Maryland’s Black male street harassers: The Modern Day Coon

Sometimes pictures can tell a story of how black women perceive black male street harassers.  At times they coon, shuffle, clear their throat, jump in front of you while you walking, going grocery shopping, doing laundry on the highway, etc.  These inept ‘apes in heat’ are desperate for attention. They have no sincere interest in you, your safety or your sanity.

The primary perpetrators are dark-skinned black males with bug eyes and low education levels. They are disgusting: 1) they try to “slide” up next to you, follow you into a store, pretend like they are getting something from the same store as you and stand close enough to attempt a “dry” raping.  They are loud, belligerent, persistent, uncivilized and lawless.  There is a hard truth with what that Dutch Prime Minister said about these ghetto hood rats–some with blue collar jobs:  they have not been broken down into the civilization process.  The only issue with his statement is that he applied it to all Blacks which is inaccurate. Just low level, simian Black “Christian” males. Do not try to sugarcoat with terms such as “urban”, no they are ghetto and/or inner-city knuckle-dragging spawn of single motherhood let loose on Blacks who have properly integrated and work hard to make something of themselves and the victims are the ones who are from the stable nuclear household–the predator is not.

A lot of these buck dancing coons in Howard County (Jessup, Columbia–they trickle down from their ghettos of Baltimore City), Prince George’s County (Laurel, Savage, Lanham, New Carrolton, etc.) and Anne Arundel County (Laurel, Annapolis, Glen Burnie, Severn, Pasadena, Severna Park, etc.), Maryland. Not only are they uneducated or undereducated, blue collar (if employed), dark-skinned, but they are simply nasty, uncouth and think they can latch onto Sunni Muslim Black American women and other decent women. I applaud the police officers who properly rid the U.S. of these dark-skinned career criminals who oft-times commit crimes against women, including street harassment. It is just karma knocking, rather busting through the doors.  Decent Black Americans, especially Black women have thrown the welcome mat to these law enforcement officers and rightfully so.

The minstrel show used to be a mockery of up and coming Black Americans in middle class establishment. The irony it is an accurate depiction of today’s dark skinned Black “Christian” inner city, dirty, low-down, bum of a male.  Black male street harassers, one subset of modern day black demons cloaked in human flesh.

NOT INTERESTED. GET OVER YOURSELF AND GET A LIFE.

Blackman leave us alone (or will get the police to make you).

Interesting Post: Street Harassment Stops When Men Say it Stops

http://nicoleclarkconsulting.com/street-harassment-stop-when-men-say-it-stops/

Here is the text of her post:

The SlutWalk movement has taken over the world (or at least many major cities such as New York City, Toronto, Denver, and even in Delhi, India) and many believe that it has become one of the most successful feminist actions in the last 20 years. For those of you that haven’t heard of the movement, the first SlutWalk happened in April 2011 in Toronto, Canada after Canadian Constable Michael Sanguinetti, during a January 2011 York University campus safety forum stated that in order for women to be more safe, they should “avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized.”

For many women of color (myself included) the term “slut” doesn’t really conjure up the same type of emotions as perhaps “bitch” or “hoe”, but regardless of whatever term is used, the premise is still the same: we are living in a society that tells women that not only are we the weaker sex, but that we are responsible for making sure that men don’t attack, assault, harass, stalk or rape us. That’s a pretty tall order.

SlutWalk may be the “it” thing right now, but there has been an anti-street harassment movement brewing over the last several years. From The Line Campaign to Hollaback!, women are proclaiming that it’s time for men to really take a step back and realize the behaviors that they and their peers are participating in. Yet the sad thing about it is that women shouldn’t even be the ones leading this effort. How many women do you know stand on corners and stare at and try to speak to every man that walks by? How many women do you know will tell a man that if he weren’t outside at a certain time of night/weren’t wearing certain types of clothing/weren’t drunk/weren’t trying to flirt that it’s his fault for whatever happens to him? No, I don’t think it’s women’s responsibility to tell men that this type of behavior is inappropriate. No, I don’t think that women should live in fear or in annoyance when they see a group of men standing on the corner. And no, I don’t think women should be the main ones marching by the thousands to tell men just how ridiculous their logic is for thinking that a woman deserves to be sexually assaulted or called out her name due to what she’s wearing or how she turns down a man’s advances. Street harassment and all violence against women will stop once men decide to stand up and declare that it stops.

