power to the people.

kinda makes any other women feel like shit 
so this is really stupid

i feel like this was kinda racist
like, fucking racist

^^ PLEASE get out of here with that NONSENSE. in a world where black women are seen as “less than” because they’re not up to par with the european standard of beauty, this is NOT racism. this is acknowledgement that we’re just as beautiful. there’s absolutely nothing wrong with a black man embracing black women.
so proud of myself for making this gif.
don’t like it? found it offensive? then don’t fucking re-blog it.

HEY GUYS! It’s now officially “fucking racist” to tell Black women they’re/we’re beautiful! It’s like, totally HURTFUL and stuff, even! Cause you know, being inundated with white women as the beauty norm in every magazine, ad, t.v. commercial and on the Internet is NOT a problem. Don’t forget all the men, of all races, who swear on they life that white women are the BEST and most beautiful.
Let’s just ignore all the millions of Black women (and little girls) that, for literally centuries, have been made to feel like ugly little nuisances on the face of humanity because every which way we present ourselves, we get slapped down as unattractive, mammyish, bitchy, loud, and whatever other way they can objectify and devalue us.
FUCK YOU GUYS THAT THINK IT’S RACIST TO LET OUR WOMEN HAVE A LITTLE RECOGNITION BY OUR MEN/OTHER MEN AND HELL, OUR WOMEN,TOO!

seriously?! SERIOUSLY?!i’m issuing a “FUCK. YOU. VERY. MUCH.” on behalf of myself and every other black woman who has been told in some way or another EVERY SINGLE DAY of her life that she is nowhere near as beautiful as her white counterparts.

I don’t really find it offensive any way if someone has preferences for who they are attracted to because even if it’s informed by a prejudice it’s not a conscious choice really. Okay, if you go on about it (and you’re a white dude) all the time then you are a racist dickhead. But it’s weird to demand people be equal-opportunities-employers in their personal lives.
