By now, surely you have heard of convicted felon and global heart throb Stockon, CA’s own Mr. Jeremy Meeks – who’s literal mugshot has created a Tinglestorm of seismic proportions. I sensed a disturbance in the Force when I first got wind of the situation early Friday afternoon in my social media feeds and figured that the story had legs – giving those of us who study the ways of the Red Pill example 10,587,993 that EvoPsych, and by extension GAME, is Real.

Before we get to my commentary posted on the topic over at my usual hangout Very Smart Brothas, let’s establish some facts, courtesy of our friend, Mr. Tommy Sotomayor:

-Mr. Meeks, 30 years old, has previously served a 9-year prison sentence for grand theft auto

-Mr. Meeks is married and has at least one child (which we’ve learned recently here in the forum, is actually a Booty Force Multplier of its own)

-And Mr. Meeks’ mother has put up a crowdsourcing effort to raise the funds needed to bail him out of jail – to the tune of $100K USD – an amount that Black Women across the country are quite eager to help Mama Meeks meet

-The local police department that made the Meeks arrest, has reported that they have never gotten as many Facebook “likes” in the history of their online program; as of this writing, Sat, Jun 21, 2014, Meeks has garnered in excess of 60K “likes” and more than 10K comments – virtually all of them by Black Women squealing like teeny bopper White girls for Vine celebs.

These facts put things into a proper context, but wait – there’s more!

Mr. Sotomayor, as you may well have guessed, has weighed in with yet another powerful commentary, on the two following videos – check em out here and here, along with a rare and lengthy written commentary on his website. It greatly informs what is written here by yours truly.

A final word before we get to my VSB commentary on the matter:

There will no doubt be Black Women reading this in this here forum, who will plead that no cultured, educated and intelligent Black Woman would be seen dead with the likes of rabble like Mr. Meeks – and they will plead to the High Heavens that no Sista that she knows, would never, ever, do such a thing.

To the others reading along, I have but one question, in light of the gazillionith example of realtime validation of the Red Pill:

Who are you gonna believe - the Pleading Sistahood, or your lying eyes?

Here’s my commentary regarding Mr. Meeks, last Friday at Very Smart Brothas:

“Good morning Mr. Champ, and Happy Friday,

A most timely topic, given that last week we discussed the hows and whys Ms. Rihanna is considered among the most fairest of them all.

So today, it’s the fellas’ turn.

Like you, I too was made aware of the gentleman who is the topic of discussion by way of my social media feeds; the ladies were quite vociferous in their approval of him. And for good reason:

Because, by all accounts, he exhibits qualities of high genetic quality. And therefore, represents good mating material.

While a paltry few ladies have suggested that his criminal activities and ink adornment are detractions from his overall attractiveness, the evidence as we have it says otherwise. It is a well-known fact that criminals and thugs have a much higher appeal amongst the ladyfolk than square peg Poindexters – and of course, anything that is true for White folk, goes double, if not triple, for Black America. There, the Thug, Reigns Supreme.

Every Brotha reading this, regardless to his own sociopolitical orientation, personal beliefs and philosophy, etc, knows this; unlike Women, who, due to their inherent higher value on the mating market in relation to most Men at any given time, can afford to delude themselves with #ChickLogic, Men learn the realites of the mating dance Three the Hard Way – and are quickly disabused of any Blue Pill thinking they were inculcated with by their parent(s), society and Hollywood Black Rom-Coms. Whether any particular Brotha chooses to Thug-It Up is irrelevant; the fact remains that on balance, Brothas who are Thugs can and will do better with the ladies, than Brothas who do not.

End of.

And if said Thug Brothas also happen to be easy on the eyes, as this Brotha currently under diiscussion clearly is, well, it all amounts to a massively powerful Mating Force Multiplier that, well, speaks for itself.

