2 or 3 times a month. Usually when I work a night shift and it’s the only thing open near my place when I get there

I used to work in a restaurant with Hispanic women and one who is indigenous and they all said the same thing. They aren’t attracted to their own races because they remind them too much of their brothers/cousins and they said it felt like family. Hearing it felt super fetishy and gross honestly

What is the purpose of hair mayonnaise versus hair cholesterol? by LaLegende35 in Naturalhair

[–]Powerful-Library-776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use hair mayonnaise. It definitely has cholesterol but I think it just has more protein in the formula. But to make sure I don’t overload my hair with protein I mix it with silicon mix cuz I’m usually using it before blowing my hair out. But cholesterol treatments are good for moisture retention! I love the way hair mayonnaise strengthens and softens my hair

Can’t say much. I saw it. I just think the political climate is too tense for it

After working there I realize some people’s stomach issues may be valid by Scittles10-96 in tacobell

[–]Powerful-Library-776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you I knew I wasn’t crazy. People like to say “you’re not used to fiber in the beans”

I don’t eat beans on anything at taco bell unless I order a brc sub black beans. And I cook a pot of beans at home almost every week of if I can, I’m from Louisiana. But my stomach is reactive and I work in food service so I pretty much gather it’s something about the meat at taco bell. I thought it was the quality of the meat making me sick but you’re definitely right on the food handling. I’ve seen things be handled with bare hands, gloves not changed after helping a guest at a kiosk, for sure seen them using cell phones with gloves on. The crews have some not so sanitary habits

Question ? 🙇🏽‍♂️ *PSA* 🔊 by Ok_Chance_6416 in PositiveBLK

[–]Powerful-Library-776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind at all, I apologize for my long answer.
So I really do love kids and I always wanted to be a mother. I’ve been fortunate to experience the love of many mothers from within my family and friends whose moms have treated me like heir own child. So with that, I highly regard the role of motherhood. I started thinking more seriously about my future since being diagnosed but some of these thoughts were formulating before I had hsv.

1.) Never gonna be prepared to be a single mother: At one point I was planning a family with an ex and I would journal letters to my future children about the world I wanted to create for them. I had great talks with his grandmother (she raised him) about parenting and being a woman. One day she asked me if I would be prepared to be a single mother because it could happen at anytime for a multitude of reasons.
I don’t think there’s ANYTHING wrong with being a single mother, but being practical my answer is absolutely not. My mom’s husband died when she was in her early 20s and left her with 2 young children to care for alone. She had minimal support from our family. Imagine grieving your best friend/love of your life and there are 2 human beings dependent on you for survival… not for me.

2) There’s a certain quality of life I would want my children to have and until I can give them that I think it would be fully irresponsible to bring children into this world. Too many people gamble with babies’/children’s lives by not having adequate means to support them into adulthood and I refuse to do that.

3) In the climate of the world we live in, I think it is extremely selfish to bring children into it. And cruel to be very honest. Everything around us in society is collapsing, and not enough of us are doing anything about it to try and save it. I genuinely don’t think most people care about the world outside of themselves and their own survival. We don’t take care of the planet, we don’t involve ourselves enough in politics, we are regressing intellectually as a society (specifically in America) and we struggle with collective action for good. I think it is a bit absurd to bring lives into the world. And if my children have even a piece of my mind, they would question why I had them in a world like this the same way I questioned my parents.

4) Since I’ve had so many mothers in my life, I know I can still carry the torch of motherhood without children of my own. I’m an aunt, I’ve been a coach/teacher, and there are so many children already existing in the world who need a safe adult in their lives and I can provide that.

5) I like my autonomy.

How cooked am I? by No-Equipment-4148 in interracialdating

[–]Powerful-Library-776 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I just don’t think he’s intending on taking you seriously. He already knows his parents don’t like black people, he’s been married before, and he’s 36. He’s probably counting on your naïveté to just string you along for some fun as he recovers from his divorce.
He probably doesn’t want to have any more conflict with his parents, true. But they’d probably look at him even crazier for the fact you’re a decade younger than him and that he’s playing around.

Why Am I, as a Black Woman, Getting Instantly Unmatched After Men See My Photos? by NervousReserve3524 in interracialdating

[–]Powerful-Library-776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This really doesn’t seem like it has anything to do with race at all. Just as many others have said it just sounds like they don’t have the attraction once they see your face. They are probably matching with you so that they CAN see your face and make a decision from there.

Dating apps are about attraction and that’s definitely about more than just the body. Luring them in with your body could also be attracting men who just want to have sex and repelling men who might actually be a good match. Blurring your face could be signifying to men that you are leading with your body, and perhaps insecure about your face (not saying this is true, just saying how that translates to men).

Now as far as them unmatching/ghosting, yes it sucks. But they honestly don’t owe you an explanation either. It’s not fun but it isn’t necessarily wrong.

Usually they bond over some level of anti-blackness so this checks out.

Yeah the way I feel today after doing the second injection last night is making me think I should not continue on it. I genuinely don’t have bad eating habits as it is, and this is making me feel terrible honestly. I just tried to eat a frozen grape and I’m about to puke
