Kevin Samuels is an ass, but he ain’t lied to us yet.
Kevin Samuels is getting a lot of heat for his comments, but his thoughts on male and female dynamics are insightful.
Image consultant Kevin Samuels has gotten a lot of smoke for his relationship advice ever since his You’re Average at Best video hit social media a while back. Almost overnight, men and women responded to the display with mixed feelings as women on social condemned him for telling black women they needed to change themselves. Normally, I’d put on my best Derrick Jaxn impression and condemn him too, but I can’t. Samuel’s criticism doesn’t take away from the valuable advice that he gives to both sexes. On the other side of his delivery is truth and honesty, like the kind we used to get from our teachers, coaches, and family members. Take for example some statements he gave on the No Jumper episode:
“Women, by nature, want to consolidate on the highest value man possible. Social media and dating apps have now made it where you have almost 100% of women wanting men in the top 10 and 20% to produce this outcome which is unrealistic. You want a man making at least six figures? That’s only 10% — 14% of the population.”
What’s hateful about that? Women have unrealistic expectations of men that are rooted in television…
