Do Black Men Marry Anymore?

On a recent forum I asked the question to some young

people about the decline in marriage in our community,

these were some of the responces.Here are two answers

that I felt were interesting!

-Roz

There are a myraid of factors to black men not marrying. We seem to have a entire generation of black men who don't understand love or marriage. If you only see that the rate of single parent homes exploded in the last 15 years it was to have an effect on the next gen.

Then you have to look at why things broke down and go beyond the last 15 years and dig into the last 30-40. Most know where I would take this so I won't waste my breath. It should be obvious.

Also on a surface level: Women to men ratio.

It is just too easy to do so much without personal consequence.Esp. when there are "other" women who would just as well fulfill every base desire of a man without having to require that he acutally act like/become a man. It gets to a point where they don't respond to true strength and love. They hardly even recognize it. It gets renamed as "attitude".

I think it important that we speak out to our friends and family. We have to let the "player" B.S. go, and tell young guys why it stupid to waste their time and energy on stupidity rather than building up their lives with a family. I think that men should be men and not go around having sex with whomever we can. Then we can start building some real wealth.

Do you have an answer?