*Where is my soap box?*

I first experienced street harassment during my freshman year of college. My friends and I would walk to the train station or to the grocery store. We would hear voices from strangers that we would pass on the sidewalk, or we’d hear voices from cars that have suddenly slowed their pace. I remember us ignoring the voices mostly, but when it got to the point where these voices would begin following us, we all would be uncomfortable. And oftentimes the silent stares were more uncomfortable than the comments. Even in the warmer months I would try to get away with wearing tops with long sleeves or carry my school bag in a way that would hide my buttocks. At that time, I didn’t know that the term “street harassment” even existed. I just knew the feeling I had, and it wasn’t good. I used to hate walking to the nearby shopping area or the train station out of fear of someone speaking to me inappropriately. Yet, as I went through college I went from feeling embarrassed to feeling apathetic. I once thought that this problem was only within the confines of the surrounding area of my campus, but obviously I was wrong. I’m nearing age 30, and at times I still resort to these “prevention methods”, and have now graduated to wearing earbuds to blast music and drown out the catcalls.

Street harassment comes in a variety of forms: catcalling, groping, sexually explicit comments, someone honking their horn at you as you walk down the street (and it’s not to ask for directions), grabbing your arm with no indication that you even wanted to be touched, whistling, someone telling you what they would do to you sexually if you were alone, and even someone leaning into you and saying “hello beautiful” as you walk down by (because it is, in fact, getting into your personal space.)

Many women and girls are harassed daily, and many feel helpless to stop it. In an attempt to prevent street harassment from happening, we begin to limit the amount of time we spend outside or we make sure that we’re not out at certain times of night. We begin to wear baggy or unflattering clothing. But these acts don’t deter individuals from harassing us. Street harassment can lead to violence, and it doesn’t matter what race or ethnicity you are. Many of us do not do anything about street harassment because we’re afraid that we’ll be placed in harm’s way. And that’s the rub. You never know how a man is going to react once you make the decision to put him in his place. Which it why I understand the purpose of movements like SlutWalk. Thousands of women (and many male supporters) coming together to let these men know that this type of behavior will not be tolerated anymore seems more powerful and doesn’t really place a woman in harm’s way compared to going at it alone.

Now that we know what street harassment is, let’s discuss what street harassment prevention is not:

Street harassment prevention is not about women taking self defense classes. My college’s public safety department held a self-defense class during freshman orientation week, and after the class we received a whistle. The whistle was for using against someone if we felt that we were unsafe. The students on my campus were the only ones with these whistles, and I never knew of any student who actually used their whistle. On top of that, the whistles were a joke throughout the university center. This isn’t to demean the purpose of taking self-defense classes because there are people who feel that they are necessary. However, instead of bringing women in to take self defense classes and have mace and whistles at our disposal, perhaps we should create more programs that help men to recognize street harassment and to find ways to help change their behaviors.

Street harassment prevention is not about letting men duck responsibility. The “boys will be boys” mentality has to stop. By not speaking out about street harassment (in whichever way you choose) we’re telling men that they aren’t responsible for their actions and aren’t capable of controlling themselves. If I were a man, I would be very offended by this. And if you watch this video about boys being microwaves and girls being crockpots, you’ll understand what I’m talking about.

Street harassment prevention is not about women solely being responsible for speaking up. A man who watches his friend street harass someone and doesn’t say anything is no different from the actual harasser. I’ve seen plenty of incidences where a group of men would stand idly by with blank expressions on their faces while one of them disrespects a woman passing by. I’ve heard men say that they’ve been afraid to say anything, even though they know it’s wrong. Would these same men be afraid to speak up if the woman being harassed was their mother or sister? If a man feels afraid to speak up for what he knows is right (i.e., telling his friend that he needs to check his behavior), that says a lot about the type of person a man chooses to surround himself with…and it says a lot about him. This actually makes me feel sorry for younger men who participate in street harassment. Along with the media’s influence, where else are they learning this behavior? Who else? Their older counterparts.

