I generally do not get so disgusted, but with a couple of the last posts, I cannot hide my disdain. Are you people serious? Am I hearing what I think I am hearing?
Sometimes, the greatest enemy of black people are we we black people ourselves. We sometimes find away to make excuses for our famous people. There is no way to justify a superstar sleeping with a kid. None. The argument about mature looking children is weak and irresponsible, and borders on a criminal. I cannot say it any better than Lovelyivy.
So what if they "spread their legs"? So would a 2yr-old. I know that is extreme, but the responsibility lies with the adult male. Period. As a man, I have a responsibility to ensure that I am not taking advantage of a child. If I cannot be sure of whom I am sleeping with, then I need to keep my pants on. It is ridiculous to remove blame from who and where it is due.
I agree that some kids are physically misleading. I coach middle school kids, so I've seen grown men fall prey to children. I also agree with Miss priss in that I believe that the parents are almost as guilty as R Kelly. They should be prosecuted. However, to suggest that these supposedly "fast" girls are more to blame than a man with a track record of luring underaged girls to have illicit sexual relations is preposterous.
Sometimes, as men, we need to stop pointing fingers. There are worse things than a "fast" child. I do not mean to sound moralistic, but if we gave in to anything that wore a skirt, we do not deserve the respect and love we demand from our women. We need to quit coddling celebrities, and call a spade a "spade". I agree, Riley, these girls need some good teaching, but the responsibility ultimately lies with the adult. Fair or not, that's how it is, and it is not that hard to uphold.
