Growing a Sexually Aware Young Person

Oneika: “How Travel Opened Me Up to the Rainbeau”
The beauty of seeing the world is that, as a consequence, I continually have contact with people who are diametrically opposed to myself; people whose race, colour, and creed make them different to me in every way possible. These foreign environments lead me to interact with people, male and female, that I ordinarily would not have come to know had I stayed in my bubble back in my hometown. I roll in different social circles when I’m abroad, circles that cut across race, class, and economic status lines.

BB&W Crew Member, Harleyq2 Drops Knowledge! “Throwing Out the Black Card”
American black culture is one of great perseverance since the time of slavery. The men and women of that era fought for something better and found ways not to settle
for the imposed societal status quo. Today, their gumshoe has allowed many to have an advanced education and extended opportunities in the US. Unfortunately, for the current black American culture, they have done a 180 degree and imposed restrictions on what it means to be black.

Why Be Jealous?
    Finn Nightley http://finnspen.wordpress.com I really do not understand the concept of jealousy. Though I admit, I have felt it from time to time. I don’t understand why people let it fester and become an issue in their lives, more so, why they feel the need to poison others’ lives with their jealousy. I [...]
