Let there be no doubt, Black men love Black women.
Ask men what they love about Black women and some will
say they love the many hues of
a Black woman's skin--the reddish-brown cinnamons, the
golden honeys, the milk chocolates
and jet black coffees, no cream.
Ask others and they will say they love the Black
woman's inner temperament--
fragile and pretty like a teacup one minute, and hard
and complex like a Chinese puzzle the next.
Still others will say they love Black women because
Black women are the epitome of beauty,
the giver of life, a steadfast protector and a
nurturer.
They will say they love Black women because Black women
continue to walk proudly,
absording life's blows with grace and fortitude,
serving as the glue that holds together an
entire race of people.
Many men will say they love Black women, because, more
than any other woman in the world they are
the easiest to love.
And although Black men, like all men, sometimes have a
hard time showing it.
They will be the first to admit they cannot live
without Black women.
Her being is to be loved and cherished by her man,
she's a queen.
A true queen.
We love Black women because they are the mothers of our
Black future.
We love Black women because of their enduring strength,
a strength that at times has risen
above the failures of Black fathers.
We love their curly hair, their braided hair, their
straightened and even kinky hair.
We love their full lips, and of course, their brown
sugar skin. But most of all....
We love Black women because we are a product of a Black
woman.
Black men are born of Black women and influenced by the
Black women in our lives.
We have to be able to love Black women in order for us
to love ourselves
