Why do some brothers get so upset about valid, verifiable statistics? |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 5
|
Several reasons. |

|
No one is forcing you socialize or even sympathize with these women |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 12
|
it's natural to socialize with them, why wouldn't it be?? |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 16
|
I don't form longstanding social relationships with adults who complain |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 19
|
wait, your social circle doesnt have that many Black American Women |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 22
|
It does. It's just not STRICTLY that. You really sit in conversations |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 23
|
I'm not talking about ALL Black groups tho... |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 26
|
You should be arguing with the people who taught you to read, not me |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 29
|
#22 your social circle doesnt have that many Black W's? |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 33
|
It's not about "complaining a lot" |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 79

I think dude was dead set on an ALL Black bitching circle.... |
|
Aug 27th 2015 | 159
|
You really don't get it. People are less likely discuss these issues in... |
|
Aug 27th 2015 | 160
|
I get upset because its becoming quite the dead horse |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 13
|
It's not a dead horse for single women who are struggling to find a mate |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 18
|
ive found that alot of cats seem mad insensitive to this issue... |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 62

Aug 26th 2015 | 6
|
I don't really have any opinion at this point. I mean I do but I don't |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 7
|
How can anyone who is not a black woman even speak on it? |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 8
|
1. valid point 2. explain the assimilation angle a bit more |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 9
|
yeah, i want to know wtf he talking about... |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 11
|
If you look at other groups that have 'assimilated' i.e. become white |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 28

I think some of these women set their standards entirely too high |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 17

i was bothered by that too |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 20

tired of this topic so I usually ignore but I have one question |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 50
|
A fair number of black women on this board date white dudes |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 55
|
no. not any more anyway |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 68
|
thats good to hear, and they should |
|
Aug 27th 2015 | 153

It's a trajectory issue. No more, no less. |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 57
|
Nah. There are stats that show the odds aren't even. |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 59
|
Stats which point to what exactly? |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 60
|
Prison statistics. Interracial marriage stats. Education stats. |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 80
|
We're talking men who are "marriage material" in eyes of the women in ? |

This is what I believe as well |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 61

I agree. especially as it pertains to black women. just my opinion |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 115

everyone who REALLY REALLY wants to talk about this issue |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 58

black women just rather be single |
|
Aug 26th 2015 | 72

There is very little social stigma to still fucking randoms |
