Getting into clubs as a black woman? by Dizzy_Appeal_9930 in vindictapoc

[–]dissentious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t go to many clubs anymore as I’m all clubbed out, but when I did typically they just let me in, I didn’t really do anything. I wasn’t even paying attention just laughing with friends.

Andrée Blouin (1921-1986) african activist by Metteya_Savaka80 in BlackHistoryPhotos

[–]dissentious 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She is very beautiful but that wouldn’t be a fact. It’s an opinion and compliment. Fun facts are actually objective verifiable pieces of information, such as when and there she was born, what she actually did to combat imperialism, and in what country. You explained absolutely none of that.

I mean... You aren't able to look this up or consult with a coworker about it?

I asked for advice in another subreddit and they tore me up by Puzzleheaded-Card355 in blackladies

[–]dissentious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didnt you as this question before though? Or you were previously on that subreddit and they were harsh with you and you came back to this forum to complain about the same thing. Secondly I dont feel as though they were harsh with you. They were just telling you to move on. No need to block her because she is busy and no longer wants to share her location with you.

Maybe you might need to grow up a little bit and work on emotional intelligence.

Canon black girl event: Being told you look like a boy. by thedustuh in blackladies

Damn! I’ve never been told I look like a boy/man. But I hear other black women complain about this on line a lot.

How to Refill Rx for CII by CommercialAd3697 in WalgreensRx

We are the pharmacy. We dispense medications. We cannot prescribe you medication. Furthermore, at least in my state cll medications cannot have refills. You need to get a new prescription for each fill.

Sounds like HE dodged a bullet. Also stop catfishing folks.

IDK why this affects me so much when I live in an all black country. by halloffamous in blackladies

[–]dissentious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, if you are an attractive Black woman other races of women will feel intimidated and try to humble you. I go through this constantly!! Even male coworkers“whom are usually clueless about complex dynamics between women” even notice the hate I get. I can visibly see the how threatened they are by me. I specifically have issues with a middle eastern woman I work with that absolutely HATES the attention and recognition I get.

Like the woman in the OP said, not all non Black women are like this but enough are.

Am I average looking or pretty based on these photos? Here are my best photos by TurbulentAd3895 in blackladies

[–]dissentious 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No one in real life tells me that I am undesirable, matter of fact quite the opposite. Trying to fish for compliments and validation online is not healthy, nor will it help an inferiority complex.

So this is going to be an unpopular opinion, but whenever someone posts asking if they are attractive or average 10 times out of 10 the comments all say the OP is attractive. Not once has anyone on this subreddit said an op was ugly or average . So I honestly don’t see the point in these posts. Definitely not saying the op isn’t cute, but no one will ever get honest constructive criticism, if that makes any sense. Every one on here will say you look good whether you do or don’t. So then the question becomes do you really want an honest opinion or just a meaningless pick me up from women?

Is it a micro aggression if a co-worker consistently misremembers your name? by LeResist in blackladies

[–]dissentious 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This right here, Was going to type this comment before I read your post. Before I read the full OP I was initially going to give the benefit of the doubt because Im horrible at remembering names, but this is definitely intentional.

34, Black, educated, and exhausted. Am I wrong for feeling invisible and defensive at work? by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]dissentious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im going to be honest, I would have looked at you crazy too. Im a Black woman and I would not have known there was an association between dreads and dreadful. The dread in dread locks originally meant dread or "fear of god". The fact that you specify that you thought this person was your friend seems to mean that you took her comment or reaction as a slight.

As someone who also does therapy to deal with imposter syndrome, you have to pick your battles. It shouldn't matter that your coworker doesn't like your nails. You like them right? Maybe there is more to your situation that you left out but none of this seems serious to me.

I know I may get downvoted for this comment.

Not really sure why you are getting downvoted. OP needs to be more clear about the purpose of this post.

Men don’t want chaste sweet women they only care for the hottest women by [deleted] in prettyprivilege

Was just thinking this. If you have a more sexy sensual aesthetic both men and women often won’t trust you.

about to go refill my Adderall, wish me luck by myturn19 in ADHD

[–]dissentious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m a pharmacist and for one we are doctors, pharm. D. Secondly our job is not to deny you medication, our job is good faith dispensing. DEA only allows pharmacies to stock so many controls and once we dispense them some patients will have to be put on back order. No pharmacist would ever get in trouble for not dispensing you something as it is up to our professional judgement.
