Recently, I've been seeing a lot of think pieces by white feminists about Beyonce, Serena Williams, Michelle Obama, and other famous black women. Most of these have headlines condemning their bodies and how they use them. One article's headline called Beyonce a straight whore and said that Serena's swimsuit shoot was something similar to porn. Now all of this is bullshit. It's just white women hating black women for being in control and loving their bodies. Black women can't live their life without mainstream media outlets thinking that they can have a say. As if what these whit people have to say even matters. If Beyonce wants to have an amazing photoshoot to show off her pregnant belly, then she's going to do that and you can't do anything except be salty and jealous. White women need to stop demonizing black women's bodies because it is not your damn place.
I am sick of seeing all of this unnecessary white fragility over strong black women.
Leslie Jones may not "fit the mold", but that's the same mold of slim and feminine women. Leslie Jones is an amazing actress and a phenomenal comedian. She doesn't have to fit a look because she is her own person with an amazing body and exceptional talent.
Simone Biles is constantly getting smack for her body, but maybe ya'll forgot that she is a gold medalist olympian. She is the fourth American female gymnast to win five medals in a single Olympics. So how about we let her live her life?
Michelle Obama has faced so much misogynistic and racist backlash during her time of being the first lady. People have called her fat, too masculine, ugly, and I am sick of it. She has a Ivy League education and is an inspiring individual. Here is a link to all of her amazing accomplishments as our First Lady: http://blackdoctor.org/483712/job-well-done-first-lady-16-accomplishments-of-michelle-obama/
Beyonce is too confident, but she's Beyonce. She is an amazing singer, actress, dancer, and mother. So sit down and shut up. Here is full list of all her broken records and accomplishments: https://beyoncegalaxy.wordpress.com/records/
Serena Williams might look too like a man to you, but to me she is the greatest athelete ever. Period. She has won four grand slams in a row and is a gold medal olympians with a full list of accomplishments: http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/rio-2016/2016/08/09/serena-williams-olympics-grand-slam/88442570/
All of these horrible remarks show how it doesn't matter how much you succeed because people only want to look at your outward appearance. They will never give you credit for the amazing things you've done if you don't make them feel comfortable about themselves. A lot of people cannot handle black women just succeeding because then they feel less than. So they make unnecessary and disrespectful thinkpieces disguised as a way to preach their feminist ideals, when really they are being hateful and disgusting.
