Today I learned I am not a Basic Bitch. But I dunno what kind of Bitch I actually am. More research must be done.

Her explanation on the everyday racism you encounter in everyday life being a POC (in her case her black woman) is perfect. Also white people's sensitivity when their race is brought up is so true, they're so used to being seen and portrayed without the context of their race it makes them very uncomfortable.

I love Beyonce, I really do. I don't really know if she is a feminist or not...that's for her to decide (and then for people to judge I suppose, who enjoy that sort of thing). What I love about her is that she is a very smart business-person and she has built up a huge career and that is not something to sneeze at.…

Having a gap was DEFINITELY something embarrassing when I was growing up. People made fun of those girls something awful. Now...let's sit back and wait for all the non-Black people correct you on how Black women/think/feel/should think/should feel while telling you that you can't speak for Black women.

She calls herself a feminist. I agree she's overhyped and I'm not a particularly huge fan of her music, but it is pretty cool that she's out there showing you can be straight, conventionally attractive, married, a mother ... and feminist. Too often celebs defer to the dumb "oh, no, I'm not a feminist, I like men"…

Whatever about the thigh gap, can we talk about how Beyonce seems to be ageing in reverse? It is now starting to freak me out a little, honestly. Is she stealing child souls?

And the wrongest. Generation 1 = 20, Generation 2 = 400, Generation 3 = 8000

I dono, Snacktastic above can definitely tell you better than I, but I think that given how a lot of the older girls are in school to become midwives. They are in distance learning college programs, they are able to work... I think that its sort of... ok. I mean, younger sisters getting engaged before older sisters…

since when do you get to endorse the reproductive choices of others?

The Duggars actually are self-supporting, and were even before the TLC money infusion. Apparently they do some debt-free living christian program. (I wasn't paying enough attention to remember the details.) I think he owned/owns a used car lot, something like that.

I just wish we could finally get over the hair thing. If you wanna be natural I love it. If you want to straighten it, more power to you. If you want to wear a weave to your knees, you go girl! However a black woman wants to wear her hair it's her damn choice and business.

So, if a Black woman isn't all-natural all the time their a race traitor to you? This is so ignorant honestly.

One look a Octomom shows what happens when the money dries up. It's a long shot, but I'd love to see a show called "Couples Waiting Until They Are Financially Capable of Having A Reasonable Amount of Children." I know that's too long of a title for today's audiences, so maybe "Family Planning FTW!"

"It's neither here nor there," but it's in the third sentence in your article. Just admit you're judging their choices and move on like an adult.

NO

Wow, that's rude. Just because they're women of color they can't make choices on how they want to wear their hair and...well...I'm having trouble figuring out why else you would claim they want to be white.

I never stated it was more or less so compared to cis-on-cis crime. Save the snark, please. I'm not your enemy.

Disappointed in the stance of this post :( Are you really going to argue that shit like this has no effect on girls even as young as 8? Have you seen the stats (and surely you must have personal anecdotes too) that tell us that the messages this kind of exploitation and objectification sends to our female youth? You…

So I'm not saying these ads should be banned, but I would be very dismayed to have my children looking at them. Not because boobs are so scandalous, but because every shitty as like this (and this one is so overt) plays a part in telling us what our roles are supposed to be. And kids are more susceptible to this than…
