'...And Now You Know' - Black Man in an Elevator lol

I get so sick of that shit. When I go to work, I'm dressed as professionally as the rest of the people and I'll be damned if some chick doesn't grab her purse tighter. Fuck you bitch.

lol, this young lady in one of my old classes said her father did that to someone in an elevator. As she was getting off he made this loud sound. It's sad, but kinda funny.

To be fair white people are uncomfortable in elevators even when everyone else is white, too.

We look at our toes, at the numbers, anything to avoid eye contact!

I'm kinda puny so no one will ever be afraid of me.

I pull my bag closer no matter who you are in crowded elevators and the subway. New York women are notorious for having huge shoulder bags, so I usually pull mine to the front so it doesn't hit people and shit. For me it has everything to do with courtesy and nothing to do with race.

That's hilarious!!

But Joni, I am the only other person on the elevator.

This is why its fun for me to get on an elevator with any white lady and clutch my purse for dear life and stare at her.

I usually get a good laugh from her if she's cool... if not she rolls her eyes at me.

As a 6'0, muscular built black man, I have seen it constantly since I was about 16. It took a long time but now I view it as their problem.

Pics please.

Many women do this no matter what race the man is. To assume that it's only being done to you is pretty stupid, imo.

When any man gets into an elevator with a women, many women feel a sense of nervousness...that's just the way it is. In any situation where women are isolated with an unknown man, women are on edge. As we all know women are often targets and we get nervous...if that offends you...well, too bad so sad.

It's stupid for a woman to feel this way about being alone with another woman though. That I don't get.

I'm sig-less. Happy, fuckers?

Here some other ones. Does anyone know anything about these actors? I think the guy is cute as hell, too lil for me, but cute nonetheless.

IMO the only people that are bothered by this are people who have been victims of racism. I tease for my own sick enjoyment, but some men that are black never even pay attention to that and actually feel sorry for women who live in such fear.

I agree with the fear being needless when its just another woman... dang if a woman is scared of other women too, then her ass needs to not carry a purse at all or just stay indoors.

I can understand that people who get upset might have dealt with racism first hand, but really, this kind of situation does not automatically mean that the woman who shows a bit of nervousness is a racist.

And it's not about living in fear, it's about being aware that you can be a victim at any time by anyone...and unfortunately we live in a world where more often than not women are the victim. Knowing that you can be a victim can be nerve racking when you're in a situation when you're in a confined space alone with a man you don't know.

My point is that race may be a factor for some people but I think that many women would react the same way no matter what the dude's race was. A white man, a middle eastern man, any man can easily say that they get the same treatment in the same kind of situation.
