Really. Is this what Black America is coming to?
The video above is a clip of an unfair girl fight. Some of you probably are wondering why I'm posting this. I'm posting it because I actually know one of these girls [the one in the black.] I think it's unfair that she got jumped even though she brought it on herself by driving to the other girl's neighborhood, trying to fight her & start drama. Even if they did get into a fight, I think it should have been one on one. Instead the other girl's aunt & other people jumped in and jumped her. I don't understand. I'm glad they decided to fight instead of bring guns or other weapons. It would have been a much worse situation if they did that.
This is why men mistreat us young women by calling us out of our names. This is why people stereotype black women and instead of trying to stop it, they record it. It makes no sense to me at all. One girl tried to break it up but more people wanted to see it. Smh. This is why other races look down on us. They always see videos of us fighting or degrading ourselves & we wonder why they discriminate us. We really have to get it together.

Interracial Dating and My Take On It.
Hey guys. I wanted to write a blog about interracial dating. Everyone is 'swirlin it' up now-a-days. I have no problem with it all. I think it's a beautiful thing that all ethnic backgrounds are coming together like the way the world is supposed to be. I actually like all races of men. I would date any man if I felt like he was the one for me. Just as long as he was BORN a man. If he loved me for who I was, wanted to get to know everything about me and decided he was serious, shoot, that's all I really need.
I don't want to call out anyone but I see 'brothas' or 'black dudes' dating women white which is perfectly fine. The only problem is that some of the black men dating white women don't want us black women to date a white man. If you're going to date outside your race then why can't I? I've seen it plenty times before. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE some black men but yall do this sometimes. It's like yall want to have every race of women but yall only want us to have a black man. It's 2010 though so if I want the catch jungle fever then I will take a trip to the the other side.
In my opinion, there's only one type of black man I don't like. The type who will only date outside their race because they think all black women are 'ghetto' or they are all 'hoes' who are on welfare & things like that which is totally not the case. Take the picture below as an example :
Now, was it really necessary to say all of that? No, it wasn't. He acts as if races of women are put on pedestals putting black women at the bottom on the pit. There are many successful black women who have successful black men standing by their side. Instead of seeing that, he uses the typical black female stereotype used in film, television & music videos.
Now ladies, raise your hand if you are upset that this brotha is not attracted to black women. *Crickets* [Looks to the left and sees no hands are raised. Switches her view to the right and sees no hands raised] Nobody? That's what I thought. He acts like he's is a big loss the black women of America when in all actuality no one is checking for him at the end of the day. There are plenty of black men who like black women who are successful, who are better looking, & who are less cocky & more humble than this guy thinks he is.
Men like him are AFRAID of black women. They feel like black women are too strong and powerful for them. He feels like he would be bossed around. He would rather have a submissive partner [I'm not saying all women in other races are like this.], a partner that would do anything HE wants which is kinda selfish if you ask me because a relationship is between two people. You can't be in a relationship with yourself. He wants to feel like he wears the pants in the relationship but he feels intimidated by a black woman because she is powerful & fearless. If the right man comes along for that black woman, he can tame her down a bit though. He doesn't want to do all the dirty work of trying to tame a dominant black woman, he just wants a pre-submissive woman. You get what I'm trying to say?
As black women, we are strong, beautiful, & powerful. We have to show the world that there's more to black women than 'video vixens', 'prostitutes', 'drug addicts and dealers', and 'baby mamas' because that's all they portray us as on television. We have to show them that we are lawyers, doctors, professors, philanthropists, authors, writers, entrepreneurs etc. Same thing with black men.
Just read what I'm writing & take it all in. Think about it.
Powerful Couples
Of course Obama & Michelle Were at the top of the list. They are both strong individuals. Obama is the 44th president of the U.S. Michelle is his wife but she can take many more titles than that. She is a mother but she is also very active in the community, involved in many charities and she also went to law school prior to marrying Barack. They have 2 daughters.
Seal and Heidi Klum are a beautiful couple. Seal is a songwriter who has various singles including 'Kiss From a Rose' which won 2 grammys. Heidi is known world wide as a model but she is also a televison host & producer, fashion designer, artist, business woman and singer. They have 2 sons & a daughter.
Jada and Will are a powerful couple. They each have multiple jobs they can do. Jada is an actress, author, business woman, director & singer-songwriter. Will is an actor, film producer & rapper. They know how to make money & invest it in the important places in life. They have 2 sons & a daughter.
Robin Thicke and Paula Patton make a great couple. Robin is a singer-songwriter, musician, composer, and he acts part-time. Paula Patton is an actress who has been in films such as Idlewild Blues & Precious. They had a son named Julian Fuego last month.
David Bowie and Iman are probably the oldest couple on my list but that hasn't stopped them a bit. Iman is an model, actress and entrepreneur. David Bowie is an actor, musician, record producer and arranger. He has had numerous singles on the UK charts. They have a daughter together.

He's Perfect :)
I want to hold hands & watch the sunset with him.
I want to walk on the beach with him.
When I hear his voice, I want to feel butterflies.
And if I hit him, I would want for him to restrain & hold me in his arms tightly, instead of fighting back.
When he kisses me, I'd wanna feel like I have to catch my breath.
When I see him, I wanna be nervous but excited.
If we got into an argument, I'd want him to stay & try to talk it out instead of walking away from the situation.
When I'm crying, I'd want his shoulder to lean on.
I'd want my family to like him & for him to like my family & vice versa.
I'd want to be his backbone/support & for him to be mine.
And when it comes to sex, I'd want him to understand my decision to wait, but when it's the right moment & it finally happens, I want it to be special & explosive. I'd want to be something to remember everytime.
My imagination lets me wonder will I ever find a dude like this and I know I will because I deserve it! Someone whose tough on the exterior, but someone who isn't afraid to show how they feel. A real man! I would do the same for him because I'm a real woman & I'm too old to play games. I want a long-lasting relationship. Something I can tell my grandkids about. Something that I will remember forever.

" What are some words that describe me? I am ambititous. I am determined. I am persistant. I am not the stereotype. I am unique. I am the conductor of my destiny. Most of all, I am me. An individual."
That was a quote I came up with a little while ago. It represents me perfectly. I don't like to be like anyone else. It is true that I like celebrity's style [ie. Rihanna, Teyana Taylor, Kelis & many others.] but I like to do my own thing. It is also true that I admire many artist's music [Such as Pharrell, Timberland etc.] but I like to make my own music. All I want to be is an individual.
I look at the people out now who like to steal others' identity & I don't think it's cool. It's ok to be unique & do your own thing. A lot of people are trying to emulate Lady Gaga's style [ie. Nicki Minaj & Khia (In her latest video)] when Lady Gaga didn't even make up that style herself. A lot of guys are trying to wear skinny jeans like the New Boyz when The Cool Kids had that style first. [Personally, I like The Cool Kids a heckuva lot better]. I've even seen people try to steal what I do [like wearing things how I wear it.] One of the things about my style is I don't match but I coordinate my colors. People have been trying to copy that for years. Smh. I guess people just like to be imitations. I will tell you one thing though. When it comes to style & music, I WILL be a LEADER, never a FOLLOWER!
