Good Guys vs. Thugs



Today I wanted to pose questions that the guys wanted to know the answer too. It seems that this questions as always needed to be addressed and what better way that to ask it straight out.

Why do women like the "thug types" versus the "good guy types"?

I believe that every woman goes through that thug phase. In the beginning, it is something fun and exciting. Similar to living on the wildside for a bit. I think thugs bring that false sense of security and roughness that women are drawn to initially. And to be real, sex with a thug can be quite the experience. No disrespect to the nice guys but it is true. But what many fail to realize is that you cannot pick and choose what characteristics you want from a thug. Most are thugs through and through. If he does dirt in the streets, he will do it to you. If he is very aggressive and violent in the streets, he will bring bring it home too. For most mature women, they grow out of the thug phase because they are seeking more in life. Give me a nice guy anyday.

I think women like both but especially a man with balance.

Every woman wants a man with some "edge" on him.

That's why women like the biker boys.

You have Alpha males that get a woman's juices flowing and then you have Beta males that give a woman the security and comfort she needs emotionally, financially and mentally.

Balance is the key.

A man can be both but most tend to lean to one extreme or the other.

Women don't like wussies.

Personally, I never liked thugs. I have always like educated smart men who understood how the streets worked but he was out there hustling on it. I prefer to date men who graduated from college, clean cut (no braids, yuck).

So in all honesty it would be hard for me to answer this question because I have never liked the "thug" type. I prefer Kanye over 50.............lol

MsClutchPearls said...

And let me add, just because a man went to college does not mean he can't be a thug, hence "Stringer Bell" characters. I just never was in to the persona of a thug which is gun toting, pants sagging, weed smoking, drug selling Type fellow.........is a no for me!

The insight has been very enlightening. I have heard women say they want a "thug in the bedroom, but a good guy everywhere else". I agree, there should be some balance to the equation. Harmoniousdeuce, I enjoyed your response. Well put.

LMAO @ "no braids, yuck"

Thank you pvu's finest!

I agree, balance is the key.

MsClutchPearls said...

Harmoniousdeuce,

all I am saying is how are they going to be a thug if they gotta sit between somebody's legs to get their braids did..........lol........I don't even know why "man braids" are still in....it's equilvalent to the Jheri curl to me......LMAO!

Big Texas said...

goog point harmoniousdeuce....its a phase, but not sure about the nice guys not giving it to you in the bed ... I do feel for the women that get brothers like that. I mean you have been waiting all that time and he don't give it to you like you want ..... that hurts men as a whole but it for sure makes it easier for some of us
LOL!!!!!
now sit between someones legs ..... pending the man pending where he sits. I went to the beauty shop and or a female house to get mine done in a chair. It was a phase just to see what I would look like with them. Once they grew out to a certain point went back to the look of professional world wants and expect.
One who is speaking on had braids but FAR from a thug.
I also think there is that middle ground and he is "hood" know the street game and life style maybe grew up around it or close to it but family raised him to not actually have to go that way. hood .. can get rough with you in the bed maybe even public and yet feed you fruit rub your feet, light your candles by the bath..... hood went to college have the degree but when you hear him talk in public you would never know Big Texas the Architect vs Big Texas the blogger
LOL
By the way afro there are clean cut thugs...... so you might have had a thug and didnt know. he was thuggin when not around you

MsClutchPearls said...

Big Texas, I know there are clean cut thugs, I am not impervious to believe that thugs come in a certain way. I know who I have dated, trust, none would qualify for the "thug" title.

Balance is what the consensus is saying and I would agree. Like you pointed out ain't afraid, knows the street but is still able to feed me fruit.......lol.

MsClutchPearls said...

And Big Texas.............It's AFRODESIA!!!!!!.............lol"Say It with me now" (said in a Pimp Name SlickBack voice"

Big Texas said...

