“8 Reasons To Date & Marry A White Man”

The ReadyWriter

I received an email from a loyal reader who wanted to share with me, eight reasons why I should marry a white man, instead of holding out for an African-American brotha.

Warning: his reasons may piss you off, but everyone is clearly entitled to their own opinion (s).

Hey Tracy,

Have you ever considered dating outside of your race? Black men are doing it and seeing in other women what they don’t see in their own.

I just wanna ask you baby, what are you waiting for? A solid committment and the ring?

Let me give you eight reasons IMO, why you should set your sights on Mr. white, in order to make it right!

  1. If he’s gay he’s going to tell you, not be on the down low and have you trying to figure that shit out.
  2. White men have a stronger family structure, they’ll take care of you, not look for you to take care of them. They come from a 2 parents household (like you and me).
  3. Your education will be respected not intimidating.
  4. White men don’t have illegitimate children all over the globe with 2, and 3 baby mammas.
  5. White men understand what defines manhood and that’s minus a thug life.
  6. They spend money they have, and are not going broke trying to impress you.
  7. White men don’t live in your past but will embrace you as their future
  8. and lastly Ms. Bell, white men are secure by a women’s strong ambitions, not threatened.

Stop waiting for a black prince charming because he’s never going to come. It’s time to taste the unknown baby.

Ok CEO family, I’m looking for you to sound off!! I wanna know what you think about hooking up outside of one’s race?

To Hoopz, Flavor Flav’s original overnight reality show celebrity.

A loyal reader emailed me the details like I needed to know and like I care.

Hoopz apparently confirmed their engagement via her twitter page.

And for the record ladies, the man is supposed to confirm the engagement not the woman!

“On Dating A Single Parent?? – Not Likely”

The ReadyWriter

I received an email yesterday from a loyal CEO blog reader (who shall remain anonymous) and they wrote this:

“Hey There Tracy”,

“I love your blog and have been a follower for quite sometime now. You don’t talk about dating much I’m sure this part of your private life, you keep separate from your public blog but I’m curious to know, if you would date a single divorcee with child?”

“I’m sure as a single woman like yourself, you can come and go wherever and whenever you want too and you answer to no one. You probably work overtime anytime, hit the happy hour or the gym after work, take weekend trips or long trips and sleep in on weekends. A singles lifestyles and that of married father are like night and day.”

“You clearly have a freedom that most wouldn’t want to give up.”

“So my question to you is, would you date a man with a child or children, I’m curious to know?”

“Some of my friends feel, that single folks should date other singles and single parents should date single parents.”

First off, I never hit-up “Happy Hours” because I don’t drink. I do however, agree with his friends.

Dating a man or hooking up with a man who has children is a turn off for me. Divorced men with children automatically come into the relationship with attached baggage and that’s one responsibility that is beyond my emotional scope of reasoning.

I’ve witnesses a lot of emotional and physical drama from broken relationships where children are involved, and would never wish to subject myself in parts of any of it. 

That’s my stance in this situation and on this subject…What are your thoughts, CEO fam? Please share them with me!

“Is It Ever OK To Call The Other Woman Mommy?”

The ReadyWriter

Not according to Swizz Beatz ex-wife Mashonda.

In the October issue of Sister2Sister magazine, Mashonda is still making it very clear that, Alicia Keys was her husband’s mistress.

“We were married. Sleeping in the same bed and having sex every night while he was seeing Alicia. Okay? It was an affair. 100 percent. I don’t know why people want to change that rule so much. We had just had a kid, for crying out loud. Our child was 8 months. I found out about Alicia two days before my son turned 1. They had been doing their thing for months before that.”

And although Swizz and Alicia have since moved on, are happily married and expecting their first child together, people continue to ask Mashonda; why is she still speaking out about them?

“My story is a universal thing. This is not just something that only happened to me: This happens to women every day. Mine was just ugly. If I can help the next woman get through and be positive, then I’m going to talk about it.”

Mashonda then added, how Alicia Keys wanted her son (Kasseem Jr.) to call her mommy and how she addressed her in an email.

“Yeah. I sent her an email and asked her to please respect what I am to him and it’s not right for her to think that is okay. She never replied. She doesn’t reply to me. She has never given me that respect.” 

“It is so unfair to the child. I have been in contact with the little girls mother (the woman in England who has Swizz’s baby). She’s a young girl. She’s a spiritual girl. She apologized to me… I don’t even judge her. I can’t. She’s totally different than the other one. This other one knew. Alicia knew about me 100 percent. Swizz introduced me at prior events. They were signed to the same record company. She knew. And I emailed her and asked her to stop doing what she was doing and she disregarded me. Just like she disregarded me when I asked her to not have my son thinking it was okay to call her “umi.” You’re not his umi. You just met my son.”

“Umi” means “mommy” in Arabic. I’m like no. And then after I spoke to the lady in London, she told me that she tried to get her daughter to call her “umi” as well.

Mashonda should have addressed her child’s father Swizz regarding this issue, not Alicia.
