litebrite87 I have been married for close to two years, so I may not be fully qualified to respond, but I can incorporate some things I've noticed with my parents who have been married for 25 years. 1. You have to be able to accept the good and the bad, unless the...

I'm watching Tyra Banks right now, and I find the show to be very interesting. It's about peoples perception of skin color (light skin vs. dark skin). I know that this issue exists in the black community. But, with the diversity...

litebrite87 As a dark-skinned black girl in America I have definitely been told all sorts of negative things about my complexion by members of the black community. It used to bother me when I was much younger, but I stopped caring a long time ago, although it still...

I have recently transitioned from relaxed to natural and I have noticed that there is a higher number of black women doing the same. For centuries it has been taboo for women of African ancestry to wear their hair without some...

I am a proud mom of a second baby boy. I didn't nurse my first son, but I thought I would give it a try with Ari. Well, I'm loving it so far. The hardest thing about it is trying to get used to doing it in public. I'm not as shy...

litebrite87 When I breastfed my daughter I learned to multi-task. I learned to type on the computer, read, watch TV, and carefully move around while nursing. But I must add that it is a lot easier to do other things with a newborn, rather than a baby that is starting to...

I am 100% against illegal immigration, because it is illegal. Also, it hurts my country. I am a proud American, my family tree goes back many generations in this country. My family for the most part started in Germany and came to...

litebrite87 It's not racist to be against illegal immigration, but it is racist to only care about illegal immigrants that are from Mexico. The majority of illegals are actually from other countries, but the most concentrated amount are from Mexico due to the poor quality...

My husband and I are two different races. We have been fortunate enough to avoid racism in public, but I haven't met any of his extended family, because I am black. They have all met our daughter and couldn't stop raving about her...

litebrite87 I agree. My mother-in-law responded similarly stating that she was only concerned about what other people would think. I think that real problem is fear. If more people would stop worrying about what others would think then there would be much less room for...

litebrite87 I really didn't want it to come to this, so I'm still hoping that things turn around. The funny part is that they have a lot of misconceptions about blacks that they have admitted to knowing aren't true, and that I completely break. They would rahter have...

litebrite87 I also live in the south, North Carolina to be exact, but I had never encountered racism that was this blatant before. I'm actually from mixed heritage myself, I come from; black, West Indian, Catawba, French, Danish, and Scott-Irish heritage, so I don't...

litebrite87 I find it so strange that people get so caught in what was standard in their day, even if they know it's wrong. It would be just a ridiculous for me to say that it's okay for adolescents to have type 2 diabetes, because when I was younger their was and...

litebrite87 What you're experiencing makes sense. Following all of the rules of any religion is very hard, that's why there is forgiveness. If people were made with free will there would be nothing wrong in this world. Have you ever considered that Christianity might not...

I just heard a couple of weeks ago on my local news that scientists have come up with a procedure that fertilizes a human egg with something from the bone marrow of another female! I am very torn on this. I have nothing against...

litebrite87 That's really creepy. I think that scientists are going a little to far with exploring all of the unnatural options that can be done with the human body. If the world were ever in a position where every man was dead, then, this would be useful, but right now...

I'm more on the quiet side, but I've made myself louder to make my husband happy. You would expect for everyone to moan a lot when you watch TV, but we all know that it isn't so. So, are you quiet or loud?

litebrite87 Yeah, I think that guys are usually quieter.

litebrite87 A part of me has always thought of just letting loose and being as loud as I want to be, but I'm too shy and quiet by nature.
