Quote

"I know just how you feel--I've felt just the same way when that happened to me, and it really hurt. You should be able to say how you feel even if others don't always necessarily think it's appropriate--as long as it's truly from the heart. You should never go against what your personal moral compass says, even if that goes against the commonly accepted morality of all of your close family and friends and anyone you respect. I don't want to know what you should feel--I want to know what you do feel." The INFP's dominant Fi is an introverted judgment (Ji) function, meaning the top priority for INFPs is full, deep, robust, profound definition of precisely what values the user finds instrumental to the essence of his personal identity and that which he finds to be fundamentally "good" or "bad" at its root core. But it's more than just good or bad; on a grander scale, the INFP is concerned with the very essence of Good and Evil, Meaningful and Not Meaningful, Sacred and Not Sacred. This duality becomes central to the moral philosophy of many Fi dominant types. Fi users believe there is a definite moral order to the universe (meaning that it is inescapably true that some things and some ideas are inherently more valuable, more virtuous, and more worthy of positive evaluation than others), and that the only way we may catch a glimpse of this sacred ideal is by allowing ourselves complete and total connection and understanding with our emotional responses and the way they reflect that which upholds the internal "essence" of moral goodness as we understand it subjectively and individually. One INFP friend calls it "The uh oh feeling" when his Fi (bolstered by Si) somehow "senses" almost immediately that a new person is up to no good. For Fi, standardizing ethics collectively misses the point by blunting the individual's unique identity and influence so much that the real significance is lost. Morality for Fi is not something that anyone else can tell you how to approach: it's something you just have to look inside and feel for yourself. Morality is too complex and nuanced, reasons Fi, to be marginalized by approaching it from a collective standpoint. It's too dependent upon the essence of the individual and his personal impressions, too subject to that individual's experiences and understanding to even be approached (or worse, insisted upon) by anyone else. As soon as you try to design moral philosophy that works the same way for more than one person, you've ruined its inherently individualistic nature.

