What criticism was there over the initial Iyanla show? Can someone link to it?

Yeah no you didn’t say that thing about black women being viewed as less attractive but someone else did, though I can’t find their comment now. They said (and I’m paraphrasing) that black women aren’t held to the same higher standards of beauty as white women are, because no one thinks they could achieve them. Or at…

Agreed.

She sounds a lot like Britney Spears.

Yeah I really don’t think anyone would know who she is unless you follow hip hop culture. I mean she dated Wiz Kalifah and has a son with him, but then you probably don’t know who that is either, lol.

I briefly considered pre-ordering the book from Amazon, as I love Amber Rose and her IG is funny as hell, and I could use a little help in the confidence department, but I don’t think I’m going to buy it because really the whole book is probably just one page on which it reads: “be unrealistically magically hot 24/7.”…

Absolutely true, but I don’t think it’s because black women are viewed as inherently unattractive in comparison with white women. I don’t think it’s that at all. Look at Lupita N’yongo or Halle Berry, notoriously gorgeous. I think it’s because the implication (and sadly, often the reality) is that white women accept…

I viewed this first on another website; I forget which, maybe Uproxx? I don’t remember. But it was amazing and I went into the comments to say as much, and of course no one cares about her voice. Just that she’s fat and oh did you know how gross and disgusting she is? Bitch betta have my money...for pizza, etc. etc. I…

You are out of your fucking mind. My a/c stays on a minimum of 5 months out of the year. I never turn that thing off. My house is very muggy anyway, and my room is the worst because there’s no ventilation. I do have the ceiling fan on, but it really is just to oscillate the cold air coming from the a/c. Sometimes even…

This is so funny and I love her, but the fact that a 160 lb. woman feels the need - even as a joke - to say that she can “catch a dick” any time she wants, is indicative of what’s wrong with society.

It’s been 14 years since I was in high school, but back then school lunch was one dollar. It never occurred to me back then that someone wouldn’t be able to pay one dollar for a lunch. My father used to give me $20 a day before he left for work. But now, as an adult, I know that unfortunately such conditions exist too…

The best advice to give to anyone about to have a 3-way is this. Always make sure you give everyone involved equal attention. If everyone involved follows this rule, no one will feel left out. Sometimes you gotta sit out for a few minutes, but you won’t feel left out if you know that your turn is coming. No one wants…

I am amazed at these guys - all older men, apparently - who are so misguided and delusional that they truly believe that taking their genitals out, in front of young teens no less, is going to end well? I hope it’s senility, and not what it probably is, idiocy.

I know it is tempting to want this father prosecuted, but it’s just not possible. It’s a real gray area to try to prove in a court of law that there is causation (or even a correlation) between the two acts. Maybe the young girl had been planning suicide for some time; you just don’t know. She could have been angry at…

Who cares about Louis CK taking his dick out? What female hasn’t had some male friend or male friend of a friend whip it out on her. You just laugh and go about your business. Who cares? And I think the word “nigga” (I refuse to call it “the N-word,” because that’s something else entirely) is a cultural thing but also…

My BFF got married in 2006 to this really sweet and devoted guy who worshipped her, but he was too nice and had pitifully low self-esteem. Once when I was staying at her house in 2010, while she was at work, I’d ordered some food delivery, and when the doorbell rang, her hubby hid behind the stairs. I thought it was…

If the women don’t mind this sort of arrangement, and especially if they welcome it and request it, I don’t see the harm. The feminism stereotype is that ALL women are supposed to want X, Y, or Z. But isn’t feminism really about the choice to do whatever the fuck you want? So if these women choose to be hot and get…

OK I feel like there was some information given to everyone prior to this that I wasn’t around for. My questions are:

That whole Jay-Z thing was super vague. Or is it just me? So like...what’d he do to that woman? He was supposed to do X in exchange for Y, I’ve gleaned, and she did Y but he did not do X. Wtf are X and Y? #polynomials

Women DO lie about rape, though. It actually broke up a friendship I had with a really nice girl. I’ll call her Amy. We met in junior high and then reconnected over Facebook as adults. She had a lot of health problems due to being born very premature. She was mostly blind and also had a raspy voice. She was very very…
