YES. Fassy singing "Africa" is just what this day needed.

Well, when you're trying to get to and from the gym, plus making time to go (especially if you have kid(s) and no one to watch them), the quick and easy pills can easily seem like the more convenient option.

my god all of this. If J.Crew and Banana republic were plus size, I'd be looking for a second job to afford it.

Not even gonna lie. If I was young and cute, I'd probably give it a go, too. I'm a fat black woman and the only money I could make with my looks is maybe as an extra in a Tyler Perry movie.

Came here to post this. Do women suddenly stop being interested in sex because they gave birth? Should I not exist?

God, yes. I *still* think about Parable of the Sower from time to time and it scares the crap out of me every last time I do. (I wish there was a movie but you know there won't be)

Or, as she says in the post, she's working a lot and very tired. And "I'm exhausted," "You're too drunk", and "I'm a little tender from yesterday" are damn valid excuses. The type of person who passive-aggressively makes excel charts and flings it in someone's face before they go on a business trip is probably not the…

The dirty bum, Bum, BUM BUM BUMS!

YES!! (God, I miss Leverage. *sigh* )

And pink! It has to be pink, too.

(#notallmenofcolor) Though, it probably helps if you're white...

And all the time, God is good....

I never noticed the difference in models' sizes; I'm too busy wondering why they can't seem to make the same cute clothes in the Curve line. I mean, how many damn v-neck maxi dresses and big t-shirts does one store need?!

I always have to wonder at these comments. Isn't every store except maybe Lane Bryant and Torrid for straight sizes? You mean to tell me that y'all slim ladies can't find anything to fit in the literally thousands of stores — ranging from discount to midrange to designer ? Even on the sample sale sites? Really??

So very much this. And the very second I let my guard down, the time I think "hey, maybe this is the guy who won't assault me" and he proves me wrong, it's my fault for "not knowing better".

Okay, so what's the secret to telling at $300 shirt? I'm always willing to learn how to spot/fool people trying to judge me on what I'm wearing....

pssh; if she was *really* serious she'd have had it tattooed backward.

especially when the same baby screams bloody murder when daddy leaves!

Don't' you know brown folks are *never* included in these "who's attractive" things? We are, by default, considered 'unattractive', if at all. Now hush and enjoy your sideline popcorn...

Yeah but what if you *weren't* taught how to care for your natural hair as a child and told that you had to straighten your hair? It is difficult. I sort of envy the younger girls the freedom with their hair; now that I'm older the only 'style' open to me is the twa, which my features, body, nor skull shape will…
