard pushed me when the teacher turned her back. Got ME in trouble b/c I got caught nearly retaliating.

Went home crying about it to my mom and dad. My mom was gonna go blank on the parents. But my dad told her to let me handle it first.

My dad turned me into a young initiate of the ways of the petty.
He told me I needed to master the art of fukking people up and never getting caught.

So I started doing shyt to the dude. Stayed behind to lock the door b4 going to lunch just so I could take his permission slip out his Trapper Keeper.
He couldn’t go to the zoo field trip. Laughed in his face as we lined up to let him know I fukked him over.

Pulled his chair out from under him at the activity table and got other people to laugh extra hard at him.

Put milk in his seat and said he peed on himself.

Torn up his Pokemon cards and left the pieces in his desk.

He asked his mom to move to another home room. Never said anything to me again.

Meanwhile I was playing innocent, little honor roll student the whole time.

POE #pettyovereverything

Keep ur hands to urself little fukker.
:ufdup:

Thought there was something off key about you. Was this boy black or white? :mjpls:

Seems as though you've been a passively aggressive piece of shyt for decades.

Not really lol. There is a reason while american marketing is the way it is, but do your thing

A lot of Americans are a paycheck away from being broke. A lot of Americans have a lot of debt. Single women do tend to spend a lot more as a demographic though—no argument there. Look at it this way, at least it won’t just be old woman dying alone as cat ladies—men will too, except with maybe dogs(because it’s kind of weird for a man to have a lot of cats). It’s somewhat sad as I believe most people desire companionship and love. If there’s anyone in STEM and robotics that wants to build robot companions for lonely singles, it’s about to be a good hussle.

Not sure what you mean about doing my thing—i am in a relationship. I like love and dikk.

Do I value marriage? Not particularly. But I know this is official evidence that the institution of marriage like many things in this country is now becoming a thing for those with money. The system will crash soon enough when people wake up. In the mean time expect to continue seeing this happen across many areas of our society that used to be attainable for middle and working class folk to achieve. Not much you can do but focus on getting what you want out of life—that and sit back and watch our society morph into another Japan.

let me ask, why be in a relationship with marriage not being a goal? I assume you want the flexibility to not be held accountable for the duties of a wife, yet still not be lonely and have access to sex?

im not saying this to attack you but more so it seems like you confirm why desired men dont even want to marry modern women. Literally no incentive when we can have sex access without it.

You are one of the most full of shyt users on this site.

You talk about what you did as thought your life should be used as a measurement for what others should endure and accomplish.

You look at a black man receiving support from his mother, and you stick your greasy nose in the middle of it to try and put a stop to his mum having his back.

In following posts you go on to admit the support you received from the government and the initiatives that don't exist today.

Your post was dumb. On the outside, you don't know what people are going through but you're an arrogant, judgemental piece of shyt who doesn't skip a beat when it comes to throwing shade on black men.
No the award for sanctimonious smart/dumb nikka sticking your nose into shyt that you loud and wrong about goes to you. A parent and I were having a very good conversation and your silly ass just couldn’t wait to rudely inject like anything you had to say was worth a damn. :mjlol:And stop turning everything into a damn blk man victim story to garner male solidarity support for your lameness.
:stopitslime:
Because I gave several examples of blk young adult men AND women doing the take advantage of parents shyt which I don’t agree with. I talked about my life to highlight that what I did personally wasnt special, but was the result of programs our sorry ass government has gutted which, along with the economy is part of the reason we are in this bind. But the answer isn’t to encourage young blk people to stay at home where resources are ALREADY strained you fukkin idiot, and partake in a parasite culture where grown black adults live into perpetuity with older generations of blks. We don’t have a culture in America to support that lifestyle and never have. So taking other cultural norms and blindly applying them to our own won’t work. That’s how you get mom and dad working three jobs to make ends meet for an American raised boy OR girl who becomes a entitled freeloader.

And by the way, you loud and wrong idiot, they’ve done several longitudinal studies TRACKING how successful the whole “stay at home until you get on your feet” bullshyt is and it actually RETARDS adults ability to launch beyond the home instead of helping them.
So let’s dead that shyt real quick

https://www.urban.org/sites/default...oung_adults_living_in_parents_basements_0.pdf
First off we already ARE doing this and it’s not helping.

“Although Asians and Hispanics are commonly perceived as more likely to live with their parents, black young adults live with their parents at the highest rates, which may be because of the lower incomes of black young adults, on average, compared with other racial and ethnic groups.”


Secondly, several flawed hypotheses were tested including erroneous claims such as “staying at home Will help young adults save money” or “give them a headstart”.

In reality,
“Those who lived with their parents at ages 25 to 34 were the least likely to be homeowners 10 years later.”

They ran a regression analysis of multiple variables on a data set of individuals they’d been tracking longitudinally for decades.
And here’s what they found:

“We find that those who were renters and owners are still significantly more likely to be head of a household 10 years later than those who lived with their parents.”

“While 25-to-34-year-olds who live with their parents are less likely to be a head of a household and are less likely to own a house after 10 years, maybe those who do become homeowners have the financial ability to buy a more expensive house or put more down using the money saved from staying with their parents. However, median house values are not significantly different across the three groups (figure 17). In fact, those who lived with their parents have slightly lower home values than those who owned or rented 10 years ago. Those who lived with their parents have lower mortgage debt than those who rented, but the $6,200 difference is close to the $5,500 difference in median house values. On the other hand, those who were homeowners 10 years ago have the smallest amount of mortgage debt, as they have had more time to pay it back. These results hold even after including the control variables in the regression below.

SOOOOO, instead of uselessly trying to gain internet brownie points with other lames who don’t like Booksnrain with infantile ass talking points, fukking read and take the hoemotion out of your responses before you engage me.

This is the third time across several threads where you lost damn script trying to engage with me only to look like a try-hard buffoon.

Boy bye.

Seems like you’ve been an ignorant bytch who ran away from FACTS to try and post irrelevant shyt when I pulled your bytch card.
If you’d just read more, bytch less…you wouldn’t have to look stupid.

Damn you going out sad.
And lol!
I’ve always been sweet but savage when tried.

That was one of my favorite memories. He learned that day!

I actually edited that post and it explained why I’m
In a relationship. I love consistent std free dikk from someone who cares about me. I like love and companionship. But I don’t want to live with a man. I like my space looking the way I want, I like having privacy, freedom in my own place, etc.
