She Got a Big Ego

Who has a bigger ego: black men or black women? If you said black men, then you must not know of any black women and your only point of reference for black men are athletes and the rappers you've seen on TV.

A black man’s ego
It’s rare that you’ll come across a black man with an ego that is unfounded in anything reality-based. If you run across a black man with an ego, it’s built off of one of these 3 things (or in instances like DeGrate, all 3)…

1. Wealth – Whether he’s a multi-hundredaire, who just so happens to own every pair of Nike Foamposites or he’s actually paid,  there’s a level of smugness that comes along with a nigga getting money. You might not think what he has is “money”, but it doesn’t matter what you think. His bank account balance is $1000, his galaxy foamposites are exclusive, his Rock  Republic demin didn’t come from Kohl’s, and his ego is big.

2. Women – If he’s bedded/dated a lot of women (even if said women are merely mediocre) expect to hear him boasting about it during every conversation involving women… or really during every conversation involving anything. Niggas could be sitting around talking about the new Bentley truck, and this dude just so happens to bring up the bitch he fucked in ’02 who had a Bentley. Then the conversation turns to him fucking the Bentley bitch’s sister. Oh, and don’t forget that his baby mother is Bentley bitch’s best friend. This is the type of guy that assumes he wrote the book on “Getting Bitches”.

3. Actual Fucking Accomplishments – He’s got a master’s degree, opened a successful business, got a management position after only one year with the company, or all his baby mothers get along… you know the things that look good on paper and only really impress people who don’t really know that underneath it all he still ain’t shit. Niggas don’t graduate from Harvard everyday, B.

A black woman’s ego
Before I start this section, let me just remind all you bitches out there that egos can be healthy. I mean, if you don’t believe in yourself, no one else will, except maybe your mother. However, living in reality is also healthy. And, when it comes to black women, ego and reality typically do not go hand-in-hand. No matter what she looks like, her level of education, social status, or level of financial stability, she’s going to have an ego. The men that aren’t attracted to her obviously don’t like women. Other women that don’t think highly of her or find her actions objectionable are haters. And, we all know black women keep a lot of “haters”.

They have no real flaws
If you walk up to almost any black woman and ask her what her faults are, she’ll either: (A) Look at you like you’ve lost your fucking mind or (B) Say some silly shit like “I’m way too forgiving”. She doesn’t realize that carrying a 1500 dollar bag with only 300 in her savings account is a real problem. Having 3 kids from 3 different dudes doesn’t take away from her as person. Being 40 pounds overweight doesn’t make her any less desirable than some “skinny bitch”… Bitch please.

What she won’t do and who she won’t date
In my personal opinion, some people are way too unattractive to keep the word “no’ in their vocabularies. Now with that said, no matter how ordinary, or in some case less than ordinary (busted), she is, there’s shit she won’t do and certain types of guys she won’t date. They are above during laundry or tidying up their man’s house. That huge lump of pride in their chest won’t allow them to do such trivial task for their “him”. Just this week, I literally stood 4 feet from a 300lbs 5’3” ugly bitch who said she wouldn’t date 50 Cent… yes, the successful rapper/entrepreneur. It blew my fucking mind that this childless and manless 30 plus year old woman would turn down a date with 50 Cent. It took all the strength in my body not to ask her, “Who gave you standards?” Women that should have next to no standards due to physical, social, and/or financial reasons always turn their nose up at guys well within their league. She won’t date him because he’s got too many kids. She won’t date that guy because he’s under 5’8. She won’t date this guy because he doesn’t drive.  

Down to slander the next chick
I don’t watch reality TV, but I hear all about it via Twitter, FaceBook, and office gossip. You’d think these women they are calling stupid and immature didn’t make way more money than them, date guys well out of their league, and lead lives they can only dream of. They slander celebs and their peers alike; wholetime, they are on similar levels. How are you slandering Ochocinco’s joint for tapping the darkskin joint with the contacts, if you were just fighting in the club last Friday night? How dare you call Keisha from Southside a hoe, if your numbers are up there with hers… you just ain’t got the 3 seeds to prove it? What exactly makes you better than the joint with the full weave if you just “got a couple tracks in the middle to make it look thick”? You’d think these slandering hoes were living some sort of squeaky-clean charmed life.

Is your ego unwarranted?
Jean DeGrate has a big ego…  can back it up.

  1. Men's ego are not always based on truths. Its just a lot of women who boost their head up. Hard to tell a man he isn't the ish when every chick/nut huggin home boy is pumping his head up. But to each, his own.