For some reason I see control issues ...... is that on your resume?
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too much back talk ... remember day 1 Know your roll ..... oh yea you did say you knew and played your roll well ......
Might have to call and do a ref check cuz something is not adding up.
Say my name say my name thought that was a song by DC in like 98/99
Afrodesia ..... Afrodesia ..... you want me to slap it flip it rub down as well ......
LOL

MsClutchPearls said...

Big Texas,

Now how are you going to check my references when I never applied for the position in the first place......Now smack and flip that!.........lol........

one said...

just like every man wants a woman with a little freak in her...key word here is "little", every woman wants a man with an edge.

Edge - doing "IT" in off limit places, movies, park, club etc.

I don't look like a thug (I think)but at times the hood comes out of me but I know when to put it in check.

Wit women you gotta know when to hold them and when to fold them...you catch my drift.


No woman wants a stuffy stuffed suit boring straight up and down , by the book type of guy.

You never feel more alive than when your @$$ is in a sling! Thug types do that to women. You don't have to look the part to act the part.

I'm loving this blog:)Great dialog between real grown folks.

Big Texas said...

Richie Domino there were a few others you would have had a field day on lil "afrodesia"
She is speaking so we only here one version of "Confessions of Single Black Women!"
No confessions more like the MEN speak up in here on each topic I guess the women read and side e-mail.

one said...

LOL Big Texas

say it ain't so!

Shoot me an email Big Texas I got something for ya!

memphis.mix@gmail.com

MsClutchPearls said...

Lil Texas,

Have you taken your medication today? This blog has been in existence for 2 and half weeks. So I think we are doing pretty well for beginners in this. Now instead of complaining why not help fix the problems of the lack of women speaking up. Send an email out or something! Damn be productive and proactive not pessimistic and destructive!..............and I love ya like a play cousin!......lol

Anonymous said...

I was wondering where were all the women at as well? The only women I know that have spoken up are the ones who started the blog...where are ya'lls homegirls? I guess they are scared..I agree with Big Texas, sounds like it's just us guys in here talking....and the moderators..

WHERE ARE YOU COMPLAINING WOMEN AT??? LOL!!!!!! SPEAK UP!!!!!!!

Big Texas said...

lil texas???? hummmmm did I upset you???? Was just thinking we could express our views in here and be called names or it be considered complaining. So I see your trying to get into your roll by asking me the man to take the roll of leading getting people in the room and this after you wanting help with the topics. I got you mini fro
LOL!!!! I'll "Send an email out or something!" and be "productive and proactive not pessimistic and destructive!"
LOL!!!!! breath .... breath ..............
two weeks two years it really don't matter because the fact remains the females are not posting in this "Confessions of Single Black Women!"

Anonymous said...

lol that's right! where ARE the complaining women? We all know there is a surplus of them. Women really don't know what they want.

They want someone who can be sensitive, someone who can be a provider, someone who can beat the brakes off that "boneless cat" one night and make sweet love the next.

They want someone who'll listen, someone who'll go to jazz festivals and shYt with them and give them foot massages and someone who'll put their azz in check when they step outta line or from running their mouth too much.

They want a dude who can rock some loafers and flat front pants just as well as some timbs and carharts, lol! But I don't know how in the h3ll they expect to find ONE dude with all those attributes!

Now us men on the other hand, all we want is someone with a cute face, fat azz, slim waist and can act like a freak without actually BEING a freak. All that other shyt if OPTIONAL! We don't need or WANT to talk about feelings...we just want to feel you giving some head!

TAE

Asimplejoy said...

