The Black Man Has Never Settled With One Woman - Shahrazad Ali

Shahrazad Ali who wrote the famous books "The Blackman's Guide To Understanding the Blackwoman" and "The Blackwoman's Guide To Understanding the Blackman" speaks on the practise of the black man's history regarding multiple wives. However, she does not advocate for men 'running around' to get with women just for sex, but for serious committed relationships, and a logical look at the harsh reality of non-monogamy.

The sistas are mad at the way Sista Ali says it but will turn around and sleep with a married man or have a child with a dude who has multiple women on the side.

AMEN. Reality is hard for a lot of people!!

In America, we have monogamy on paper but polygamy in practice. In other countries, they have polygamy on paper and polygamy in practice.

Yall mad as hell in these comments 🤣 Whether you're into polygamy or not men are still doing it. They just not telling you about it.

Whether I choose to have more than one woman at a time (I never have) I don’t think at this age I would want to be with a woman who DIDN’T understand this concept. I may not even do it but just the fact that a woman understands this reality and still chooses to stick by my side would make me not want to ever hurt her

[manxie]

She is telling the truth about our history

[rhapsodicchimera]

So her opinion is to just give in to what the man wants because we can't prevent him from doing it? Well while you can't prevent you can STILL make your own choices. I'd rather stay single than to deal with a man of multiple households. Half the time their not doing what they need to do in one household; so I should just willingly short change myself? Nah, abstinence and being happily single are always the best choice imo.

One major thing that is ALWAYS left out of this conversation is that polygamy was for powerful men of superior means. (Meaning men who could afford multiple woman Mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially. To preserve and expand a superior bloodline. Polygamy is not intended as this new age let’s ’build’ together bs. If he can’t establish himself alone he should be focusing attention on figuring out why not on collecting woman to leech from

"WHO'S RELIGION, WHO'S MORALS!!"" the most profound question ever asked!!

[jonsun]

The essence of truth combined with being honest with one's self in a relationship

[karmaharris]

As much as I hate to agree, she is correct.

[whytho]

Better stay single then, when the minimum standard of a healthy relationship that is loyalty can't be established.

[mariamsesay]

As a woman, I don't think any women with wisdom and understanding will reject their man having another woman, feelings aside. If the man she is with left her in a state of contentedness. I think the idea of having another woman in today society is more of fulfilling an urge/desire, rather than what it was intended for.

[miguelmunoz]

Never heard such hard facts before about Monogamy before 💯 reality is a hard pill to swallow

[rasheedaskari]

This woman is too deep for the average woman to comprehend.Too emotional to see what she is saying.

[xoxo-vpww]

So basically she’s saying they’ve never evolved. It’s one things if y’all agreed to a poly relationship and layed out all the rules, but to betray someone’s trust and turn their reality upside down and inside out, nah I can’t accept that.

[skemolehgen]

I respect her reasoning not just for the sake of sex and excusing the man to have more than 1 partners but the logics she speaks in her explanation of current events and how it is happening now even in monogamous relationship.

[deelee]

Can’t fall for this talk my sister been married since 96 and they been together ever since. Plus I been married for 7 seven years. Still love my boo thang and we’re still going strong. All I see is her…. This a huge world you have to get out there and find.

I approve this message. Shahrazad Ali is too real but before her time.
