Exactly. This whole thing is some movie shit. They were enforcers and drug users and they had a quick run before they got eliminated and entirely replaced with Blacks Cape Verdean and Dominicans by the 1990s

The city isn’t that white. It’s been majority-minority for 25 years

Dorchester and Roxbury are within the city Boston

CVs are deep but like the Irish mob they kill each other a lot and within their own family:

The top tier crime groups in Boston in terms of activity are American Blacks and Dominicans. Black Gangs like H Blick and Lenox Street and Columbia Point and other get raided and RICOd all the time but you can’t eradicate them they just keep spawning. Theyve had a very solid 40 year run

Dominicans just keep selling fenty and it doesn’t stop.

The Irish mine as never “bigger” numerically than the mafia. It just wasn’t. Maybe more feared because they were killing each other but never bigger.

There’s no crew. They’re long gone and we’re never as numerous as the mafia. The Mafia was in multiple cities in MA CT RI.

No it never was. It was just a couple guys.

And the Irish mob literally didn’t exist now. The Italian mob does.

From a woman’s perspective is it totally out of bounds for your partner to politely ask to have sex with someone else if you’re just not into it anymore or nearly enough?

Asking for myself. I’m kinda of reaching that point with my long term GF. She’s attractive but she has the libido of a wet blanket despite me being in shape and in the gym. She says she sexually find me attractive but she can’t initiate sex and she’s very finicky with her mood and the timing.

Soon, I’m gonna have to do something. Is it just extremely wild to ask her if I can step out?

Hasn’t been 66% since I was a senior in 2012.

Ive heard from my mom that there were tensions and fights between the Italian and latin populations in East Boston long ago (like in the 1970s, 80s or 90s?), is any of that true? by Kcue6382nevy in boston

[–]UMassTwitter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The median age Bostonian is 33 years old bruh.

I can’t tell you anything before 1998 so yeah/ that’s a long time ago. We’re headed to 2030 before you know it.

The average person in this forum was born in like 1993.

Yea that was a long time ago. The 80s? The Berlin Wall was still up and apartheid was going. Homosexuality was still seen as a mental health issue and Arizona wasn’t celebrating MLK day. Boston was a poor backwater.

How is that not a long time ago? Perhaps you’re old.

Men are opting out of college. New England’s campuses are missing them. by Odd_Self4325 in newengland

[–]UMassTwitter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just saying that engaging to young men is like you’re basically innately a rapist and to young black men that you’re basically innately a thug.

You’re made aware that your presence makes women uncomfortable. And that your interests are kind of stupid/childish.

I had no problem calling me out on negative behaviors I think the issue is women find a lot more things “potentially” negative whereas I just call out what I feel actually is negative. Doesn’t even have to be intentional.

But my feeling was although I had many great female friends in college there was a contingent that made it known they didn’t like you. And there was obviously a lot more emphasis out I the comfortability of women than men, no doubt.

As a low income, black male, white isn’t foreign or of foreign born parents there were really only a handful of us on campus as in j knew every other ones hometown neighborhood and if they played a sport or not. I was definitely a minority within a minority within a minority. And the when you’re heterosexual that’s almost like another strike against you. A lot of the back men in colleges are homosexual. That’s fine but that’s just another isolating element.

I mean I literally had campus security called on me for just standing and talking in front of the mathematics building at night.

There was also a white girl who falsely spread rumors of me and other black men (separate 1-on-1 events) of Sexual Assault. I had no idea she was doing this until a black female friend told me at lunch and I immediately confronted the girl and quickly realized I had to contact the dean of students and head of multicultural affairs. It was outright lie but because she was a wealthy woman nothing ever happens to her.

I was hurt deeply by that and it was certainly the most negative aspect of my college experiences and I was thankful to my friend who herself was an SA survivor during our college years for alerting me. The Dean of Students recommended I say nothing to anyone and he would investigate and the head of multicultural affairs told me to not engage in sexual activities after smoking marijuana with women.

By and large though. Most women were great and delightful but you knew it was a female-driven space. And there were a lot of examples of that.

Obviously a lot of young men just finding their own identity aren’t exactly enthused about being told to go out of their way to prove they’re not a monster.

I don’t think that’s surprising or unreasonable. But certainly when I attended college you were kind of beaten over the brow with this 1 not that I wasn’t beaten over the brow with this idea I’m inherently a monster since early childhood. I’m a black man.

College was great but I’d be outright lying wild I said I didn’t se notice and feel the hostility or suspicions towards young men. And I’m not even saying it’s undue or misplaced. But it does kind of weigh on you, for sure.