Street harassment prevention is not about what a woman is wearing. If it were really about clothing, women in the Middle East who are walking around completely covered up in broad daylight wouldn’t be getting assaulted or harassed.

Street harassment is deeply ingrained in communities of color, which is why many don’t see it as a problem. Street harassment will continue to prevail until men stand up and decide that this behavior needs to stop. We need to teach young men how to treat a woman with respect. We need to teach young men that what they’re listening to, reading, and watching on television may not be how a woman expects to be treated. We need to teach young men that it’s OK to tell their older counterparts that how they behave towards women is unacceptable. Street harassment will continue to also prevail because, unfortunately, there are women who respond to it. Along with men standing up and taking responsibility, we need to teach ourselves and our young women that we are more than just entities that should be hollered at on the street. We need to teach young women that it should require a little more creativity for a man to get our attention. And honking a car horn shouldn’t be one of them.

Street harassment, physical violence, and sexual violence against women won’t stop because we as women want it to stop. It stops when men decide that it stops.

*hops off soapbox*

END OF HER POST


My reminder: Like I said 98% of street harassers are black males, the first step in solving a problem is admitting that there is one. In the State of Maryland, Black “Christian” males are the problem. They are domestic terrorists in more ways than one and the Black woman is the proverbial and literal carnage.

 

Three Characteristics of Black Male Street Harassers

In the State of Maryland, especially in counties such as Howard, Prince George’s Anne Arundel and Baltimore County (and of course Baltimore City) there are three distinguishable traits that any decent woman can discern from the typical black male street harasser.  They are quite reminiscent of what normal functioning, intelligent children are taught and grasp the concept of basic respect of human beings who may cross their paths in normal everyday settings.

1) The black male street harassers a/k/a apes in heat have nothing “nice” or proper to say to their intended targets. [If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all].  They are flustered and frustrated and because of the lack of intelligence they are dumbfounded as to why a decent woman not only rejects their inappropriate (and criminal) behavior but is simply disgusted and repelled by it as well.  No worries, the black male street harasser will pursue his own form of self therapy by designating decent women who reject them as “crazy,” “stuck up,” and “she ain’t right.” Yes, to these social vultures a decent woman who demands to be treated with respect and not have unattractive, disrespectful, ghetto black boys further disrupt her personal space or her day is dismissively deemed by them is not right. PSA to black male street harassers: You are not right! You disrespect religious women, decent women (regardless of belief system) and women who mind their business.  You cannot handle rejection because you are constantly coddled by your Black “Christian’ mother who sees you as either her free ride ticket ala welfare or her mate replacement due to single motherhood.

Therefore, your only line of attack is to insult, in the more ways than one. You see putting your hands on a TOTAL STRANGER is beyond an insult, it is criminal. Verbally abusing a woman because she has ABSOLUTELY no interest in your kind is an insult. The world does not revolve around you. Decent women of color should not have to tolerate your abuse, sexual harassment and sexual assault just because you think “she’s cute.” You are disgusting and reptilian and you deserve every form of disdain society has to offer.  Yet, you have the unintelligent and misinformed audacity to insult decent, innocent women who know better than to tolerate your ignorance, foolishness and crimes.   Get over yourself and stay out of our faces:  especially the ugly, dark-skinned, uneducated, uncivilized black males in Howard County and Prince George’s County, Maryland.  You are the reason white flight is rampant. Please also note that 98% today’s dark-skinned black male “Christians” who street harass.

