Thug vs. Prince Charming: Who is Mr. Right?


DISCLAIMER: Let me be the first to say that there is nothing wrong with liking a thug or being married to one...to each his own.

Everyone knows what a thug is, the one I chose to display is Gucci Mane. He definitely fits the bill. He is what most of us picture when they think of a thug. Bodies covered with an unnecessary amount of tattoos, bandanas, jeans that hang dangerously low, the need to have the freshest sneakers/clothes/jewlery but can't pay their rent/child support/car note/etc. Tough act, expressionless face, follows a set of guidelines that no one knows but other thugs. And if they are not already in the music industry...they are thinking of some hair-brained scheme to get in it...UGH!! As you can probably tell by now, I personally don't like thugs. Plain and simple. Thugs are to most women what hoochies are to most men. They look good, might be fun to sleep with...but I could never see myself wifing one. How many thugs do you know with a legitimate job? How about good credit? No kids? A 5-year plan? Exactly. So...you may be wondering, what do I like in my prince charming?

Well I would defnitely choose a suit and fresh cut, shaven/groomed facial hair over the dreads/corn rows/and fros in the sean john sweat suit. A man that cares how he looks, smells, and is perceived by others. All those tattoos can not make you look hirable to a future employer. So a man with a few tatts that can be covered with a dress shirt or polo is favorable. But, thats just the exterior. On the interior I want manners, says "yes ma'am" to his mama, opens doors, pulls out chairs...covers his mouth when he burps. Definitely NEVER farts around me, take that shit to the bathroom!!...gross and will demote you to someone who will never be wifed, please believe. Also, the ideal man takes a woman out and offers to pay. Even if its only one time, letting a woman know she is worth something as precious as your hard-earned money will make her see how self-less you are. No one likes a selfish man...and if you don't have money to take a woman out...cook for her...something! A man that only puts his hands on you to make you feel good or rubs your feet, and back and doesn't ask for anything in return. A man who makes sure a women is enjoying sex and receives pleasure. A man who gets his and rolls over or doesn't care to last until the woman gets hers like its some sort of race is definitely not worth the time...man, ladies don't we hate that!!! Not to mention the most important characteristic of a potential man...we can introduce you to our parents and they will like you, because if my dad and mom don't like you...you're out the door!

If you fit the category of thug and are proud...do you by all means, some women will settle for that...just don't bring that shit around me, because I refuse to. If I do talk to a thug its nothing but temporary, he's Mr. Right Now and I am still gonna be looking for my potential Mr. Right. You know what they say, there are those you practice with and those you practice for. :)
