I am 30 and ...I just don't want all the fluff and fuss...I am thinking about eloping, is this is good or bad idea? Do you know anyone who has eloped? What was the result?

I think that black women can be independant to a fault. Independance infers that you don't need anyone. If someone knows that you don't need him, why should he stay?

Could you be abstinent with someone and not "try him out" before he married you?

Black women are notoriously overweight. Many black women are clearly overweight and consider themselves "thick". Should we take a hint from white women and start taking better care of our bodies? Why don't we do so now?

(From a brother on the Essence site- I respect his opinion and wanted black women's take on his perspective)
Now to my point. I cannot speak for all black men, certainly not for the NBA and other sports professionals but as an regular joe, my take on why successful black men go for white women is simply of the fact that black women do not embrace educated black men. Meaning, a black man, young, in school, studying to become someone successful in life. To him, 2008 and possibly 2009, young black…

The NAACP doesn't have a lot of support from younger generations. For one, I think that they should revamp the whole organization, starting with changing the name. What do you think?

Can you be a TRUE Christian and still commit fornication which is a major no-no as indicated in the bible? Are most Christian women committing fornication? What do you think?

I have not been involved with this person for 6 years and I found out that he is getting married. I don't have feelings for him - so why do I feel funny?

Many women have created this proverbial "list" that they want their potential partner to have. He must be tall, dark, or light, educated, with a home, no kids et cetera. Is there anything that you are willing to bend on if he fits your most important needs?

Personally, I am a little old school and would NEVER consider asking a man to marry me. Aside from it being romanitic, it is even a tad but biblical. Would you ever ask a man to marry you? Have you done this before? What was the result?

Okay so you get him a $100 shirt and you get a chia pet or a Walmart earring set. Are you upset? Is it really the thought that counts or are gifts an exstention of how someone feels about you? Continue

I had a good debate with my significant other about why many black men flock to Brazil for women, this is my side of the argument:
1. Black man state that they go because of how respectful the women are. Negro please, if you want someone subserviant, why not go to Africa or Mexico, Japan or China, where women tend to be that way too? Thhe flight prices are the same, the land is just as beautiful.
2. Black men go to Brazil because the women have Black womens attribute without being "all black"…

I must admit that the last episode was very entertaining, but it may as well have been conducted by hood chicks. Sheree and DesShawn were the only ones that kept their composure. I actually felt sorry for Kim because she really did not have it in her to defend herself, These women are well off and find the time to fight and yell like street chicks. I am from Atlanta and I hate that these women, who are not from here, were chosen to respresent my city. The women acted no different from the chicks…

I remember as a little chocolate girl feeling less pretty than my beautiful light skrinned cousin with long hair. I've also been told that I am pretty for a dark skinned woman. This is all silliness to me. At the same time, I have light skinned friends who I have seen be harassed for no apparent reason from darker skinned females. I am personally sick of the whole tirade---what do you think....

This post was prompted by a post on iseecolor.com a website initiated by author/radio host Michael Baisden. The reponses on the blog were from white women, black men, black women, and white men. The comments from black women ranged from hurt and anger to some women completely just not dating black men. What do you think? Should Black women just face the fact that Brothers are leaving us in droves?
