Cute As A Button

[Pioneer1]

Get ready for more "objectification" of women....lol.

This woman is not only intelligent and courageous but as lovely as all get out:
 

I don't see any wedding rings on her finger either....lol.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett is a fearless cutie pie.  She needs to be protected as much as possible. 

 

Otherwise, as an unmarried career politician, it will take a while before Rep. Crockett settles down into a marriage and/or responsibilities that come along with it.

 

it will be interesting to see how far she goes in her political career. 

 

I still don't believe the system is ready for a female POTUS. 

 

But, I can see Rep. Crockett in a cabinet-level position i.e. Vice POTUS, Secretary of State, etc.

Well, at 44.....

She better hurry up and make a decision

As a successful woman, it is not a decision she has to make. 

 

I remember the late Larry King asking Martha Stewart if she would every remarry.  Martha said...I'm already rich, why do I need to be married? 

 

Larry King was stuck for 30 seconds.  You could see the bubble over top of his head saying "women need a man".

 

Independent women don't have to be married especially if the sole purpose of having a man is to get her oil changed.  Any Jiffy Lube will do.

Well, you and I both know the problems our people run into when Black women started trying to learn from and take cues from these feminist White women.

Maybe SHE doesn't need a man, but most women of color need men....just like most men of color need women.

Now I'm not saying this about our sister Congresswoman Crockett in particular, but about Black women in general....
While SOME women don't need a man, the vast majority do.
Not just for financial security but for companionship and sexual satisfaction.

At some point those batteries are BOUND to run out of energy....lol....but Jamar won't!
At some point that gadget is BOUND to malfunction, but DeMarcus is a a sure thang when it comes to getting down in the sack...lol.

Neither a woman nor a man has to be married in order to enjoy companionship and s8xual satisfaction.

It is easier for a woman to replace the batteries in a gadget than it is to get rid of another human being especially if/when they start f8cking up and/or getting on their nerves.

True

Infact,
In this society....in some cases there is actually more HARM that comes from legalizing their relationship than the good that comes out of it.

And being a lawyer...she probably knows that quite well..lol.

Well...
That's what night stands are for.
Keep "back up" in the bottom drawer along with a pack of Duracells just incase.

Right.  Marriage is a social contract of accountability that serves to maintain quotas and provide a moral framework in governing s8xual relations. 

 

Men tried to come up with a way to keep themselves from running around impregnating women without a commitment to take care of them and their offspring. 

 

Especially at time when women were not providers and head of households, it would have been at bad look to have men dropping children everywhere and not providing for them.

 

We live in a society that believes it is a better look for men and women to be in committed relationships stamped in holy matrimony.

 

Of course, like the late Heavy D said, independent-minded folks got their own thang.

She probably hasn't met a man she feels is even on her "level"....lol.

You'd have to offer some pretty strong game to impress a sista like that.

Something tells me Cory Booker ain't even tried...lol.

Surely, she has traveled in circles and been around men on her level. 

 

Balancing her career as a politicians and having time to deal with a man would be the hurdle.

A man on her level doesn't need game to impress her.

That dude would be more interested in going shopping or having a girl's night out with her.

If she found the RIGHT man, he'd be more of an asset than a liability.
He could actually HELP her to overcome any hurdles or obstabcles she faces.

She's a politician.
Imagine if she were to lock arms with a billionaire brother with his own Energy firm down there in Texas.

He could not only fund her re-election campaigns but use his business connections to keep the Republican wolves off her back.
Threaten to cancel their contracts with his firm if they fuck with his lady...lol.
He could also build a plant or two in her district bringing jobs and revenue.
 

Ofcourse, a brutha like that.....she might have to "share" him....if you know what I mean, lol.

I can see him being the shoulder she can cry on, if she needs to.

But something tells me that our sista ain't much on crying....lol.

She's already a successful politician without needing a man's help. 

 

People hardly ever say, if that man locked arms with the *right* woman he would be more successful. 

 

Your scenario paints the picture a lot of women work hard to avoid. They strive to prove a man isn't necessary for their success.

 

Degree of success can be debated but it differs from one person to the another.

Ofcourse.
I'm not suggesting that she NEEDS a man in her life to be successful because she obviously doesn't.
But my point is the RIGHT MAN will make her MORE successful.
There's is little doubt about that.

 

They are known as POWER COUPLES and work together SYNERGISTICALLY.
Just like 2 heads are better than one, when 2 intelligent people who love eachother work together in harmony to achieve an appointed goal...their efforts will usually yield MORE than twice the amount of success that each of them would have produced individually.

When it comes to the success produced by a strong marriage built on love and intelligence, the WHOLE is greater than the sum of it's individual parts.

 

 

 

 

People hardly ever say, if that man locked arms with the *right* woman he would be more successful.

The Nation of Islam constantly teaches the men this, and many fundamentalist Christians, Jews, and Muslims teach this as well.
They teach that a man isn't "complete" unless he's married and that marriage brings out the best in him and mature him.

I personally believe SOME men are better off married and SOME men are better off single, but to be fair...most religions push marriage off on men as much as they push it off on women.

 

 

 

 

Your scenario paints the picture a lot of women work hard to avoid.

If they have to work THAT hard to avoid it, perhaps they need to stop avoiding it...lol.
Perhaps it's trying to get their attention for a reason...lol.

It may be their CONSCIENCE talking to them and telling them that whatever they're striving for, they could get it much faster if they had a good man in their life that they could depend on to help them.

If you think about it, that's just common sense.
Not that you NEED it, but who couldn't use more help to get where they're trying to go?

Oprah could use more.
She doesn't need it.....but she could use it....it wouldn't hurt.

 

 

 

Degree of success can be debated but it differs from one person to the another.

Facts.
Not only the degree but SUCCESS ITSELF and what it means to be "successful" also differs from person to person.

For some people, success means finally learning how to roll a blunt while driving.

"Jeez....
Never thought I'd be happy to get
caught by a red light!"

Sure. Rep. Crockett could hook up with a multimillionaire or billionaire and make bigger moves.

Ask a man like POTUS OJ if any of his wives contributed to his success. Wait for the amswer. Don't interrupt.

Rich and powerful white men are rarely shown with their wives if they are even married at all.

Some folks are unwilling to *do* or put up with the strings attached to that help.

Oprah is a multibillionaire.  Only another billionaire could help her get more than she has already. 

 

Again, these successful women do not think they *need* a man.
