What makes the ideal woman? Actually, who is she and is she anywhere near Prairie View A&M University? Now of course the skeptics will say the good women are in church or maybe even in some small town somewhere, but is there any indication at all that one of those women might have wandered into Prairie View’s city limits? We flip the script from the last article “A good man at PV… yeah right!” to find out.
Valentines Day is quickly approaching and Jeremy Motte, a senior, says he has the perfect gift for his perfect girl. “I met her here at PV and ever since then I couldn’t be happier,” he says. “A lot of people will say Facebook or Myspace will ruin a relationship, especially if you go here, but I find it enjoyable having a good thing in college.” Motte thinks most people are unsure of what they want, so when it comes down to weeding out relationships, many people have problems.
So, is there only one young lady who has her priorities straight and, according to Mr. Motte, knows what she wants? After hearing his testimony, sophomore Sharlisia Wright says, “Most of my girlfriends wonder if there are as many good men out here as women. Women always have been more serious about relationships, so guys get left behind.”
It’s obvious that the verdict will never rest. Jonas Cooper, a sophomore, says, “If there was a vote that determined who is taking care of business better, males or females, the guys would win. Females are stuck in the past worrying that all men are the same and haven’t even noticed that we’ve stepped our game up.” Many students enjoy the meet and greet portions of college days. So, it’s easy to sit back and pass judgment on relationships, especially if you aren’t in one. PV women would rather be single than in a relationship, and the reasons range from “I have better things to do” to “it’s just a waste of my time.”
Honestly, let’s bury the hatchet. Guys have been in a constant struggle for years now to clear the slate of the “dead-beat-baby-daddy curse”. Ladies are now being hit with the heat of being labeled “scared” (please don’t ask why. please). To top it all off, relationships are either being hated on, or speculated. So, what’s the remedy? Let’s just have a good V-Day, it’ll be hard enough getting through that one.
