You and PhillyLove are right on target with the last part of your posts. That is what I love most about being a Black Man. The sense that we're on the level with one another. The fact that almost any Black Man I meet, can tell a story of his life experience, and I can relate to nearly all of them.
Re: What did Tiger delete? He posted it in the Stereotypes and Myths section. "BM who isnt a stereotype" or something.
You know what? As I read through this, depsite the overbearing untone, I think you may be onto somethin' here. I really mean that.
Yeah Jerome it's great that you have love and respect for your own and are fond of them.........(but WHO DOESN'T/ISN'T)........if you could open your heart to other races as well and see they have good individuals and bad individuals just like your race, that would be great too. Well maybe there aren't many good ones where you live. Shit happens. I liked the " I love breaking a young white girls heart" part. I bet it makes you feel so manly to do that, you chicken. Of course, you wouldnt do the same to a black girl's heart. What -ever!!!!!!!!
A question asked for a answer that couldnt possibly be expressed in words. Besides coming from a bloodline of eygptian kings, i think my man Rudyard said it best when he wrote the poem "if". If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too: If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream -- and not make dreams your master; If you can think -- and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same: If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings, And never breathe a word about your loss: If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings -- nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much: If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And -- which is more -- you'll be a Man, my son! -- Rudyard Kipling
With the exception of "loving to break a young white girl's heart" I can agree with your post. I do love being the underdog though, cause when the odds are against you from birth, you become a creative individual to get what you want. I've done the "taken women " thing when I was younger. Gotta admit, it's a rush, an adrenaline high to know that the hottie you're hittin, has a man or a husband that you've probrably met before, who has no idea. I chuckle to myself when I'm at a red light, or even walking down the sidewalk of a busy street, and see white women slyly checking me out, with their man sitting or walking right next to them. It's sneaky and low down, but that's what I like about it. Lastly, and most importantly, is knowing that because we are considered the lowest of the low, the bottom of the social ladder, success for us shines all the brighter. I'm proud of ANY Black man that succeeds in whatever he does, and overcomes the odds. Underdogs all the way.
I have to admit, i have been through the whole "taking the white man's woman" phase. High school and college years!!! :lol: :lol:
