Bandy don't blame it on me. Genna is at fault she is the one that got the ball rolling with her great love affair about DER. If she would've stay in her place which was "someone he with slept" than we will have nothing to talk about. She doesn't reliazed she was used like 2 day paper towel everytime he need to wipe his azz she made herself available. I know Queen ;D that's not a love affair that's an unhealthy obsession and you know what's the sad part their are sorry females out there like that. Human toilet paper lmao ;D ;D reminds me of Margie Hendricks in Ray. he told those women right off the deal they disregarded anyway like all of a sudden he was going to leave his family for them because they was giving him some Good Woe(Got that from the Jamaican artist Beenie man..it's a song on his album talking about that and Good Woe is..you know what ;D)

What happen to self respect!! I guess the words were non-existence in Genna's household!

Sometimes men tell women exactly where they stand. The woman tells the man she can hang in this type of relationship all the while thinking her Good Woe is gonna lure him away from his wife/woman. They are foolish enuff to think that eventually he will see things their way. They spend a great deal of time in a wasted relationship thinking he is gonna leave the wife for them. When it doesn't happen they are devastated and wake up one day and realize that life has passed them by.

They should expect only sex and nothing more because for one they already know he was a married man to begin with or with someone. you get what you ask for. self-respect is a must have if they don't have it they better learn about it and get some.

True and just because they give good sex means nothing they can get it just about anywhere. you got some men dumb enough to fall for the b.s. Why would they short change themselves is the question.

This just proves that the way to a man's heart is not through good woe. Anybody can spread their legs wide and often.

Low self esteem! I can understand being submissive at an early age 20's but dang following that trait way till her 60's!!.. when you have to stroke someone ego 24/7 there is a problem! You are good person.. you didn't know WAKE THE F**CK UP, The relationship is DOOM! Walk away... shut the door.. DAMN GET OUT!!! Hell I am tired..

OK let me play devil's advocate on this one. First I think nothing about this should be put on Jr's shoulders.. he didn't ask for his parents to do anything they did.
However .... If Gena wants to change her name to Ruffin it's her business, but she has to realize everyone is going to see through the purpose that appears on the surface.
If she wants to sell anything immoral on e-bay it's her business, but she has to realize there are those that are going to disagree with her.
If she want's to write about on her life with DER as she remembers it, it's her business, but she has to realize there are those who will not believe it and will attempt to discredit it.
But if she does ANY of this in an attempt to provide for her family, then she did what she had to. I don't know Gena, or much about her, I know she danced or sang or something. If in her later years she ended up unmarketable, then maybe she is doing all she knew how to do - survive.

Then genna should 'survive' on her own merits instead of hustling and disgracing David's legacy. Jr is good and well grown and can take care of his self. The only person taking care of genna is genna and it is at the expense of David's grown children. Why doesn't she get a job like everyone else?? Hell, David's ex-wife did and she is more entitled to David's legacy than Genna. If this was Diane Showers doing this, her name would've been dragged through the mud 100x times over. Genna has made all this 'everyone's business' because she has been trying to 'hawk' her products to David's fans. She can take our money but we are not allowed to criticize her?? If it's her 'business' , she should not have written a book, dragging David's family and friends down the gutter in the process. I feel no sympathy for Genna. She's a leech and it's horrible what she's done to David's legacy. Just awful! I agree.

Ok I agree Jr. was as much a victim of this relationship as anybody. However, the feelings expressed here and other places about him have nothing to do with his parent’s dysfunctional relationship. I think they Both could have done better by him. I feel he deserved better. Jr. has shown himself to be extremely rude and ignorant to people. Jr. was "Bought" to this board a while back, for no other reason then to disrespect the women on this board. Then when he got Cussed out, everybody over here was wrong. Those post have been deleted, but from the tone of his post it was obvious that he had not Read what was being said, rather he was reacting to the lies he was told about the members of this board. Misery loves company. Jr. is not entitled to respect just because he is one of David Ruffin’s children. And NODODY over here is going to kiss his A$$. The fact that this board bears his father’s name does not in anyway justify the way he acted over here. This is not the only board where this has happened. The person or person’s that encouraged him to come over here certainly weren’t thinking about his feelings. It is Genna's business to change her name. But because she chose to make her “new” name public, especially in light of the fact that most people know that Ruffin never married her. Then she should not be surprised when people talk about her the way they do. I am not surprised by her doing business on EBay at all. BUT when you create merchandise to sell(some tee shirts),and claim to be doing so to set up a trust fund for David Ruffin’s grand children (Jr’s. kids) IMO that’s a hustle. Just sell your stuff, people can choose to buy it or not. But playing on the love fans has for David Ruffin, to help support her grand kids. Please!!!!! Not any of Ruffins kids are living on easy street. You don’t see any of them asking his fans to help support their kids, which also happen to be his grand children. And if they were I would feel the same way. Sandra Ruffin has donated many items belonging to Ruffin to keep his legacy alive. Donated. It is Genna’s business, but when you are trying to convince people that you are his common law wife, then your actions should follow suit. The book of course was her business. I believe it was therapeutic for her, because it was not what it was advertised to be. I believe she was abused by Ruffin. However her depiction of others in her book was unfair and in some cases untrue. In an attempt to make people believe that She was the best thing that ever happened to Ruffin. She made everybody but herself look sinister, and immoral. IMO that’s one of the reasons why her book was not well received. Because her own words make her look like a fool. Not because she was treated so horribly,but because she continued to run behind her abuser. She still is. Living or trying to live off of another’s celebrity is wrong. Especially when you made NO contribution to that career what so ever. Trying to control an image or legacy that you have NO legal right to is wrong. Having a baby by a celebrity only makes you a baby’s momma. But I guess in her defense, she feels like he owes her.
I don't feel like she has damaged his legacy,because people that love David Ruffin really don't care about Genna. To fans he is remembered and loved for his amazing talent. Not because of his realtionships with any of these women. Nothing he did or didn't do outside of performing matters,because nobody can take away what he left behind for us all to enjoy.
