Kanyeโ€™s cancellation is upsetting to a lot of Black people because itโ€™s bothersome to see others exercise a level of self-respect that you donโ€™t possess.

Unpopular Opinion: Children are not biologically hardwired for a closer connection with mom. Like all vulnerable living things, children cling to the source of their nourishment/care/comfort, all offerings men have aggressively avoided under the guise of biological barriers.

Beyond the obvious physical abuse, this Blueface and Chrisean situation is ripe with psychological violence. Appearing nonchalant and indifferent in the face of chaos you helped cause is a form of gaslighting we rarely discuss. Itโ€™s actually one of the narcissistโ€™s super powers.

Women arenโ€™t predisposed to sooth crying babies, remember birthdays and best friends, or stomach diarrhea diapers. We do the work, we ask the questions, we spend the time, we show up, we study our children because we desire depth and intimacy with them.

Not because of biology, but mainly due to gender conditioning. Girlhood doubles as domestic drill, maternal training camp, if you will. Toys act as training tools to teach little girls cooking, cleaning and childcare skills, skills boys for some strange reason donโ€™t need to know.
