You know I've noticed that when it comes to black women, if a black man treats his woman like a queen it seen as odd or at times he can even become the butt of a joke. What is wrong with pampering a black woman? Are we only necessary for sex and not a committed relationship?! It's absolutely appalling how black women…

I had to just laugh recently when i saw and replied to a post in the comments where the OP was so befuddled and sort of disgusted by the thought of someone having a full-size bed past the age of like...8. Just one very small example, but I think you're not way off base.

I forgot to add- there was an article about a woman that lives in a poor neighborhood. I think (I don't remember) someone almost hit her and her children as they were crossing the street. One commenter said the woman should get a car. Obviously, the person was speaking out of privilege. A lot of commenters had to…

So, I'm moving 2,000 miles away in two weeks, exactly. Leaving Michigan, snow, my abusive ex, my old job, and going to Portland (OR) to my job, partner-spouse, and new life. I'm 100% freaked out, my 8 year old is 10% into the plan, and I'm bleeding money like there's no tomorrow.

I've always wanted to ask this, but I was too afraid. I'm going to take a chance and ask anyway. Here goes: Is Jezebel's target demographic privileged white women? Many things make me think that. I'm just curious is all.

We need more men to speak out and say that masculinity doesn't mean being misogynistic, ignorant, violent, and insensitive. You can be an involved father, you can have feelings, you can treat women as equals and with respect, and still be a man- in fact, you're more of a man, because you're acting like a grown adult…

Hey, calm down. I'm a very tall woman, and it takes a lot of maturity and life experience to get over societies expectations of what male/female couples should look like. There is a LOT of judgment directed at tall girl/short guy couples, especially by teenagers. When I was a teen I never would have dreamed of dating…

Is Coachella like Davos for rich kids? When the first Coachella happened, I was friends with a clique of rich kids (early 20s) in LA who were all going. I was blown away by the lineup, but also the ticket prices, which was like a week's pay for me at the time (never mind the cost of lodging, transportation, missed…

hi friend...i'm so proud and honored to see a black man in this world doing what many black men in my community isn't doing (ur wife is a very blessed woman to have you in her life!). my husband is the exact same we have 5 children together, and now i'm a single mother because some medical complications took him from…

It isn't just women being shallow in their (nearly universal) preference for taller males, males overwhelmingly prefer to be with a female shorter than themselves.

What's truly fascinating is that I read posts like HermioneStranger's and BlackIvyG's, and those discussions are almost the EXACT SAME, POINT FOR POINT, as the ones that go on in the Asian American community, except that the genders are reversed. In a world where Whites are the ideal, and Blacks are seen as…

Are you a tall woman? Because it's a lot easier to think women who are looking for tall men are shallow when everyone is taller than you.

I've always felt like the worst girl in the world because I pull my damn hair up all the time. I always see these chicks and think how pretty they look with their hair all down in 100+ degree heat, makeup perfect, wearing high heels everywhere...and then I look at my sweaty, makeup running down my face, can't wear…

I really hate how some people are fawning all of this, acting like it's a major accomplishment that some man is helping his daughters get ready. You know what? It's not. A man is taking care of his children. That doesn't deserve a gold medal; that's called doing what you're supposed to do because you're an adult.

I'm sorry but they took a funktastic song and turned into a dirge.

Maybe it's a media issue. That these pictures or narratives aren't prominent in media and therefore seem like they rarely exist in life.

Except if it were a picture of his wife, no one would ever care.

I so miss my little guy's baby-carrier phase. He used to love being carried, and I loved having him against my chest (and my hands free). Now he's a very rambunctious toddler and those days are OVER.

Ehh, I've known white dads who have faced similar attitudes from dirtbags. They obviously don't get called Uncle Tom, but the same sense of "fuck you for raising your kids" (and people who marry/have children outside of their race tend to get shit regardless, though again, not always to this horrible extent.)

Nawl. White men get crapped on for this sort of thing too. I think all Dads get crapped on for this. It's only a small fraction of men/women who give them crap for this.
