Literally, NOBODY is saying that we would have heaven on earth if we just got rid of hip-hop, or certain tendencies prevalent in hip-hop. "Reflecting" degraded conditions, ad infinitum, is no excuse. We must to be willing to reflect the highest ideals we wish to see externalized. And we MUST be willing to examine the influence of anything which seemingly promotes the values by which the very foundations of colonialism are founded and fed; blood-lust, lust for gold, narcissistic one-upmanship, ruthless ambition, and shallow objectification. MIC DROPPED.
@sweetlikez not sure if you had her for a class (I enrolled in one by her when she taught in CA) but let's just say she's even more incredible in an academic setting. Love Dr. Rose!
Actually no.Our society from a relationship standpoint is built upon men approaching women generally. Its actually basic psychology. Only the insane repeat the same thing and expect a different reaction. I was once one of the so-called "nice guys" and the finishing last part is very true. In college i flip the script and treated women the same way they treated me. SURPRISE! Positive responses. What incentive does a man have to respect a woman when his disrespect towards her gets him further?
That isn't making the first move. Some flirt just to flirt with no underlying meaning. So that's not a clear cut sign of you approaching someone. Now I know women don't like a push over, but the problem here is that they often confuse jerks for alpha males due to their direct demeanor. I learned to adopt that demeanor during my undergrad and I can tell you that it works. And a freak in the sheets isn't the same as being a bad girl. A bad girl is manipulative just like jerks. It doesn't translate
Don't you think the film 'lost in translation' was a film that got lost in translation? I mean, it wasn't THAT deep.. It would have been better if he or she fell in love with a Japanese boy or girl.. and if Japan came through as much more different than merely the setting for Yakuza movies and Blade Runner..
Not really, I played my games during my undergrad. Its a win some lose some kinda game, but I was surprised and later (now) disappointed in the way the game works. I'd assume it wouldn't work for many women in my circle. Once guys learn to replace the bad boy bravado with confidence (status, money, and looks don't hurt) you end up talking to more fulfilling women. The problem is wading through the bs to get there. But women are generally demanding so every guy should have a bad boy edge IMO.
Cont: Had to say this... Bad girls do not equal freaks. I know plenty of supposed bad girls who turned out to be sexual novices at best. A lady in the streets and a freak in the bed means a woman who handles business in public or private in order to get ahead in life, who also just happens to have an incredible sexual imagination. I know plenty of women who fit that bill as well. See a jerk doesn't equal a bedtime specialist no more than a good girl equals a bed time novice peep the differences
