'Church' that was an 'old school' idealism that was passed on to the current 'feminine gender'.
In our Grandmothers and Mothers days our Black women were not allowed, or did not work because of a insidious Western ideology of masculine male dominance. Men had to be the 'bread winners'.
Black women today have grown-up with the same idea__ that 'real men' should be the financial supporters of the partnership__understandably so.
The problem with that is, certain measures/policies in amerikkkan life as made it hard for Black men to lead their partnership. The de facto measures like, the preservation of white supremacy and other arbitrary powers have been used and deployed against black men to preserve our shortcomming in amerikkkan life. While on the other hand such programs like affirmative action, and other special privilage programs have allowed Black women along with other priviledge groups to gain momentum in the job market. The 'powers to be' have insidiously used these programs against Black men to keep them off the job market and into the jail systems, which in term perpectuates the dehumanization of Black men, the momumental eclispe of hope, the unprecedented collapse of meaning, and most of all the incredible disregard for the Mass of Black life. That along has caused a financial shift and responsibility in the natural universal role of true Black life.
I'm not suggesting that these factors by themselves have cause Black men to become self destructive, some of our problems are of our own, but we cannot dismiss the fact that these historical practices of plutocratic hegemony exist and has some sort of relevance to Black shortcommings.
This is nothing against my Black women, they took advantage of a cap in the workforce of amerikkkana democracy and made good at it__Then too, Black women have always been the driving force of regeneration of the Black community.(dap to that!)
However, they have to understand that this vicious ideology and practice of white supremacy has left and indelible mark on the sphere of Black men. We are fighting a daily battle of rooted Black masculinity in the face historial inequalities and longstanding cultural stereotypes.
So when a brotha' ask yall' fo' a hand in pay'n the dinner tab or a night out on the town, don't feed into the stereotypical bull**** that whitey has feed you--understand the process in which we come from.
So hold-on ma' sistas', weez coming, and when weez come, weez commin' stronga' that ever!
