Ladies, are you at war with yourself? Yes, as a black woman I am sick of all the "Why Black Women Aren't" But let me offer some opinions from a female perspective in combination with the male perspectives of men I know. Since I am not one to be in denial, I can accept constructive criticism. However because I am newly engaged, I can offer some insight of some of the things that are huge issues for Black men. They are all not into white women, gay, commitment phobes, broke, or crazy. There are some good men out there but because many women are too self-absorbed and shallow, they don't see the   read more
