Oprah is the modern …
Oprah is the modern day sexless Aunt Jemima. That is why white women love her.
This is really is …
This is really is that real backwater exploitation. Wow. This is an insulting and very crafty on the a part of the media. And I for one am sick of it.
she helps whites …
she helps whites more because most of her viewers are white but it shouldnt matter, she should lean more towards helping her own race regardless of who the majority of her viewers are.
You’re right. And …
You’re right. And it’ll keep increasing… the anti-black male propaganda, that is.
Oprah had to pay a …
Oprah had to pay a high price for what she has. Sad she was willing to become the white mans dog.
Since the economy …
Since the economy went in the toilet, there have been more shows and news stories that make black people look bad. This is nothing more than an attempt by the media to make white people feel good about themselves.The black women who participated in the ABC special don’t know that they were being used make white people say, “At least we’re not them.” and “Look at how dysfunctional they are”. They kept playing, “If you loved it then you should have put a ring on it”.Bitch I guess nobody loved it.
It never ceases to …
It never ceases to amaze me that for all the BAs, masters and PHDs BW have, they are so dumb that they don’t know when they are being played. BW’s problems with finding a decent man are attributable to THEMSELVES, not black men in prison or black men not attending college. This is a complete and utter perennial fallacy. The sooner these idiot BW rid these platitudes from their vocabulary the better. They are a complete joke.
well that’s why I …
well that’s why I don’t watch Oprah…she caters to white people (white women in particular) all too much. I say good riddance to whenever her goes off the air!!
I have the solution …
I have the solution
put an apron on every black man, and have him be a stay-at-home father
then
put a brief case in the hand of every woman, and make them be a business mom.
problem solved.
thank me later.
Sometimes I wish …
Sometimes I wish they did a hidden camera show on these sistas and followed them around as they live their lives in Atlanta. I want to see what type of men these Spelman ladies deal with on a daily basis… Better yet what type of men they don’t WANT to deal with.
When that happens, finally there will be a reckoning…
JAMESj30t, thanks …
JAMESj30t, thanks for the reply and I must say that on the O. show S. Harvey was on w/black women, those women got on TV & said there were no good bm in ATLANTA & they were LYING. I have SEEN these bm from ages 19 up into their 60’s, well spoken, educated, NOT THUGS, shirts tucked into their pants- just regular guys. I have SEEN w/my own eyes. I saw/heard them in grocery stores, ect. Regular bm. Something is WRONG w/ those bw on Oprah to me. All they R doing is making us ALL look bad. I’m sorry.

Interesting analysis. You made some good points. Its been so ingrained into BW that its the BM fault they cannot accept they are part of the problem.
I get the feeling …
I get the feeling bw don’t want to CHANGE or COMPROMISE any part of themselves & Oprah has figured out that she’s pretty much wasting her time trying to get them to change. To me personally, MOST bw don’t even try to go to a gym and lose some weight to try to better-attract a man. They won’t compromise on anything so they stay single. Ophra has seen this, so she just tells them what they want to hear, like “Go girl” & sends them on their way, because that’s all they’ll listen to. End of story.
PINKKelephant, I’ve …
PINKKelephant, I’ve just listened to your great video and I’m sort of in shock “with” you. But in my humble opinion, there is something about BW to me that is “stuborn”, like they won’t listen. I honestly don’t think BW will ACCEPT a reason other than it’s bm’s fault they are alone. On the O. show that Steve Harvey came to, 6 bw were on close caption and one of them argued with Harvey over a pair of Christian Loubuton (sp?) shoes she didn’t want to give up. (cont..)
Yeah It’s hard to …
Yeah It’s hard to believe that she couldn’t get any Morehouse men to counterpoint the Spelmen ladies on national TV. It only shows that Oprah & her corporate paymasters have a distinct anti-black male agenda. Steve Harvey is from the baby boomer generation.
How can he speak on the relationship problems or lack thereof with today’s black youth between the common marrying ages of 24-34? I wish the sistas would pick up on this fact.
Black women… don’t believe the hype!
Cotillions are …
Cotillions are coming-of-age balls common in middle class white communities & upper class to elite black communities back in the day that introduced teenage boys & girls to each other. Sort of a way for young adults to learn how to properly conduct themselves in front of the opposite sex.
I just say that maybe this should be introduced to the middle & lower class black communities as a starting point for young black adults to learn how to interact with each other in a well-behaved manner.
I guess you don’t …
I guess you don’t know who Nate is. Not that it matters, but the guy that helped her, Nate, was gay. That woman seemed too picky just like the other black women you mentioned. She reminded me of Jennifer Anniston’s love life, wanting to date a 31 year old. In the end she didn’t want a second date with the guy.
@willia3r
Great …
@willia3r
Great points. Realtalk43 did a video not too long ago where he showed that the gap between statistics of educated BM vs BW is not anywhere near as big as the media makes it seem. It fact it was pretty close when you consider that there are significantly more black women then men. What’s interesting to me is that these shows that talk about this issue never actually compare stats of how many bm/bw have degrees. They just say that it’s lower than the women and leave it at that. Why?
Excellent point. …
Excellent point. Having Morehouse men, the direct counterparts to the Spelman women, would have made perfect sense. By not having Morehouse men on the show, she promotes the idea that BM are not in college, etc.

Oprah cant even get HERSELF a date…..so how the is she gonna help any other black woman get a date?
Seriously though. Yes…….we are being exploited. Change starts with the self though. Until women stop playing the blame game and instead make it a personal battle to transcend the self it will continue to be an ongoing battle.
Thanks for sharing!

I willia3r i’m not …
I willia3r i’m not 100% sure what you mean by Cotiilions. i hear what you are saying but truthfully the BC started falling apart in the early 1970’s so I would say 1960’s and earlier they were intact. I read an article talking about how the murder rate was already sky-rockiting in places like chicago in the early 70’s and the OOWL birthrate was skyrocketing as early as the 70’s too. I think it was more intact because of a little different moral culture back then.
you said that you …
you said that you and i quote “I can’t wait for the alpha black females with good leadership qualities to come out & call this bullcrap out.” so i was saying that i did. its above yours. well a couple of messages above you will see it if you find it
Also to add: Steve …
Also to add: Steve Harvey is of another generation, and the problems he faced at ages between 24-34 are different than the problems right by black men & women of yours and my generation.
If Oprah higlighted sistas from Spelman how come she didn’t bring on the Morehouse brothas across the street? That alone causes suspicions in my mind.
Yeah but Steve …
Yeah but Steve Harvey is a superstar & not a common man. Why bring in someone who by virtue of his fame & popularity will automatically get people to listen to him anyway?
Also Steve has big money as well so having him on undermines the message that us common black men have been giving which is: Why sistas aren’t looking at us on the come up?
Oprah should have common black men who are working & doing good for themselves checking the sistas, NOT superstars. She did it for white folks.
