Tyler Perry & Steve Harvey are great friends. Collectively, they tell women what they want to hear and they gobble it up by showing support for Tyler Perry plays & films, Steve Harvey films, etc. The moral of the story is: Get women behind you, and the money train will grow. Because women support Steve Harvey and Tyler Perry, those two are among the most successful & wealthy black men. I'm proud of those brothers because they've come a long way, and they deserve their success. Let's be honest; if TP & Steve Harvey started telling it like it is, their fan base would cease to exist. Many men aren't too fond of Steve Harvey & Tyler Perry as is, so with women making up their fan base, I guess Steve & Tyler Perry have to continue catering to women. The sad part is, many of them don't realize they're being sold a dream.
Tell a woman what she wants to hear, and you win every time. Sounds good doesn't it? At the same time, some women will say she needs a real man, a strong man. For all this wisdom they impart (I will admit, they do have useful information), you'd think adjustments would've been made in gender relations dynamics, and yet there's more of the same relationship outcomes. What works against women is their unwillingness to listen, learn and adjust. Men know this and use their bullheaded nature against them to our advantage. There are some well-versed women that don't subscribe to Steve Harvey's 'Think Like A Man" mantra, but that's because their fathers and other men in their lives have already schooled them. From this blog, I've learned one thing: Tell a woman what she wants to hear, a man is revered. If you keep it real, she could hate you.
