When will we wake up? (Food for thought)

When will we wake up?  (Food for thought)
Posted By: Stephen C. Walker on July 20, 2005


As a race, when will we wake up out of this nightmare? Men, wake up! Women, wake up!
When will these dudes stop treating these females like they are nothing more than people to sleep with, fracture their well-being? When will some females learn to stop treating their body as if it was nothing. Why do people feed into that crap? ("Game-spittin" and so on) Does it have to do with background? Maybe the way one was raised.



When will this stupid nonsense of Males and Females being "pimps" and "playas" fade out? Will it ever? The sooner it dissapears, the sooner we can stop decimating and destroying our race. Just food for thought:) Men, treat these females with respect, even though you might not think it. Women, treat your bodies with respect for christ sake. Treat it like god's temple. I know that it's going to take decades for some people to grasp on to this. WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES. They can be addressed and fixed through the lord himself. Everyone, Stay Blessed.

I agree with you a 100% percent. That would be the day when everyone treats everyone the way they want to be treated. I feel the world can do without some of the drama without some of the hurt and pain and suffering that seems to be going on. As a race the world can do without many things but until everyone is willing to make a change then the world for all will remain the same and thats the truth.

Yo u forgot to ask for some respect in return from these females. U seem to think the world of females and look down on us guys. I treat women right and still deal wit bull-ish. So make sure u dont sell urself short just to get some brownie points from the ladies.

Marquis, men and female ALL have their own problems. Im sorry that I overlooked addressing that. Im just so used to seeing males down the hell out of females down south. I witness that more than anything at state. Im just tellin ya what I see brother. If you think about it, the world IS kinda focused on females. Like I said, If they learn to treat their bodies with respect, then MAYBE the respect you give would fall into place and be returned to you. Food for thought. What makes you think I am trying to get brownie points by telling females to respect their bodies, huh? I could also very well tell us dudes to respect ours, but as a race alot of those dudes would sleep with anything walking. EVERYBODY has ups & downs. Just because I didnt address it dosent mean that I didnt mean to. Peace
