I'd like to ban the "f-word," but unfortunately, it seems to be the only word in the English language protected by the First Amendment.
“Bitch” is still ok?
Beyonce has some white ancestry somewhere so she is on the pale side AND there are plenty of sisters like me who love the way they look. Don’t get it twisted.
Ugh! I hate when non-blacks talk about this issue... so full of generalizations and old-fashioned thinking...
I agree with you on that one. Why does anybody listen to these people. They are so out of touch with real life it ain’t even funny
Who is talking about customers? These were passer bys, not customers. No wonder Beyonce fets away with it... sheesh.
Just responding to say I do not agree with you. Whipping children? Not with you.
Rather bossy of her.
It may be old fashioned, as my info on this came from a couple of friends in college, back in 1988. A brother and sister who were children of Liberian immigrants, who were very upset with the way they were being treated by other Blacks at the school.

“Bossy, as in telling people which words can or cannot be used? Do you mean that kind of bossy?”
I have a theory that women with beautiful voices also have a lot of empty space in their heads and that is why their voices resonate so well.
