The Optics Of This Rihanna Vogue Cover

[MrLogic]

She the head of the house

 

[IIVI]

Typical glam industries bs agendas. Anything non-gay/religious/non-white takes a backseat.

You can have the talent of a potato, but if you're all three of those things you'll always have priority.

ASAP look like he about to hit her ass with the

drake is retarded for fumbling rihanna

if my wife is a billionaire who looks like Rihanna idgaf

Looks fade. And as the Kanye debacle showed, these celebrities "billions" can disappear overnight.

 

[Rasille]

The optics look crazy but that’s what it is when you’re dealing with publications ran by the dominant society.

 

[FluffyEyes]

Couldn’t have them side by side with the baby huh?

Now why would she do that?? Why would she lie about the power dynamic?? She's the bigger celeb, she's the main breadwinner and this cover highlights that.

 

[FluffyEyes]

Alot of women worship Beyonce but you’ll probably never see her leading the Camel unless she’s running from him

And women give her shyt for it to this day. She's called pick me for the love songs she sang and for working on and staying in her marriage. Oh and for not having a "hoe phase".

A lot of women think they want to replicate this dynamic that Rihanna has with ASAP but they actually don't. That's why they're still looking for men who make more than they do while fawning over this cover.

 

[REdefinition]

You don't have to minimize/emasculate the man to celebrate the woman.

 

[jwinfield]

Cats upset that Vogue, a magazine for women, made a woman, who is the subject of the cover story, the centerpiece of the cover

 

[The Fade]

Yikes

 

[Black Magisterialness]

Some of our brehs turning into the very scorned women that keeps them up at night lol

Facts. Sitting around talking about how "media" and "hollywood" has the massive conspiracy. And yet, they keep giving it energy. Notice how the moment we stopped talking about Kanye, the nikka went away. This shyt ain't hard.

Gender roles in relationships bruh

20 years

Gender roles outside of physical differences are a construct. Not a biological truth. In fact, men who play their role correctly become caregivers as well. When women are pregnant, sick or otherwise incapacitated. Who's making sure the kids are fed, cleaned and educated? Men. The problem is that society conditions men to think that women are supposed to STILL do those things even while lugging around fetuses and unable to bend over. It's a mad ting.

Chores are not gendered. Balancing budgets are not gendered. Raising your children is not gendered. This are SKILLS. And whoever is the best at it in the relationship...that's what the fukk they should be doing. Rihanna is better at making money than Rocky. Why the fukk should she play the background?

Now nothing is WRONG with that at all. Ultimately, who gives af how they relationship works if it works for them. The funny thing to me is how her single female followers will probably receive it.

Alot of women worship Beyonce but you’ll probably never see her leading the Camel unless she’s running from him

So we ain't seen Jay basically play the "supportive" husband role for the past decade. B has had WAY more spotlight than Jay over the past few years. Do you think that fukking matters to him? No.
The only people who care about these kinds of optics are insecure ass dudes.

Why didn’t we have a female president then?

I'm not sure you know how to read. That is PRECIECLY why we didn't have a female president.
