  1. Lol, well first of all young lady......what is YOUR age?
  2. One of the reasons so many American women....including many AfroAmerican women....are having to resort to injections, implants, and surgeries today just to get a nice shapely ass is because their lifestyle and the food and chemicals in the environment is screwing up their hormones and genes to the point that many of them are coming out "funny made". People from many so-called third world countries who still eat natural food and live a basic life are usually MUCH stronger physically and made much better. Also, Crack and Meth will ZAP your ass right out the frame. I can take you back to Detroit and show you so many women who had nice bodies with high round asses when they were in highschool but as soon as they got on that Crack....5 or 10 years later their ass is flatter than fruit punch. And got the NERVE to wear some spandex. I met a girl one time who called herself wearing a g-string and her butt was so flat, when she stood up you could see the whole string from top to bottom.
  3. I've heard a lot of women say they find confidence very attractive. I don't fully understand the mechanisms of this. As a man, if I find a woman attractive....she's attractive. Unless she's acting like a straight up dude, her personality and attitude has little to do with it. Now if I want to APPROACH her....now other factors come into play. But whether she's confident in herself or totally lack confidence, means nothing to me. On the flip side, I've seen some ugly dudes who pull more women than they can handle. And it's clearly not because of their looks, and in most cases not because of their money......but it's something about their personality.
  4. Exactly. Will Smith MADE him show some respect for his wife, most men around the world would find that admirable. I know most women find it attractive and comforting to have a man willing to check another man on live television for her honor. Troy I'm not talking about the guy who kissed Will, I was actually talking about Chris Rock. If you consider Will Smith a "punk" for hitting Chris.....well hell what do you call Chris who didn't even fight back??????
  5. Men usually gain pleasure and increased social status with polygamy. Unlike women who often (undeservedly in my opinion) get a bad rep from having sex with multiple men, it's the exact OPPOSITE for men where we are seen as highly desirable and socially esteemed by openly having multiple women we are taking care of.
  6. Oh yes, I believe every single word I posted and I KNOW most of it to be true based on observation. Which part of it do you not agree with? Troy As a Black man, why would you argue AGAINST Black men being more masculine than White men?
  7. Since we're quoting stats and racial comparisons............. Don't leave out the fact that White men tend to have a noticeably lower testosterone level than Black men and this has been shown to be the case across national and cultural boundaries. White men simply have less testosterone, which means smaller penises, more impotence, less muscle tone, less bass in their voices, and more erectile dysfunction and at earlier ages. According to some figures, White men on average start getting erectile dysfunction in their 30s as their testosterone rate....already low...plummets. Low testosterone and erectile dysfunction also leads so sexual perverse behavior like pedophilia and bestiality because "normal" sexual relations are often problematic. This explains why the vast majority of pedophiles are White men. It also explains why the White dominated Catholic Church insists on it's clergy to be celibate and abstain from sexual activity, something totally unnatural and not found in religions dominated by people of color and especially Black religions where sex is enjoyed and celebrated.
  8. Notice how these racists have more respect and empathy for NON-AMERICAN drug trafficking murders and gang members than they have for fellow American citizens if they are Black? Reminds me of how the racist Republicans love Russia more than they do America....because Russia is still almost all White.
  9. Troy Your last name is Johnson and you grew up in the Johnson Houses???? How interesting. Were the projects named after your family....lol. Now my question for you is: If Will Smith smacking Chris on live television over insulting his wife was a "punk move".....what do you call the guy who GOT smacked and just stood there looking stupid?
  10. I thought East Harlem was "Spanish Harlem" populated mostly by Puerto Ricans and Dominicans.
  11. Professor Black Truth has something to say on this issue:
  12. frankster Most men are not attracted to women solely for their looks but rather more likely their sexual accessibility or availability. Well, if you want to talk about who men actually PURSUE....that's a different story, lol. Most men are attracted to women based on their looks, but most men don't pursue every or even most women they are attracted to. Who a man chooses to pursue is based on a lot of factors such as his own self esteem, whether he feels he can actually attain her or not (or "availability" as you say), how strong his sexual desires are, his social status, etc. But as I said, a man is actually ATTRACTED mostly by looks and to a lesser extent by personality. Ugly usually means someone who is unhealthy or damage in some way even malformed/infirmed(unhealthy aging)...a healthy person truly cannot really be ugly It depends on who's using the term. When I use the term "ugly"....I'm talking about someone who is either naturally ugly or is ugly because of "wear and tear". Not someone who is severely deformed or disfigured due to an accident. I think it would be unfair to call such a person "ugly". Kind of like it wouldn't be proper to compare someone who was of normal intelligence but got into a bad car accident and is now a vegetable to a person who's been dizzy stupid since childhood. Maybe they do exist....please post a picture of one such individual if you can?
