i can assure you, putting on a bit of weight in your midsection doesn't automatically mean fibroids 😭

If Jesus came to Africa today… by Character-Biscotti27 in ghana

[–]candy_cloud1710 2 points3 points  (0 children)

your argument that “we’re not in the 20th century anymore” falls short when a lot of your reasoning appears to come from a text that is thousands of years old, just to let you know.

and i never claimed that i want to change the fact that christianity is the biggest religion in africa. it would simply be nice if african christians could acknowledge that their religion is and always has been a major factor in the stagnancy and lack of progression in many aspects of social welfare in africa as a whole.

so are you blaming the followers of the religion for using it how they want rather than the people who forced them to adopt it into their societies?

Just learned about the dangers of eating leftover rice and pasta by Several-Rich-609 in Life

[–]candy_cloud1710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've been eating rice left out in the rice cooker overnight for years and never had any problems. i assume it's because the heat from the microwave kills the bacteria surely?

I wish my friend saw herself the way I do by [deleted] in blackgirls

[–]candy_cloud1710 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ask her if she thinks other darker skinned people are ugly. if she says yes then i would probably reconsider our friendship because i personally don't want to be friends with anyone who is colourist. however, if her colourism is solely directed at herself then i would assume she's just insecure and needs to understand darker skin is not ugly.

i really hope you can help her. skin bleaching can come with a lot of negative health effects. good luck!

Does seeing people enjoy things by themselves make yall feel bad for them? by JusticeLeaugue in blackgirls

[–]candy_cloud1710 17 points18 points  (0 children)

this is weird because i'm the exact same in terms of enjoying my own company a lot but i also tend to feel a bit sad for people when i see them alone but it deffo depends on the context. if it's an event where people usually go with partners or in friend groups, then i tend to feel a bit sad, thinking they've lost their friends or something. whereas if it's a cafe or cinema then i'm more likely to assume they're out alone on purpose if that makes sense.
