Single Motherhood by Race

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

You got to have adult conversations before you have sex imo. That's been my approach at least. I don't think it's anything wrong with casual sex, but you can't just let anyone knock you up lol.

There’s a whole thread with half the men agreeing it’s understandable to lie in order to get sex. You think most men are honest about our intentions? And women can lie about being on birth control, or claim they can’t get pregnant, just because they’ve been going raw for years, and it never happened, despite no medical diagnosis they can’t get pregnant.

Oh this is a breakdown within race so of all black mothers, 47% are single moms and of all white mothers 14% are single moms.

Obviously I'm aware of this and that was my whole point of saying you have to have "adult conversations".

Yes, and does it also included divorced single moms?

 

[Brolic]

nikka why do you keep doing as if this was in the op?

Because I’m tryna figure out what you think a single mother is. It’s not an abstract concept

 

[JNew]

We have ourselves to blame but also the system it’s both

The system, god, alah, Buddha, the buggy man, rogger rabbit.

U notice anything?

 

[BrothaZay]

Why is the white number the focus of this thread ?

They did not define it in the op that's basically my point.

It actually is abstract.

He brought up a good question. What you define as a single mother, someone else may not.

The only people shocked by that stat are those that don't read.

Nah, the stats have a tendency to be untrue when it comes to specific demographics

 

[Treblemaka]

You’re talking about an enslaved\oppressed group that really can’t govern itself the way that it needs to. We are governed by a majority group that really wants to destroy us completely. You can’t discipline your way out of that. The white boy is seen as the leader of our community in the eyes of too many black women.

Are you speaking for our women or yourself here?

When my Grandad had to fire his shotgun to keep the klan from burning a cross in his yard my grandmother NEVER thought a white man was a leader in her community.

When our leaders were getting shot dead, beat, tortured, and strung up on a regular basis our women NEVER thought a cac was a leader in our community.

Our women marry us at high rate than we marry them, but cacs are the leaders perceived as leaders in our communities?

if you believe that we can't even govern our own households then you might as well concede the battle and rollover.