2) They have an INABILITY to keep their hands to themselves.  [Keep your hands to yourself].  There are subtle, not so subtle and extreme behaviors on this criminal spectrum.  The first is to pretend to “brush” by their intended victims.  Yes, black males at Howard County Library on Cradlerock Road, Columbia, Maryland including the old black male librarian with the greying beard is guilty of this.  Of course they only do this to black female patrons.  They will also do this at grocery stores, box stores, restaurants, any place there is a female and a black male she will likely be a victim.  Of course there is the most obvious, trying to touch you:  standing too close behind you in the line as they prepare to “dry” rape you. Reaching out to GRAB a woman’s arm or hand while she uses a computer or walking on a public sidewalk.  The most obvious is the grope; this touching is distinguishable from the just mentioned one as this is geared towards a woman’s private parts (including that which lies below her décolletage).  Black males today (this is particularly acute among the dark-skinned ones) are generally black devils.  They are in a constant wicked mode of sniffing, plotting and trying to “slide up next to” a TOTAL stranger in order to street harass and rape his intended female target.  Black males in Maryland are naturally uncouthe, sinister, disrespectful, annoying, social rapists who try to play the victim card (as a black male) when in reality they are the criminals, the perpetrators and predators let loose on decent society where no woman is safe. Broad daylight, makes no difference, it just emboldens them as civil society remain in shock that they are allowed to roam the streets without repurcussion for their actions.  Make sure that there are consequences and file charges for EVERY offense these black predators do. Street harassment, sexual assault, verbal harassment, stalking, are all not only immnoral (of course they are not bound by a center of ethos) but it is ILLEGAL.  Make them pay until they can no longer be amongst civilized society.

3) Black “Christian” males in today’s Maryland like to buck their eyes and attempt to intimidate and make women feel uncomfortable when they are in your presence. [It’s not polite to stare]. There is a saying that the eyes are the window into one’s soul.  It is can be an intimate exchange or an invasive tactic.  The purpose of this black male tactic is to make a women feel vulnerable. These bug eyes dark skinned black males use your moment of feeling uncomfortable or intimidated as the prime opportunity to pounce on a woman’s natural fear of them.  Black males respect no women in Maryland, they may be hesitant towards white women only because white males will lynch them, but they still don’t respect them.  Women in the eyes of the majority of ugly, dark-skinned black males are the object to be abused, conquered and destroyed for their Satanic jollies and thumb about their hateful and disrespectful exploits on their technological devices.

It would be easy to say to simply ignore it, but this is today’s dark-skinned black males. They will literally jump in your face, get loud and speak to a total stranger with inappropriate familiarity in order to disrespect you because they hate themselves. Notice that these societal rejects and low brow Negroes RARERLY if ever do this to white women. Black males have no compunction about disrespecting Black women, doesn’t matter if you are Catholic, Baptist, a covered Muslim, black males hate that from which they came and believe that because of the mistaken coddling that their black mothers poorly indoctrinated into them, black woman who are total strangers owe the same to them. When you do not you will be erroneously and heartlessly accused of “thinking that you’re white” when all you are doing is being a decent woman.  Black male street harassers live their lives as low-life animals and realize that animals belong with animals and thus they are faced with the reality of their own lack of humanity.

Black man get out of my face, stop being disrespectful and most of all: Black man leave me alone.

Street harassed at TechWorld Post Office, Washington, D.C.

During the time I worked in Washington, D.C. I would sometimes use the Post Office located at the TechWorld Building in N.W., Washington, D.C..

A pattern emerged where Black male “Christian” security guard(s) would literally jump into my face and block my access to the descending escalator to the Post Office. These happened several times and they would snicker “Hi, how you doin?’

I would continue to walk and ignore them and noticed there were two Black male security guards, also in uniform seated at the desks near the main entry scan if you wre entering the main portion of the building. These onlookers in uniformed stared at me as if this was normal and that I was supposed to acquiesce to this unwanted behavior. Not one told their co workers to stop or to leave me alone. Nor did the perpetrators bother or hit on any of the white women who were on their way to work or otherwise passing by.

After my ignoring them did not have the effect I sought, I later contacted the Administration and was given information about the contracting business responsible for their hire. So, I ended up speaking to a supervisor who was ranked a sergeant and let him know how his subordinates were conducting themselves.

I said “They aren’t bothering any of those white women walking by. Here I am covered, a professional and they are calling out to me like that. If I was a white woman they wouldn’t be bothering me.” Granted, the sergeant listened and seemed to agree, he let me know he would handle it.

During the time period I was working in that area of D.C. and using that post office it did not happen again.

Black males in their capacity of employment of branded businesses, sexually street harass customers, by standers and co workers ALL the time. Do not wonder why businesses do not want to hire your licentious species.

