Hah! That reminds me of when syphilis came to Europe (from Columbus’s crew), it was routinely described in Italy as ‘the French Disease’, and in France as ‘the Genoan disease.’ Gotta find somebody else to blame!
a) SO TIRED of healthcare professionals who don’t listen. JFC, she has a documented history, she knows what the hell the clots feels like. She did not self-diagnose a “zebra” from reading WebMD, FFS.
One of the wealthiest, most successful people in the world and doctors STILL don’t take her seriously about her own body. But sure, black maternal mortality is just a factor of “access” and “education. Ok.
Having a baby is already dangerous enough. But to then have it with the known embolism issue and the embolism then causing the coughing fit opening the wound and then the heprin having thinned the blood wso when the wound open....damn.
Ms Williams’ talent is otherworldly but she is just so doggedly real. Makes me feel like her joy is every black girl’s joy. And I love that she’s increasingly using her platform to share her truths and uplift us, long may her reign last.
It came out of sheer rageahol and frustration. Being told by other female coworkers (after being attacked and harassed by other coworkers) that I should be flattered that XYZ even LOOKED at me makes you feel a certain *way*. I’ve tried and tried and tried to reconcile their views with their lifestyle but these women…
I’m sure there are a lot of cultural and historical forces that have come to bear where French women feel “mostly” liberated and that feminism is a joke. While there are people who will sleep with your spouse and give no fucks in every culture, the French have taken sex positivity to mean everything goes (raping girls…
Woman nominated 4 times for an Oscar = $1000
Translation: “I was an attractive, wealthy woman who made the patriarchy work for me, and I don’t like seeing that status quo challenged.”
Yep. In the same way the “Black Lives Matter” has been deliberately misconstrued to “why do you think white lives don’t matter”?
Nope American women don’t get it at all. In high school I had the most beautiful French teacher like when I learned she was in her mid 40s I was like no way! She always won Best Dressed in the teacher superlatives for yearbook. When she was younger and moved to France for a while she married a French man. She talked…
white bitch please
I’m of French descent, with many French exes, an an estranged French husband, and can confidently say this is largely cultural. “Seduction” is the norm, and any cry against it should be silenced. I’ve been told multiple times that if I allow myself to become cold to these kinds of advances, I will end up bitter and…
I’m not a “poor little thing” because I don’t want to be harassed. I’m not objecting to it because I’m not strong enough to endure it, I’m objecting to it because it’s bullshit that I shouldn’t have to be subjected to.
“Rape is a crime, but trying to seduce someone, even persistently or cack-handedly is not, nor is men being gentlemanly a macho attack,”
Bingo. “Oh, I wasn’t raped at 14. I wanted him. Eventually. When I stopped crying.”
There are always Serena Joys willing to throw other women under the bus for their place in the patriarchy. Nothing’s changed. Cool girls abound.
That’s what sexually aggressive men needed: Women defending them.
What’s more romantic than watching your boss jerk off into a plant??? American women JUST DON’T GET IT!