INFPs often have a distinct habit of letting resentment and negativity build up toward someone until they're so incredibly upset that they can't help exploding into a Te-rundown of precisely everything you are doing wrong and why it's simply not acceptable in moral terms they can justify (Fi.) At least two INFP friends have told me that when they focus on explaining and resolving their grievances routinely and calmly before they have time to bottle up and fester into huge issues, they find themselves much more able to maintain the deep one-on-one connections they invariably must form with others, and to reach even greater personal understanding and empathy as a result. Auxiliary: Extroverted iNtuition (Ne) As an auxiliary function, Ne grants INFPs both an awareness of and concern for how others perceive them, and the ability to explore, create, experiment, and play with new combinations and possibilities for different approaches and ways to change and recreate what they see around them, with an eye on how these exploratory outings will affect the perceptions and emotional states of others. This is a crucial factor in the INFP's ability to apply Fi's uniquely individualistic values to an externally observable context in a way that both captures the attention and admiration of others and allows him to translate his inner passions into forms that others can understand, identify with, and appreciate. The INFP needs Ne in order to spread the message of his ideals to an audience that will listen: Ne is the bridge by which Fi's vision can be forged into the creations that serve as external representations of the INFP's identity. "No need for greed or hunger / A brotherhood of man / Imagine all the people / Sharing all the world." --John Lennon, "Imagine" Ne often ends up expressing itself through artistic and creative endeavors: This penchant for interpreting and rearranging patterns of external phenomena frequently results in a particular knack for manipulation of language and its ability to say just the right thing to convey precisely the value or feeling the INFP wants to express, in a way that makes that feeling real for others. Indeed, INFPs are quite often found among novelists, musicians, graphic artists, screen writers, and all other forms of widely recognized creative expression by which the purity of their internal worlds (Fi) can be expressed externally (Ne). At their best, INFPs are principled, idealistic, playful, creative, and deeply empathetic. Without the aid of auxiliary Ne, the INFP may become frustrated at the conflict between her intense desire for self-expression and her inability to translate the ideals she strives to live by into a medium that will touch the souls of others in the same way they define the meaning and purpose of her own life. INFPs, because they show the outer world their flexible Ne side more readily, will appear much more open and accepting on the surface, and indeed they will remain that way as long as their interactions with you remain relaxed and enjoyable and do not require getting into serious ethical analysis or put them in any uncomfortable situations which might make them feel morally conflicted. They will appear flexible now (Ne), and steadfast later (Fi). They are generally open to all sorts of new experiences and connections between different experiences--they love to get at the heart of the people's true character by finding and comparing the ways in which different individuals have different unique "flavors", each offering its own special kind of meaning, and they love to observe the connections between different individuals in this regard. They may come off as rather reserved at first, but it doesn't take too long before they will at least open up Ne to you and relate to you on a surface level--this usually happens in terms of discussion about some common interest, such as art, philosophy, music, etc...anything that will seem interesting and noteworthy to the collective of people the INFP deems worthy. Inside, however, they are far more rigid and unyielding in terms of the extraordinarily high ethical standards they place on themselves and anyone they consider close enough to be a trusted friend. When you become close to an INFP, you are accepting a responsibility to uphold the high personal standards that define the INFP's entire self-image and existential philosophy. INFPs will offer only the very best ethical treatment of their friends and loved ones, and they expect no less in return--if you cannot fulfill this sacred bond to the same level they hold themselves to, you should not commit to such a close relationship in the first place. Tertiary: Introverted Sensation (Si) For INFPs, the tertiary relief function Si is consulted in order to provide them quick reference to the real feelings and experiences that have affected them profoundly in their past experiences. Fi+Si doesn't consciously say, "Ok, the last time this happened it caused a negative emotional reaction for me; therefore I will avoid it now"; Fi simply instinctively begins to experience the terrible emotional state Si has associated with whatever negative experience, and panic and dread take