Why would you find a message geared towards black women empowering? I didn’t realize that it was the authors “job” to frame marriage to you so that it would be appealing, as a person who is NOT a black woman, who will never experience what the author mentions in the article. Stop trying to romanticize unequal distribution of labor. No society supports TRUE equality- only myths that will blind are supported by society.

Perhaps marriage, in the eyes of MANY [black] women, is unappealing. Maybe it doesn’t need a reframing. Maybe marriage, for some, is nothing more than modern day slavery. Especially to American men. https://www.businessinsider.com/why-american-men-are-getting-less-marriageable-2018-1

If you want to be an ally, be one. Or you can be a white man on a rant because the colored women and their philosophies aren’t here to serve you and your maleness and whiteness, explicitly.