Two Separate Conversations with Sunni Muslim Women:  Black “Christian” Males Are Sexual Harassers and are Nasty

One day I was at a retail store when a younger (continental) African woman who worked there asked if I needed assistance. As I was looking for a scarf we discussed higher education. As the conversation progressed we discovered we had something else in common–black Christian males are disrespectful and continuously sexually harass Sunni Muslim women. Although I wear hijab and modest clothing and she doesn’t the result was the same. Interestingly, she referred to black “Christian” males as unattractive and thugs, and that she preferred white men, sentiments shared by many highly educated Sunni Muslim Black women.

Another conversation I had was with a Sunni Muslim Black woman from the West Coast. We met at an Islamic celebration and she revealed she was married to a white man who converted to Islam whom I met towards the end of the event. As we talked, I asked her why did she and her family move to Maryland. She stated the environment was not condiucive to raising a family and black (Christian) males sexually/street harassed her even when she had her chidren with her. Although she  is a covered, Sunni, practicing married woman, she too endured years of black male harassers. Knowing how ignorant and uncivilized black men are she was probably harassed for being in a interracial marriage. Why do black Christian males and women insist on imposing their insidious views on Sunni Muslim Black women who do not share religious or cultural beliefs with them and are at peace with their choices? It is because they have no peace, are unhappy and jealous and want to mock and destroy Sunni Muslim Black women who share little or nothing in common in common with them religious wise or culturally.

I must admit I was surprised that their family moved to Maryland/DC area where the same type of thugs persist. However, after discussing real estate and how her family can purchase farm land and be further away, I understood that in California it is nearly impossible to do so.

Interesting to note that these black male thugs do not bother Arab or South Asian Muslims because black males have a special hatred of seeing successful, religious women at peace. For some reason they harbor a special IDIOTIC and IRRATIONAL notion that skin pigmentation grants them a right to cat call, sexually harass and otherwise make women of color uncomfortable with their disrespectful and diabolical behavior. These sexual black “Christian” predators will rape you, assault you, invade your space, intercept your conversation, threaten you, call you out your name, molest you, try to embarrass you–yet wonder why you stay away and avoid their presence. This type of behavior gives credence to racists who promote the bell curve as black men do not act responsibly or with intelligence on a daily basis in civilized society. These deviants pillaged and devastated their own “black Christian” community (with health issues and illegitimate children/children they don’t care for) and now attempt to infiltrate the Sunni Muslim community with the same. We have our eyes on you (all of us). They mock G-d, modest, decent women and G-d’s creation, yet they think they have a right to G-d fearing women simply because we exist? Only demons believe such foolishness.

Two separate conversations, two different Sunni Muslim women of color, from two different parts of the world and the same problem: nasty, black “Christian” sexual/street harassers. They are a plague and are everywhere. God help us all.

Just a Thought: Black Male Hypocrisy and Street Harassment

Black Male Hypocrisy and Street Harassment

Recently, there has been a wave of news reports regarding law enforcement officers harassing and or killing unarmed black men. What these news reports fail to emphasize is that most of the time police are within their rights to question someone who is a suspect when a crime has been freshly committed. It’s interesting that black males who are reasonably suspected of a crime receive protests and outrage from the Black community but the voices of these anti-system protesters when INNOCENT Black women are harassed and sometimes killed as a result of sexual/street harassment are but a faint whisper…

These black women are not guilty or suspected of a crime, yet the black community will yell at the top of their lungs on behalf of many a black
man who was reasonably suspected of such. That is because the black community including Black women of the old guard do not see value in Black women and Black girls. Blacks will teach their daughters to shake things off or it is not a big deal or that is how men are. In other words these crazed enablers attempt to inculcate a sense of guilt, shame or less value in the life worth of Black women and girls including their bodily integrity. Older black women are guilty of this oft times from jealousy of seeing younger generations with greater opportunites in life due to changes in social circumstances. The former black actually enabling Black men in this behavior because their ex-husbands, boyfriends, rapists or baby daddies left them with little mouths to feed, no child support and no self-esteem. So these women call their sons “little man” and emotionally use them to replace the social and psychological void of single motherhood. ‘Little man’ grows up thinking that ANY Black women are to serve whatever needs they have whether it be monetary, sexual and psychological and seek these from total strangers who are Black women. These Black men who usually accuse women of being “emotional” have a grave sense of entitlement reminiscent of their welfare mothers mentality towards the government. They know this mentality is wrong but seek to force society, especially decent Black women into catering to it.  Since the generations of Black women grew stronger and more educated she looks upon Black men with disdain as their predatory behavior has no place in civilized society… 

