by Eve Sharon Moore

Author, Eve Sharon "Evia" Moore urges African American women to make marriage to a "Quality" man of whatever skin shade or background a priority, especially if there are to be children. "Quality" is the key criterion," she stresses and points out that "African American women must broaden their scope to the entire global village as they look at marriageable men, and if they did, they would find many quality men from other racial and ethnic groups who appreciate black women.

"And let's face it, finding a man of quality in the ocean is much easier than finding him in a backyard puddle."
