Lately I've had many conversations with men and read many profile pages complaining about the fact that women seem to prefer thugs over "nice" men. Men have been wondering where all the women are who just want a regular Joe (or Jaheem for these purposes). While their arguments seem to be meant to garner sympathy and understanding, I just can't bring myself to feel sorry for them. After all, many of the men who are having these conversations are carrying them with "nice" women. Go figure.
While I do like a man who can function in the hood as well as the boardroom, I am in no way interested in a saggy pant wearing, platinum grill sportin', criminal record havin', gun totin', man. That said, I then have to wonder where all these nice men are and why they keep trying to talk to women who don't want them all the while ignoring the good women. The men who complain are just as guilty as the women they complain about. Just as so many women are prone to lovin' a thug, the men are prone to chase the ever elusive, "model chick". These women are often high-maintenance, shallow, and only interested in the man who is the flavor of the month. When she rejects him, he turns to the nice girl and starts complaining about how all women just want thugs. Excuse me, but isn't the woman you're complaining to a good woman? So fellas, the next time you complain about all the good ones chasing after thugs, maybe you should take a good look around you. You'll probably find a good woman that you passed up on your way to the closest model chick.
