“No man wants a woman who’s everywhere, doing everything with everybody. Turn down for what? A ring you hoodrat.” –Friendzoned “Nice Guy”

“In a world full of Kim Kardashians, be an Ayesha Curry” –Man Tweeting From His Mom’s Basement

I’m sure we’ve all seen these quotes posted online somewhere and if you’re anything like me, you rolled your eyes in annoyance too. Posts like these are so annoying. I believe there's someone out there for everyone but not every woman is concerned with being a wife. Also, why does she have to be a "hoodrat" for having an active social life? When did it become man's responsibility to dictate what makes a woman worthy of your ring and respect? You all barely know what you want anyway. Women have enough people telling them who and what they should be and how they should behave. The last thing they need is the advice of someone who equates her worth with the modesty of her wardrobe and frequency of her club visits. Who gave you that authority? Are you the type of man a woman would want to marry? Are you sure? Or are you a “nice guy” who believes he’s owed something because he didn’t receive the attention he thought he deserved in the past.

Women don’t wake up every day looking for your approval. Stop being so judgmental. Or do you all just read over that whole "judge not" portion of your bibles?? Live your life. Worry about improving your station in life. Think of ways to be of service to others. Work to end the injustices against women just as women show their unwavering support to men every day.

Or, Mind Your Business and Worry About Yourself!
