You have been mad at me and have been for a while. You have been waiting for me to slip up or say something contrary to popular opinions. So you can pounce on me, I remember the day when you were done with me, yet you didn't come for me then.So why wait, since you have been holding it in. Let it out, I won't take any offense to what you say to me. I know the reason why, and I'm not made at you for it. But if you can let's stick to the comment at hand. Whatever you have to say let it out bro.
Oh and cheers

Okay, maybe mad was not the proper word. But you get my gist Why would I want you to be mad at me. Anywho, this is digressing too much. I will finish up my response about this thread tomorrow.

hmmm....so would y'all tell a foreign black woman not to come to the US? After all ...there is still hellafied racism here. Folks are literally being shot down and dragged thru the streets. Men accost u here same as anywhere else...and might even hurt you or kill you for turning them down. Any man that speaks to you here really don't like you....they just tryna fucc. I mean...i'm sure your friends have told you that they had a good time on their vacations to the US but they lying to you and their experiences don't mean sh*t. It's some bullsh*t here...not a good time to be had no where and everybody hates you. Fucc your "friend" who has lived in US with minimal trouble. She lying too.
*sighs* I swear The BHM gives so many mixed signals. On one hand other races of men want us but we don't want them and we're the most beautiful women on the planet fuccwhatuheard. On the other hand don't nobody want you black or white and can't nobody for damn sure want Raji's beautiful country ass...except for US niccas.
On one hand...get out, see the world, expand your horizons, experience other sh*t. On the other hand...you're not wanted no where so best to stay in the US.
I've heard crazy stories about Africa and was scared to go for the longest time but to hear some of y'all tell it...it's not everything they say on TV and is beautiful country and i'll be just as safe there (in certain parts) as the US. Yeah Africa has her prollems but that don't mean u can't have a good time. Is there a reason we can't apply that to alot of places? I hear Cuba and South America is fucced up but despite the high level of crime and the hate against dark people I'm still encouraged to go if I can by other folks who have lived there and who have visited.
The BHM would have u scared to visit Europe tho the US is the same if not worse.

Who said don't go?
All people have ever said is don't be naive and have these fairy tales of streets covered with haole male species fawning and kissing your feet.
And as was clearly noted, there is also street harassment, but how you interpret that just depends on your own biases
There's a huge difference

IMO it seems that there is more to it than "don't be naive". I mean alot of folks have said don't be naive when u go anywhere in any Travel thread. I think that's a given. The only one who has really has rose coloured glasses is Printer. It's been hinted that Raji has only just now "discovered" european men and shade has been thrown because she said expand your horizons or summin' to that effect and it was assumed she was talmbout white men when she coulda been talmbout men of colour from other places....or hell...just men period. Then when the conversation turns to different people experiences in these places if they had a nice time with no prollems it's assumed that they somehow didn't see the racism that was thrown at them. The one time I saw Paris I was scared because of what I saw in the news and how I was told how they hate black people and this, that and the third. Went...had an excellent time and would go back. I know that there is racism there but there are decent people too. I was lucky enough to not have had any prollems. Anecdotes are given on both sides I know. Hmmm...I guess my thing is when these talks happen...folks that have had a positive experience are somehow wrong and it's assumed that they are naive and don't know that living a place is different than visiting. I think that's what I'm tryna say. I however reserve the right to change my mind later after I eat.