Black men you decry and whine about law enforcement officers harassing you even when they have cause, yet you harass, stalk, molest, cat-call, deride and abuse women, in particular Black women who are total strangers–have you not heard of karma? or justice? Payback for all those times you harassed and put innocent women safety and lives in danger and imposing post traumatic stress syndrome because you cannot simply two letters of the English alphabet N-O.

Maybe, just maybe the universe is giving you exactly what you deserve.

No Surprise: Black Men Sexual Harass and Brutally Beat White Woman and Boyfriend

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/09/06/Black-Gang-Beats-White-Couple-in-Missouri-After-Sexually-Harassing-Woman

BLACK GANG BEATS WHITE COUPLE IN MISSOURI AFTER SEXUALLY HARASSING WOMAN

by WARNER TODD HUSTON  6 Sep 2014 

Police in Springfield, Missouri released shocking surveillance footage of a gang of six black males viciously attacking a man and his girlfriend in a driveway near a downtown nightclub.

The woman, Meredith Cole, told police she was sexually harassed outside the club by several of the black males on August 22. She quickly went inside to retrieve her boyfriend, Alex Vassey, a DJ at the Outland Ballroom. The pair then went outside to see if they could identify any of the harassers.
Once out on the street, a gang of six black youths snuck up behind them and started attacking the couple, beating them in their faces and kicking Vassey after he was knocked to the ground.
The video clearly shows Vassey being viciously assaulted, as well as showing the young woman being punched in the face and knocked to the ground twice.
The victims were both sent to the hospital and treated for multiple contusions, bruises, and cuts. Cole also suffered a fractured ankle.
Police were not able to apprehend any of the perpetrators and ask that if anyone recognizes the attackers in the video that they should call Crime Stoppers at (417) 869-TIPS (8477).
 

Another Black Woman’s Story: Black Men Keep Sexually/Street Harassing Her

Disgusting Black Men Never Stop…They carry the mark of Satan–troublemaking, debauchery and sinister lust. Here is her story:

“My Name is NOT Baby,” a Rant About Street Harassment and Discrimination
MARCH 11, 2014 | ** GUEST AUTHOR ** |

One day, I was standing outside of a store waiting for my dad to meet me. While I was waiting, I made a phone call to my mom. While I was on the phone, I was approached my a man who was obviously more than twice my age who tried to engage me in a separate conversation. “Hey baby. I like them pants. What you up to tonight?” While there are so many ways in which I could have responded to him, I settled for a simple “I can’t talk right now, I’m on the phone” which he followed up with “Damn, girl I’m just trying to get to know you”. I suppressed a severe eye-roll and politely asked him to please leave me alone. When I didn’t respond to his advances, he proceeded to berate me with so many variations of “prude bitch”, my head began to spin.

I can’t walk down the street, pump gas into my car, shop in a grocery store, even sit in church without a man feeling entitled to harass me. They tell me to smile, they follow me around, they stare and whistle and honk their horns at my backside. They reach out and touch me without my permission.  Some even take pictures!

When I don’t acknowledge the man cat calling me from across the street, I’m a Stuck Up Bitch. All because I inform a man that my name is not “baby“, “sweetie“, or “ma“. I’m told “If I don’t want attention, I shouldn’t dress so attractively.” Some would say I shouldn’t be offended. This isn’t harassment, this is a compliment. If my boss, a strange man on the street, a security guard or store clerk wants to talk to me or stare at me or compliment me or follow me around, it’s just because they think I’m attractive. I should be honored. Shouldn’t I?

