Dance Your Way to Your Bikini Body: Hard As Heck, But Your Arse Will Thank You.

It’s March, and we’re just months away from bikini season, and quite frankly, I’m getting a bit flabby in the parts that will be showing by summer. I don’t like to skip my exercises when I’m traveling so I’ve been taking a three-series exercise DVD with me that has 1) kicked my ass 2)been so intense I can not finish the workout.

92 “Clutch” Gets it Right…White Feminists Dropped the Ball On the Quvenzhané Wallis Debacle

“Clutch” Gets it Right…White Feminists Dropped the Ball On the Quvenzhané Wallis Debacle

We’ve been battling this issue for months. Many of us (including myself) believe that most white feminists don’t give a crap about black women and girls, but talk a good game because they know and understand the power of building alliances in order to further your agenda. Black women have lapped up this pablum for decades and in many ways, we are worse off. People thought I was being unreasonable about my stance on feminists, but here’s a real-life example, and I for one am glad Clutch was brave enough to run this story.

A Self-Proclaimed ‘DBR’ Black Woman Reaches Out To Us. It’s a Bird’s Eye View Into How Some of Us Are the Way We Are.

“Admitting this openly is something that I wouldn’t normally do, but I guess I felt it had to be said openly to someone in the hopes of preventing or reducing the number of functional DBR women produced in the black community. Even though I’m only sharing my story, I’m sure there are many more instances of black women who share the same background as me.”

110 New Study Suggests Pretty Women Have Less Casual Sex Than Less Attractive Women. Why?

New Study Suggests Pretty Women Have Less Casual Sex Than Less Attractive Women. Why?

Welp, here’s some new study that seems to inherently make a whole lot of sense.

Sociologist Elizabeth McClintock of the University of Norte Dame released a study basically suggesting that more attractive women have less casual sex than “unattractive” women, because the less-pretty will often negotiate sex as a compromise. Her study included both men and women, but for this post I’m going to just concentrate on the women. Here’s the highlights:
