Your article was sarcastic and disrespectful to people who observe the religious aspects of Christmas. And my question to you is WHY? So what if your mother had other beliefs that were not of the Christian faith, to christians, Jesus is not”some man.” You are a full grown woman who is able to choose your own spiritual…

In 2005, my parents were forced to confront my coming out and immediately arranged a marraige to a woman in Somalia. My stepmother, who spent every single day of my childhood and youth beating me, told me I could keep chasing boys as long as I gave her some kids to tend to. The imposition of silence is a way to make…

It fits a toxic white narrative that isn’t reality, that’s why.

Disagree. The Root has always been straight forward. The article speaks the truth. And sometimes that truth hurts. We gotta do better for all of us for all of us to do better.

You could make the same argument about men of all races we really all are a problem.

This is only the beginning because he is emboldening them. Be ready.

Yea it is. I dont know if its still up but there used to be an IG page dedicated to it. My gf found it and ended up showing it to me. I dug deeper and it happens.

Him paying a trans sex worker isn’t the problem. The problem is that some of these trans women are out here outing men ( if they are gay or dl) or exposing them and making it something its not because apparently that’s a thing. I’ve seen too many videos and read too many forum threads of how this happens, especially…

I’m not a doctor, but I do have herpes. Greenish discharges are not a symptom. Ushers got gonorrhea guys...

I think this is an extremely fair point and one that I’ve seen making the rounds. It’s worth addressing.

As an American Arab woman, I really don’t understand the American idea that Arabs and Indians are interchangable. They don’t look at all the same, much less have the same culture or language. Is it just that some Arabs and some Indians wear “turbans”? This “Middle Eastern or Indian” search is really some messed up…

Well, you were in fact the victim of racist bullying but not racism which is systemic. What does that have to do with this kid?

Lol...I love reality tv’s shows but its super obvious they’re staged...they are all scripted, overly produced, and follow the same format and conventions....i guess I didn’t realize some folks take that shit at face value...i mean is phaedra really that worse than everyone else on the damn show...shit they are all in…

You wrote a lot of words for a semi-scripted show that has been presented to you as “reality”. How do y’all not understand this? None of this shit is real. None of it. The conversations. The made up “drama”. The entire thing. I worked production on this show. Cohen is in on the whole thing. You make pro wrestling…

Guts and brave aren’t always the same thing. She’s for real shameless and saying “I know the man who cashes my check” is proof of that. She basically said she’ll do anything for money...nothing more shameful than that.

Or blinkered arrogance, which she definitely has.

It’s not even about having “spare” money, but just so much money that $12 000 is like toilet paper to you—that you don’t even notice it’s gone. If I had even tens of thousands of disposable income in the bank I would still be so much more selective with what I drop 12K on!

It’s not “guts” if you’re sociopathic.