Let me go on record and say no, I shouldn’t be honored. This type of behavior isn’t a compliment, it’s harassment. I’m not obligated to smile just because a man wants me to. I don’t exist for the visual pleasure of men. I’d don’t have to speak to satisfy a man’s physical attraction to me or perceived “courage” in approaching me. And I’m not a bitch just because I don’t want to talk to a man I have no interest in.

Society has not changes much since the days in which Nathaniel Hawthorne penned “The Scarlet Letter“. Women are still judged harshly for our actions (and for our inaction). Only instead of having embroidered letters slapped upon our breast, we are instead being stamped with #hashtags in social media and with harsh labels from society and our peers.

Women in bad romantic relationships are labeled #SideLineChicks, #Sluts, #Hoes, etc. As if being in their predicament represents a character flaw on their part, not on the man who created the love triangle. A women who is assertive, aggressive, and is confident is labeled a #Bitch or #Bossy. A woman who enjoys sex and explores her sexuality is called a #Whore. When I don’t want to give my phone number to a stranger, I’m #StuckUp. A man being the boss, having sex as much sex as he wants, or wanting to be left alone is labeled a man.

What gives men the perceived right to label, ridicule, harass and demean women they don’t even know? Why is the biological fact that they are “men” enough for them to communicate with and about women in any kind of way? People say “that’s just how boys act” … “oh, he’s just being a man”. To me that’s barely an excuse. How can a man born of a woman be naturally inclined to treat women with disrespect? Sometimes, people assume I’m just a jaded woman. They tell me “you must not like men, that’s all” or they ask me if a man hurt me in my past. Why does there have to be something wrong with me just because I insist on being respected?

I tell people I’m a feminist and they look at me with confusion. What is a feminist, anyway? Many people (male and female) hear the word and they think of a radical bra-burning, man hating, ugly, lesbian who is under the delusion that they’re lives and treatment need to be equal.

That’s both offensive and limiting. Women are diverse. Our wants are diverse yet men assume we are all the same and treat us as such. A feminist is someone who believes in the social equality of all people regardless of gender. A feminist is someone who believes in respect for another human being regardless of gender. A feminist believes that being a man does not make you more powerful or more entitled to me, a woman. But I’m finding out now that people who hold this belief are few and far between.

Sexism is another unbelievable term. Even today, men are startled by the idea that women are oppressed anywhere outside of the Middle East. Why is it so unbelievable that in 2014 there is still harassment and discrimination against women? Why is my word and experience not enough to prove that the tragedy still exists?

It saddens me to admit that most of this discrimination and harassment comes from black men, my so called “brothers”.  How am I supposed to be responsible for lifting your spirits in a world that beats down upon you while you, the black man, is constantly berating me? Not only must I bear your suffering, but I must suffer under you. That’s not to say men of other races are excluded from harassment epidemic. When white men approach me the first thing they comment on are my lips, my hair, my hips, my breast and how they “always wanted a black women” as if all women of color are interchangeable and to have one is to have us all. As if having me at all is even an option, just because you want me. As if!

I confess to feeling a little depressed and powerless in these scenarios because in reality, I am somewhat powerless. Sometimes I feel like the only beings with the power to make any real change in the way women are treated and reacted to are the main ones responsible for the oppression. Women’s issues are everyone’s issues. And yet I feel constantly alone and criticized for crying wolf and calling men out on their privilege and outrageous behavior.

To the men out there, in case you still need convincing of your innate privilege given to you simply by being male (especially if you happen to be a white upper middle class male over 5’7″), allow me to break it down:

No reporter ever asks men how they plan to balance both their family and their career. (That’s a woman’s concern, right?)
Should you decide to run for office, political commentators will have nothing to say about what you wear to the podium.
Your value and intelligence are not directly linked to your sexual expression or lack thereof.
What goes on in your reproductive system is not under government regulation.
You can expect to see a group of men on a reality TV show who are not fighting. (“Bad Boys Club” just wouldn’t sell)
You can walk down the street at night (or anytime of day, really) and not be concerned for your sexual safety. (Do they make anti-rape, boxers yet?)
You can go nearly anywhere in the world and be allowed to wear what you want, go where you want, ride a bike, vote, go to school, work, pretty much do anything you want because you have a penis.
You aren’t criticized or called some variation of whore for appearing in public in minimal clothes (go shirtless if you want to, guys. Show off those abs!)
You can feel the freedom and right and even responsibility to comment on this article and tell me that my life experience and my opinions written here are wrong.
I have no ending for this piece. Just a plea for people to treat me (and others) with the respect I deserve not because I’m cute, or because I yelled at you and demanded that you speak to me with respect. But because I’m a human being. Not an object of your affection existing for your protection and attention That’s all.

