After watching some of these "ladies" degrade themselves just to be reality television stars, now read this below:
Melanie White Is Determined To Be Married By 50!
The 44-year-old bank teller and mother of two has already given her long-distance boyfriend of three years the ultimatum - get married or move on."I'm almost at that half-a century mark. I'm wondering if I will I ever get married," said White. "All I can do is pray about it and put it in God's hands."
For White, who still considers herself to be single, the marriage will be her first, if it does come to fruition.
White is just one of a growing number of black women who are over 30 and still single.
A recent Yale study found 42 percent of African-American women remain unmarried, compared to only 23 percent of Caucasian women.
Deborrah Cooper, a relationship and dating advice columnist for the San Francisco Examiner, recently made claims on her popular blog, SurvivingDating.com, that predominantly black protestant churches, such as African Methodist, Pentecostal, and certain denominations of Evangelical and Baptist churches account for why so many black women are still single.
As you keep reading this article, ask yourself this question. Do shows like Basketball Wives do as much damage, if not more, to African American women than the church pews?
Hmmmmm...
