Where are the good men?
Art "Chat Daddy" Sims, Relationship Advice Columnist for the Chicago Defender is calling all men and women to a must-attend seminar on "WHERE ARE THE GOOD MEN?" at the Black Women's Expo on August 2 (Saturday).
Have we, as black people, given up on the concept of love?
Are black women still facing the fear of down low brothers?
Are black women coming to the conclusion that so many brothers are fronting when it comes to dealing with them and that they are bringing very little to the table?
Are so many sisters so anxious to get to the altar and will they be truly satisfied with the notion of never finding a mate?
Is it possible to unveil the truth of why black men are afraid of commitment?
Discovering the answers of whether or not today's black women are starting to discriminate against everyday black brothers?
