10 Reasons Why Black Women Are Insanely In Love With Black Men

Black Men Walk Like Kings … and Indeed They Are There is nothing quite as sexy as when a Black man walks like the king that he is. It’s something that makes women just melt at the very sight of it. From the way President Barack Obama makes his way to the podium to the long, confident strides of actor Boris Kodjoe through LAX, there is no denying the fact that there is a certain thing about the way Black men move that truly captures a woman’s eye. Street Smarts + Book Smarts a Powerful, Sexy Dialect Nobody does this better than a well-educated Black man. There is something about the combination of the type of casual lingo that every Black man tosses around with his homeboys with the sophisticated vocabulary that sounds like it was ripped straight from a page of the New York Times that combines to create an entirely new language that Black women just can’t resist. Black Men Understand Strong Black Women While the rest of the world foolishly tries to slander powerful Black women as rude, cold-hearted beings, Black men tend to understand that there is nothing but love and compassion underneath that shell. What others have misinterpreted as “rude” or “angry” is nothing more than our natural ability to protect our loved ones and stand our ground after years of oppressors taking away everything from control over our bodies to our feelings of self-respect. Black men not only understand these characteristics, but they embrace and nurture them as well. Black Men Allow Black Women to Become Soft Being strong and somewhat hard is an essential part of a Black woman’s means for survival in a racist, sexist world, but having a strong Black man around allows us to let that go. There is comfort in a Black man’s strength and security in his aggression that allow Black women to relax and feel safe. Black Men Love Black Women’s Hair … Sometimes More Than They Do Years of conditioning have left Black women feeling insecure about their natural hair. Many Black women still use chemicals to alter their natural hair texture simply because the mainstream media have convinced them that their kinky curls and voluminous ‘fros are nothing worth celebrating and embracing. Black men don’t feel the same way. Many Black men encourage Black women to embrace their natural hair and are supportive yet honest about the variety of new styling methods their ladies decide to try out. 'You Know I Love Your Brown Skin' Singer India Arie said it best. There is something about that brown skin that’s been “kissed by the sun” and it’s hard to resist it. From the light caramel shades to the sexy dark chocolate, a Black man’s skin has got to be one of his most attractive physical features. The Kissability of Thick, Full Lips This needs little to no explanation. When it comes down to it, every woman craves the feeling of full, soft lips caressing her skin. Black Men Know How to Take Control As previously stated, Black men are kings and they behave as such. Black men know how to take control and become a dominant figure in the relationship. It’s the difference between a man asking a woman where she wants to go for dinner and a man who surprises his lady with dinner reservations that have already been made. Black women spend so much time being dominant in their personal lives and fighting for the type of respect they truly deserve that there is nothing better than having a man who can take charge and sweep her off her feet once she gets home. Even the Strongest Black Man Is Still a Momma’s Boy Black men take charge. Black men tell it like it is. Black men are powerful. But when momma calls, that Black man will always be her little boy. The type of love and respect that most Black men have for their mothers is not only charming and sweet but it tells a lifelong story – a story of a young boy who grew up in the care of a woman he loved, cherished and vowed to protect. That lets women know that you understand why a woman deserves to be treated like a queen. Why Not Share a Future with Someone Who Shares Your Past There are those who may sympathize with Black women about their past, but the ones who will truly understand are the ones who are coming from that same history. Blacks have a unique history and a powerful culture that has evolved from it. Black people have grown to be resilient and strong, intelligent and wise, compassionate and understanding – and it’s because of the brutal realities that their ancestors were forced to face. On that same token, a history rooted in slavery and impacted by racism has had a countless number of negative effects on Black communities and Black people across the globe. When it comes to raising a Black child, pursuing certain careers and even trying to purchase a home – Black people have to abide by a different set of rules and push even harder than their white counterparts. Having a partner who truly understands this and will walk along that same rocky path is just one more thing that can help make the journey a little easier.
