Nah blk women are always judged by the worst elements of our race. Hell all blk people are. Most people wouldn't disagree with that, but somehow that doesn't apply to blk women?
But blks in this thread seem unwilling to acknowledge any struggle a blk woman goes through b/c many have probably used these stereotypes or perpetrated them as well when it benefits them. (Ie caping for white puss)
Preconceived notions and stereotypes rob individuals of their humanity. So blk women aren't allowed to experience a full range of human emotion without sacrificing her femininity b/c she's already in a social box. In a lot of cases even blk men are now stereotyping their own women. Not b/c all or most blk women have attitudes, but b/c the ones they choose to deal with do.
Because the the myriad of images they see and hear about their women in the media say they do. I think now a days some of our men don't know us. They know the caricatures of blk women but they don't know us. For some, the image of blk women is frozen in stereotypical 90s caricatures of neck Rollin, finger snapping Shenequas. We're being held accountable for the mistakes of a minority within a minority.
This thread is actually pretty ironic but some of y'all won't get why.
