Turning moms and dads into husbands and wives one household at a time...
MYBDD Enemy #1: Maury
“You are NOT the father!”
He’s been doing it for a while, but if we’re gonna go there, let’s start at the bottom. He parades delusional pregnant women, mostly Black on his show to take paternity tests.
Weekday mornings baby mamas fall and roll on the floor and the baby daddies run up and down the aisles in relief and triumph. If I’ve lost the remote and the bowl of cereal is too good to disturb the crunch flow I’ll let it play, but that’s only 5-10 minutes.
There is a problem with lots of single mothers in the Black community, true. But it becomes perverse and tired when every single show is about the same issue–definitely not something that can hold an alphanista’s attention for long. Not because she’s offended, but she’s just not that into it. It’s boring, predictable, and we get the point already–It’s a bad thing when you don’t know the father of your child. I’m all for somebody getting money, because his ratings are decent. But Povich used to be a news anchor and journalist for A Current Affair, a Rupert Murdoch venture. I guess he needed a career change, and a new house.

Comment by DaShawna Martin on March 17, 2010 at 12:20pm - I am not going to lie. I find these shows entertaining and I find my self wondering how these women could sleep with so many men and not think of the consequences when they get pregnant. In most cases none of the 5-10 men are the baby's father and they just look stupid and whorish. As black women we need to do better. They need to look at themselves say, " I don't want my kids seeing me like this." Though their children will love them, some sort of disrespect will there towards them. I am not signal out just the women but that is where it starts and where it should end ultimately.
