Not qutie sure what's so strange about that. That's a good concept and point of view to have. Women should make men wait for sex, hell anyone should wait. If you want a relationship that is truly about getting to know each other and falling in love, you should probably stave off sex for a while because it complicates things. If you're not really looking for a long term relationship then do whatever the hell you want.
But I think Alicia Keys has the right idea. I'm not sure if you should put an exact time limit on it like that, but whatever works for you.

i think she just had to get up the courage.

That's messed up. He doesn't look that bad. I think that's a bad pic because I've seen him looking pretty good. That pic makes him look fat

Or maybe he is fat. Happy Alicia!

The way Alicia talks and moves, her mannerisms, always made me suspect she was a closet dyke. This confirms it. File this next to the Craig David "I'm just waiting for the right girl" line in cover stories.

Good for her. A year may be a bit long, but if that is how she felt, good fer her. And if you don't know any 'brotha' who would wait over a year for the woman he loves, you hang out with the wrong kind of 'brothas'.

And why in an interview, does this even come up? When your sex life takes center stage when it should be about your music, then something is wrong. It's just some things people shouldn't even discuss in interviews. Going into it like that does show Alicia kinda forcing the issue to show folks that she's not gay. She knows a lot of folks think that and she shows that it bothers her. So, it's always "my man this, my man that". The cold blooded part about that kinda shit is that it never changes the opinion of what people formed about u anyway. Ask Michael when he married Lisa Marie. That just brought MORE negative attention towards Mike.

Any woman "making him wait a year" is playing mind games and pulling power plays. If it takes a woman a year to decide whether or not a man is "worthy of her" (egotrip alert). she is not very perceptive or thinks way too much of herself. I'm not hanging out with the wrong brothas. I don't hang out with simps. There are 6.5 billion people on the planet and women outnumber men. A couple of months is understandable. A year is power tripping. I'd say run as far and as fast as you can away from her. I don't believe that "waited a year" crap for one minute, although there are some weak brothas who might do just that. I don't know them and would like to keep it that way.

This interview is from the latest issue of Sister 2 Sister magazine. The article is about her work in AIDS awareness and self-love and self-respect for women and they asked about her values in a romantic relationship. The point of the article is not about promotion for any of her entertainment work, so she's not forcing any issues.
Be careful what you assume without finding out the context.

sinisterpentatonic said:

LMAO!!! i can't believe anyone would discuss such matters in public. i'll be sure to posted all the details here the next time i'm in a relationship

I understand this. For the MOST part, I was generalizing about artists, period. Not just Alicia. Although I have seen Alicia in other interviews where she has pressed the issue that she's in love with a man. And I'm always like "Cool. That's how it's should be, ain't it?". You shouldn't have to hit anybody over the head with it. Because when you do, THEN it appears suspect. Now, in Sister 2 Sister and the topic IS sex and self love, then the platform had been set for conversation on how long she made ole' boy hold out. Right on. That still doesn't negate my point on her "Look at me ya'll', see, I like mennnsss."

That's EXACTLY what I posted but I got the ole' finger shaking, head bobbing back and forth thing.

Alicia is rivalled only by Usher in the arrogance stakes, except at least with him he's honest about it. She pretends to be spiritual merely as a way to make herself feel superior to others. The bitch is fake through and through. As for the brother waiting a year, you have to remember this is prestige pussy after all. You'd probably make exceptions for that. A year might be pushing it though.

How do any of you fools know for a fact she is gay?

mikek1 said:

Damn....it ain't that serious

She is a bit butch ....

whoknows said:

There is no such thing as prestige pussy. The belief in that is what makes some dudes simps. All women have one. Just because she's had some airtime/cameratime doesn't make hers any better or worse. Its a mind game, man. Don't fall for it. She's just another chick. She's got a lot more choices but in a one-on-one situation, she's the same as any other woman.

Desire2006 said:

Sooo.....he was unworthy up until a year later? If that was the case, why waste her time and his?

She really sounds like an arrogant ass saying that.

she better have the ill na na.

lilgish said:

I got that ill na na

The word "violated" jumped out at me more than the one year thing. And, why state it like that when you're still with the guy and people know who he is? I mean, she could've said "We waited to get to know each other before we became seriously involved" and left it there.

It's really TMI anyway you slice it, though. I don't care what she was asked.

I haven't really been feelin' Alicia since that "Unbreakable" song. man, that was embarrassing.

cheyenne said:

that song was hot garbage.

lilgish said:

lol

BlaqueKnight said:

Dude, I know that. To me the bitch is repulsive. What I'm saying is you get
a lot of respect for being with a famous woman who is generally regarded as beautiful, talented, succesful, etc. You could have another woman on the side who's better in every way, but it won't give you as much kudos as a celebrity girlfriend. That's what I meant by prestige pussy. But I agree with you, a bitch who's holding out for a year is playing games. But in Alicia's case the game is simple; she doesn't like men but she's got to have a boyfriend to look normal.