over, forcing the INFP to escape this situation at all costs, for fear of being forced into that state again. Fool me once, shame on you--fool me twice, shame on me. I have seen INFPs who, once they begin to develop Si, start to pay very close attention to possible contaminants which could taint the purity of their physical bodies in the environment around them. They'll become extra careful to check food to make sure it hasn't gone bad, has the right nutritional content, etc. Some of them either insist on seeing a doctor more often than necessary, or become distrustful of doctors in general and avoid the experience, if they've had some negative past experience with doctors or medication (as, unfortunately, a fair number of INFPs have.) When applied positively though, it gives them a grounding into something real, something they can hold on to that they know will always be there for them because it always has been--this can be instrumental in leading the INFP into the spiritually aware and comfortable state she desires. Development of tertiary Si helps the INFP connect her physical health and the needs of her body to the emotional and spiritual health upon which Fi is so heavily focused. As INFPs learn to pay more attention to Si, they will learn what conditions and surroundings are likely to lead them to better physical health, and recognize the enormous effect this will have on their emotional and spiritual health. As Si improves, they will appear to take a page from ISJs in their refusal to work under conditions that "don't feel right" in that they aren't conducive to promoting the calm, relaxed, and emotionally aware state under which their creative juices can flow most freely. Most importantly, however, Si serves as a voice of caution and experience to help avoid the Ne trap of getting so lost in creative exploration that the INFP forgets where his comfort zone is and repeats the same painful mistakes again and again. INFPs with strongly pronounced Si will appear less naive, more world-weary, and perhaps a little bit more cynical--but it's generally for the best, as repeated negative experiences with being too trusting too quickly will teach them. Inferior: Extroverted Thinking (Te) For INFPs, Te ideally provides an objective counterpart to Fi's value judgments by allowing them to consider the importance of accomplishing real goals through real functional external world systems. This is very difficult for many INFPs to process because forcing any sort of cooperation on others for the good of a larger system (Te) is often seen as tantamount to destroying the right to express one's personal individuality at all costs (Fi.) This moral dilemma plagues many INFPs. Te will, on occasion, pop out and result in the INFP blowing up and telling everyone in painstakingly objective detail how poorly they are living up the expected standards of their responsibilities. It kills the INFP to do this, because she wants so badly to respect others' right to personal individuality and self-expression, but ultimately she must recognize that some people will not voluntarily cooperate and must be forced to change for the good of society as a whole--nay, for the Good of Good itself! As far as I can tell the line of reasoning goes something like this: "You are not performing your moral duty to me as a friend (Fi), and every time I have been in a positive working relationship in the past (Si) it has followed certain standards (Te), and while I hate to do this, you are threatening my right to personal identity here (Fi) and thus I must explain to you objectively and very, very bluntly how your behavior cannot be tolerated (Te)." The real issue for INFPs struggling with inferior Te is the conflict between Fi's idealistic, highly personalized individualism and Te's somewhat Machiavellian ends-justify-the-means, get-it-done-at-all-costs attitude. Ultimately, once Fi, Ne, and Si are satisfied, an INFP nearing total maturity should be able to recognize the value in the idea that sometimes, unconditional promotion of individual freedom of expression is simply not practical from a resource management standpoint, and that in order for society (or any other organization) to function meaningfully as a unit, some degree of personal individuality must, at times, be sacrificed. Nonetheless, INFPs remain distrustful of any suggestion that people be "forced into boxes" or otherwise compelled to conform in any way that violates their sense of freedom of choice or private identity. As Te begins to balance this attitude, INFPs will gradually realize that actually creating the ideal utopian world they envision so naturally will require paying some attention to practical considerations, namely some form of objectively impersonal evaluation, and that this doesn't have to conflict with their ideals--it can, in fact, support and assist them in their quest to set all things right with the world. And even if they never really find perfection, at least they'll have some degree of measurable success to point to--and that may be the only way to feel content in a world which will never truly live up to the perfectly harmonious ideals that Fi lives for.

