They say that Africans have good moral values that they have been brought up with that are far from what "MOST"-not all- African American brothers have.

I would not think would be a correct generality. Africa has the worse cases of widespread Aids in the world.

Most of this is contributed to sexual relations outside of marriage and with many partners. (And that does not sound like "good moral values, to me)
I think you can find kind, moral, polite, responsible men in any country and within any race... you just have to demand it and not take less.

I think it just really depends on the person and how they have been brought up. Every single person is different and has a different upbringing so i dont think anyone can really judge someone's character from their race, age, class etc....
I'm sure that there are both good and bad African, American and African/American guys out there so u just need to get to know the person and see what kinds of morals and what kind of family they have. I think that will give you the answer u are looking for.
Its like Australians, or Chinese, or Greeks, u cant just judge them as one and the same just because of their heritage (i'm not saying that u are) its just that each one is different and has had a different family lfie and upbringing which makes each unique.
Like I said, I dont think there is a "type" i just think u really need to get to know the person/s in question and that will give u the answer. Hope this helps answer your question!

I dont know, we, as african americans, are all derivatives of those africans. Most African Americans has the same upbringing that the Africans had just modified to fit different areas and situations. Kinda situtional upbringing. It is up to the person what they do with it. To each its on.

i heard that african men are far more polite and gentle than african american men. african men are softer but they are not wimps. and, they are less obnoxious than african american men.
