You make some great points. Actually the black folks on here who I won't mention their names love to bring up white folks and what they do. When one of the biggest things they do is stress to their kids to find a mate when they go to college.
I will never forget taking a class in college and a study came out about marriage. The professor asks the class who came to college with the intention to get a degree and who came to college with the intent to get a degree and a mate.
Now the class was about 60% white and 40% black (with 200 students). You would be amazed how many white kids and white girls for that matter raised their hands when the professor asked how many kids went to college to get a degree and a mate (a bunch of them). Let's says say 60 white hands went up and maybe 5 black folks raised their hands.
That just shows how negative a view black women and men have of marriage and how black parents the last two generations have not stressed the importance of marriage to their kids.
But I will say I have to give it to rural black folks. They may not talk about marriage all the time. But families certainly expect their kids to get married (no matter if they hoes, former hoes, rich, poor, middle class, baby mommas or daddies, young or old). The expectation is that your ass gets married.
And you do see them get married at a higher rate than city folks.
Yea. I noticed that about my girl's friends. She graduated in 2014 and two of her friends are already getting married. Barely 22/23. Black women don't do this in mass.
