Nah…male vulnerablity is so rare in ours and many other cultures that anytime it’s exhibited it’s easily categorized, lumped together, dismissed, or patronized. Duke talking bout his struggle, there’s many things about me that I just can’t be. My father married my mother has some girls and divorced when I was about 5.
My mother cheated on him early in the relationship and convinced him my oldest sister was his and she wasn’t. He stayed wit her and she took that as weakness and kept two timing him. Eventually asking for a divorce and bouncing to another state.
He was heart broken and followed her to that other state, me,.I was in a whole other state, both them bounced on me. Nigga moved around like a love sick puppy even though she played him out. Every time you talked to that nigga he talking bout some shit from 10, 20,30 years ago about her.
I always saw that nigga as soft, a pussy, a sucka, a weakass nigga. I ingrained in my as a child..I will never be..that nigga. Whatever that nigga is..I will be the fucking opposite. Anything that remotely resembled that nigga about me I hated. I hated the way I looked for years cause I looked like that nigga.
Just cause I care about if I may inadvertently play with a woman’s heart, and I’m empathetic to that cause many people in my life played with my loyalty and I don’t duplicate what is done to me. Don’t mean Id ever let myself be the type sucka nigga my dad was..Bobby Lee that type nigga
