I.. I think I have a new (old?) crush.

Cornrows have been normalized? When was the last time you or your white friends wore them? Could you wear them to work? This isn't just black culture, you white people love to wear bindis and headdresses, whatever you can get your hands on, with no understanding of the meaning. WE don't need Jezebel or liberal arts…

Yes, POC should be "glad" you're stealing our cultures through communication (?) instead of imperialism these days. What an upgrade! Thanks, white people! How kind of you.

Now you and I both know you're being dramatic and deliberately obtuse.

Something to make your hard work and the wait worth it, will come along, I'm sure! are you open to relocation? Either way, good luck!

Ouch. I have a number of conventionally pretty female friends working in finance, although in NYC and DC. They seem to be doing fine, love their jobs (as much as one can love a corporate job) so even though there may be challenges I wouldn't discourage woman from entering the field. It is a field in which GPA matters…

Or if they both already had open wounds and then engaged in the fistbump act :)

Isn't dap a smooth, handshake-to-fistbump-(to optional half hug) maneuver? More complex than a simple fistbump.

I would agree with restitution. Reparations is a loaded word.

Actually, the medical team is basing their opinion on the words of the culprit. He *said* he used a blunt object, the victim had sharp wounds, so they're concluding there were multiple perps. The logic is lost on me.

Fair enough.

Yes, let's focus on the few crazies/trolls instead of the many people who are constantly attacked simply for not loving a pop star enough.

Your wife doesn't need your physical protection, because most black men are not the evil, violent, thugs @doitjulia seems to think they are. Thus, your wife doesn't feel like she needs physical security and bodyguards to be near people of a certain race. But maybe @doitjulia is like, way hotter, no offense.

I'm not sure whether everyone is "willfully misunderstanding", or whether you fail to realize how shallow and kind of racist your comment was. So what will all the big evil black guys do to you if you date a short white guy? * rolls eyes *

You mentioned English is your mom's second language? If she was raised in a country where people are less PC and more blunt/open, I can see why she doesn't get the offense. I'm a little surprised at the comments saying you're putting your mom's feelings over your friends' "dignity." As a brown girl who looks racially…

Victim blaming!!! You should be able to knock on anyone's door at anytime! It is a right as fundamental as the right to get drunk! The idea of caution is a tool used by the male patriarchy to control women's behavior!!

My mortgage is much higher than 10% of my income and will take 30 yrs. I'll survive. It's really not as dramatic as these countless blogs make it sound. I'm quite happy. Maybe I won't get to eat out daily but that's a first world problem. I'm happy to be amongst the small percentage of people in this world with higher…

Indeed. Ladies, don't go to law school or business school or art school, that's only for rich people. Just accept your place in society and don't strive for more, unless someone else pays for it. Get a sugar daddy ladies, if you're not already rich. Or be in the top 10% of smart ladies so you can get a scholarship,…

But if you need a set number of credits to graduate anyway why not take an internship for credit during the school year? I just graduated from law school and can't imagine not having the experiences I gained from internships. 2 days a week in an office with real lawyers for credit sure beats 2 days a week in a class…
