To this day, I tend to add "and whatnot" to the end of my sentences. It's not even on purpose. It's just become a habit.

Same here! My parents never let me have boys in my bedroom when I was coming up. They never got past the kitchen, in fact. One of my boyfriends came over once when my parents weren't home, and I was like, "Are you crazy!? Take your ass on the porch!"
Oh, and here's one more for you - just because I'm feeling magnamaous.
Terrible idea. Terrible. I've been training in combat sports for over a decade, and nothing good can come of this. Let's get more women training in the sport instead.
Works for me! Because it's not like I didn't JUST GIVE YOU TWO PLACES TO START. Or that you can't Google many, MANY blogs discussing race issues with Coven this reason, right? Coven. Nope, you just wanted me to do the work for you.
IMDb? Television Without Pity? That's just for starters! You want blogs, find them your own fucking self.
Is that anything like Dog being "indefinitely" suspended for his racism? I give it six months.
Chiiile, you didn't know? Marie is an hateful racist because she has no desire to hold hands with white women and lead then down the path of racial enlightenment. She was sooooo mean because she didn't give Cordelia the baby she wanted. Oh, and she said "cracker". Not to mention that Queenie "betrayed" Delphine,…
The Grammys lost me FOREVER for not nominating Janelle. Electric Lady is still on weekly rotation on my iPod. I'm sick of people acting like Tamar's career isn't bought and paid for. I'm embarrassed to admit I even listened to Love and War. (Ironically, I feel the same way about Beyonce's new album.) Let's not even…
Oh and that xoJane article? Is this stupidest shit I've ever read in my LIFE. I thought that Global Grind article was bad (it's the one that made me say "fuck this; I'm out"), but that one? I would gleefully mock the shit out of this woman if I didn't feel so sorry for her.
Re: The K-Mar beef: that's another example of respectability politics at play. Tamar is married with a child, so even though Tamar started this (even her own fans admit that) and even though Tamar kept it going after K. repeatedly asked to be left alone, Tamar gets the benefit of the doubt. It's why Tamar gets Essence…
Do you really think we can describe black feminists so universally?
I wish black feminists would just be honest and admit that respectability politics is the reason why Beyonce is getting a pass. They gleefully shit all over singers like K. Michelle because she sang a silly little tune about her broke hot pocket simply because she has a son & no husband. Let's not get started on how…
Absolutely not. "Bottom bitch feminism" is too kind, really. "Basic bitch feminism" is so much more accurate.
This album didn't register with me because I'm old enough to remember the last time a young, beautiful megastar embraced her sexuality & made an album about it - one that is widely considered one of the best ever made.
If you are an incessantly single professional black woman who is living out the realities of those statistics that are merely news fodder for everyone else, it is hard (if you’re straight and/or into masculine-identified folks) not to watch Beyoncé embracing her hubby around the neck on the video for “Drunk in Love,”…
Oh, my damn...Luke Pasqaulino, just in time for #WhiteBooWednesday. How you doooooin'? *coy wave*
This idea that Beyonce is a representation of black feminism...well, if THIS is the representation of black feminism, heaven help us all.