The last time Vulture spoke to Andrew Garfield, we caught him in the middle of an existential moment. Promoting his 2015 foreclosure drama 99 Homes just as the presidential election was about to get underway, Garfield quite candidly wrestled with the notion that anything he could say as an actor would really, truly matter.

A little more than a year later, so much has changed. With Donald Trump about to assume the presidency and his native England splitting off from the European Union, the ground underneath Garfield's feet has shifted and so, too, have his own self-doubts about speaking out. Over the course of a long and candid conversation with Vulture's Kyle Buchanan and KPCC's John Horn for their podcast the Awards Show Show, Garfield discussed two of his acclaimed films: Silence, where he plays a Jesuit priest whose attempt to spread the gospel of Christianty in 17th-century Japan goes horribly awry, and Hacksaw Ridge, a true story about Desmond Doss, a gun-averse conscientious objector who nevertheless saved dozens of men during World War II. Garfield also passionately weighed in on Trump ("the sickness, the toxicity ... you can just feel it"), his right-hand woman Kellyanne Conway (who Garfield compared to a Nazi propagandist), and Meryl Streep's -much-talked-about Golden Globes speech.

Listen to the discussion here: AUDIO

An edited transcript of their conversation follows underneath.

Kyle Buchanan: Andrew, your characters in Hacksaw Ridge and Silence are distinguished by their moral compass, but what I appreciate is that it's not all there is to them. They grapple with things, and I'm thinking particularly of Rodrigues in Silence. At times, he's almost seduced by the acclaim and worship of his constituents. That brings me to wonder, in sort of a long-winded way: As a film actor, how do you keep your moral compass? How do you keep your true north when there are so many other things that go into being a celebrity these days? That's a wonderful question, and I think that's one of the reasons I was drawn to Father Rodrigues. He's a man of deep faith and longing to serve … but there's something else going on, which I think is evident in the book and the script that I read and, ultimately, the film: There's a lot of ego there, a lot of ambition and personal glory that he's after. I don't think he's all that aware of it when he first sets foot in this foreign territory of Japan, and I believe that is what is really, truly tested, this strong-willed and forceful ego. He had a very clear idea of what his life was supposed to look and feel like: He was going to be martyred, he was going to be sainted, he was going to have all the glory of one of the great men of the faith … but the thing that he was actually called to Japan for was to have his ego totally pulverized so that he could actually begin truly serving God and his fellow man in the most humble and sincere way. For me, as an actor and an artist — and I think for all actors and musicians and artists — there's this fine line that we all have to walk. One of my favorite films this year was Andy Samberg's Lonely Island movie, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, and one of my favorite lines in that is after they leave the AquaSpin [showroom]. They've just been shown this endorsement where they're gonna have Conner's music coming out of every single appliance in the United States, and his DJ says, "I don't know about this." And Andy Samberg's character says, "Don't worry, man: There's no such thing as selling out anymore. If you don't sell out, people will just be wondering if someone gave you the chance to sell out." It's so true now. There's really no such thing as moral code, or even a kind of inner self that is guiding. It's all defined by cultural forces now, and I'm alarmed by it. For me, my long-winded answer to your supposedly long-winded question — and I don't know if we can call it long-winded after this answer — is that I depend on certain people to keep me where I am supposed to be going, that true-north thing. The person that I rely upon most is myself, and secondary to myself is those closest to me, whether they're high-school friends, drama-school friends. Frankly, I have a couple of Hollywood friends who are actually sincere, good people that want me to be a creative person and artist and have no interest in me as anything but. I'm incredibly grateful for those people. John Horn: Part of the preparation that you did for this role was essentially going through a crash course in seminary and really walking the walk that this character went through. It's an amazing amount of preparation to understand the character, but I'm also wondering if it helped you understand yourself and your role as an artist. I hope so. I'm not able to say that for sure, but I definitely would like to believe that. I think that's the intention with every single project, or every single moment if I'm living right. I'm gonna learn something, find something, have to face something in myself that maybe I hadn't faced or known before. That's always my intention. It's a really hard life to live, but ultimately it's the only one that I know how. Especially with [Silence], I underwent the spiritual exercises that I've spoken a lot about in the press, but I think the reason I have spoken about them so much is because they are truly transformational. They do reveal your self to you, and they reveal where you long to be as opposed to where you've been told you long to be. That's a really interesting thing, to identify that still small voice inside. The only way you're able to do that is if you get underneath the noise, distraction, and seduction that you're surrounded by in daily life. There's not many quiet places left on planet Earth, and it's a vital thing that we all [need], especially now as we move into this new year. Especially moving into this in England with Brexit, and the man who shall remain nameless taking over this country. There's a real need to look inward and identify what we're all meant to do as individuals in order to keep the world turning in the way that it's meant to turn. I guess what I'm saying is, [we should be] evolving and progressing toward a greater understanding of our need for one another and what it means to live a life of soul and a life of meaning, because our president-elect is not a soul man as far as I can see. JH: Do you think that changes the role of the artist and the obligation an artist has right now? Oh, yeah. I think the artist is always called upon to reflect the times we're in, in the most urgent way and urgent manner possible. I'm so grateful that I get to go to London this week to start rehearsing Angels in America, a classic play that is not set in present-day New York but still feels more urgent than ever. You could put on Death of a Salesman now and it would feel more urgent than ever, or All My Sons — any of those classic American plays. I feel grateful that I have a vessel in which I can put myself into. It's not enough, and it's never going to be enough, but yes, I'm incredibly excited to see what my favorite artists do within this climate we're in. KB: Andrew, I remember that when I talked to you about your film 99 Homes, we discussed how it very cogently expressed how you can get lower-class people to vote against their own best interests because of the promise of this million-dollar windfall that could always be one day away. I wonder if playing a role like that — and diving into all of those working-class themes in a very smart expression of where we are today — gave you a window into this populist fervor that has come to the fore when we look at Brexit or when we look at Trump? That's really interesting. I'm not sure if I have any more insight than anybody else, but I definitely resonate with what you're saying. I think your insights are always wonderful, Kyle, and I feel very educated when I speak to you. I love it, I really do. KB: Keep going, Andrew. Keep going. [Laughs.] No, I mean it! I have a longing to understand. I have a longing to fully, deeply listen and not to dismiss. I think there's lots of dismissing going on, there's lots of ignorance going on, on both sides of the argument. I look at someone like Van Jones and I'm super-inspired with what he's doing with the messy truth by staying within the tension of the debate, by not taking any easy way out, and by allowing emotions to be there, by allowing misunderstanding to be there until some kind of common ground is reached. That common ground only gets reached, we find out, through difficult discussion and very hot emotional exchange. Ultimately, I believe — and I think this is ancient wisdom, really — if you stay in the tension, something will break and crack open and some healing can happen and some meeting can occur. So I have no idea, but I'm desperate to understand. I'm desperate to understand how these men and women have voted so against their own interests and how easy it has been to manipulate a very disenfranchised portion of the population. You watch Kellyanne Goebbels — sorry, I mean Kellyanne Conway — on Seth Meyers, and you go, "Oh my goodness, how can you not see that it's all a ruse and a game and she's pointing to herself going, 'I'm lying to you! I'm pivoting here! I'm full off shit and enabling evil, ha ha ha!'" KB: She can't help but telegraph that. It's shocking that we are in a post-truth world and everything has become meaningless, in a way. I guess I'm heartened because that means that everything is going to become very meaningful as a response. It has to be — that's just the way it goes. That's cause and effect, I believe. JH: Do Hacksaw Ridge and Silence, together, represent a different perspective that you have that's not just driven by your age and the kinds of offers you have, but the priorities you have and the stories you want to tell? Again, I feel like if I'm living right, I'm forever changing and forever evolving and being revealed to myself. I'm lucky and fortunate enough that I have the stability and the ability to choose what projects I pour my heart and soul into. I feel a responsibility to myself, weirdly, and to all of those people around me, to only do the project that my soul is yearning to be a part of. That's really the only autonomy I have as an actor, is my choices. I'd rather not work, I'd rather wait [for something worth it]. Even though it's very tricky, it's proven to be gratifying to wait and wait until the right vehicle comes along where I'll be able to express the things that are bursting out of my heart. JH: I think every talent agent in town should tell their clients, "Don't take this part unless your soul is yearning for it." That might do away with many franchises that are in Hollywood right now. We could say good-bye to Transformers in the blink of an eye. Well, some people might be yearning in their souls to be fighting the giant robots. KB: Andrew, this isn't your first time doing the whole awards-season gauntlet. I wonder how you make it through without having a whole Holden Caulfield freakout. What are the pros and cons of attending these ceremonies? Oh, dearie me. You know, my experience feels different this time around. I'm a bit older and hopefully a bit wiser in the sense that I know how little I know. I'm able to enjoy it a little bit more, and I do feel pretty okay and comfortable being in those rooms because I'm proud of the work I'm a part of with these two movies. That's just a gift, really. On top of that, I get to offer gratitude and celebrate the people that I've worked with, and not only that, but