You cannot be serious........you talk like a man that is going through something. So I am not going to respond as harsh as I would normally. Cause clearly you need a break!!!!
But for you to sit up there and say that women want all that..........you are clearly stating it in a collective point of view because I don't know one woman that says she wants all that.
And as far as cute face, fat azz, etc. etc. I am sure you had that before and still was on some "BS" just like some women say they want this and that.....but when they get it they don't know how to treat that person men do the same thing. And if you say that you haven't had that before you know the cute face, fat azz maybe you need to step your game up. And maybe you should add ...thinks for herself, educated, gainfully employed, and seeking to improve. Think what woman you know is gonna be that fine with nothing else to offer and if so really how long will you be with her before you start missing the intellectual side of a conversation..
So Tae pick yourself up go have a "ME" day and calm down. Cause you are clearly looking for a robot and I saw this clip on Real Sex and they got those kinds of dummies you looking for. I am sure you can customize it for the cute face, slim waist, and fat azz and they give head.........and she will be as freaky as you want her to be and you can keep her in the closet

MsClutchPearls said...

Preach Sista Simple Joy,

When I read Tae post I said this is a fellow who never really experience love and he does not know how to want or desire anything other than sexual fantasies with the women he comes in contact with. It's sad because they are plenty of women that could be carbon copies of each other, usually guys with low self esteem go for the woman with no sense of reality because they know they would have to put in real work to stay with a virtuous woman, a woman with standards and principles.

Does ever man want the same qualities as Tae wants in a woman?

Anonymous said...

wow, i really was playing devil's advocate and being silly with a little truth thrown in there but that's where some of you women have it twisted...men really just don't require as much to deal with women.

You can say that we should want someone with substance because beauty will fade, but in reality we give a lot less of a shyt than you do about how 1, intelligent, 2,funny,or 3ambitious a woman is. Not to say that it doesnt matter at all but not as much as it does to you because 1, I can think for myself, 2, I can turn on the TV and get laughter from dave chappelle for example, and I make my own money.

Humans are the only species where opposite sexes relate on levels besides the instinctual dispositon to reproduce. The female human is the farthest removed from this innate blueprint. The only reason we relate PERIOD is because yall control 100% of the puss! Women would be in serious danger of becoming extinct if scientists could engineer something just like what you have.

This is relevant to the topic because women NEED to have various synapses and neurons triggered in order for certain things to occur and that occurence is required for another event to take place and so on.

For example, most women want a "thug type" to be emotionally stimulated because of proximity of the threat of danger. Danger raises adrenaline levels, raised adrenaline levels increase the heart rate, increased heart rate increases blood pressure EVERYWHERE blood flows in the body including breast tissue, clitoral tissue, skin tissue, etc.

All we need is to like to look at you!

Example:
#1 Condi Rice-well educated, highly ambitious, well-spoken, and does well financially

#2 Vida Guerra-high school, maybe some college, appears in every men's magazine in existence, flawless skin, owner of arguable the most perfect T&A known to man, not sure if anyone has heard her say more than 5 words at a time.

Who do you think has her pick of men in any demographic? (rhetoric)

Women are the ONLY beings that take EVERYTHING and dissect, cross reference, card catalog, and analyze it. FOR NO REASON!

For you seemingly uninformed women, I have absolutely NO problem attracting and keeping women. If I've upset or irritated someone, then I'm talking to you!

You don't have to like what I'm saying but it's the truth that most men are scared to tell you, and I'm not scared to say it.

oh, and so it can forever be consistently broke down...one big reason we care less about certain qualities is because women usually have a short shelf life in the eyes of some men. Why do you think some men when they hit mid life they're trying to ditch the old bag or hag and get them a "new" version of the old you???

Take a look at the former gov of NY, he had the life most folks could only dream of: heir to a family fortune worth half a billion dollars, high achieving children, live at one of the best addresses on 5th ave, and was an ivy league educated attorney married to a woman with a similar background: attorney, well spoken, from a "good" family, yadda yadda yadda.

It would be safe to say he wasn't attracted to wifey anymore and grew tired looking at 50 yr old slouchy cooch and went out and paid TOP DOLLAR for some 22yr old cooch! Of course he made the mistake of the century, but that further substantiates my argument.

And last time I checked this was confessions of SINGLE black women, about which I'm not surprised :(


plz dont take me seriously, I'm having fun

Big Texas said...