Indicators that You Are Dealing with a Black Male Sexual Harasser

name notSexual male harassers are usually poor, inner city, from single-mother homes, baby daddy, a convicted felon (likely sexual assault, battery, handgun violation, controlled dangerous substance) and as black men are primary harassers I noticed they are usually dark-skinned, with unattractive features, shiny, possess a snide or evil look, verbally abusive, severely immature, dress in urban wear, socially stunted, barely articulate, unfoundly arrogant and hate religious people. These black men will state any of the following when you have rejected their predatory behavior and not allow them to further disrespect you or be a willing victim of their sexual, criminal behavior:

1. You ain’t all that
2. F*** you, you b*****
3. She’s a b*****
4. I didn’t want you anyway
5. Paaughlease (phonetic)
6. Nobody don’t want you
7. “suck teeth”
8. Nobody wants to touch you anyway

Often these loser Negros will get loud to try to keep you engaged. Walk away and ignore the Negro species, maybe he will learn that in order to be among civilized homosapiens he must lose his inherent “apes in heat” proclivities. Haven’t you noticed they literally go ‘BONKERS’ when a woman rejects their sexual harassment? This is due to the fact that they operate from the penal gland and not the logical portion of the brain. These same Negro male species actually wonder why everyone including an increasing number of Black American women believe they are inferior, because you are. You act below civilized society’s standard, you act on bestial/animal level (lowest), you have the least amount of education attainment levels, you save the least, you are least present in your children’s lives and you demonstrate the LEAST amount of respect to women, including Sunni Muslim black women and other women of color. Today’s Black American man chooses to be the least in everything, therefore you are inferior and you project it on innocent women bystanders.

Today’s black American man needs to get some dignity and manners and leave decent women alone in Maryland and elsewhere.

Disrespectful Black Man at Office Depot-Glen Burnie, Maryland

On an early weekday morning, I decided to get some errands done which included handling some business at the Office Depot. Since I was already in the area I went to the Office Depot in Glen Burnie, Maryland off Ritchie Highway/Route 2 near the MVA.

I was waiting at the customer service station counter. I was covered as usual, I had on pants a long tunic shirt which hit my hips and my hijab. I left my ankle-length sweater in my car, but nonetheless was covered. As I was waiting for the customer service cashier to conduct my transaction for payment. A much older, dark-skinned black man who appeared to be in his late 50s early 60s entered with a white guy about the same age and appeared to be a construction worker.

I focused my gaze on the customer service cashier in front of me when I felt someone staring as I looked to my right, the black man was making it obvious that he was staring at my posterior. I turned back around visibly irritated when I heard the white man he was with begin to chuckle. When I turned back around the black male, although a couple of feet away, was holding on to the counter with one hand and bending down trying to look under my tunic. The cashier a young white lady and myself just rolled our eyes and attempted to ignore both of them. I was lucky he didn’t grab me, because that was likely his next course of action.

To today’s black “Christian” men, you are the worst human beings I have consistently encountered in my life. You treat women of color worse than the Ku Klux Klan, racist professors or white policemen. You are a plague to your community and you continue the stereotype of “buckdancing” for Mr. Charlie. You will do anything to seek the approval of white men. Black men, by your actions you have declared yourself an enemy to decent women. You destroyed the Black Christian community and now you attempt to infiltrate the Sunni Muslim community which have many practicing Sunni Muslim Black American women. May G-d bring down His wrath upon you and punish you justly for your sins and offenses. I know you do not believe in G-d because if you did you would not disrespect His Creation, yes that includes women of color, especially G-d-fearing ones.
