“It’s not what you look at that matters. It’s what you see”

God I would have loved to be on Soul Train!! I would have been queen of the disco hunny, afro and all. I swear I was born in the wrong decade…
I love all of the music that came out of the Mowtown era. So raw and soulful, everything.

These past few days on tumblr have exposed me to so much beauty. It has been such a joy seeing models and editorials that I would never come across in mainstream fashion magazines. I love having the option of viewing the type of beauty that relates to me and the type of beauty I want to see. If only we could start a REVOLUTION and change what’s featured in all those publications we read and what we view on T.V. Who knows, it could happen. The Internet is a powerful tool, I don’t think we utilize it to our advantage. I know I’m ranting but I’m excited. I love seeing beautiful, everyday girls, who are just simply gorgeous in their natural state. Don’t even get me started on all these afros!!! I wish I could see all this on the daily but I get my fix here. I am slightly disappointed that I did not discover this fabulous site earlier but I have a strong inkling that I will be using this site to express my visual fantasies for a long time…

Men love insecure, uneducated, submissive, needy women. You know why men don’t like eccentric, intelligent, sexual, responsible, independent, free, secure, confident, beautiful women?
Because they aren’t men. And we know their secret.

“Why must we wear cloths? I just want to walk right outside, go down the street and around the corner, run and catch my bus, hop on the train, head into the city and enjoy my day, NAKED.”
