Kiss My Preference


"I like curly haired women." "Black women are loud." "Why aren't you open to new experiences?" "You shouldn't wear weave." I think I have just about had it with these young black men. Who do you think you are? Curling irons curl hair. You haven't dated all black women so stop putting us in one category. Some new experiences are best left undone. All women wear "extensions". Would it be better if we said "extensions"? I have some complaints of my own. WHY do you have $300 shoes and no car? WHY do you get tattoos instead of groceries? WHY do you call women out of their name on a daily basis? WHY do you think women are supposed to take care of you? Don't answer that. That is all. :-)
