According to Oprah show, over 50% of women are single and 70% are "black women," is this hard to believe?

Question

In the US. she asked that question on the show. Yes married people are a minority in the country and some women prefer not to marry.

Answer 1

No, as hard as it is for Americans to confess, racism still exists in the world. Expecially to white men. Black men may go for white or black women, while more white men will go for white women.

Answer 2

Here it is. There a lot of black women out whose ideal of a "good man" is someone with financially secure. So they hold out until they find that. Forget about the guy who is trying to become financially secure, they want someone who is already there. A "good man" come in many forms not just financially. I've always had a sense that a lot of black women where kinda materialistic which makes the "good" black women harder to find. It's a two way street. Think most of the women who are single in general are holding out for a prince charming and passing on Joe the honest mechanic who is a good man

Answer 3

Hmm...

I would like to know where they got their number

Was it for the USA?
For a specific State?
For a specific age?

Does single mean not married or no BF?

Dont take the numbers too seriously?

And BTW, if 50% of woman are single, it means that 50% of the men are single too!

Answer 4

50% of all American women want to stay single the rest of there lives!! I don't know the answer to the second half of your question though I don't personally know any black women 8-(

Answer 5

This invoice will unharness the entrepreneurial spirit - the "a thank you to stay to tell the story" e book marketplace will flourish. there'll be training a thank you to apply Gucci bags to collect rain water, which Versace fabric are extra valuable for insulation, and the thank you to show a Hummer right into a house for 4. they are going to fee approximately $one hundred,000 each and every, yet so will a gallon of milk or gas. additionally, there'll be concepts in the Soup Kitchen and Bread Line industries.

Answer 6

Yes, unless she meant 50% of women are single, and of those single women, 70% are black. Whatever she meant, she's still full of crap for other reasons.

Answer 7

No, it isn't hard to believe. But not here in Texas. I've always wanted to be with a black woman. Too late now, I married a white woman. All I can do now is fantasize.

Answer 8

If you have ever lived with a man, you know why. They are pigs to live with. Too bad they are still good for one thing. (or at least I haven't found just the right replacement yet) When we learn to do that for ourselves--men will be completely useless.

Answer 9

50% single age ranging from 35-60yrs old. 70% are BLACK WIDOWS, NOT AFRICANS AMERICANS. ah!!!!! THAT'S WHAT SHE MEANT. HAHAHA!!!!
