Every thing you said is so true. You have to be retarded not to get this.

Black people are LATE

I definitely know what you mean, Talisa. I grew up around it. Thankfully, I didn't turn out like any of those toxic turds.

because it is toxicity in the end

I see so many black people putting on thicker, southern accents that are so obviously false. The challenge to not come off as corny is running rampant in the black community. Why don't we encourage each other to be ourselves more?

That's exactly how I feel.

I think a feeling of superiority might have something to do with it. If you're a (for lack of a better phrase) hood black person and you come across a well mannered, "model citizen" black person, you're probably going to feel threatened or feel like you're less than them intellectually. Which will in turn resort to you calling them corny in an effort to belittle them and make yourself feel like you came out on top.

This was an excellent read

Is this secretly about Ci becoming Whitewashed and corny a bit

[fedswatchin]

Intelligence is such a turn on for me.
Like huge turn on.

Strong sense of responsibility and leadership.

Ambition.

Key things I look for in a man - aside from the initial physical attraction.
I'm very careful of who I associate myself with. Too much going on right now for me to be playing stupid games.

since Ciara was brought up, this reminds me of thousands of niggas that tried to discredit Russell for being a "corny" and believed Future was a better fit for Ci because he's not corny, a real recognizes real type a nigga

Are blacks poisoning themselves? Are we our own toxin?

I think w/ Ci its a two-part discussion

I think that definitely falls into what you were talking about though In some senses because the hood definitely loves future lolz

But overall I think that for Ci, many girls just didn't seem to see how Russell and Ci would "click" because she was a....hood girl..at first.
So w/ Future it made sense --outside of him being a fuck nigga
I couldn't wrap my head around Ci and Russell's connection at first, until I saw that she became a Valley Girl

she's been valley for a long time so I never thought her and Future made sense. Because, to her core, she's more posh than not. She was 8 when she moved to Atlanta so that hood girl persona was never fully engrained in her.

A child that has travelled a lot within the formal operational stage of their life will find it hard to have an engrained personality. Our surroundings greatly affect our view of the world. Ci's kept changing because she was an army brat so it makes sense that she has a personality of her own that is sometimes not identifiable.

That also explains why she repped Atlanta so hard. That was the 1st place that probably felt like home

I completely see the point Talisa is making and completely agree with it. As someone that's attracted to the "nerdy" type and has a complete distaste for anything "hood" I totally relate. But I'm curious about something...

Is this in any way related to why you said in the other thread that you're bound to end up with someone white?

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

boy

Is there an issue ?

This is a good point.

This could even extend past 'corniness'. Black people tend to ostracize or look down on other blacks who aren't 'black' enough.

I read an interesting Twitter thread about creativity/nerdiness in brown Asian girls; how it's acceptable for girls in their culture to be intelligent enough to get good grades but still be girly and feminine, while if a girl is too creative or too much of a nerd, it's a bad thing.

It all just boils down to people being close-minded.

I'm sure other races deal with this. It can become as broad as "cool ppl vs. lames" but I don't see it inhibiting the growth of other races like I see it happening with my own people.

I've seen a number of black ppl get discouraged from not fitting into the cool category, so much so that they'll give up on their dreams or positions, because of those now ingrained feelings of inadequacy
