PSA: How Much Are You Worth

You have no idea how timely my Steve Harvey post was yesterday. A man wrote a post saying that even if Steve writes a book, he will never stop the game. That playas will stay up all night to figure out how to play women to get what they want. I hate that I overslept and missed some of this conversation. I went to the email bag (you can too by clicking the title link) and read some of the audience response. This one brother, Rodney Wilson from Charlotte, NC, posted this WONDERFUL Public Service Announcement:

How much are you worth?

Does he take you out, but goes home to someone else's house?

Are you only worth a movie?

How much are you worth?

Does he spend most of his time with his friends, unless he spends the night with you?

Are you only worth a lay?

How much are you worth?

Does he conveniently call you when child support trials are near.

Are you only worth the time when he wants to reduce child support charges?

How much are you worth?

Does he take you to fine restaurants, but hits you when you get home?

Are you only worth a nice dinner?

How much are you worth?

Does he take care of all the bills, but sleeps around?

Are you only worth a car note?

How much are you worth?

Women!

Stop accepting only what you can get, and start demanding what you are worth!

Now most feminists will agree that this is actually characteristic of "traditional" women. Women who are weak and depend on a man to totally take care of them. And to a degree, they are right. But the last line really speaks to some so-called feminists. A lot of independent, ambitious and intelligent women accept what they can get. They go for a pretty face, fat bank account and house on the hill....yet get treated worse than a slave. They think that their intelligence and assertiveness can change men like the ones described above. They take on these men like projects at work. But one day some of them wake up and don't even realize that have become the women they claim to despise.

Some of the most sought-after women are seemingly quiet, meek, weak even. But under that subdued exterior is a woman of confidence and determination. She knows her worth and what she deserves, and refuses to settle. She will politely pass by a dozen men who "look good on paper." Her girlfriends think she is crazy because she is passing all of these good men up.

A bee can pass by a dozen types of flowers, then find "the One" that they want to pollinate. The same thing with a woman who knows her worth.