to celebrate the other work that's going on. And not only that, but there are people that I have a true connection with in those rooms, friends that I love and I get to celebrate their work. At best, those things are gratitude rituals. A very wise man said that to me — a mythologist called Michael Meade who I look up to very much — he watched the Oscars one year and he said, "You know what? What I saw was the possibility for a gratitude ritual. What a beautiful thing that you get to go and give thanks sincerely to all those people and forces in the world that allow you to do what you love." So I'm feeling pretty good about it. There is the other side of it, and commerce is always going to be present, and you just have to dance with it and keep all that as light as possible. You have to keep the focus on the meaning, and we need meaning more than ever — that is for sure. The world is crying out for it, so I'm very happy to attempt to live my own version of that life. JH: Maybe there is a way to bring meaning to these gratitude rituals, and that is to think about what Meryl Streep did at the Golden Globes. Mmm, unbelievable. KB: What did it feel like to be in the room with that powerful speech happening? It was stunning, it was riveting. It was gorgeous. You could hear a pin drop. She said everything so succinctly and with such passion and sincerity. The show should have ended! That should have been the last thing said. KB: It was a real mic-drop moment. Beyond that, it was deeply profound. I don't know whether there is an obligation to speak in that way, and I think everyone will come to the party with their own dish; it just so happens that Meryl Streep is incredibly engaged and cares so deeply about humanity that she took the opportunity to talk about our responsibility to each other and to highlight a lack of humanity that is occurring in our country, a lack of humanity that is being given permission by the man who is about to inhabit the top seat of power in this country. She said it with such elegance and grace — and I believe it was inarguable, what she was saying. Totally inarguable. The fact that then the man she was referencing came out with these slurs and this empty, empty response, the feeling that he had to have some kind of response, is just ugliness. We all, I'm sure, have seen Obama's farewell speech, his final address, which was so full of grace and love and warmth. And then you switch on the television and you see this sick man. The contrast! The sickness, the toxicity, that is emanating out of his every pore — energetically, you can just feel it, I believe, if your eyes and ears are open. It's shocking. I'm grateful for people like Meryl Streep. She gives our profession a very, very good name because she's focused on the things that are meaningful. She's not trying to win votes, she's not trying to make money or win endorsements or be popular, she's just trying to speak the truth. JH: A person's life is the sum total of his or her experiences. When you look at Hacksaw Ridge and Silence, what would you say the life experiences are that you took away, that changed you? With Silence, there was longing. I wanted my ego to get beaten up. I wanted to get past this idea of self-glory, that limited perspective on life and what's meaningful. It was a wonderful journey to go on because it's the pulverization of the ego and the cracking open of the small self to reveal the deeper self inside and to truly inhabit the world in a more mature way. I hope that some of that rubbed off. Ironically, then you have Desmond Doss [in Hacksaw Ridge], who has no longing for glory and seems to be totally egoless, even though that's not possible. He's somehow managed to sublimate all of his own selfish instincts into a longing to serve and heal others. Because of that true humility that he lives by, he gets given the Congressional Medal of Honor. There's some divine, magical code, some beautiful design there that the one who doesn't want the glory gets it, and the one who desperately wants the glory does not. I think that's the universe in balance, maybe. KB: I wanted to wrap up by looking ahead to something hopeful. You're doing Angels in America on the British stage very soon, and the timing is exactly right for this, especially given the political regime the story is set against. I'm curious what your introduction was to that material, and what is it about the character you're going to play that has you vibrating? Mmmm, juicy. So juicy. Of course, Roy Cohn was one of Trump's mentors, right? So yes, it's a vital play for the times we're in. Tony Kushner asked me to do it, and I said yes very quickly. I saw Mike Nichols's HBO series when I was in drama school, and I was left agog. I was just floored by the writing, the performances, the themes. I was overwhelmed by it and I didn't fully get it, but I was definitely deeply affected by it. In terms of playing Prior, I don't know if I can answer that yet. All I know is that there's something mysterious that called me to it, and there's something about this man that the world needs. The last address that he makes to his audience in the second play of Angels in America is a pure expression of love and acceptance. He becomes this strange, fucked-up personification of unconditional love, and I'm very moved even just thinking about it. To attempt to go through, again, some destructive journey and internal agony in order to get to some deeper truth … I'm very, very excited to explore who Prior is and what he as for us as the prophet that he's ultimately choosing to be. He makes his own prophecy at the end of the play, I feel. JH: Andrew Garfield's movies, out now, are Silence and Hacksaw Ridge. Andrew, thank you so much for your time. Thank you, guys. Wonderful conversation, thank you.

