- notice i said in our communities. I am in college too. there are some "serious sistas" up here no doubt, but unlike you, I dont choose to pretend that the sistas who are up in the clubs all the time with the tongue rings and screwing all the greek brothas and athletes don't exist...and yes, they are getting pregnant and having to leave college early...

- if that is your point you would have said that by now, your point is that the women are innocent and deserve to be commended.

- your arguments jump all over the place when you speak. how can a female be "decieved" but at the same time jump into sex as "something to do" and have no regard for the consequences!? that statement makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

- whoa wait a minute...you have a mentee?! you mentor YOUTH!? an--and your mentee is in COLLEGE NOW!?!? wow. i have NEVER heard you say THAT before on here...kudos!
