This subject can't be discussed reasonably without knowledge of how the body works and the purpose for its fuel.  Often the biggest critics on either spectrum know very little about the human body, health, fitness,  and the difference between health and fitness.  I harken it to the transgender community playing…

Oh I totally agree. Especially with the last statement. I guess in my mind I assumed it was pretty much assumed tevin Campbell was gay. And he’s apart of my childhood (I could listen to him openly without hiding cassettes and cds from my parents unlike my rap albums because i grew up a jehovahs witness). So when he…

This is probably gonna sound ignorant. But I've pretty much guessed tevin Campbell was gay since I was like 10. And I'm 39 now. I don't want to under play his coming out because I've had a first hand seat at watching that struggle (my oldest brother is gay and didn't come out until he was 28.) It's always a huge and…

I from northeast ohio (akron, and I work in Cleveland). I liked his older stuff. Haven't listened to him in a while though. 

Its hard finding a partner.  I'm not sure any ones own "personal research " can be taken seriously due to biases and unrealized personal issues.  Many people (especially in this day and age) aren't accountable or self aware enough to recognize their issues in finding a partner and having it last. Marriage is…

Man. The root has gone down. The comment section used to be filled with open minded folks who would discuss ideals about the topic ultimately having a decent outcome from it. Now it's just full of racist trolls who hate black people.  Yall need to get your old writers back ASAP!

I knew a lot of people (older black folks like my parents) who hated those skits and dave chappelle back then. My parents hated how he portrayed black folks on his show. They also believed he was being irresponsible with the n!gg@ jokes because white folks wouldn't get them and just laugh because n!gg@ was being…

My wife and I just got back (monday) from a week vacation in Miami. We’re older (im 39, let’s say she’s over 37) so we’re not into most any of this newer hip hop. We actually didn’t even know that the concert was at hardrock stadium. My wife and i just got done salsa dancing and decided to go get pics at the stadium…

You got a point but it's never happening 

If you steal a culture’s music. Make millions off of it and believe it’s ok than you don’t have respect for that culture or its people. Which then means you are a racist. Plain and simple. I don’t care that he may have had black acquaintances (not friends because I’ve never researched fats domino claiming elvis as a…

Some believe the two are related. 

If you think black men don’t get abuse for portraying a white character I’d like you to go have a conversation with Michael b Jordan, Jon boyeaga, and Anthony Mackie. They all got the same amount of abuse without the protection. It’s just men are viewed as to have to take the abuse. That’s it. Plus they would probably…

I agree with your comment 100%. Furthermore what is always lacking in this conversation on both sides is the science behind it and how the human body actually works. It seems everyone speaking on this topic base their opinions off of emotions. Not scientific fact. Testosterone, hand to speed coordination, size etc.…

When will folks realize that people like him and kanye didn't do a heal turn, but that this is who they really were all along. I'm tired of folks being surprised or angered by this.  This is who he's always been. When I was in college when his show first aired my parents hated him. Both thought his jokes were…

No. It’s true. It’s in the video and the gun did go off. The family admits that he recently purchased a gun but wasn’t trained on how to use it properly. Where the root messed up is that the family didn’t refute the gun shots from the vehicle. They’re claiming that it was accidental because he apparently didn’t know…

Naw. He'll go after that too. Because ultimately what he and most conservatives want is to loosen the 14-17 amendment of privacy (loosely speaking) and put all of those decisions in the hands of the state. Thays how they're going to go after gay marriage,  Interracial marriage,  adultery being a felony (see the state…

He will go after loving. Watch. I honestly think he believes he is not black. I told my wife back in 2016 that they're gonna bring back segregation.  It won't be the same as separate but equal.  But it will be a new form of it. Just watch.  This is what holding your vote does.  2016 was the most important election in…

Im kinda either way on her. I don’t get into the blackness conversation because I think that kind of ignorance holds us back as black people. I also don’t get into her record as a AG in the early 90s because A LOT of black people were in favor of those 3 strike laws including the naacp and national black caucus. That…

You’re right. Unfortunately people now days need an excuse for every decision. She’s messy. And that’s ok to admit. I wasn’t messy at 22. I’m pretty sure you weren’t either. Non of us are perfect but that doesn’t eliminate the responsibility of us making good decisions in life.

Oh and it isn't that hard to track your calories.  Myfitness pal app literally does it for you.
