Must You Be "Hard" All the Time?

Um what?
I stand by what I said. A REAL WOMAN does not put up with that bullshit. These little girls who have no idea what their self worth is, who they are or what they want in life want "thugs."
If the type of girls you are around seem to want the "bad boy" type, then again, you need to question yourself and the type of company you are either keeping or attracting.
I actually haven't seen another Black/Latino person in damn near a month. As a matter of fact....not since I've moved. I live in the Whitest possible fucking suburb ever.
Oh yeah, how do you explain all the kids on here who act hard? There's only like, what, three Black people on here including me. Who rarely post and when they do, they DO NOT try to act hard. (Ghetto Star, 2pacnbiggie)
Want to try again?
well the boyfriend you were with before, the one who tried to attack you and then was harassing you and all this other stuff you've talked about on this board in the past, he didn't sound like the best guy. in fact it sounds like he almost fits the "thug" type you're talking about. and yet you were attracted to him, you were with him for a long time. do you think that makes you not a "real woman" like those other women?
the thing is, it's not necessarily the asshole attitude that attracts women to these guys, but a lot of women are attracted to a lot of qualities these types possess, like cockines, or a larger than life personality, or maybe the fact that he's a tough guy makes them feel safe. there are many reasons why women are attracted to these types, and to me it seems a bit harsh for you to be saying they aren't real women when you have made the same mistake yourself.

You are assuming. My ex wasn't a "thug" at all. He was Manager in the marketing department at Sara Lee. He had his degree and graduated from Loyola University. He was the furthest possible thing from a thug. Was he the best guy? No. But I didn't know that until later. He started out as a diamond but ended up being nothing more than a cubic zirconia (sp?) There's no way to know what a person will turn into. However, if the person is an ass from the beginning you can kind of guess what type of person they are. But thanks for remembering so much about me though, makes me feel special.
I'm not going to lie or act "holier than thou" I've been attracted to guys who fit the "thug" description. However, I also had enough common sense not to talk to them or give them my valued precious time. Not only that, but that phase passed after HS. So, no I wasn't a "real woman" as a HS sophomore. Thanks :thumb:
Anyways, this is off topic. Is the point you're trying to make the immature females are the reason that men are immature?
well excuse me for making the mistake of thinking that a guy who you said once tried to attack you, and is now practically semi stalking you, may be a thug type. he sounds like a perfect gentleman.
that's not my point at all actually, i agree that it is off topic and not really what this discussion was about. i was only replying to what you said about how women don't want a punk or a tough guy, and i disagree with that sentiment to a degree. i don't think that women who are attracted to these types aren't real women tho, i believe that they just make mistakes in judgment. there are too many reasons why a woman would be attracted to them for me to label them all with the same brush as you have. and no i'm not saying that women who are attracted to these types are the reason that the guys are this way, i can't tell you why people think they have to act hard, other than what i already said in my first post.
and don't think you're so special for me to remember something you talked about on this board not all that long ago
it's not like it was years ago or something, the post about him threatening you a few weeks back reminded me about him lol

WHAT?? Oh hell no I'm a..... just joking! nah I know what your saying Syn, Don't be fooled though I don't let a female push me around, fuck that, I'm not your daddy or your husband buy your own shit, pay your own bills, I have 2 kids already I don't need a grown ass woman that acts like one! I'm not a push over but I also do not feel the need to fight over a woman or "act hard" to gain her interest, what you see is what you get, either accept me for me or keep it moving, I don't need you nor want you, my biggest pet peeves, a gold digging bitch or a woman who thinks that cause she has a pussy all men should fall before her feet. Hate that shit with a passion. I want a woman who will be my best friend, will listen will have my back, support an love me for what I am. I'm not a push over or a punk, and won't tolerate being treated like one.
I agree with you Syn cause for some reason I always seem to attract the wrong women, I dunno why but oh well, as of right now, I'm not even looking, I'm quite happy by myself! Less drama, less games, you know what I mean?? I KEEPS IT REAL SON! lol now where my gat so I can bust a cap in these bustas ass! lol j/k nah I'm just laying in the cut right now, not looking for anyone, if it happens it happens. Hey BTW I got rid of my 360
but I have a PS3 when ya coming over? :horny:People have been tired of it since it started, even rappers. Countless lines about it. Its not just guys either, its definitely girls too. Personally I hate people with that attitude like I dont give fuck, its really annoying and not impressive. I think you come out of it with maturity. It almost makes it no fun to go to clubs and shit anymore cus of the ones tryin to act hard, but whatever, its not a fad its just something almost everyone goes though. People grow up eventually.
I thought he was Asian? 
I'm in Michigan now, where are you??

Man, honestly i been around those guys all my life... and a certain point in my life i was like that. But I grew out of it. And for real, Guys that must be "hard" all the time, are usually the guys that arent hard at all. From personal experience, the heardest dudes i ever met in my life are also some of the realest, and down to earth guys. And no they dont act hard all the time. Most ppl act hard all the time to intimidate people, so they wont ever have to scrap for real.
I dont respect bad ass dudes anymore. I think they're stupid. I respect guys that are real men. They dont feel th need to mean mug everybody that walks by. They dont feel the need to brag about anything negative they've done. They dont feel the need to talk shit. They can mantain their composure, when somebody talks shit without a purpose. But if anybody dare hurt who they consider their family & friends, thats when they dont bother 'acting' hard, but show without talking what they're really capable of. Real men can take care of their loved ones, without being pussies.
.. and for real, alot of this acting hard thing also stems from girls being infatuated by it. Not all girls, just some of em. Personally I've had enough of those girls, and prefer a woman, that wants me to be a man, and protect whats mine and stand up for what i believe in.

Wtf? thats the whitest/most naiive thing I heard in my life. Not all urban kids try n act hard.. and not all black kids try and act hard.. infact not even a majority of them.
I've noticed, more dudes try n act hard in suburbs than they do in urban areas, cuz they can get away with that shit. People in rough neighborhoods dont try n act hard, people in rough neighborhoods generally mind their own business. Yes urban/rough areas have dudes that are hard, but the majority, is just a bunch of people that dont even wanna pretend to be hard, cuz they've really seen that shit. They dont try and mimick rappers, they see the real deal as they grow up.
And to me color, is not even a factor. I've met hard white guys, black guys, brown guys, asian guys, etc. And i've also met normal white, black, brown, asian, whatever guys. So that shit doesnt even mean anything anymore.

Naive is not the word you're looking for. Expand your vocab, please.
You cannot discard the connection between rap music and black and urban youth leading to bravado or "acting hard". It's not about "all".
Why do rich people move to the suburbs? Because there's less crime and less problems, for starters.
I would agree that "acting hard" cannot be associated with one group and one group only. But, I would say that in the contemporary scheme of things, urban youth who listen to rap music are most likely to "act hard" than suburban youth who listen to alternative.

It's just like that.....I have to prove something no matter where I go.... I think it gets rediculous if you front with beein' "hard" .... people talk to much..... I'm hard and everybody that knows me, knows that I'm for real, so I don't have to talk - I think that's the right approach....