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds like he is speaking the truth and yes alot of truth.
wait was that a three part break down.
tick tick tick tick BOOOOOOMMMM!!!!
no need for me to add to that..... I guess we will be waiting 3 days for the next female to speak. Who's turn is next?

MsClutchPearls said...

He told the truth according to ignorant black men who cant think for themselves and who are scared to disagree because they may lose some "cool points" with the fellows...........yes..........let me say this, "A man who is not educated follows another man's belief" .........

And on that I am out to enjoy my three day weekend................lol.............holler!

MsClutchPearls said...

Oh and for the record yes this is a Confession of Single Black and at the bottom it should read, "Who are single by choice because we refuse to get to a relatioship with a no business barred insecure Muther..........F like you" (I got that from Dolemite......you likes?)

Asimplejoy said...

first of all "anonymous" it isn't about you finding someone to do things for you because you can't do them for yourself it is about finding someone or spending time with someone that compliments. And if you can do all that by yourself I am sure there are other things you can do "Solo" as well......if truth be told.
No one is saying that you need us to do anything for you but can we say "companionship" it is like this you have a network of friends are they not similiar in some way that makes you want to hang out with them and that you all have similiar interests, likes and dislikes. Now why is it when it comes to a woman you don't need this and that. Relationship is a friendship on a deeper level. And believe me you I am not trying to make you laugh and turn your TV on any darn way.

You know you want us to think you are kidding........but honestly I don't think you are.
I cannot believe that you would use Spitzer as an example. Who knows why that man cheated he could be sick and twisted and his wife wasn't going for it so he found someone else who would.
But to say that most men will trade in around 50 is absurd........If that is the case please don't get married and save your wife the wasted time.
And futhermore like my sista said you have never truly experienced any real feeling for anyone or anything for you to be so harsh.
And when does a person measure their life by someone else.
When you really start living please comment on this blog. Cause you have certainly been living in a bubble. A short shelf life are you talking about a person or a can of fruit.......Please come on man....
But you are titled to your opinion........but you need to lighten up. Life can't be that bad.

You all have a good weekend!!!!

Wow, it's funny how this brotha gives his comments and the women in here run for the hills......wow....guess the single black women don't want to hear the "true" confessions.......oh well......lol!

Anonymous said...

Sorry but none of you single black women are qualified enough to give me your opinion about what my experiences have been. All you have contributed were merely unfounded rants. And so someone disagrees with some of this female BS and they're uneducated? WoWWW!

I've been in several fulfilling relationships in my 31 years that were good while they lasted but had run their course.

Why women like thugs vs the good guys isn't really about your choice, but instead it's about the choice which one of those types chose to deal with you...we are the ones who select our mates, and mates doesn't necessarily = wife or monogamous partner.

Saying that attributes matter such as good personality, sensitivity, and brains is some female human fabricated crap. Men just DONT care about those things as much!

Whether you accept it or not, it's about natural selection, which I'm sure most of u women have no concept of this biological concept otherwise some of you'd have STFU a long time ago. Every living thing is genetically predisposed to wanna reproduce for starters. Males of any species seek out the best looking female with the best available physical attributes so that if their union produces offspring, the offspring has a better chance of surviving because of them being more physically appealing so they can continue to evolve the species.

Women are the only people that care about companionship and deep friendships and such. And the men that do care only care in order to gain a favorable connection with you in hopes of becoming intimate.

As far as cheating, why does a man have to be sick or twisted? I don't know a woman ALIVE who doesn't CHANGE her hair style at least once every other week. And that's just hair! It should be a piece of cake to have your hair styled the SAME EXACT way every time you go to the salon, but yall CANT! Because you want to switch it up and have some variety.

It's harder than YOU'll ever know to stay with a person who isn't the same as when you first got 'em.

Sometimes you can't just keep patching a flat, you gotta change it!

And I'm not anonymous, I'm TAE baby!
