Blue Collar Thugalicious Entrepreneur Killer‏

“You’ve got to have a J*O*B to get with me”… “I want a roughneck, gotta have a roughneck” two very commonly used phrases by women. Some even being so bold as to sing the phrases aloud, raising the praises of their friends and other females within earshot. “I heard that”, “I know that’s right chile!”

But when Keisha tells Amanda “well he has to have a career with benefits, a six figure salary, a 401k and drive a foreign car”. The music stops, plates are dropped and instead of praises we hear grunts and moans of wounded cows.

WHY?! Why can’t she want a man with a purpose, direction and means? Why is it ok to like, want, and need a thug, but not ok to desire that Mandingo who has conquered the world taken no prisoners and set up a palace for his beautiful Queen Bee? Ok I just drifted into my own fantasy but you get what I’m saying. Don’t you?

Seriously if someone could explain to me why many times settling, lowering standards and just not giving a damn equates to “keeping it real”. Honestly being true to yourself and knowing what you want is “keeping it real”. Don’t just go with the flow of your peers in order to dodge evil stares and harsh words like snob, stuck up, high maintenance, or gold digger.

Personally I like them all so it really makes no difference to me. Well I guess I can truly say that because I am married now. But ladies feel free to like who you like. As long as he is not thugging upside your head, stealing from your bank account, starting illegal businesses and scams, is making his money legitimately and taking care of his kids (all of them) (awl man I did not have to say that) then I wish you much love and happiness regardless of who you like.

While we are on the subject of love, “what do the lonely do at Christmas; what do they do? I will ponder for a bit and get back to you on that.
