Chivalry is alive, but y’all are killing men’s desire to want to help y’all. It’s danged if they do, danged if they don’t. Couldn’t be me tho. I can admit when I need a man’s help.
I was talking to one of my patients about Lauryn Hill’s album & he had no idea who she was. I asked my coworkers if they heard of her & they were clueless. Cultural differences never cease to amaze me.
The way Black women are being weaponized against Black men is wild. I wish more Black women would open their eyes to how we’re being used to attack Black men and the Black family.
Black women shouldn't strive to be independent of Black men. Black men and women should build relationships based on interdependence. We need each other, and that’s natural.
If you have a problem with a traditional man asking if you can cook, don’t ask him if he can provide, lead, etc. If you don’t want to perform your role, why should he?
Black men need to stop tolerating disrespect from Black women. No Black woman respects beta men. Many refuse to admit it, but we like being put in our place.
No. I’m pro-Black. A white man can’t understand my struggle & definitely can’t love me like a Black man can. I want my children to be Black & proud of it. Black love is beautiful & I refuse to deny myself of it.
We need to acknowledge how Black women can contribute to the sexualization of Black boys & girls. Behavior like this grooms them to think this is appropriate. A grown woman shouldn’t shake her behind in front of KIDS.

The push for women to go wild in their 20s and embrace hypersexuality is a trauma response disguised as liberation. Women nor men should embrace hypersexuality.
So many Black people are willing to overlook Kamala’s anti-Black politics simply because she’s a Black woman. We should want better for ourselves. We deserve candidates with Black agendas.
Black men and women should inherently respect and uplift each other. I choose to uplift and defend Black men because I love them & I’m tired of seeing them disrespected/attacked while we’re elevated.
Shawty called me a pick me light skin woman because I said it’s disrespectful to compare Black men to white women LOL. Feminism has brainwashed so many Black women.
This is highly disrespectful, and he should just leave her. Black men, do not tolerate disrespect from Black women. That’ll save you both the embarrassment.
I'm a therapist, and I understand the importance of vetting us. Reaching out to a therapist is a vulnerable step, esp. in communities where it’s stigmatized. Clients deserve to explore whether or not we’re a good fit for them.
I’m no longer accepting male clients. They get in my email inbox and want me to prove why they should choose me as a therapist.
No scheduled consultations or nothing to see if we are a good fit. I’m not the 1 or the 2 to prove my worth to anyone.
We would not work well
This is assault, and people are laughing smh. We already know what would happen if the roles were reversed, but Black men aren’t afforded the same care and concern. She needs to be in jail.
To the people saying Black men should be saying this: they do. No. One. Listens. A Black man would be dismissed if he said this, but people are more inclined to listen when comes from a BW. That’s the society we live in.
“When the Black woman attacks the Black man publicly, she inadvertently gives the entire world permission to attack him also.”

The Blackman’s Guide to Understanding the Blackwoman
Y’all have to realize that dating within your race is natural. How are you gonna shame a person for wanting to be with someone who looks like them/shares a similar culture?
Having a degree doesn’t make you smarter than the next person. Kudos to you if you have one, but it doesn’t automatically make your statements more valid than others.
This Black man’s struggle is only being displayed for entertainment. He needs actual help. “Dr.” Phil is not even a licensed psychologist and clearly seeks to exploit him.
I’ve noticed that if you have a negative perception of Black men, that’s what you will attract. My perception of BM is positive, so I attract positive. I feel protected and supported by BM in my circle and even strangers.
The gender wars and African diaspora wars are what turned me off from Twitter. At one point, it was all I saw, and that’s tiring when you desire Black unity.
Black people, in general, need healthier eating habits. We should all aim to lessen our intake of sugar, salt, dairy, etc. & consume more food beneficial to our bodies.
It's dangerous for Black women to base their entire perception of Black men on isolated incidents. Trauma shouldn’t be ignored, but it also shouldn’t be used to generalize Black men as a whole.
If you're going to say something controversial, be prepared to stand on it. I’m tired of seeing people fold on their beliefs because of the backlash they receive.
This statistic includes single mothers, so they’re the breadwinners by default. Married Black men are the primary breadwinners, not married Black women.
Don’t manipulate statistics to fit your narrative.