This is how and why, so many Brothas attempt to thug it up, folks. No, there is nothing wrong with your tv set. They are responding to clear and present signals that Black Women, a plurality of them mind you, have indicated they most desire in Black Men – aside from the physical requirements, which may or may not be achieveable, Black WOmen have also indicated that they find extreme amounts of Confidence (read: “Swag” in Ebonics), which is itself a proxy for Resources and Social Status, along with extreme amounts of Social Dominance (Women get massively turned on by Men who are able to bend other Men to his will – please see the fight scene in the film “The Bourne Identity“, or listen to Jill Scott’s “So In Love” for more on this point), to be near passing-out intoxicatingly attracative in Black Men.

Now, to be sure, there ARE subtle permutations of difference among Black Women themselves along these lines; not all Sistas will go in for say, a Shawty Lo type. However, they WILL go in for say, the fictional Stringer Bell - a notorious drugs lord in the hit HBO crime drama “The Wire”, who was also notorious for being exceptionally intelligent.

There is the view among some Brothas, that Sistas don’t find “smart” Brothas attractive; this is not the case. Indeed, Sistas DO find smart Brothas immensely attractive, IF they have what I refer to as the Power of And. What is the Power of And?

It works like this for this audience:

A Brotha has to be smart

AND

Handsome

AND

And able to parlay said intelligence into tangible success/status/resources

AND

Has the ability, and willingness, to use violence when necessary (but NEVER against the Sista in question, you see – ONLY against other knuckleheads)

See how that works? The Female Mating Mind is wired in such a way that it needs multiple “keys” to unlock her thighs *and they have to be turned all at the same time*; this is by Nature’s design – a way to prevent said female from making a mating mistake. The Power of And ensures that a Sista is making the best possible mating decision at the time, by imposing all of the above “Ands” – this is how and why so many Sistas have those notorious “lists” that we’re all familiar with. To paraphrase Mr. Scarface, her mind’s playing tricks on her.

So this is why Stringer Bell enjoys near universal appeal among the Sistahood – he’s a very handsome Brotha in a very dangerous business, who’s intelligence has not only made it possible for him to evade capture or death at the hands of the police and potential rivals, but it has given him the ability to leverage said drugs dealing into legitimate business holdings.

Additionally, he not only gains the respect of other Men, but is able, both indirectly through his social network and directly in the form of his being able to send his henchman to handle offenders, to mete out violence when called for. Note that he is the anthesis of many other Black male characters of the Wire – a Brotha who is very measured, thoughtful and deliberate, and conveys this in his actions and words. Only toward the end of his life, does his frame begin to show fractures in the facade.

In that this is a venue that caters to a more White Collar crowd, I’ll share the following in closing:

Something I discovered over the years, was that quite a few Sistas could be heard murmuring that the Cubicle Brothas, while “nice”, sometimes charming and without a doubt able to fend for himself and others financially, had lost that certain “something”; as a lifelong Blue Collar Brotha, I immediately knew what it was. Feminism, along with other major interventions, has had a very profound impact on the kinds of Brothas that makeup the core of the Afrosphere’s male demographic; in a word, they’re soft. Brothas like the one featured in Champ’s post, or Stringer Bell for that matter, still retain those essential elements of Maleness that Sistas go Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs over. Brothas here and elsewhere throughout the Afrosphere, would do well to consider this and make the needed adjustments in order to compensate.

I recommend taking up a martial art – Boxing is a good place to start. Get roughed up a bit, chicks dig a scar or two. Learn how to Break a Man Up in hand to hand combat. Also: do some actual realworld work that Men are known to do: build/teardown a house. Build a car from the ground up. You get the idea. Much of work today is stuff that Women could do as well. Not good for you. There’s also an added benefit of doing manual labor -you make money on the side and you lose weight/get in shape. One reason why I haven’t had much need for gyms and the like over the course of my life was due to my being a very active Man as a result of the nature of my work. Even now in my retirement, I am more fit than most Men my age, and have been told as much by a number of ladies (we all know that Black Women are no ways shy when it comes to what they do/don’t like in Men, LOL).
