Excerpts
“…I started to write and I realized that there are many women in our country that could benefit from the secrets that I am imparting to my daughters. The lessons here are invaluable, and it doesn’t matter how old you are; every lady on earth is someone’s daughter. As a matter of fact, some of the things that I discuss in this book are very unpopular with some of my male friends. One of them even said, “Man, do you have to tell them all that, if they don’t know, they just don’t know! It’s one thing to tell your own daughters, but why do you have to tell the whole world?” That’s when it dawned on me how I could actually be a positive influence on many women.
LOCKWOOD SAYS…
"Think of a man as a beautiful, grand piano. When played by an untrained hand all it produces is noise. However, when stroked by the hands of an expert, the results are incredible. I’m going to teach you how to get the best music out of your piano."
There are literally thousands of ladies, especially in the African American community, that are growing up, or have grown up, without a loving fathers or male figure in their lives. Many of them spend their entire lives on the road of hard knocks trying to figure out how to be good wives, good mothers, and even a good girlfriend. After all, how could they possibly know any better if they never had a father in the home to teach them, nor an example of how a man and woman interface in a successful relationship? In fact, many women are choosing not to marry at all. According to the U.S. Census, African Americans are marrying each other at the lowest rate ever recorded. Imagine if you wanted to teach yourself to swim, but every time you got in the water you just about drown, pretty soon you’re going to decide that swimming just isn’t the activity for you. Many women have reached that point of exhaustion. They’re just sick and tired of being sick and tired.
When I was dating, I could always tell when a woman didn’t grow up with a strong male role model in her life. Many of these women don’t even realize that they were giving off that vibe, but a wise man can spot it as clear as a neon sign. When an opportunistic man spots that trait, he knows its going to be as easy as “taking candy from a baby” to take advantage of you. So many women today desperately need a man’s love, but the only way that they can relate to that emotion is through intimacy. That is why a father’s love is irreplaceable. It allows our daughters to feel unconditional love and compassion without ever being physically intimate. Can you imagine how damaging such a thing can be for a young woman that sets off looking for love in all the wrong places? The important thing now is to acknowledge the fact that there is an entire generation of young ladies whose only way of learning about men is by what they get on the streets, what they see on television, and by trial and error.”
LOCKWOOD SAYS…
"Too often women want to size him up for a wedding tuxedo before they even get to know him; playing house when they should be playing it cool.”
“Too many women attempt blame men for their relationship woes. If you let women tell it, they’ll try to make you believe that they’ve got it all together, and they would have no problems if their man would just “act right.” I actually get tired of hearing these same ole complaints, “My man cheated on me.” “My husband abused me.” “This other man was on the “Down Low.” “All men are dogs.” Don’t blame men every time you come up short in a relationship. If you’re looking for someone to blame, start with yourself. A man can only do what you allow. If you allow nonsense, then nonsense is what you’ll get. If you demand respect, respect is what you’ll get. Remember, you’ve got the gas and the brake under your food. But, you’ve got to learn how to demand respect. If you’re consistently having problems with men, start with the only thing that is consistent in all of your bad relationships – YOU!”
LOCKWOOD SAYS…
"Submission is only a bad thing if you don’t take your time to find a man that’s worthy."
“DON’T ignore the red flags!” Some women are notorious for ignoring the warning signs even if they’re staring you right in the face. Instead of those flags just sitting there while you ignore them, let me wave a few of them for you. This way you can’t say I didn’t tell you.
1. If your man is living in his mother’s house for more than a couple of months (I give a small grace period) – RED FLAG!
2. Does your man drive an expensive car, but rents an apartment? – RED FLAG!
3. Does your man over accessorizes? – RED FLAG!
4. If your man wears more than one ring per hand, more than one bracelet per wrist, and more than one necklace per neck. – RED FLAG!
5. If your man is always the one that’s over-dressed for the occasion. - RED FLAG!
6. If your man is constantly spending money on you without regard to price (i.e. clothes, trips, jewelry) - RED FLAG!
7. Does your man constantly ask to “hold” some money or expect you to pay while on dates? - RED FLAG!
8. If he first approaches you with a flattering, yet rehearsed lines. - RED FLAG!
9. If he says he has a job but can’t articulate exactly what it is that he does for a living. - RED FLAG!
10. If he talks more about himself than he inquires about you. - RED FLAG!
REMEMBER YOUR POWER!”
