According to the people there, what would be some stereotypes, good and bad about the men and women at your HBCU? I just want to compare and see how much different our schools really are. They can be 99% true stereotypes, or those that are perceived but not really that true. But just let us know what you always hear people around your campus and at other campuses say.
For FAMU.....
Men:
-Take at least five years to graduate (hmm....can't say it's that far off)
-Think they are "players" according to many women (some of em do of course)
-Are thugs, think they are thugs, or have a lot of **** tendencies to be in college (can be very true, especially with freshmen)
-The Greek men are seen as being the "best on campus" or elite (according to many females)
-Greeks, and sometimes dance troupes and modeling troupes get more play than the athletes (usually true)
-Most dudes with extremely nice (or hooked up) cars are either "dope boys" or spoiled kids (hmm....pretty accurate)
-Most dudes around campus and at clubs are VERY "thirsty" or aggressive in their approach with women (very accurate)
Women:
-Freshmen girls are usually flips/freaks/loose/easy (hmm....somewhat accurate, at least to an extent)
-The best ones to "wife up" usually are the ones you never see at the club or doin too much on campus (can be true in some cases but not always)
-Are a lot more into social status than economic...meaning they'd rather date a Greek dude than one who has a lotta money (very true)
Both:
-Always complain about financial aid bein late, even when it's not the school's fault (very true)
-Always talkin down on FAMU and don't have too much pride......unless you go to FSU or another HBCU, then it's a whole different story (VEEEEEEEEEERY true)

Just like I notice many guys act like they get along but what I witness on a daily basis proves that not to be the case. Want an example? Just watch your local news.ClassyWisdom08 wrote:R-Tistic wrote:LOL....I don't know every girl at Spelman, but to be real, most of them I know do look down on Clark in one way or another, and a few girls at Clark I know talk bad about Spelman. One of my homegirls at Spelman was like "I mean, I don't have a problem with Clark, meaning like the buildings and the signs there.....but it's no reason in the world somebody would ever choose to go to Clark over Spelman". One homegirl from Clark was sayin "I can't stand Spelman girls, everytime we walk by and mind our own business, those hoes wanna just mad dog us and give us dirty looks for no reason." So to me, it is probably just hella misconceptions blown outta proportion, and the fact that girls don't get along anyway.LadyJag7 wrote:^^ You don't go to either school so mind ya bizness Females(that's all we've got): - We're stuck up. Some girls are but most I've encountered in my 3 years here are not -Everybody's rich. That's definately not true. A lot girls wish they were rich and do everything to look like they are, but anybody who knows anything knows its all a lie. - We don't like the girls at Clark. That's not necessarily true. There is anymosity between all the AUC schools. But I'll be completely honest, I think the girls at Clark are more outward about their dislike of Spelman girls than we are about them. Most of the time we don't think much of them period. But this is mostly a freshman issue.
