I always thought Black Women not being picked on Love Island was a Geography problem so I modelled Love Island UK S5–11.
White men from rural England/Wales/Scotland: 5% ever coupled with a Black woman. 5 of these was actually the woman choosing the man.
If they cast from cities where diversity and interracial dating is higher:
→ Bristol (never cast): projected 24%
→ Birmingham: projected 27%
→ Nottingham: projected 25%
And it’s not just White men. Black men from low-diversity hometowns: 12% coupled with a Black woman.
Black men from high-diversity areas (Lewisham, Newham, Croydon): 60%
Projected using a regression model fitted to the observed data, the more diverse a man’s hometown, the more likely he was to couple with a Black woman, and I used that relationship to estimate rates for cities that contestants aren’t typically casted from.
Love Island typically cast people from places like Essex or Kent etc where influencers are from with low diversity.
Eu lembrei de uma destas "esposa troféu" do tiktok, ela tinha brigado com o marido e, dizendo que estava errada, foi pedir desculpas, aí quando ela fez isso o marido disse que tinha que reativar o cartão de crédito dela. Ela não sabia que ele tinha cancelado porque não fazia nem
I always give this advice for ppl having their 1st baby & it always takes them aback but it's really good advice that my mum gave me:
for the 1st year after a baby, you will want to upend your life. don't quit your job & don't say the word divorce, even tho you'll want to
“I cook for my husband”= You’re a slave
“We split the bills”= Your husband is useless
“I spoil my wife”= You’re a simp
“I dress modestly”= You’re in an abusive marriage
“My wife and I make decisions together”= You’re not a real man
“I can’t do random nights out because I’m married” = You’re husband/wife is controlling
“My wife earns more than me”= You’re a useless leech
“My husband is the breadwinner”= You have no say since you bring nothing to the table
“I don’t need a male/female bestie because I’m married”= Your partner is insecure
This is how some of you see the world 😂
Y’all are far too pathetic and miserable to really understand what goes into making a marriage successful. Happy couples should keep it to themselves because you guys will find a fault in everything they do.
bro to bro: if you like skinnier girls, get yourself a skinny girl. if you like thicker girls, get yourself a thick girl. if you like fitness girls, get yourself a fit girl. you are entitled to your own preferences.
but what you are not going to do bro, is date a girl who is not your type and make her feel inferior to other girls.
I’m so sick of how people drive on the A406, A12 & A13, you’re literally endangering the lives of everyone around you because you think it’s fun to drive way beyond the speed limit. Truly disgusting behaviour
@vorkay_@korejay Basically. Even if the decor is not to your taste. If it’s already been extended then buy that over a new build. That said I get the appeal to people don’t like the idea of renovating and prefer a turnkey house.
@vorkay_@korejay Not necessarily true. Many new build flats bought w H2B are now in negative equity. I know someone struggling to sell a flat for £375k after paying £450k for it. With new build houses you’re better off getting an older house already renovated- they’re desirable & easier to sell
I do agree with Shamea regarding Angela. She confided in Angela which wasn’t wide. Angela stirred the pot and contributed to ruining their friendship. #RHOA
What Rihanna did for black girls in the makeup industry should never be taken for granted. Before her most brands only had 3 or 4 shades for black girls. Now we have so many options. I will always love her down, a true icon 🙏🏾
What Black women in the UK are forcing mixed race women to identify as Black? This does not even believable unless she is referring to online interactions with Americans.
