Give It To Me Baby

It's the men against the women again. Sort of...while having a discussion about Kobe and his wife the men began shouting. " She's a trifling bitch!!" " Another.."Why does she deserve half his money and a three estates?". Another shouted " He got robbed". But the discussion took a different turn when the women began to chime in. " Yes, getit girl", "That's right she deserved it, she put up with his ass for 10yrs." "She has his babies". Now keep in mind that there are only black women and men having this discussion and it came to an immediate shouting match when one of the men said. " That's why black men want white women, ya'll always trying to take money from us that you don't deserve?" WTF... Are white women immune to divorce, alimony and child support? What kind of statement is that. Ignorant that's what it was. White women have been getting half for years. And just a side note...Kobe's wife isn't a black woman. Do I agree with half, well as a matter of fact I don't. But, I do think that his wife and children should remain accoustomed to the lifestyle that he gave them. In certain cases where the man, is the cause ( because he cheats or just ups and decides that he needs a newer model) Hell yeah, she gets to get half , for putting up with his scandalous ass for years!!! He broke the contract, the only one that really counts the MARRIAGE contract, so in that case it should cause him half. Now back to this idiot. If you want to be with a white woman that is your choice. There is nothing wrong with it. No one can help who they love. However, do not blame black women for your choice. I'm tired of this cop out that black women are hard to get along with, angry, stubborn or whatever else you dig out. Women are women all over the world. We all have a good and bad side. We all go through bullshit with our men. We all get tired. Black women are not the only ones. Perhaps, we are quicker to come to the light and not take your bullshit. But,that's only logical.

Damn, the struggle continues...

I feel you on this one Wendy. Like you, I'm tired of hearing that black women ain't this or that. While there are those of us that have earned the stigma; the good majority of us do not. What men fail to realize is that THEY put themselves in these positions and then bitch and whine when they get busted.

Kobe's father pleaded with him to get a prenup and he didn't. Strike one. He cheated and she took him back. Strike two. He cheated again and she's had enough. Strike three; he's out!

Now, do I think she deserves 3 estates and $75 mil? Not necessarily, but as you said, she and her children should continue to live in the lifestyle they've grown accustomed to.

Affluent men and even those affluent women, need to strongly consider their actions when it involves their bank accounts and livelihood when they want to play with their marriage. What they have to loose is often far greater than what they have to gain. IJS!
