Are Black Women Really That Far Ahead of Black Men?

According to Sara Taylor they are. Of course Sara has a self-centered and self-serving agenda, so allow me to seperate the fantasy from the reality.

RealityCheck : While there were more black women (747,000) 18-24 in college then black men (480,000) in the year 2000, there were also 36.6 million blacks in the United States.

Only 17.6 percent of black people over age 25 have a college degree. The vast majority of black men and women do not possess a college education. While I do think a college education is valuable, it is not the only measure of success. Also one must consider that degrees and schools vary greatly (a Harvard Business student will rarely be unemployed while a JuCo Cultural Studies major may struggle in the job hunt), so comparing raw numbers don't mean a whole lot.

In typical Sara fashion, she uses a few pictures to illustrate her self-serving point (black man in prison, black women graduating college), so I decided to show a more realistic cross section of black men in America. Whether it is a cab driver or millionaire athlete, a recent grad or a surgeon, these men are doing their best to represent themselves, their families, and black people in a country that does not wholly provide enough positive images of black men. Despite being a black woman with a black father and black brothers, cousins, and uncles, Sara continues to add to the onslaught of negativity towards black men.

Why is this even considered "a competition" in the first place? Can there really be a "winner" if a chasm exist between the sexes? Don't you find it interesting that Sara would use a small sample of black people to represent black women's "domination" over black men? Not that interesting really, actually it is quite simple:

Sara uses the number of women in college as an indication of ALL Black women shows you what Sara cares about: herself and people like herself and their ability to bed wench themselves out to white men who will have them. Sara could give a damn about black women in general even though she claims to be a black women advocate.

How could a black women claim to "be so far ahead" of anyone when 23.4% of all black women over the age of 18 live in poverty? I will let you read this article to see where black women stand on things such as incarceration, STD's, out-of-wedlock pregnancies, etc.

All these things matter not to Sara, what matters is trying to come up with stats to impress "da white man" and justify being his cum bucket. Instead of reaching back and developing ideas to help these troubled black women, Sara instead lashes out at successful black men for failing to uplift their communities. While this lashing out is not without merit, her failure to apply the same standards to black women who fail to uplift the community is extremely hypocritical. Sara would be quick to demean a successful black man who moved away from the black community and call him names such as "coonified" and "sellout" and "white man's slave". However her solution to black women is to do the same: cozy up to da white man (who in reality gives less a damn about black women than anyone else as they are always his last choice of mate - but more on that in another post).

Like I always said, who people date and mate with is their own personal business, I could care less. Please cut the bullshit and do it on your own accord and stop pretending you have some higher purpose.
