I know I’m probably about to offend a bunch of make up activists

but I don’t care.

There is such a thing as too much makeup.

The way that some girls depend on it is very similar to the way that junkies depend on drugs.

It’s not healthy. You can defend it all you like but it’s not going to make the addiction any less legitimate.

There is nothing wrong with makeup but too much of anything becomes a bad thing. This post isn’t for every girl that wore makeup ever it’s about a very specific type of girl that can’t be seen by anyone without applying at least 10 products to her face.

Girls alter themselves to resemble societal beauty ideals, and honestly it’s time for us to put our feet down. We shouldn’t be forced into this mentality of VS Angels and Maxim’s Hot 100. There’s nothing angelic or hot about hating yourself. 

I know girls that have said themselves that they wear makeup every day because they don’t think people would think they were pretty without it, so you can’t say that this is bull shit. 

This is for the bitches that second guess themselves because society tells them they’re anything less than beautiful

You are a beautiful ass gorgeous ass perfect ass bitch and all that matters is that you think so. I may not agree, society may not agree, Vogue may not agree, the media may not agree, the ass hole that you have a crush on may not agree but as long as YOU do, all else is irrelevant. You are not average or decent or okay or pretty you are STUNNING, FABULOUS, WONDERFUL and BREATH TAKING. You have every right to fall in love with your fucking reflection - you can be confident and you can be motherfucking cocky if you want because you’re FUCKINGGGG BEAUTIFUL and you earned it bitch. Stop letting these feelings of insecurity and inferiority define you and overwhelm you when you see girls on Tumblr. BASKKK in your perfection bitch. Swim in it. Masturbate in it. Stop letting this backward ass society tell you how you should feel about yourself. Fuck that shit. Let your perfection roar bitch.

Sincerely,
A bitch that appreciates your existence and would appreciate it more if you appreciated it. 

There’s nothing worse than a misery you can’t explain.

I want to be more than my smile or my hair or my skin or my ass or my tits. It’s more important to me to overwhelm you in my intelligence, art, and idiosyncrasies than it ever will be to dazzle you in a superficial “beauty” that’s only beautiful because society says it is and that will soon dull in comparison to the next girl that comes along more closely resembling your visual standards for perfection.

Im christian but sometimes I wonder if the devil cries himself to sleep at night. I wonder if he regrets what he did. I wonder what was going through his mind when he fell from heaven. I wonder if he misses what he had before. If he could do everything all over again, I wonder what he’d do differently.

Ok so I really still like my ex. The other L word makes me uncomfortable so I’ll just stick with like. He hooked up with at least 2 girls yesterday at a party we were at. I don’t think he knows how I feel but at this point I’m sure it doesn’t matter. I basically told him to fuck the one of the girls. I’m friends with both of them. Neither of them know I still like him.

And it’s just really hard to like myself sometimes because at the party yesterday, everyone was hooking up and I wasnt. Like, fuck. And girls from school were coming up to me with these drunk confessionalike “you’re so gorgeous everyone thinks you’re so gorgeous” like are they trying to pity the homely bitch with short nappy hair that nobody wanted to hook up with? Fuck

i’m kind of weird looking but every once in awhile someone thinks i’m good looking & it makes me smile

I like giving head. It makes me feel powerful & in control. The fact that I can make a guy moan no matter how badly he doesn’t want to because he thinks it belittles his masculinity makes me happy. I generally only give head to people I’m in relationships with because it’s a privilege, but I enjoy it, almost as much as I enjoy the helplessness of being eaten out.

She’s better than me and it pisses me off

i noticed that an average looking light skinned girl will usually get more attention than a gorgeous dark skinned girl

& that a light skinned person & dark skinned person can be equally hideous, but the dark one will be shitted on 10x more.

& no one ever admits to this, but it’s very very true.

cute ass guy liked a picture of me 

*high fiving self*

My father is Dominican & Puerto Rican

almost every Caribbean Latino will tell you that there are people in their family from completely opposite ends of the spectrum because to be Latino involves so much diversity within itself. One of your cousins looks like David Ortiz and another looks like Amelia Vega. Something Latinos need to stop doing is disregarding, shunning and ignoring their African heritage because without African culture, to be Latino wouldn’t mean the same thing. There would be no tango no salsa no bachata no merengue. There wouldn’t be a beautiful wide variety of skin tones and hair textures, and virtually all of the curves in the Latina population would disappear. We need to embrace our African identity, but I don’t feel that in doing so our African identity should over power our Latino identity. In celebration of Latino identity we should be celebrating African identity by default, but the problem lies in the denial that being black is in fact a part being Latino (for many/most of us - and even for those who personally don’t have black heritage, stop trying to pretend that Afro-Latinos aren’t a real thing or as important to Latino identity as your white/indigenous ass is). But I don’t like the way some people try to act as if Afro-Latinos are just “self hating blacks” or some other shit for the simple fact that they identify as Latinos. If white/indigenous Latinos aren’t looked down upon for identifying as Latinos, why should we be?

the picture on the top right was taken in 2010. the bottom right was feb of this year and the one on the left was about 2 weeks ago. when my hair was longer everyone would ask me what i was mixed with, even when i first cut my hair people still saw me as mixed but now that i have my super short mini fro people tell me that now they just see me as black. i think its crazy how mentally limited some people are. i am black, among other things, but im not going to be forced into identifying a certain way because of anyone elses narrow mind. its not wedentity or youdentity or societydentity it’s identity, as in i define myself. im not by any means trying escape my blackness im just being real. my father is dominican & puerto rican. hispanic. latino. afro-latino to be specific. my mother’s mother is korean cherokee & bajan and her father is cape verdean and white, but i call her black to avoid drawn out explanations. my point is that you have every right to judge me and jump to conclusions that are most likely incorrect, and i have every right to banish you and your opinions to the dungeon of all things irrelevant.

i dream of the day ms dominican republic will have brown, radiant skin and thick curly hair.
