That’s exactly what the story is. We’ve all heard that from family members and why would we not believe something we’ve heard our entire lives?
I was thinking that myself.
Tell your sister and her husband there are entire cultures who don’t use gendered personal pronouns. Iranians are just one example. I’m going to guess telling your brother-in-law that Middle Easterners are more forward-thinking than he is will probably send him into a mild coronary. Of course, if he weren’t already…
People are lying to you.
I get that but, having worked in retail for years, these blowout sales are usually cheap waffle makers that are 2 for $15.

Well, check out the vitriol one poster sent me after writing that. Ha.
White. folks. come. get. your. people.
I’m god.
Kathy. Thanks for all lives mattering this, yourself.
Ugh. There is so much here that I can’t even.
Universe forbid your daughters ever fall short of your expectations of the purest Black feminism.
If you’ve lost a family member to police murder, you have my greatest sympathies. I’m a survivor of DV who knows exactly what the white power structure has done to our communities.
Good point.
