Just a thought before I retreat into my “me space.” This is for the men. If it doesn’t apply, let it fly. This is my personal feelings and you don’t need to be offended. If you are, those are your feelings and you own them.

It would be nice if you didn’t use your social media accounts for sharing overly-sexualized and degrading images of women of color. It is those types images that continue to be detrimental to our reputations. Most of us cannot relate to, nor do we engage in those types of behaviors. When you mindlessly share those images via social media, it gives life to harmful stereotypes that only serve to hurt the women that are your wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters.

I have no interest in feminism, if being objectified is the outcome. Women of color are the least loved, respected, and valued in our society. Please do your part to do better by us.
