Meaning dolls, Disney movies, magazines, etc. When I was little, I remember I wanted to dress up as a princess for Halloween, but I changed my mind when I realized my skin tone didn't match any of the princess costumes. I also remember my dad explaining the lack of representation in the shows...

Massages are really beneficial. I love getting them but I rarely have a chance to go. I think it's something everyone should have in their routine but it's not always possible for a lot of people. Sleep is also a good one, extra sleep can do wonders!

I love to travel so I would go anywhere really! My top places are France, Italy, Australia, and Japan. Hopefully all of this pandemic stuff goes away soon and traveling will be more of a possibility.

I just saw an article about Camille directing the 2022 production of For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When The Rainbow is Enuf. I think it's great seeing black men and women making a splash in a white dominated area like Broadway. I know a lot of people who aspired to be on...

Agree with all of this. I think Texas is an example of what they'd like the rest of the country to be. The fact is laws like this have nothing to do with caring about life and everything to do with creating control.

I'm really open dating any race as long as we get along and have the same morals and goals. I've dated white guys who were very sympathetic to black struggles and I've dated black guys where race didn't help at all and we just didn't get along.

I've pretty much never been to church lol I feel like some of my views don't really align with anyone in church so I would rather just do my own thing.

Too much hahaha Exactly! and yes it is. Yup! Like he just awarded you with the compliment of the year because he deems you attractive.

It's been awhile since I've really spent some time with any of them - Our schedules just never seem to line up anymore.

I absolutely hate when white guys say "you're pretty for a black girl". It's such a backhanded insult and they truly think they're saying it as a compliment. I think it's statements like this that can cause young black girls to feel like they aren't beautiful because of their skin tone. I know...

I don't think it's a bad idea if it's something you choose to do. I was just reading a story about a girls dad who was murdered due to police brutality and they tried everything they could to cover it up for 10 years until she got justice. If there was more body cam evidence it may have gone...

Yeah I agree. Growing up with a dad that is an example of how a father should be in the household is really fundamental for learning your role in the family. My mom is also really strong too so I feel like there was a good example of balance between the relationship dynamics.

I've been debating getting on YouTube for awhile. I even started one a couple times but never stuck with it. I know it's a lot of hard work to constantly create content so you're posting on a set schedule though. I think you can still make good money with it, you just have to grind it out in the...

I used to volunteer at the local VA hospital near me. I also used to help with a program that provided sports equipment and lessons to urban children in the area. I stopped doing all of that when the pandemic hit but I'm hoping they'll allow volunteers again soon.

It doesn't have to be anything cosmetic but just something that you take time out of your weekly schedule to do for yourself. I wouldn't say I have anything consistent that I do but I do like to take some time and go for a quiet walk every now and then. I also like to do an at home spa night...

I do a mix of both curly and straight hair. My hair is really easy to style so I kind of just do what I feel like for the occasion. I really just think you should wear your hair however you want and in whatever way makes you feel confident.

I think that's getting better and better. I know some of the stricter places are allowing their employees to be a little more free with how they present themselves. I think visible tattoos will always need to be SFW but I think eventually they won't be seen as unprofessional.

This year I've been really off with my routines - Not only did we have the shutdown last year but we also had a lot of family problems this year. I haven't been able to stick to a solid diet all year. But I do try to get moving and do some cardio everyday and I stick to calorie counting but I...

Agreed. Other than late term, the decision should be up to the woman because it's her body and her choice.

Yeah I agree that at a certain point it's too much. I do like to keep my nails done though. Not only do I like it but I also think it can make you look more professional or "put together", if that makes sense.
