Question For The People
Me and one of mi compadres are working on a project intended to educate, facilitate, and aid in procreate (-tion). And no it’s not a How To Have Safe Sex When All You Have Are Lifestyle Condoms seminar. It’s a project that just might open the flood gates for discussion amongst the sexes. Gender roles are turned on their ear and stereotypes are accepted as fact.
Thing is, in this little booky book, we’ve tackled some issues that were close to our hearts. Clearly we can’t tackle everything. But it got me to thinking recently (actually just like 10 minutes ago), women have so many questions for men, from why do we cheat to why come we don’t be e’en known how to ack rite, etc…but how often do men have questions for women?? When it comes to relationships, quite often women have more questions than a mothertrucker when it comes time to discuss shit whereas us menfolks tend to be more observers and listeners and answerers and debaters. We debate what was said without usually bringing much new shit to the table.
Hell, the most common question males probably ask females is: what the hell is wrong with you all?
It’s a valid question.
But I’ve come to realize, through life experience, that I have other questions. And I’d very much like it if I could get some help. I’m going to lay one major question out there and see what happens from there, mostly because I’d like to know. So let’s get to it.
There’s a notion amongst the womanly community that men know when we fuck up. We’re very clear when we’re in the wrong. Usually, when doing dirt, a man will try to slyly make up for it by overcompensating in some area he normally wouldn’t, causing suspicion and ultimately leading to his be-heading because women are indeed not dumb.
Crazy, but not dumb.
But this begs the question: when a woman fucks up, does she know it? As in, are women adept at realizing when they just might have pushed a motherfucker too far? Say he doesn’t try to stab you with a fork, or he doesn’t emotionally show that he’s been trampled on like a herd of wild Buffalo running over some cowboys in 1891…
If he never outwardly says, “I’m over this shit, you obviously don’t give a shit about me so fuck you and the horse you rode in on…”, do women know that they just might have done irreparable damage?
I don’t even want to get into whether or not the average women would care or not.
Basically, how much do women pay attention to fucking up relationships? Men apparently do it all the time, but women never get any credit for fucking shit up either. Do women assume that because the man has shown over time that he can’t let go that no damage has been done?
This is just something I’ve been thinking about lately. Does it stem from anything? Of course it does. Experience is the best teacher, but the experience just may not have been mine.
Cryptic much? You bet yer ass.
Oh and a special fuck you out to everybody for NOT telling me that motherfucking Akeelah and The Bee is a STARBUCKS ENTERTAINMENT production. Yes, quite much, fuck everybody who’s seen it and didn’t tell me causing me to spend 20 dollars of my hard earned money on a movie that the evil powers that be have brought to the Black community, the same community that they’re gonna be shipping our movie-watching asses out of soon…down with Starbucks.
So yes, fuck you very much.
