Black men are the result of the preferences of black women through the generations. By an anonymous commenter at Steve Sailer’s.

I don’t buy that Angry Black Women are really angry at their men and are projecting. If anything, you are projecting: you are angry at black men’s bad behavior, and it seems like their women ought to be as well.

But I just don’t see it. Black women could always refuse to have sex before marriage (they don’t.) They could refuse to provide for unemployed adult men whether as mothers or lovers (they don’t.) They could refuse to date and be impregnated by criminals (they really don’t.)

In reality, the personality distribution of black men is a result of the preferences of black women through the generations. Black women like aggressive, low time preference men and have for a long time. They might not always like the downsides of such personalities, but the upsides outweigh them.

That’s why black women, rather than demand that their men change, demand that society change to accommodate their men (give them money and not punish them for crimes.) They’re not projecting; they’re being honest about their desires.

Groups are not the same. Genetic change due to selection happens on a time scale of generations.
