Facts. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen “#teacherbae, #copbae, #doctorbae, etc.”Women are judged by their looks first and foremost. When a dime does something of value to society, every man like "aw that's cute" but most attention comes from her body. A dime could cure cancer, but most of her followers on IG would be following her to drool over her ass.
Having your looks being your most valuable asset as judged by society is probably more damaging to attractive women because looks and beauty are fleeting. Which is why this girl talked about turning 30 like she was turning 55.
Men are alot more realistic with expectations then given credit for.It wasn’t nowhere near this bad in the 80’s, 90’s, 2000’s or even 2010’s. Even Halle Berry would be considered “average” by today’s standards for women’s looks. Nowadays, men would look at prime Nia Long, Janet Jackson or Sade like “meh”, she too skinny, elbows too pointy, no ass.Everybody want that mythical redbone with a dime face, thick natural curly hair and natural 44P-23-60 measurements. And those women who look like a dime for .5 seconds in their early 20’s and too many times end up blowing up to be like 300-400 lbs and have hella kids.

I LITERALLY was just watching the Steve Harvey Miss Universe pageant a month ago and she was one of the TV commentators
She was all smiles and jovial judging the contestants

R.I.P. to this young lady.
But I keep telling y'all, there's something wrong with this society that has become so "liberated and tolerant"
You got Black folks who lived through hundreds of years of slavery and Jim Crow and mass incarceration and weren't doing this like this generation is doing now and falling to suicide and drug overdoses.
Goes to show you that when you do away with real communities and promote cultural chaos, people feel lost.
Young people have no idea about where they belong in this society anymore, so they hit 30 and realize that they have no idea about where they're going or what they're doing even though they may have money or fame.or instagram followers it falls apart.
Folks may scoff, but there's a reason this shyt is accelerating.
The only thing that is going to solve this is for Black folks to get back to being community/family oriented and stop telling these kids that being a doctor, lawyer, basketball player, rapper, actor, etc. . .is more important than building strong Black families.![]()

She's a friend of a friend. Seems to have been a surprise to everyone in her circles, but they all saying depression is rampant among attorneys.

I think that point alone is huge. Society doesn't give a shyt about what women accomplish in their careers in terms of our collective value of them. When society sees adult women, there's an expectation of her being partnered with a man and a mother. Many women buy into this ideal, I'd imagine it's pretty damn difficult not to.
Bro you're not lying. One thing I've learned just talking to people from all different walks of life is that alot of people are just lost and unhappy. I've seen 20 yr olds depressed because they feel they've failed at life already because they're not living the IG life they think they are. I've seen doctors in their residency unhappy and thinking about a career change because it's not truly what they wanted to do. But both give off the impression that everything is fine on the surface. Just watch people and your loved ones around you. Someone that seems that they have it all can be drowning on the inside. Not saying it's your job to fix them. But you could potentially steer them back ashore if you reach out.Dap + Rep.
This society has no right of passage, dozen of ways to hide your pain, and hundreds of ways to fail.
