Erykah Badu told us to pack light and most thought it was about luggage.
She meant: stop carrying things that aren't yours.
His shame. His insecurities. His inability to see your value. None of that is yours to carry. Pack light.
You have places to go.
what yall not gone do is try to turn this into a black man issue when it’s a MAN issue period. black, white, purple, or blue. a man gone do some raggedy shit to you!!!!
KC defenders is genuinely why dating is the way it is now. Majority ppl feel like if you aren’t in a committed relationship, you aren’t required to respect a human being because there is no “title”, so the person disrespected is invalidated
The second birthright citizenship was upheld, MAGA started talking about:
Sterilization requirements for women.
Visa denials for pregnant women.
ICE targeting pregnant women.
So when they tell you they’re pro-life and pro-women, it’s all bullshit.
Something I noticed is everyone called Amaya from season 6 of love island a sensitive gangster ,funny and cute, when she stayed crying in the villa … but according to bonnet Twitter , Aniya is a “weak btch” for crying twice ? Hmmm. #loveislandusa
Men entering the Love Island space and demanding it cater to them is indicative of an issue in society in general, which is that men have the inability to tolerate a space where they are not the main characters, not catered to nor are the core demographic.
one woman commits a crime and suddenly everyone has a thesis on female nature. male violence is so consistent it has lost its news value. let that sink in.
Patriarchy: Bear my children. Serve me. Sacrifice your dreams. Make my life easier.
Women: We're human beings, not your property.
Patriarchy: See? Feminism is destroying society.
I don't give a shit that America is 250 years old. This country lets people without insurance die, leaves its veterans to rot on the streets, and blows up little kids in their schools.
11 stars for the Confederate states instead of 13 stars for the original colonies is a detail most Americans won’t notice because of our public school system.
Sometimes male anger at “women getting special treatment” reminds me of a gorilla experiment. One gorilla gets a banana every hour. The females next to him get one every four hours. Then someone decides to be fairer and gives the females a banana every two hours instead. The original gorilla? He flips out. He's still getting his banana every hour, but it feels like a loss because his advantage shrank. That's how a lot of men react to basic fairness for women: not as justice, but as theft.
Notice how some men only ‘lose their temper’ with their girl but stay calm with their male boss & coworkers? That's exactly how you identify a calculated abuser.
Kc practiced farewell speech for Aniya.
Started laughing when she was crying.
And got mad when Carl was singing her praises.
This isn't about exploring, he just wanted to humble her.
I’m sure KC does come across as ‘normal’ to the average Black man because he is the perfect case study of the average straight Black man’s use of pro-Black rhetoric to cloak his misogyny & entitlement to Black women’s bodies.
