I can't decide if I want to be the femme fatale, sexy underling, action girlfriend or trophy. Is there a way for me to be all those things? What if I'm the girlfriend to the Villian . . . and then once I help him succeed I take him out and rule the world myself with my fighting skills and sexy ways?

@SwatLax: I got Hermione to bossy girl or sweet nerd.

@sarasasa: Ha. I was looking for sassy friend of color (black and/or latina).

@taureanblack: Are you implying that a regional dialect can be wrong?

One could argue that yes, he did get singled out for being white. The reasoning being because rap/hip-hop as a (black) genre (in all of its various forms) gets the blanket label of being misogynistic and homophobic. You even get people who think they're giving hip hop some benefit of the doubt when they say "some" of…

@Not-Shattered: Shit, I say orange as one syllable. It's ornj. Get over it.

@Not-Shattered: Don't remove your snark when it's warranted.

@tehcatsmeow: No, he didn't grow up in Detroit, but I agree it has nothing to do with misogyny or homophobia. She seems to be trying to point out that he's stupid. I assure her, thinking orange is one syllable doesn't prove that.

@ZioZio: Yes, this is true, but since the freebies only kicked in a few decades ago I'm (we're) holding out for more.

@ToUnfoldThem: How could I forget that? I think we should bump up our asking price to 120 acres, 2 mules, and 5 Andalusian stallions.

@theladyvanishes: Not gonna lie when I was little I thought that they should give whatever products were made from the slave labor to the descendants for free. My family was from the region that picked cotton so I was beyond ready for free jeans, t-shirts . . . q-tips . . . pretty much anything cotton made. Ah,…

As the Empress of the Universal Colored People Council I must say that we have decided that we want more than welfare and free medicine. After 300-400 years of racial subjugation we feel this paltry sum of 40-50 years of "equality" and free stuff isn't going to cut it. We shake our (black power) fists at you. Do…

@theladyvanishes: That was the best part. I'm about to go to the grocery store with this new information. Fuck my budget. I'm going and grabbing everything I want off the shelf and walking out.

@muzzyelgrande: This was my first thought when I saw the headline.

Teyana Taylor did this song a long time ago . . . . I think that should suffice as my snappy comment.

@foodandshoes: Yes, I am, but I definitely do not chemically straighten my hair or spend any time outside. (Couldn't pay me to do either) I should say my hair isn't the "blue black" that it used to be, but my hair is really dark (someone once asked if I've dyed it) when it's healthy and has gotten to be an…

@Dialogue_Dub: This is very true. My best friend in high school/college was also b/w biracial with very light brown hair that turned blond in the summer. She was noticeably a dirty blonde by our freshman year of college (as curly haired POC away at school we did each other's hair so I know she wasn't dying it) and yet…

@perdue: My hair used to be "blue black" as a kid. I miss it. I feel like my black hair has gotten lighter and it's bugging the shit out of me. Is it really not a natural hair color?

@foodandshoes: How did you know it didn't? I would have liked to see this conversation.

@ihazakitty and it's all mine: Well, if you think about how the majority of the world's population are POC who largely, if not exclusively, have dark hair the small percentage of blond hair seems about right.
