Black people make up 13% of the population. That’s not taking out those too young to vote or who can’t due to voter restriction laws. You really are trying to conflate the 10% of a 13% minority with the 63% majority that is white non-hispanic people? When it came down to it, a super majority of black people who voted…

What is your fucking point really, black people must be perfect toe the line or shut up ? Over 96% of black women who voted, voted for Hilary and this includes those were behind Bernie or had mixed feelings about her or plain did not like her and the end of the day we put on our big girl panties and realized that…

Initially I corrected that figure in my head, too, “53% percent of white women [who voted] voted for Trump”. But then I corrected myself. The white women who were eligible to vote, but didn’t, are complicit in the electing of our current admin. Therefore, the phrase is not inaccurate in the context of the article,…

Way too many people (unfortunately, a number of Black people among them) consider the antebellum south some kind of romantic time past when they should be looking at all those fucking plantations as goddamn concentration camps. No one looks at Auschwitz and says “Oh I think I should have a wedding there it’s so…

Coppola continued. “I’ve always loved the women in the South, and the South in general; it’s so exotic and different.”

Passive whites don’t get a pass for white supremacy.
You can’t claim you aren’t part of the system when you enjoy all the benefits that system confers to you.

#notallwhitewomen amirite?

I exercised through pregnancy 1 & 2 including running, but by baby 3, I might as well wear a diaper while running because I always felt like I would pee my pants. I don’t run anymore, just do fast walking with my doggies every day.

With her body, even though she popped already, there’s probably very little jiggle. Your abs do a good job of holding things firmly until later in the pregnancy. If you have weak muscles or multiple pregnancies it gets a little looser. But based on her running in her 8th month with her first, her muscles are probably…

Because the implication (this is across the board when people are offering unsolicited advice) is that she might be dumb enough to not ask her physician and harm her baby. It’s rude, condescending and unnecessary.

yap, as long as you continue doing what are you doing and doctor clears you up, you are good to go. there was this case. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3595150/The-workout-life-Fitness-guru-slammed-weightlifting-100lbs-nine-months-pregnant-welcomes-son-named-Bly-Rhunar-two-weeks-late.html

Yes!!! YAY FOR RESCUED DOGS!!! Thanks for rescuing! <3

I’m pregnant currently, and this made me sob. I haven’t actually had crazy hormone swings yet, but this is one of the most amazing things I’ve ever read and she is absolutely stunning and amazing.

Most OB/GYNs will say whatever you do while not pregnant, you can certainly do while pregnant - if everything else is as it should be.

Me, sitting on the couch: “Ugh, it’s too hot to go to the gym and run on the treadmill for 30 minutes.”

Apropos, the verb “addle” originally meant the act of shaking an egg to break the yolk inside, thus terminating gestation without destroying the egg as a population-control method against nesting geese and other waterfowl (who will just lay another one if they lose it, but will sit on an addled one until it goes bad,…

... can no longer enjoy these potato chips. Dammit woman, why do you have to inject all this aspiration in me this Saturday afternoon?

I am so impressed with women who are able to keep up with their peak fitness while pregnant. I’m seven months pregnant and while I’m still working out, bladder control and a big baby ruled out anything longer than a few sprints long ago!

“It’s still a conversation that needs to be had. I represent so many different people: women, black women, pregnant women, Wonder women. It’s my responsibility to make sure I’m a voice and an advocate for them.”
