How attractive are you out of 10? – Belladonna’s Flashlight

Listen, dum dum, if I want your opinion, I’ll squeeze your nose, or I’ll willingly FaceTime you so you can tear me apart one pound at a time!

Is it weird for women, mainly black women, to call into this guy’s podcast so he can judge them?

The other day, I was innocently scrolling through FB, enjoying make-up and hair videos, when I stumbled upon this doof who dares his callers to rate themselves higher than a four. Can you believe it? A FOUR! It’s like he’s living in a different century.

Caller

I’m 5’4, 34 years old, and what did you ask me for? My dress size? I’m a size 14, and yes, I do have a college degree, and I have excellent credit.

She continues by saying she rates herself an 8 out of 10, and after she says that, she sits in silence as he judges her entire existence. After that long, awkward pause, he says, “Do you want to find someone who has money, or is $50,000-70,000 a year reasonable?”

She responded, ” Well, I would like to find someone who’s making as much as me or more so we can travel and be financially secure.

Without hesitation, he told her, you do not have the look or size that would attract a man with money; Your look will only get you a man that is making average or less than average money.

Caller

I’m 5’6, 145 pounds, I wear a size 7/8, and I have my bachelor’s as well as my master’s, and I rate myself a 9.

He chuckled and said, first of all, you are not a size 7/8; you’re much bigger than that, and you must be rating yourself out of 100 because you aren’t a 9 out of 10.

He continues to tell her the same as caller .

This nonsense continues one call after the next, and I can’t help but wonder why these women are stooping so low by asking this moron what kind of man they should be looking for. And his only answer is;

  • You aren’t good enough
  • You’re too fat
  • You’re not that good-looking
  • You can’t compete with the beautiful women the upper-class men can choose from
  • You are a 4 at best

This guy is a shithead! The last thing we need as women is for a scum bucket to define us by a number. We need a little less judgment based on our appearance. Last but definitely not least, we are more than just a number on a scale or a dress size.

 

We all deserve love, happiness and that one person who makes us feel like the queen we are!

You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

Prazer, estranha – O Outro Lado

Na autonomia do dia as cores parecem estranhas. Miudezas agigantam no quintal. Recebo a visita do toque. A rotina não é a mesma da espera. Ontem o tempo mudou. A imunidade caiu. A moça de azul pediu cuidados. Desenhei seu nome mil vezes. Pintei corações no muro. Dizem que é o delírio da febre. A voz não sai mesmo na tentativa da canção.
O meu silêncio dedico ao toque. Faço mímicas. Ninguém compreende os sinais de saudades. É falta em tudo que é canto. Vontade de pouso em tua mão. O chá amargo avalia o dia. A estranha sou eu.