  13. ProfD I agree that Will probably was taking a lifetime of frustration at being called soft, a bitch, and a cuck all out on Chris that night....but still....he DID smack the dude. It wasn't fake or set up....he had the balls to walk up and steal on him (not really a steal because he saw him coming....lol) on live televison. I agree that it wasn't a good look for Black folks collectively, but in my opinion it did raise Will's manhood by a few points in my opinion. But most Black folks ain't giving him NO pass....lol. Poor Will can't win for losing. Not sure how Chris Rock could come out looking good after having the shit smacked out of him on live television and he did nothing but stand there in shock and tell jokes to ease the situation. Would most of us have done differently? Not sure....but it is what it is. He got smacked and didn't retaliate. Fuck what White folks think....self defense is a natural right. I'm as pro-Black as they come, however if some fools start busting at my house.....I'm not gonna run out on the porch and start quoting Huey P. Newton to them in hope of convincing them to turn their gun on the "real enemy". I'm gonna bust back and try to get as many of them as I can to prevent it from happening again....lol.
  14. ProfD the question then becomes what is the difference between a highly intelligent individual who does little or nothing with their great brain and a natural fool who still manages to take of self. Potential. The highly intelligent person has it IN them, whether they decide to use it or not. I have a cousin who is highly intelligent, but he CHOOSES to run the streets and is an alcoholic and drug user. Whenever he does decide to clean himself up (if he does) his mind will be a force to recon with. I have another cousin who hangs with him and does the same thing, but is a natural fool....I mean NATURAL. So silly he didn't know the difference between the words "cherish" and "cherries" until he was 25 years old...lol. I mean, so goofy he barely passed the test to get into the military and THEN got kicked out because he kept asking people "How do you know who to shoot?" during basic training. And we know this because he ADMITTED to us that's why he got kicked out. A NATURAL fool.....lol H8ll, we just had a natural fool aka clown running the country for 4 years. Are we sure Trump was a fool? Or did he PRETEND to be one for entertainment purposes in order to relate to the fools who voted for and supported him? Most Trump voters are clowns and fools and he would have been wise to stoop to their level in order to relate to them.
  15. Jasmine Guy using her "Whitley" voice and accent....lol
  16. frankster Charisma works for ugly men to attract women, but it would take a LOT of charisma for a physically ugly woman to be attractive to most men. Most women's charm is IN their looks, not their words or swag. When a so-called "ugly" woman is said to attract men with her personality, if you look closely at her.....she's really not "ugly" but just less than ideal based on societal standards. For example, people will often say that Oprah is an "ugly" woman who made herself attractive being a celebrity and billionaire. The fact is Oprah....though not a beauty queen....wasn't an ugly woman. She looked like a typical sista you'd see in the hood. Maybe a little overweight but nothing unusually bad or grotesque about her. Ugliness does indeed exist, but most people being called ugly in this society are actually being MIS-LABELED as such because they may not meet society's ideal standards of beauty.
  17. Hmmmmm.......... Now this brings up more interesting questions. Are we sure this person's lack of preparedness is strictly a result of "bad luck" or do they have a HISTORY of being unprepared through out life? If a person has a history of being unprepared, can we really call that person "unlucky"? Perhaps they are suffering from a lack of intelligence and motivation which is why they are routinely unprepared. I would think a truly "unlucky" person would be one who WAS prepared and made all of the right moves but ended up being hit by something on his way to play those winning numbers OR maybe he DID play those numbers and won but ended up getting robbed on his way home. Either way....he doesn't get the money he should have gotten because of bad luck.
  18. ProfD Would you say being born with a great working brain and high intelligence is "good luck"? A person really can't help what kind of brain they were born with. Can a man help it if he was just born a NATURAL FOOL???
