Whoa, I have to take all this in.
I have spent waaay too much time reading on predom balck blogs horrible things about WW and how BM really think about us, of course this was written by certain Black Women's perspectives, but nonetheless, it was a cold slap. I kept thinking, have I been delusional all these years - do Black men REALLY think this way about us...is this how my ex hubby felt, my ex boyfriends, their sisters and momma's, etc?? :-(
Are we just "easier to control, put up with more shit, sexual hoes, the stop after failed relationships with BW, etc"
This was coupled with the realization, which I wasn't aware of having not grown up here, is that a lot of BW don't like WW. I started to change. Before, I would stick up for sistas, had their backs, but then I stopped and just stayed silent. Why have their backs, when they didn't have mine.
Then I find this site and read posts like these from BM. Strong, amazing minded BM. It's really heartening. I appreciate soo much that you acknowledge your attraction - aren't embarrassed or ashamed to tell the world, even in the face of hostility from many people. I think I fell in love with all of you! :smt058
