For most ethnicities, there are more men married than women. For more information, check out the study published by the US Census Bureau.( http://www.census.gov/prod/2005pubs/p70-97.pdf ). I recommend brothers and sisters exercise patience and build better relationships. We should address the future of Black families in our community. I have several male friends that are financially stable, educated, corporate, and honorable. More importantly, their desire is to marry a black woman. With that said, let’s find a way to connect brothers and sisters in holy matrimony. What can we do as black people (African American, Afro-Latin, Caribbean, African, etc..) to strengthen the relationships between our men & women?

At the risk of sounding trite, we as a community still suffer from the much ingrained and inherited scars of slavery. We as a people lost our self-esteem, dignity, our families, and at the most extreme- our God. It is common sense that a family that upholds Christian values will have a more stable environment and productive offspring. Please keep in mind that I'm speaking in general and by no means denying exceptions to this. Christian (or whatever faith) households are more likely to stray from premarital sex, adultery, and other such vices. Since babies born out of wedlock are usually left on the mother to raise, our young men being brought out of these households have a serious lack of mail influence. They don't know how to approach a woman, take care of a woman, and certainly not how to treat one with respect. I think as a remedy to this we can start by instilling God (or Allah if the case may be ) back in our families and households. We need to raise the self-esteem and self-respect of our young people and then they can carry themselves appropriately. As long as the self-hatred that we have carried since slavery times lives within us, we can never hope to form loving households. At least, that's my take on the situation.

Re: Guys who want dimes, but they only a penny
Gotta disagree. I didn't see any notable resources and there was not quantitative data. Show me the raw data and let me interpret the numbers for myself.

ok from the guys forums, and my guy friends/ex boyfriends i've noticed that they all are searching for a dime. BUT many of the guys seaching for a dime are no more than a 5 themselves. Why do you girls think guys are like this? Do they think they look better than they do? Or are they just bold? From personal experience it seems the lower a guy is on the scale the more courage he has in approaching a girl. Then the guys that me and my friends drool over haven't EVER had a a girlfriend. What's the deal? Why all the busted dudes going for dimes, and the fine guys acting shy?
The reason nice looking guys don't approach women, is because they are used to being approached. Where as the ugly guys, are bold enough to approach women. That is why you are seeing more and more ugly guys with attactive women, because attractive women aren't going to approach a guy because they don't feel like they have to. That causes the attractive people to keep passing each other by. That is why the nice looking guys are single, because they think they are too good looking to go up to a woman. So they are letting all the ugly guys, get all the women! LOL For instance, Jay Z got him a beautiful woman simply because he was bold enough to approach Beyonce'. Beyonce has probably crossed professional athletes, actors, and all kind of attractive men, but simply because they didn't approach her, Jay Z pulled her. So I'm not mad at the ugly men, because they are acting how men are supposed to act. They are the ones who are supposed to show the interest first and go up to a woman. As Creflo Dollar said on one of his messages, "You can put some anointing on some ugly because cute don't pay the bills. Women aren't concerned with cute men anymore!"
