I am 58 and no I don't know and white men who have kids to different moms, not saying there aren't any, just don't know any, maybe because I'm older.

These issues of black anger resides from black anger and black women not wanting black men due to broke, or low funded men is a slap in the face to centuries of slavery and imprisonment.

We should learn from the Mexicans they don't watch whites, we watched whites like a obsession and it's not gonna work for us. You're gonna see a lot of 50 year old single black women with kids and no man and men not wanting to marry them because of bad choices she made in the past.

Following white America is not the answer to our problems period, I'm sure conservatives would agree with me completely.
Mexicans have had a culture of there own for better than a thousand years, black Americans have not had a long enough time to develop a true culture, especially since most don't know what country they came from in Africa, if they are slave descendent's. So what choice do blacks have, what culture do they follow?

I pretty much agree with goldenchild's statements. Most women are uninterested in poor/uneducated males.

If black men barely make 30k, this should help explain why there's so much poverty and devastation in black communities. 30k is simply not enough to garner access to safe neighborhoods, excellent schools and quality food.

This is TBM Diary of a Tired Black Man - The Movie - Main "Tired Black Man" Discussion Group
Are the posters on that forum really Black? Wow if so that is so sad. They are blaming everything that is wrong with the black community on black women, however we are not the ones causing all the murders in our community. It's the men fighting and killing each other. And then abandoning black women so they have to be single mothers. They never talk about what they should to encourage black men to step up and be fathers to their own children.

Anyway, I do know a forum where you can legitimately talk about the problems going on in the black community and discuss possible solutions. it's on a facebook page. Currently, it consists of mostly women but men are welcomed to join. We talk about everything and we don't sugarcoat a thing

Very good point. But these women should expand their options (ie date other races) instead of wallowing and complaining about the so called "black male shortage". Once again I'll pose that most of these women complaining are older women, younger AA women aren't complaining about a shortage because they have the pick of the litter.
That isn't true. I don't have the pick of the litter, unless you are talking about the AA women who are Beyonce-clones, then yeah most likely those types do.

There are so many different types of men in the world, and not everyone is looking for a Beyonce clone. You may however have a few issues with attracting different types of guys, if you're overweight.

Not every woman has the pick of the litter, but most have multiple suitors to choose from in their younger years, as long as she is decent looking and not overweight. Even the mean women who fit this description have no problem finding suitors.

And no, I'm not talking about Beyonce clones or any other famous clones. They aren't close to the majority of any race's women so I would be an idiot for using them as an example. I'm talking about regular, girl next door types of any race.

You make a good point about culture, but keep in mind African-Americans DID NOT have these social problems before the 1960s. Most children were born in intact, married families even though most AA's were in poverty, oppression and segregation.

Since this has been going on for only 50 years, it can't be culture.

I'm thin and I am not attracting different types of guys; it doesn't change my skin tone, hair or features. I know in the white community being thin is synonymous with beauty but its so overrated. Unless you are a super knock-out being thin doesn't mean I am gonna be able to marry a rich successful athlete.
