Are We Really That Over the Top?


So, we will all pack in to see "Why Did I Get Married Too" this weekend and hopefully you will laugh and get tearful at the highly emotional scenes just as I did. However, when it was all said and done, I had just one question - are we really that over the top? Are black women really that emotional? YES - YES and YES. But why??????

Yeah I know its just a movie and yes, I know Angela is a very dramatic version, but when you get right down to it, we are very emotional, expressive beings. Its like that song "Real Woman" we can go on and on until we prove our point and we are so quick to pull the coat of anyone who dares to try and wrong us or "disrespect us." What is it? Are we taught this? Is it innate? I don't know, but I do know I'm guilty of it too.

Whoever it was that first said..."black women don't take no ----" wasn't kidding. We are REAL. We are straight up. But its all good, its what makes us who and what we are...."REAL WOMEN"

Go in peace my black women~~