what's your net-net-net worth?

I think I need to start all of my dates in honor of Drake’s “In my feelings” track- What’s your net worth? From there I can determine if I should continue relations not solely based on the value provided, but more importantly, if that value matches up with his market value. What I’ve come to learn about men is that they severely lack the internal reflection of what they can and are willing to contribute to a partnership. This lack of internal reflection causes them to over-estimate their market value. Over-estimating mens are likes of 50 Cent, Future, Ryan Lotche, and Bow Wow whereas the contrary are the likes of Lance Gross, Denzel Washington, and Ryan Gosling. Over-estimation of one’s market value can cause them to think they “God’s ONLY gift to the world”, more than worthy to have access to any woman they desire, also find women and their contributions to be easily disposable or taken for granted. Typically women under-estimate their market value because they don’t want to intimate or “scare a man away”. Women would rather play small, into the comfort of a man’s ego because it’s safe and non confrontational. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with women that play small or men that think they are God’s gift, but if these mannerism are done at the expense of yourself, or to degrade your significant other or at the approval of your significant other, that is not okayyy.

I attribute this observation to familial and societal conditioning of women being givers and men as being takers. Women will cook, clean, go to work, wrangle children, and lay it down in the bedroom all for the man that gets the big piece of chicken for dinner. While men lay in the position of expectancy- for the big piece of chicken, adoration from his lover, praise of for his professional accomplishments and wealth attainment, your forgiveness without resentment, for you to never leave or forsake him, and for you to make yourself cum! Women typically position themselves to give and prove that they are worthy of what I call the immaculate transaction. Now the immaculate transaction is not a wedding ring, no. Its the day a man decides to give of themselves. And when I say give, nothing of material like flowers, dinner or stuff. The act of giving is to relinquish the power of knowing why something is needed, yet drowns, sacrifices, or fulfills that need knowing it meets the expectation of someone. The gift of love is to drown to something bigger than yourself. To give without the expectancy for something in return. Giving requires one to choose, want and desire to be something better than. This act of giving should feel like an out of body experience. This doesn’t have to be something big like commitment or love, it can simply be unrequited support or consistent genuine care, hell, even an orgasm! Doing such a thing requires a man to be vulnerable, willing, and fearless. I don’t see this in the men I’ve been dating as of lately. I’ve encountered an array of men at different phases of their life, and what they all have in common is this arrogant pursuit to uncover my net worth and assets for their gain only. And It’s actually a violating experience. I’ve been on dates that could have been mistaken for job interviews. The interview question assess my skillset, student loan debt, and my contributions to his prestige. When I turn around and ask, “what do you bring to the table?”, I get a lot of uh’s, aggressive retorts, “what you means” or if I’m lucky “you got me fucked up’s”. This one guy’s investigative journalism skills was so tough, I wasn’t sure if he was inquiring the essence of me or the presence of me. I think there is nothing more beautiful than for a man to allow me to reveal myself to him, as he should do to me. It’s truly frustrating and disheartening because I don't think men are aware of vitriol they inflict when they run through you- your emotional headspace, your intellectual bedroom, your beautiful heart to then depart your home with nasty parting words- “ I ain’t like the way yo shit was set up in here anyway.”

Men take and take, and women break and break. I was that woman that gave so much and neglected myself and sanity. But I gave up this form of self destruction after the last one came through and ran a muck. Like a fool in love, I would let him back in countless times. And he shitted on my shit countless times. But that last time, I had enough. I didn't let him back in because I recognized that we weren’t building a partnered space. All of that shit in that “partnered” house was my shit- and I had enough of him shitting on MY SHIT. Its so crucial for women to claim ownership of the home they built within themselves and recognize the possessions they lended to the partnered home. Ownership allows us to defend, by any means necessary, or share because we know where it comes from and has the ability for rebirth. Women are constantly dying to themselves, to be rebirth again. Thats the essence of a woman; fiercely protective yet willing and able to give light/life. That man who acted a fool in MY house was simultaneously building his own house, however, it wasn’t ready for my presence, hence why I never got an invitation nor could he contribute to our “partnered” space. He wasn’t ready to give of himself; He wasn’t ready to share his space, bedroom, heart with me at full access. His ego guarded his front door until I stopped knocking (I was actually banging on that door). Not until I walked away, accepted that the immaculate transaction was not to come, He began to give, but by that time it was too late for me.

