I do hair (just basic styling) and makeup as part of my job. Given, I am mixed, but I look very white, and my own skin tone is medium at best. My hair is curly, but not overly so- 3b/3c. They do not teach anything beyond that in school- maybe an hour touching on it, but nothing intensive. They will not tell you what…

Quality of Joker as a movie aside, I’m all for marginalizing media that has become champion for the incel crowd. They deserve nothing positive in their lives.

There was a good tweet last night, to paraphrase:

Lol @ the Academy acknowledging the MCU for anything. Black Panther got a nomination; their work is done here. 

It really really is. I tore badly enough that the extra time in the hospital was for me and not my daughter. I couldn’t sit comfortably for 6 weeks. My trips to pee took like 10-15 minutes with all the process that involved. And also involved burning pain that made me cry. Brings me right back to what was far worse…

So, while you are less likely to have vaginal tearing with a csection, it’s major abdominal surgery and they have to cut muscles and nerves. Nerves freaking hurt when they grow back. Weeks of random incredibly painful zaps. It’s been 4 years, and while you can’t see a scar on my skin, I can feel it through my skin.…

Gosh that brings back memories. I had two c-sections but I remember that underwear, topped with a binder that was supposed to support my abdominal muscles as they healed. I remember my first shower post-partum and feeling like the minute I took off the binder my intestines were going to burst through my skin and spill…

And she was excoriated for it. Which was bullshit. 

Fuck yeah! Hair Love won!

2 actors have now won Oscars for playing the same comic book character. Unreal.

I guess Keira Knightley saw that same article and got mad and wrote her piece about how tough birthing is. 

I remember picking up a magazine cover and seeing the headline, “Kate Middleton shows off flat stomach six weeks after giving birth! Says chasing her kids around is how she keeps the weight off.” Then I had to look at pictures of how glamorous she was hours into postpartum.

Or you could just accept that some women want to have children, instead of trying to be an edgelord.

I came to leave a similar comment but I think this one covers what I wanted to say better than I would have.

My husband took this “great” pic of our daughter when they were doing the APGAR tests and I’m in the background, bloody, in shock, getting stitched up. Everyone in the room and all the lights are focused on my daughter and there’s just the one person helping me (as I’m hemorrhaging and have a 2.5 degree tear) in the…

He got 2 days with mom and baby in the hospital and then had to go back to work.

This ad has me bawling. I helped take care of my sister after she gave birth when I was 25 years old... I work in the healthcare field (specifically sexual and reproductive health), and I had NO idea the level of pain, discomfort, and suffering new moms have after vaginal delivery. My sister was in so much pain and…

That’s a wonderful ad. It’s informative, tells the truth, and offers a product that can help so many.

Cool comment or whatever, but why can’t you stay on topic and figure out how to make a post yourself if you care so much about an actor who doesn’t even know you exist

What ? How did you managed to center White people in a comment section about lack of representation for black/ non-white beauty ? I could even understand if you decided to ask that question on the “Dirt Bag” article. It truly boggles the mind.
