Beyonce would be damn good at it too.

thank you, thank sincerely for writing this. My boyfriend, whom I love very very much, is white. I am black. If I ever work through my hangups about marriage in general, I would absolutely marry my boyfriend. And raise our children. But I get scared about issues of race, and imputing forced racial issues on potential…

Miley Cyrus should not be slut shamed. She is discovering her sexuality and how free she finally is as an adult. She can smoke, drink, have sex and she's rich. She should explore whatever she wants. However, I would suggest that Ms. Cyrus needs what I needed when I was her age. Someone in your corner, who is not…

Rhianna's reaction was the BEST. When you google "giving someone the side eye" this should be the only picture that comes up.

Whoah, whoah, whoah there Nelly, I mean Lynx. Unless these lyrics are secretly coded, I was not under the impression that "I know you want it" translates to "I know you want to be sexually assaulted" or "Blurred lines" = "I am going to roofie you."

BWAHAHAHAHA... wait, this is a joke right? My girl is not only the client, she is the club president of lace wigs. Her wonderfully hilarious response to her hair getting caught in the fan made reference to hair commonly used in lace wigs, and less in weaves because Malaysian hair can be difficult to weave in.

Some of my friends are saying her new pixie cut is actually just a wig, an excellent lace human hair wig. If anyone would have access to cutting edge "lay that hairline like its your own technology" it would be Ms. Carter. But I don't think her new haircut is a wig. . . it seems like a hell of alot of work to wear a…

I saw the commerical differently; I know that Truecar very likely doesn't have an alchemist formula that will knock off the extra $400.00 I will pay (as a black woman) for a car but I was sucked in by the idea that their was a company that could give me some sought of "magic" help that would allow me to take back…

As someone who found their love of reading in large part to historical romance novels by Catherine Coulter, Jude Deveraux, Johnanna Lindsey, Judith Mcnaught, I will always love period time pieces. But I stopped reading them because of their complete and utter lack of even the occasional black male or female…

Me too! I love historical romance novels but always felt left out. This is awesome!!

From Jezebel.com's article on women and consumer pricing, entitled "Turns Out Being Born a Woman Is a Major Financial Mistake"

meh to both of them.

It used to be against the law under the Indian Welfare Child Act to not notify the "tribe" (hate that word) before adopting out a native american baby but this Tuesday the Supreme Court just blew a big hole in that whole thing.

I hate that SCOTUS shut the Voting Rights Act . . . but sigh . . . they kind of have a point. The data used to determine which areas of the country have a serious history of race based voter disenfranchisment is 40 years old. I am not saying that there aren't some places that we can all agree will likely always need…

Just for the purposes of clarification ( and because I love me some Paula Deen) it should be noted that Jezebel credits Radar Online with the article about Paula Deen admitting to being a huge flaming racist at a deposition, which is fine. except Radar Online got the story from the National Enquirer, which claims to…

This was funny . . . a month ago. I am not trying to be spicy here, but documenting the extreme downward spiral of this woman is not funny anymore (if it ever should have been is another discussion) it pains me now.

When I read your comment, I laughed so hard I accidentally snorted my coffee out of my nose. That was awesome.

This is a genuine questions, how is "When someone asks, how drunk they have to be before they can't consent to sex" akin to "Frat House changes "No means yes/ yes means anal?" I've taught sex education to students who were between the ages of 14 - 17 and I have had three male (one time a female) students ask me how…

Agreed! ...but then again, maybe we are both bad feminists.

I agree with everything in this article! It's nuanced, funny and informative without being dickish. I read this and I am like "let the church say amen!" Yet strangely, I didn't think Obama's comment was offensive at all. I actually thought it was kind of cool/cute. Is my feminism broken?
