You, Plies, Are The Motivation For My Education.

While getting my daily dose of irrelevant celeb info on Crunk & Disorderly, I stumbled across THIS.

** WARNING: Explicit Content **



Y'all when I saw this I almost CRIED. Even with the unthinkable being aired on television nowadays, I still can't comprehend the possibility of a show like this being produced. What kind of world are we living in when women are beckoned to show their thongs and give explicit oral sex techniques for the opportunity to be crowned a "Bust It Baby?" What got me the most was that there were BLACK WOMEN on a panel telling other black women to pull down their trousers and reveal their undergarments. Damn, I don't mean to sound cliche but whatever happened to uplifting one another and reiterating the fact that ALL women are queens? Images such as these are becoming too commonplace and it is for this reason that I am going to finish school just so I can be a presence that counteracts what is unfortunately becoming the status quo... is this what they are expecting of us? Is this all that we are... butt-shakin' cocksuckers?! I THINK NOT. It is my prayer that I can help at least one woman realize the value that she has. Women (especially Black women) are historically strong beings... we've been graced to overcome the seemingly impossible! So WHY are we acting like THIS. Man, I swear I'm so heated right now that I can't even compose my thoughts... instead of judgment, they need prayer. Lord, Have Mercy On Us All.

PEACE.
