I would assume this post was a joke, except I've never seen this movie either and it took me a minute to realize the 2nd guy wasn't in the scene originally.

A couple years ago a male acquaintance recommended me for a job that I eventually got. I was now working with him and soon noticed he visited a particular hip hop culture site pretty regularly. He was always talking about topics that came up amongst members of this site and urged me to join the discussion.

All things in moderation, I guess. Getting harassed every block I turn by men who seem to think they're entitled to my phone number is one thing, but a good old-fashioned respectful 'You look very nice' every now and then isn't going to ruin my day.

Yes, the women I said who expressed some disappointment are women that I know personally. I'm not saying this means these women are the majority, just the notion that 100% of women dislike the idea of cat-calling isn't true.

Not to try and destroy girl power or anything, but there are women who feel better about themselves after being cat-called. Not that they should, but to say 100% of women dislike it isn't true, either. Ask women who get cat-called all the time and you'll probably hear about how annoying it is, but come by areas where…

"low education, low income female swing voter"

Mentioning the word watermelon. Yes, I think its a stretch.

Sounds like all the bickering that went on when Disney put out earlier vesrions of what Princess Tiana was supposed to look like-"her butt is too big! Her hair isn't curly enough! The f***, why did they try to name her 'Maddy?" If you go to 'ethnic', they were accused of stereotyping and creating a caricature. To…

I don't remember caring when I was young either. I think its more the idea of there being a black(native american/asian/etc.) princess than actually not being able to enjoy the character if they don't look like you. I dont think the movies I liked would have changed if the skin colors were swapped (I'm black and…

Yeah, first the screw up Rue, now this.

My guess, Athasin read the title as women in general, not just black women, being credited with creating jobs for black men and women.

Is this study a roundabout way of trying to scientifically prove that white blonde women are hotter? I smell an extra hidden layer of douchebaggery in this 'study'.

...or maybe your girlfriend just doesn't want to discuss how hot every other girl you see is.

One day I hope to know what compels curly-haired white people to compare themselves to blacks. That sheeit ain't close to the same.

Black women are a huge portion of the hair care market. They visit salons more often, pay more when they do, and use more services. Anyone who calls themselves a professional in the haircare industry should know this, and it is a financial misstep not to take advantage of it.

All of these replies are starting to make me paranoid, as I've been required to supply a photo ID for every job I've gotten since I was 16 (I was asked for a social security card as well). And...we're all just 1 lost social security care away from having some criminal be able to open a bank account in our name? Crazy.

Thats surprising to me. Every job I've ever had has required me to supply photo ID during the stage when I'm completing tax forms/paperwork/etc., and they're pretty strict about which kind. One of the few substitutes for a driver's license is a passport, for example, which I would have needed a state ID to obtain in…

They don't ask for ID when cashing a check? Wow.

I've lived in New York for a short period, and yes, I needed ID.