An article titled “Black Men aren’t providers because allow them to be contributors” was circling my newsfeed this past week and caused me to reflect on my contribution to the enabling of men’s subpar, unequivocally matched engagement with me. The article caused me to reflect on a recent discussion I had with a guy, who decided to stop dating me this past January.... We agreed to meet for dinner and discuss a business challenge I’m encountering and could use his help on. As we are walking to the restaurant, small talk quickly leads to a “proposal” he’d like to give me over dinner. Over dinner, he proposes that we have a child, “send it off to the soccer academy in London, and recoup our invest by the age 16 when he joins the league. Tax shelter you know” The tone and facial expression this man had during the proposal was serious and calculated in every way. Because I’m ignorant, I laughed in his face and said “you have got to be kidding me, yo, you cant be serious.” And he wasn’t playing- he proceeded to sell the idea to me “I can take care of us, you are young enough to get your body back, we’d have a tax credit for the kid, you have good hair, your family would like me...” Not once did this man ever inquire my aspirations of a family, partnership, willingness, fears, and vulnerabilities- even when we did date. All he knew and care to know was my “financial portfolio” because he already performed a risk analysis on it. Results came back that I was a low risk case because I got goals and shit to lose, just like him. Therefore the balanced risk would be shared. Once I got the shocking giggles out of me, I told him, “We would and could never work because we don’t share the same views and goals for our life projections.”

Don’t get me wrong, he’s a sweetheart. His gentle, light hearted demeanor reminds me of Sterling K Brown’s character on This is Us Television Show. On paper, he checks out- Master’s Degree, good work ethic, generous, and socially aware. But emotionally bankrupt, spiritually deprived, and hopelessly securing any love with the least effort. These traits are the archetype of takers. All they bring to the table is the “ability to provide.” “Provide” in his case, is money, but some of these other dudes say that word and mean bullshit, drama, confusion. Check it, there is nothing wrong with bringing home the bacon fellas, and ladies if that works for you, please do you boo! But for me, that’s not all I require and deserve. As a high earning, academically excelling Black woman in America, I recognize that I am apart of a demographic that is now surpassing the economic and educational threshold black men have yet to surpass. I don't say this braggadociously- I say it with great pride as I know that I am a descent of slave women, that transitioned into housemaids, then eventually entered industry’s that never wanted us like Science, Technology, Mathematics and Engineering, all while taking care of some muhfuggin kids! It is my duty to widen the door of opportunity for my Black brothers that have been stripped and undergirded of their contribution to society because of the manifestation of slavery, voters rights, mass incarceration, and systems of oppression. I get it, the shits hard and fucked up. Instead of having a chip on your shoulder because you “pulled yourself up by the bootstraps”, “aren’t a statistic”, “ have a master’s Degree and earring six figures”, “ not ready to give it all up for the wrong chick”, try sharing, giving, and being more than what you and world expects of you. It doesn’t hurt to give life/love, die by your own sword, knowing that you will be reborn again to see another day, give another day. Simply saying you want to be a financial provider in a family household may not cut it with a millennial Black women. Leaving the laborious emotional development for the mother to accomplish with y'all offspring aint enough no more. Picking up the kids when Mom can’t, aint cool no more. Your preference to go dutch on a date isn’t going to save you from rejection. You earning more than me doesn’t substitute for your lack of emotional responsibility in the building of a relationship or family. Me earning more than you doesn't subject you to domestic duties either.

I’ve come to understand that equality in genders and their roles may never be, but the dynamic equitable balance is something I’m willing to negotiate. Therefore ladies, know your true market value and demand an equitable contract with these mens. Don’t get caught up with the car sales pitch; ask the hard questions, seek the absolute truth. Hopefully this will force men to reconcile their shitty marketing scheme, humble thy self, and commits to a transaction that is cashless yet doesn’t bounce.

Be safe out here