  19. There are quite a few Africans where I live and the African women still have those nice brown cakes bouncing around back there. But something happened to many of our sistaz these past 20 or 30 years. Not sure if it's the food or the chemicals they're putting in the environment but so many of them are coming out not just with flat butts but big husky shoulders, thick necks, and a violent angry disposition. Go to a mall or somewhere where a lot of young Black folks meet up and you're guaranteed to hear a bunch of young girls talking about fighting and "beating a bitch ass" on the regular. Many of them just love violence and fighting. That's totally unnatural for girls of any culture. Not sure WHAT the hell is going on with our girls man. Clearly the estrogen level has been lowered and the testosterone level raised.
  20. KENNETH I can't go by what happened in other parts of the nation or what happened before I was born, I go by what I was around to experience and witness in my neck of the woods. In Detroit THOUSANDS of Black folks owned homes and other properties from working in the factories. Many of them left these properties to their children only for their children to fuck it up and lose them through drugs, laziness, indifference, etc.....not just racism. Listening to Gangsta Rap music like NWA and Dr.Dre promoting a criminal lifestyle, drug use, and violence got a lot of young Black folks in trouble so they ended up losing a lot of what their parents and grand parents fought and sacrificed for. Interestingly enough also, COLLEGE and sending their children off to college instead of encouraging them to get hired in and work those good paying factory jobs like them or better yet open up their own businesses instead of going for useless college degrees was another problem. Thousands of Black children who didn't want to get up early in the morning and go work at a factory for a decent wage like their parents, went off to college to get a useless degree and now they can't even pay their own bills. Working at Starbucks and Target. Meanwhile Ford and GM are opening up plants in Mexico and China and many of THEM are reaping the benefits!
  21. @anonymous50 Lol...you must not be a light skinned Black man. There are a lot of Black women out there absolutely CRAZY over light skinned men. Out there trying to have all kinds of light skinned babies with green and hazel eyes and curly hair by light skinned dudes.
  22. ProfD Lol.....so the resident agnostic believes that luck is purely CHANCE ?
  23. ProfD Not sure what type of hustle they may have been into but whatever they did for a living, they didn't deserve the hellish experience they went through down there. Fox News is doing story after story about the incident but they are sloooooooowly and skillfully trying to raise question about the legitimacy and innocence about the 4 Americans. Testing the waters. Some people are just made with flat butts....it's genetic. No amount of squats, butt squeezes, and exercise or CORN BREAD and BEANS will give them that nice round brown.....lol. Sometimes it takes surgery to get the job done. Most Black women have a naturally round and high ass but something strange has been happening these past 20 years. It seems these past 20 years more and more White girls have been getting round and high butts without exercise or surgery and I've seen more Black girls no matter how heavy or fat they are with FLAT butts and funny shaped butts. I know something is wrong because when I look at Black women from Africa they still have those round high bouncy asses and wide hips that I remember sistaz used to have 40 years ago. And the older Black women seem to still have it too. But many of those born after 1990 seem to be made funny.
  24. This is why I enjoy Tariq Nasheed's Hidden Colors series and his other Black history documentaries. He delivers AfroAmerican history in a way that even most of the major universities don't and will not. I'm glad we finally have the OPPORTUNITY (luck??? lol) to tell our own stories now. In many parts of the world, the history and contributions of their Black population has been suppressed and ignored by society in general and virtually NO effort is made to retrieve it. I was watching a documentary on the oppression Black people face from Arabs in Tunisia which is actually IN Africa!
  25. It was a smart move because he's making money off the incident but...... I guess I just think differently than most people because I still think it wasn't very honorable for Chris Rock to get the shit slapped out of him on stage and did nothing, to NOW start talking shit and running his mouth about the incident. And to go after Jada like that NOW when the coast is clear and Will ain't up in his face to check him again for it??? Come on...how can we respect a guy like that? I don't see how so many Black folks born and raised in the hood can look at that and not call Chris a punk. I said over and over again that through out much of his life Will was called weak, a punk, a this and that.....and when he DOES show some aggression and masulinity he's clowned for THAT. Defending his wife's honor was a "stupid move"??? Black America has a lot of shit twisted.
