So, I’m just trying to logistically understand: At a party, how does ones penis get to your face? Its seems like a lot of details are left out of this account or reporting here on the root. Where were the two of you at this party? Just out where everyone is or secluded? How exactly are you physically in a position for…

I honestly think the biggest problem is labels siphoning off 99.99% of streaming revenue before it gets to the artist. If those contracts were more equitable - voila artist would be eating more.

Hopefully artist will start realizing the old model of labels as gatekeepers is dead. The most valuable members of your team…

The fact Ben Affleck still has an acting career is proof there is a lack of diversity in Hollywood. How many chances does this guy get to bomb out? A: As many as his good ole’ boy Damon can spoonfeed him!

This whole “don’t ask don’t tell” thing just seems to reinforce the cultural preoccupation with slut shaming and unhealthy views on having an ejoyable sex life overall. Like if you can’t be honest with someone about your sex life in a long-term relationship, why are you with them? Its not like you have to get into…

The sad thing is the race of the Egyptians being debated is part of the problem - black people have been denigrated in the global sense for so long that it's become inconceivable that Egyptians could be African. There are braided afro wigs of 100% human hair in the museum of Cairo, the same that are drawn on…

Also...are you aware of how non-black South Africans got to South Africa? You are aware of the Boers correct? They're Dutch settlers genius. You do know where Dutch people come from right? Hint: It's not in Africa.

Meh its not frustration...think of it more like a healthy amount of no fucks for ethnocentric superiority/white appropriation - mixed with Hennessy and condescension. And pretty sure you just said pop culture...is not part of cultural commentary. Which is pretty much an oxymoron...otherwise it wouldn't be "pop culture"…

You mean the group of people like those who actually base their reasoning on things like SCIENCE? Yea, I'm one of those people. All of the races came from Africa, then migrated to other parts of the world, and adapted to those specific environments. Short of modern humans breeding with Neanderthals, who died out - the…

Ok, let's follow your stream of logic.

1) The dancers hair is made from Caucasian/horse hair...styled "like an Egyptian"
2) Egyptian "hair" as it is depicted in popular culture has the same distinct cut/styling as these dancers, and is modeled after displays on heiroglyphics
3) However in those heiroglyphics that "hair" i…

Wait, but you're forgetting something. Hmm, what is it. descended from her father...we're missing something... OH YES. Duh, you forgot the woman whose womb she was actually birthed from, an Ethiopian.

Obvioushuh16 is not at all correct. Her FATHER Ptolemy was 100% Macedonian. Her mother was 100% Ethiopian. So if you want to talk about what we'd consider "today" and the whole nasty 1-drop rule that was invented in our society - she wouldn't be white, she'd be black - though more accurately - biracial.

Her father was Macedonian, - it is more likely her mother as well as her sister were Ethiopian. Ethiopians are African last time I checked. So if her mother was Ethiopian...she's not white, she was Ethiopian and Macedonian. Not exactly white.

Because popular culture is much more accurate than ACTUAL HISTORY.

Royal egyptians wore their hair in wigs fashioned like braids. The "egyptian cut" is a disambiguation of the actual style depicted in heiroglyphics. Basically what was presented as this in the form of a white woman were actually wigs with african hair/afros in a braided style. They are comprised of 100% human hair. The…

Fyi, Royal Egyptians wore wigs so what you're defining as "non black" or "egyptian style" in heiroglyphs is just a wig they wore fashioned similar to braids that drape over the head.

Just fyi, royal Egyptians wore wigs so a lot of what we perceive as their "hair" in heiroglyphs covered their actual hair.

Just fyi, Egyptians wore wigs so a lot of what we perceive as their "hair" in heiroglyphs are wigs. This is some really sick appropriation grossness on Perry's part:

Not really. Just people who claim ethnocentric ownership with little information on the subject matter tend to require a certain amount of "education" and facts.
