Nuns are lay people and cannot ever be a member of the Catholic clergy because they are women. Only men are allowed to take holy orders aka receive the priesthood because the Roman Catholic Church follows the words laid down in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and 1 Timothy 2: 8-15. So, no, Jezebel is not praising the band of…
Oprah cosigns the work of Tyler Perry so that should show you how crappy her taste is. The only thing filthy about that book is its terrible writing. Seeing as Oprah thinks Tyler Perry is some sort of genius, I can see how she would appreciate trash.
The hatred black men spat at black women over this was truly disgusting. It was very much a trending topic. Considering how important the topic is to black women and to the black feminists who came up with the #solidarityisforwhitewomen hashtag, one would think a site ostensibly devoted to the issues of women would…
By the way, you do know that sedatives are the go-to treatment to stop seizures. Seizures can resolve themselves or, if they occur in a medical environment, they give Ativan. Why are you acting as if giving first line therapy is some extraordinary event. Or, are you claiming the child was in status epilepticus?
Your anecdatum is utterly meaningless. But, kindly tell us what type of doctor gave you this information. Was this seizure a febrile seizure? Which vaccination was it? Was the vaccine formulation whole cell or acellular? I certainly hope this one doctor you consulted in the ER made these inquiries and I certainly hope…
If you contribute to the spread of diseases we cured a long time ago, you are worthy of every drop of contempt you receive.
Thank you! We are the most hated and despised people in society. From the way we are portrayed in the media to the fact that we are rejected in online dating sites, black women are treated as undesirables. This is why black women on Twitter started the #Blackpowerisforblackmen.
I'm a black woman and I do not believe Kanye's bullshit for a minute. Kanye is angry because he's not being indulged. Kanye has done the worst thing possible: he's manipulated and degraded the actual racism black people face because people and the press aren't doing what he wants. Kanye is angry that people no longer…
Gotcha. You need attention.
I've been perusing your comment history to see if the two comments from you I've just read are an aberrations from a normally thoughtful and reasonable person, but they aren't. You mock oppression and/or pretend it doesn't exist. You sneer at Jezebel's efforts to warn people in advance that the subject of an article…
I don't know if Nicki has ever been raped (I certainly hope not), but if she hasn't, then she cannot take ownership over it. What claim does Nicki have to the word? A victim of rape can reclaim his or her power by claiming ownership of the word for himself or herself, but those of us who've been lucky enough not to…
Well, that's it folks. Obsidian05 knows an Egyptian weed dealer, so all other opinions on this matter are irrelevant.
Well, they tried to muscle France into letting them hold their wedding at Versailles which, naturally, was met with laughter. They kept asking until they finally realized that, like Kim appearing on the cover of Vogue, it will never happen. They must be installing it because they didn't get their way. I love that they…
I meant to say that I hoped never to see Idris Elba in a Tyler Perry movie again. I am glad that he has more opportunities. What's incredibly sad is that there is so little work for black actors that they have to resort to being in his movies. Angela Basset should not be in a Tyler Perry movie. Unfortunately, black…
First of all, just because you are a racist and think all black people look alike doesn't mean we all do. Own your racism, ignorance, and stupidity. I'm black and I can differentiate between black people. I can also differentiate between people of all races because they are individuals and they aren't some lump of…
Oh, so you're a racist! Why didn't you just say so in the beginning and save us the time?
Even if that man became a billionaire, it would be in spite of what Wahlberg did to him. No one knows what's become of him. No one knows what became of the other Vietnamese man he attacked. And, I haven't heard of any of the black kids at whom Wahlburg threw rocks and racial slurs just for going to school becoming…
If anyone is wondering how Ashanti feel to the reality show level, I can provide the moment her career ended. It was June 2003. Beyonce performed Crazy In Love at the BET Awards which was the first time she performed it live at an award show. She burned the stage down and then Ashanti tried to come out with her…
I know that he was a victim of a hate crime. I also know he didn't go on to be a millionaire and a movie star. You see, when people of color become felons, the odds of their being accepted back into society are extremely slim. But, you know, people like you side with bigots. You probably think Trayvon Martin and…
