"May your fro grow and your skin always glow"

If you have had the pleasure (yes the pleasure) of knowing me in real life then you know I stan for my black women because we are literally magic. I've been seeing posts like the ones below a lot lately from black men making fun of black women. Then you wonder; Why are black women so angry? When we constantly hear things like "I like my women light skinned, what am I going to do with a dark skinned chick?", "It's not that black girls are ugly, I just can't talk to a girl darker than me", " I don't care if my mom is black, black girls are just ugly", "I think that black girls are ugly, except for the gorgeous light skins" and that's that's just the tip of the iceberg. Now are you really going to sit there and ask me why WE are angry? I'm sure you've noticed WE have a voice now. Does that shock you that we've finally decided to stand up for ourselves? I don't hate black men and I really appreciate ...

Feminism; un-African?

Feminism isn't a label, it's a definition. I hate to break it to you but if you believe in equal rights for both men and women you're a feminist, whether you like it or not! As women we are so scared to speak up because it shows "we're angry", it's not lady like. We want to be liked so much that we willingly let people (men/society) oppress us. We are still oppressed and being a feminist, having a voice, having an opinion does not mean I am less of a woman. It might be un-African of me but times have changed, we have evolved. Society can no longer tell me how to act (be lady-like so you can get a husband), how to dress (dress modestly so you won't get raped) and how to talk (don't have an opinion, the man is always right, respect your husband).  Society dictates what I have to do with my body, as if men have a right to do as they please with MY body. Women deserve to know their bodies without being told what's right by society, reli...

Think like a QUEEN, act like a SPARTAN

The year 2016 I prophecies that no fuckboy tactics used against you shall prosper. Amen!! Ladies are you happy being practice? Are you going to perfect the art of keeping men warm and preparing them for other women or are you going to Spartan up? Are all them "Netflix & Chill" days over? It's time to stop crying over situationships that you intentionally put yourself in. Because let's face it, a man will not have Netflix and Chill with you unless you approve of it, a man will not put you in any situationship unless you agree to it, a man will not come in and out of your life as he pleases unless you allow it. The year of the blame game is over, it's time we grew a pair of steel balls and took back control of our spartanhood! Sticking around for a guy to finally want to date you or love you will not do you any good. Men can smell desperation and no one like a desperate Debbie. YOU ARE WOMAN DAMMIT!  I'm not going to enforce my feminist ideals on you ...
