Keeping it real..




I heard allot from the past Post about, "Swagger" and I think I even seen "Thug Appeal" thrown in there. I'm trying to figure out are not those 2 thing Artificial? Plus why would a Woman want a Man with "Thug Appeal?"
Plus allot of them Acting "Thug" Really be like this.

Ok where do I start with this topic? Swagger, thug appeal. Would you say that our President Elect is like the images you have displayed? No, but many say that he have a swag. Thug appeal, a woman wants to know that her man can protect her; she wants to feel safe. Neither swagger or thug appeal protains to a certain look rather an attitude. I don't want my man to ask me for sex. I want him to show me. A man with swag or thug appeal can keep me in my place without stepping out of his. I know sometimes I can be too much for an average man to handle.

"CHOCOLATE THUNDER!!" Now you know dang well you don't want no man putting you "In your place" WHERE exactly is "YOUR PLACE?" Also are you saying the only way to feel protected is by a Thug?? What happens when the "Thug" goes to Prison for doing "Thug" things?

See you have it all backwards. All thugs are not criminals or have ghetto mentalities. Well you don't but I know most of your women followers know how her man give her that look which send shivers down her spine. That I am in charge of this here,(this is my 0000000) look. Man. We all have a place and the man is the head of the house hold. The problem is most men don't know how to be the head without becoming abusive. I don't want a man who can't defend his postion. AK there are many thugs with swagger who are very successful. We are not looking for the dictionary definition. I see you have book smarts but do you have street smarts? It takes both to succeed in this world today. Get your head out of the books and start learning the streets. Then maybe you can handle the Sistas, hahahaha,

OOOOOH!!!!! My MY MY!! Chocolate you a Mess!!! What is your Definition of a "thug?" What Thug you know other than George Bush that's really doing anything out here for real not in Music entertainment either. I thought the word "Thug" was made up for those that broke that Law and didn't care? I take it you believe that "Nigga" is Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished? or it's okay to be called a Nigga instead of Nigger too hu?

Well you know I am just "keeping it real" hahaha. Why eliminate the thugs in the music industry? Are they not successful business men? Many atheletes are thugs who are successful and comedians and as you mentioned presidents. You use what you have to get what you want. Everyone is not blessed with book smarts or even opportunities to sit at the head of the board. I think more highly of those who came from nothing and faught hard to make something. It is easy to look at a person's clothes or stance and characterize him or her. People are quick to judge our styles (black people style). We have to look like the white man in order to fit in or be accepted.

No I do not have a problem with the word Nigga. Yes I use it quite a bit when speaking to my close friends and family. When I am out amoung the whites no I try not to use it.

Did you not say that you went from thug life on the streets to Cyber "THUG"? Clearly then you know that a "THUG" can be and do a many of thing. They are NOT always the drug dealers on the corner or career criminals. People can take any word out of context.

LOL 2020.... Would do know good to pat me down I got my goons wit me lmao!!!!!!!!! Love ya blogs Bro all of them keep up the good work would start my own but you covering all my topics already!!!!!!

FullyFocused2020 said...

First you can't be Blessed with Book smarts it's something that's Earned and Learned. Not Blessed with... Now look up the word Thug and then come back it's nothing positive I tell you that much. Also "people are quick to judge our style??" Black people style? what????? Explain that mess there? I mean OUR Style? I like Suits and Ties actually is that OUR Style? Or Saggin Pants and Tims OUR Style? I think you meant they are quick to judge Ignorant Black People Style. And as for the Word Nigga Not used Amoungst the Whites?? hahaha man that was funny But Why not?

Well in the conext of the blog it's the general term Thug which i once was... I get the term Cyber thug from those who know the old me and now consider me a sell out simply because I choose to better myself and my social and economic status no doubt... Crime is crime blue collar or white collar yet yes black people are frowned upon more for what we choose as a hustle or career crime I agree 100%
I agree one can use the hustle to rise out of old way and habbits but no to continue jumping back and forth no that is not possible without dire results... would you agree?

great point 2020... Intelligence of any kind is earned not givin use it or loose it....

Learning does not come easy for everyone. Some people study and study but still come up short while others rarely study at all and it comes naturally. So therefore one is Blessed with book smarts. Do you wear suits all the time? Why is sagging pants the style of ignorant blacks? Who are you to judge another man's style? Most black men knows how to mix it up. So you do not have any intelligent friends who sag? We were not talking about the text book definition of a thug. Yes, it would probably have the same limited definition you have on the word. I was referring to my definition of a thug. You are so open minded about certain issues while others you are clearly closed minded on.

So you NEVER use the word Nigga? Keep it real!

I have NO "INTELLIGENT" friends that Sag.. That is a NO NO I don't have ANY "FRIENDS" that sag they are considered Associates. Who that has some type of real INtelligance wears their Pants to advertise "gluteus maximus" you should've read the blog about Saggin and it's origin.

FullyFocused2020 said...

hahaha wait!! I just caught something did you say that people can Study and Study and still come up short? Via Short Bus??? you mean? Learning Might not come easy but it comes so NO more Excuses.

After all "SAGGIN" AND "NIGGAS" go hand in hand read forward and backwards what a quinky dink huh lol......

Anonymous said...

I am done with this conversation too. You are not funny. I bet many people with learning difficulties would not find your short bus joke funny either. No excuses were given. We are all Blessed with different skills and abilites. Yes some of us do not put them to good use and some of use just do not possess them. I see your true colors showing. Look who is judging now! Everyone who sags is not ignorant and everyone who wears a suit is not intelligent. If you are good, you can do both. Hahahaha. Ask a REAL man. I am OUT this Nasty thing.

Point proven! Hahaha, you can't judge a book by its cover. Thank you. I do not think one has to look a certain way in order to be intelligent.

P.S. the pic was allight, hahahaha

Remember were talkin about the Thug mentality. Saggin is the other Blog lets not mix the two ok. Wearing my pants low exposing my boxers has never been nor ever will be my style of dress. seeing we are on a blog we can only assume you are what you type no? Nothing more... I posted the pic of me only because it was needed in response to you telling me I need street smarts lol... Only for you hunny... rightly so now that you've seen my pic i'm nolonger a book worm sellout but a hard core thug???? lol my oh my... just who am I? ;)

Anonymous said...

Once again Sweetie, I said it is not what you look like that defines who you are. I said that you was a book worm because of what you said not how you looked. You posted the picture to prove me wrong when actually you helped prove my point. You want to display this image of a corporate man in your writting but you pic displays a hard core thug. Get it right, you will never catch me slipping.

Hit the wrong button. That last message was from Chocolate Thunder.

Your mental interpretation of what I may or may not look like is devised and manifested in your very own mine it has nothing to do with me nor the price of tea in china no? If you read my words and assumed I was a corporate white collar sellout brotha then switch to a wanna be sellout brotha that's your God given right it does not insult me in the least I am who I am as are you. My words are mine and they mimic my actions in life, this I assure you... The thing is until you understand and except no one cares "why" we do what we do in life more so "what" we do in life. You will stay in the same idealistic and unrealistic frame of mine you currently live in. Which is in noway a bad, wrong or right way of life unless you yourself define it so.. Your passion to fight for what you believe in shows in your words hat you can be whom ever you so choose convict and or corporate no?.... I'm sure if you visit my page you will find something that will peak your intrest... pease do...
