I'm so happy and thankful I made it a point be a stay-at-home mom.
I loved raising my kids. I loved the process the dirt of it the tears of it the frustration of it Christmas Easter birthdays growth charts pediatrician appointments. I loved all of it.
Take motherhood: nobody ever thought of putting it on a moral pedestal until some brash feminists pointed out about a century ago that the pay is lousy and the career ladder nonexistent.
Prejudices are so to speak the mechanical instincts of men: through their prejudices they do without any effort many things they would find too difficult to think through to the point of resolving to do them.
The same principles which at first view lead to skepticism pursued to a certain point bring men back to common sense.
All men are liable to error and most men are in many points by passion or interest under temptation to it.
Most of us women like men you know it's just that we find them a constant disappointment.
Guys are simple... women are not simple and they always assume that men must be just as complicated as they are only way more mysterious. The whole point is guys are not thinking much. They are just what they appear to be. Tragically.
I cannot help fearing that men may reach a point where they look on every new theory as a danger every innovation as a toilsome trouble every social advance as a first step toward revolution and that they may absolutely refuse to move at all.
I try to speak my points of view about black America and how I feel about black men and the role that black men should play in their lives with their children and in their lives with their women.
