I was talking to a friend on Twitter @Kandacem, a professional black woman in Atlanta who runs her own Event Management and Consulting business. Kandace posted a Tweet about a man who had an interest in her but she had denied him. He then came back around wanting to influence her to change her mind with material possessions.
This interesting state of events begged the question: Do black men think black women can be easily pursuaded with money? Is this the culture that we live in even during a recession? Do black women hold money as a standard and rule for dating first and foremost and then find out who the person is after that?
As a man, I cannot answer this. I can give my opinion but I really need the ladies to answer. I was once dating someone for awhile and I showered her with gifts because I loved to do that. I loved seeing her face light up when I bought her a Louis Vuitton bag from Lenox or some jewelry from Tiffany’s. I must admit, I was very upset when she broke it off with me and I did accuse her of just wanting gifts and material items from me and accepted that while we were dating. I don’t really think that now because I believe in her heart that she’s a great person and not materialistic. Afterall, it was I that got the gifts. She never asked. And I do NOT think all black women just want to date money. I think the realest sistahs want true love and true relationships and want us to be there for them and find a best friend and mate.
A true relationship is like Michelle Obama and President Obama. She rode with him when his car had holes in the floor board!

WHEAT RIDGE, CO – NOVEMBER 21: A detail of a billboard lampooning President Barack Obama as a Mulsim stands over a used car lot on November 21, 2009 in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. Dealership owner Phil Wolf paid $2,500 to have the sign painted, and it has sparked controversy since it was put up the day before. Wolf, 57, said the dealership received more than a thousand calls from throughout the U.S. and Canada in a single day, both in support and against the sign. ‘We’ve had death threats. We had people call and say they were going to firebomb the place last night,’ he said, adding that local police provided overnight security outside the dealership because of the threats.
Wolf, a supporter of the ‘birther’ movement, questions President Obama’s citizenship. ‘We’ve got to recall our country, the election,’ he said. This guy (Obama), is illegal.’ He also blamed the President for the massacre at Ft. Hood. ‘The cavalier attitude taken by Mr. Obama towards the enemy within us is absolutely horrible. If I had a snake in the house, I would kill it,’ Wolf said. Several left-leaning advocacy groups have called on the public to boycott the auto dealership.
