WOW, Brotha if you dug a lil deeper and was informed as much as you think you are, you'd know black women didn't drink the white womans fem koolaid but more like it was forced down throats, research social services their practices/ policies/rules and such in that era.

Secondly Jill was married.

Thirdly being independent for women is not an option but a requirement these days, for more reasons than one.

Excuse you Mr. David!

But did you go out and do surveys on what all black women wanted in regards to being single or not? I'm going to go with NOT! You have no clue what so ever!

David, I agree with what you're saying - that coin has two sides and if black women would be "all that" instead of acting the part of a black man then perhaps more black MEN would have a better relationship with black women. "A Black Woman" needs to strong when standing by her man and not a boss, when you boss a black man all too often you wind up with a hand full of father's and a lot of baby's daddy's. All black men that date white women aren't bad it could be that he just fell in Love with her, Stop hatting because half of black women wouldn't give him a chance anyway and just want to be nasty.

My Brother,
I have to completely agree with your comments, but let me add a little more! BW, are always complaining "period" about everything on the planet but refuse to be held accountable for anything! Far, too many know absolutely little, or nothing about being ladies! And, that well known negative "big" attitude that the majority of them have is, and continues to be the major source of their problem.
Also, it's always all about them, and their self centered, self promoting, immature, rude, disrespectful, and negative attitudes! You want to be treated like Queens? Okay, then first try acting like ladies with some self respect, and dignity! But, I wouldn't hold my breathe wanting for that to ever happen!
BW were singing a completely different tune back in the day when the feminist movement was in full swing.....many at that time wouldn't give a BM the time of day, and only choose instead to date WM, but that only turned out to be a quick fading fade! Now, since more and more BM are no longer interested in BW, and have for the most part "moved on" to greener pastures with non-black women now here come BW as per usual with their predictable ranting's! For the most part WM used BW up, kicked them to the crub, and then sent them packing! In all truth no one wants a BW! And, now that BM have moved on, opting instead for non-black women...which by the way isn't just only about "White women", it's also about Latinas, Asia, and a whole host of others!
Now, all of a sudden it's an issue.....again! The bitter truth is that the majority of BW prefer to be only a "Baby Momma" and not opt to be a wife, and embrace marriage like most non-black women do. Then BW have the nerve to talk about strong black families? Go, figure that for convoluted logic! What man in his right mind only wants a Baby Mama? Sadly, the majority of BW are in fact just that! And, now we hear all these BW talking all that "smack" about not wanting to get married. and them preferring to embrace the single lifestyle. That's nothing but more smack, and lies! The truth in both reality, and in fact is that BW are the "least desirable" women for marriage of all races in the US today! Let's, look at the facts! Only 30% of BW are married, 70% single, 62% of BW have "never" been married, and 45% of BW will "never" marry in their lifetimes! And, only 4% of BW marry outside their race, which also clearly indicates that the overwhelming majority non-black men aren't in the least interested in BW....period! Lastly, BW are, and continue to be the highest risk group for both genders, and all races in the US as it relates to "HIV/AIDS" with clearly (according to the CDC) are responsible for 66% of all reported AIDS cases for women of all races in the United States! That's two out of every three cases! And, BW continue to ask "why" in the world they're alone? Try, taking a long hard look at yourselves in the mirror, and while you're at it try losing some weight "64.3%" of BW are overweight, also lose the fake hair, and while you're at it try changing your attitudes!

It is apparent that you David drank the whitei man kool-aid and have turned against your own people. White continue to this date to pit groups against each other even within their own race. If you think all BW prefer to be single and have children out of wedlock you need to broaden your horizon. Like myself all of my black girls friend professionals, college educated and childless; however, the quality bm that they all prefer is lacking. We all know the prisons are full with most of our men, not to mention many are gay and many marry out of their race.

To David
You are dead wrong. Black women never drank the "white feminist kool aid" as you so ignorantly comment. First a little Black History 101. This commentary in no way applies to ALL Black men but far too many. Black women from the time they arrived in the Americas have always been liberated when it came to work and procreation. We worked in the fields, the kitchen, the house or wherever Massa decided. When we were manumitted we left the plantation and continued to operate and manage business as we had practiced in bondage. As education became available, Black women and men seized the opportunity. Black men decided they wanted a piece of the forbidden fruit, believing sex would be better and took every opportunity to seize. Jill is partially correct in saying it is because of our history. Which part? Blacks in other parts of the world are products of slavery just as American Blacks are, just generations removed. In England, by way of Africa, Jamaica, etc. All humanity originated in Africa. I hope that she was referring to the sense of superiority that was falsely given to Whites particularly women. They (White women)were considered more beautiful,lovely, pristine, intelligent,desirable etc.,etc., etc. Black men witnessed this and as they interface with white women today that long hidden desire for them becomes attainable. But more importantly it was the white skin and hair that intrigued, fascinated and caused them to lose their minds and abandon the Black woman. That is it precisely. As for Black women wanting to be single and independent...a deliberate distortion of truth. You sorry cowards decided you did not want MARRIAGE nor did you want to TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for the many babies that you helped procreate. Additionally, you know as well as we know that white women will do anything that most Black men tell them to and we will NOT. I believe slavery ended in 1875 or there of. So now you have a different prototype, a twisted one at that. This new slave girl (White) gives them money, sex, babies, false sense of esteem, she believes their lies, has their mulatto baby/ies takes the physical and mental abuse and neglect while many of them are out with a Black woman or another White woman. It is just a shift in paradigm. How do I obtain this information...I know too many of them who come to me for advice and console. As for being single and independent, I have dated white men, found them to treat me like the queen that I am, but I choose to be single rather than deal with another sorry Black male. Did you ever consider why Black women are like they are...because YOUR kind of sorry Blacks have let Black women down. We can be guaranteed that you will not be there for us ever. It's the curse that your type lives with. As for me I love my life without you. We really don't need your type. Sistahs...move on and do not limit your choice of a real man.

Black women cry about Black men because they still care. As far as feminism and empowerment, I don't think any human being does not want to be free and self-supporting. That does not mean they do not want to be loved and share love with someone who comes from their own historical background.
