Props to the pimp



When someone mentions a pimp many dirty things come to mind, drugs, exploitation,hedonism. These are some strong misconceptions proliferated by the media. To really understand "The Game" you must first realize that, if you're white, it is very hard to understand unless you are born to or you have an in. Sure Pimps take all the money from their Hos and sometimes a bitch has to get slapped, but that's part of the game and what people fail to understand is that it is a mutual thing."Pimps don't need hos and hos don't need pimps." You see a Pimp is more than some random guy dumping a bitch on the street and taking her money at the end of the night. I personally thought that this was the case and it often confused me as to why a woman would put up with that. But a Pimp is more than that a Pimp is a hos financial manager, best friend and a teacher.
When a pimp goes scouting for a ho he looks for a few things. He looks for the stoner, the waif, the directionless woman. Some may say these men are predadtors and amongst themselves Pimps will readily agree that being a predadtor is how you get a ho. Once a Pimp has a ho he needs to control her mind. Again that sounds terrible, but that's how the relationship has to be if the woman wants to get taken care of. And that's what Pimps do they take care of their hos. They get them off the drugs and away from the gangs. A ho needs to be clean she needs to be smart she needs to be able get that trick and take everything for her Pimp. In return the Pimp is there to protect her; he posts her bail when she gets caught by the police, he puts a roof over her head and feeds her kids, he buys her nice clothes. Sure he takes all of the money for himself and lives a rather lavish life, but its hard work managing for a ho and imagine doing it for over eight hos. That's the way it has to be for the relationship to work if a ho doesn't give the Pimp all the money then how is the Pimp supposed to help the ho if she's in trouble.
A Pimps life isn't easy not only does he have to manage the ho he has to make sure that he doesn't get knocked. Its a challenging game to play and hos are free to choose their Pimps so its the job of the Pimp to make sure shes happy and knows what she's doing. He has to teach her how to turn the tricks how to get the man and most importantly how to get the money.
I have by no means covered every aspect of Pimping and if you want to know more I reccomend a movie called American Pimp. This movie will enlighten you on all that is "Pimpology" and give you some insight from the real Pimps of the world not those "Macks" that you see on TV and in the movies.
