The movie, Precious, exposed the pain of celebrated broken homes across America. Precious was sexually abused by her mother’s man since the age of 3 and her mother did nothing. Instead of finding a husband to build a home with, she settles for sharing the man with Precious and punishing her for it. After all, having a man is more convenient than the responsibility of a husband. A man moves freely, but a husband has rights. Also, Precious, like her mother, was so starved of masculine needs, that whenever she was dishonored by any male, it was affection to her.

Remember that the main strategy for slavery to succeed was to create fatherless homes and only a wife material attracts husbands.
