Don’t Blame Him She Called You A Female Dog…

What’s going on world? I pray that all is well with everyone. It’s been so much going on lately I don’t know where to begin. I guess I can start with the conversation I over heard two of my female students having last week. I couldn’t believe my ears but nothing surprises me with these 90′s babies. It’s just pure comedy that comes out of their mouth some time and someone needs to let them know most of the stuff is just  pure ignorance.

Let me inform you all of the infamous conversation that was being held by these young girls. Girl A: “Oooh bitch let me see that rock on your hand, who got you that?” Girl B: “Bitch this my promise ring my baby daddy got me” Girl A: “He doing right by you girl, I’m still waiting on my promise ring.”……Whoa! whoa! whoa! Bitch?? Promise ring??? girl what the hell is he promising you? Hmm.. Let me guess?  lies and deceit. And why are y’all calling each other female dogs?

Hey maybe someone can explain this to me in some shape, form, or fashion. Is  bitch a word for women  as nigga is for black people?  I just don’t understand  why women use that term, then turn into she devil the minute a dude uses the word on them. Now it has gotten to the point where our young girls are using the word as if it’s a vocab word in their English class.

I know I’m not the only person that has heard a woman say to another woman “Hey bitch!!” If they don’t  have a problem with the word I hope they don’t think guys are going to bite their tongue when using the term around them. Now younger girls are being trained to be ok with calling and responding to the word bitch like they have four legs, fur and tail. So now our young girls are believing the lies and bull from guys and belittling themselves around guys by calling themselves a female dog.

Let’s do better…Think Tank signing off…..

Why Can’t She Be “International”?

Hey world! It’s always a blessing to write another post and I hope that my writing in return is a blessing for you all. The last couple of weeks I have been caught up in deep thought about doing a little experimenting with “International” women. Now that the thought process has pretty much been completed, does anyone know where I could go in the windy city to find one?. No, but seriously ever since I have mentioned this I have caught a lot of flack from every black woman I know. My question is why?

Why is it that as a young black man when I mention dating “International” women black women jump off the deep end like some loony toon character. I don’t see anything wrong with trying new things. I’ve never been one to stay stagnant in anything. It just seemed to me that I wasnt being open enough with the ethnicity of women I date. How can I honestly say I have lived, or for that matter find my soul’s counterpart in another if I just limit myself to one ethnic group of women? It was like the moment I let this idea come out of my head and into the public, black women pounced on it like free relaxer. They grew furious trying to figure out what they didn’t have that an “International” woman did. The majority of  black women I knew who responded to me got defensive, and tried to treat me with the same respect of an Ike Turner.

I just want to clear up a few minor things. Just because I say “International” doesn’t mean that you should automatically think I want to date someone outside my race/ethnic group. I know that there are women of my ethnic background who aren’t American. I wonder what that do, you feel me. However, “International” does include other ethnic groups as well. I am interested in what they have to offer as well. I just think at no time should I have to be permanently linked to just American black women. I should be able to do so without taking flack from black women just I am not doing the status quo.

I think black women should stop taking the interracial dating thing so personal. It seems as though it’s some sort of taboo to date or have a relationship with someone non-black if you’re black. I am tired of people doing the same things that they’re parents did because they’re parents did it, or doing entering the same repetitive relationships because that’s all they know or are comfortable with. There’s nothing wrong with trying new things and stepping outside that box of “normality”. I don’t think happiness has a color nor do I think it’s a slap in the face to date outside your own race the way society does. What’s wrong with a brotha going “International” with his women, because staying ”stateside” isn’t the only way you can live. Whose to say, you just may like one more than the other.

I love black women so don’t go bananas, but I don’t discriminate and neither should YOU!!!…. :-)

Until next time………….
