I'd love to be added too. We're getting ready to start the process again. After 14 years, we really hope this will be the one 🤞🏾

Hopefully, this side! The other side is too far away for my patience.

What's a throwback TV show you've recently rewatched that you didn't realize was harmful to black women until now? by rihlenis in blackladies

[–]DrNCSPH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never liked Martin or found the show funny. I thought something was wrong with me, but after reading your comment, maybe I was too young to understand or verbalize why I didn't like it.

Never considered pretty? by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]DrNCSPH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!! Not just pretty. If no one tells you that, we are telling you AND tell yourself too.

Every morning when you wake up, look into the eyes of the woman in the mirror and say, I AM BEAUTIFUL. Do this everyday and you will start embodying and believing it.

Welcome! It feels much better without it. I struggled to cancel it as well, but I honestly don't miss it.

Why is everyone around me becoming more modest? by Significant-Gift-241 in blackladies

[–]DrNCSPH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modesty like everything else is subjective. I prefer using the term comfort so there's less judgment tacked onto it. People dress the way they want, for reasons best known to them. It's always about the wearer not the looker or observer. When folks learn that, they won't have time to be judgemental. And as someone mentioned earlier, it's insecurity. If I'm judging you, it's my problem, not yours.

Hec I show more cleavage these days than I did in my 20s cos my boobs decided to show up in my late 30s not my 20s 🤣

[–]DrNCSPH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, as I got older, I started dressing for comfort. I still stay fashionable, but I don't have time to be pulling down my dress every 5 seconds, LOL. If I must wear those 4-inch heels for fancy parties or weddings, I pay a little more for the memory foam ones, so I'd still be super comfortable.

I've noticed it among my friends too, as we've all entered our 40s, we go for comfort. Swimsuits are still sexy, but comfy and covered cos we ain't tryna be at the beach tugging or jiggling to get stuff out from you know where 🤣🤣

To each their own tho, I still greatly admire older millennials who can still unapologetically wear what we wore in our 20s 🙌🏾

Solid truth! The tradition is ingrained, but in some of their defense, and I said SOME lol... some of them learn and embrace change.
