Walking over from DST Blvd
Well.....I felt the article made the situation seem a little different from what it really is. There are still educated black men out there, but what I find (in corporate America), is that many of them (not all) aren't really lookin at being with a sista, and if they are, it's all physical. And then they get mad when it doesn't work out and they give up on us altogether.
So as far as the article goes, I do agree that with our generation it will be hard as black women to stay within the race, but it's not necessarily because there are NO black men at our level - in my opinion its because a lot of the black men's standards go to another level - a highly unrealistic level.....
I'm blessed to have found and married a strong black man and we are equally matched education and salary wise, but I have SO many friends in their mid and upper 30's not married and worried cuz the clock is ticking.
*by the way*
I think Beyonce finished high school. Dang y'all.
