Black woman here. Dark skin with natural hair to boot.

Ok.

Huh? What a bizarre comment.

Aging nicely? Ewwwww.

I do disagree, which I made clear previously.

I don’t understand the passage you pasted, but I guess it’s just a generally confusing “quote” (from some random, unnamed person).

People should date whomever they want, no? I don’t understand the impetus behind thinking less about someone because they don’t date who you think they “should” date.

I read through the list. Ok, he’s said some f’d up things (as have most people). But the list makes reference to him saying that he “dislikes Black girls” but doesn’t actually quote him as saying that. Is there a song or interview in which he denigrates Black women?

Yup, that’s what made Parks and Rec so special (and awesome). Genuinely nice people who cared about each other and the general public. Even the “mean” people on the show were actually nice and caring.

Pardon my ignorance but has Donald Glover made misogynoir comments in the past? This surprised me, but I’m not sure why since I don’t know that much about him.

No one is arguing that her parents can do whatever they want. People are simply pointing out that this move makes this child’s parents seem like opportunists looking for a cash grab.

This seems like the parents are using this opportunity for a cash grab.

Historians? Ummmm...what about the farmers/land owners. They should do whatever they want to with their land and buildings. They don’t owe it to “historians” to have barbs on their land that they neither want nor need.

Huh?

This description has me worried but I’ll check it out and try to keep an open mind.

Singers have, of course, certain measureable qualities to their voices, like being able to hit certain notes. That’s an objective measure. Calling a singer “great” or “good” is completely subjective however. Just because a singer can hit certain notes or possesses certain vocal techniques doesn’t mean their voice is…

I don’t think not wearing make-up is braver or courageous, but if it makes you feel better to think so then...you do you.

Who cares? There are plenty of Met opera singers whose voices I don’t care for.

The courage? You’re kidding, right? What are they doing? Battling forest fires? Infiltrating terrorist cells?

I wear make-up maybe 4 times a year. I’m nowhere near as attractive as Alicia Keys. I had no idea that I was “getting away” with anything...
