They are not against white supremacy they are against the postion they have in white supremacy.


Which goes back to this statement I made in the OP.
It would seem to me that black women have a serious problem with being okay with white cis male patriarchal hegemony(so long as they're included in it via BW/WM IR relationships)

Another thing I don't understand is black women's eagerness to discredit our complaints about propagandized emasculation of black men and attacks on our masculinity, when they themselves are the FIRST to rail on about how black women are masculinized and defeminized in the media.

So, it's okay for them to want to protect & preserve their femininity, yet it's not okay for us to do the same with our masculinity?

To them yes, yes it is.

:ohhh: now that you mention it.....
Aint lyin either. Might seem like they're best buddies on the internet, and hell, you might even catch them together offline more than a few times...but soon as shyt goes left, they aint fukking with that "sissy" :sas2:

And it makes all the sense in the world. Women can't stand other women....what makes you think they'll respect a man acting like a woman? :bryan:


I don't wanna wake up tomorrow to no crazy quotes either :hubie:

You know where I got all this info from? Women :mjgrin:

I’d just like to know when black women claimed control over the media? When we bring up how biracial actresses mainly represent black women in media, people want to claim it’s all the white man’s fault, but now that you aren’t paired as much with non-black women in the media, it’s black women’s fault?

That being said:

1. Of course, all types of black women should be represented. Like you said, we aren’t represented unless we’re on a white man’s arm. Even though I couldn’t really get into “She’s Gotta Have It”, I find it interesting how she has a female lover, too. I personally would support a show based on black female lovers, especially if it has a good plot and interesting characters.

2. I think it came out of left-field, so yes. It reinforces the white male patriarchal hegemony because white men are the ones backing these shows, advertisements, and commercials, so they’re obviously going to portray themselves as the ideal mate. Shonda Rhimes and Amma Asante are the only two black women I can think of that really push IR in film and they develop characters in interracial couplings for both genders, not just BWWM pairings. Grey’s Anatomy and A United Kingdom, to be specific.

3. No, y’all can push for black men and non-black women pairings if that’s what you want to see on your screens. I push for proper representation of black women, not IR dating.
