Racquel's Top 5

Ignorance

     This should go without saying especially being a person of colour. If you don’t have an open mind about other things in the world, you’re not for me. I’m not saying that our views on life have to be the same, I just hope that you are open minded enough to see my point of view and accept is without the need to get aggressive or excessively prove your point.

Touching/grabbing me without consent

     So I was at the club this past week and mans decided it was okay to just grab my butt...NO SIR. Last time I checked touching someone without their consent is considered rape so back the fuck off you are definitely not getting my attention now. Fellas there are better ways to approach a queen. You think Jay-Z got Beyonce by creepily touching her ass as she walked past in the club? NAH.

Poor hygiene

     Please everyone. Just bathe and apply your deodorant because I will tell you you smell. This also applies to messy ass people who don’t know how or when to clean. You. Are. DUTTY. And. Not. For. Me.

Mansplaining

     This is where a man is explaining something to a woman in a way that is condescending or patronizing. Men (definitely not all of you, only a few idiots), we already have to deal with bare in our lives without you talking down to us. Please take the time out of your life to check your ego and talk to us like we’re not the helpless, incoherent humans.

Haters/Jealous People

     Everyone is living their life on their own time and in their own way going down their own path. Please respect that and don’t be hating because you're not feeling the best about yourself.

Kim's Top 5

Insensitivity

It really gets to me when people show no empathy for people's lives and situations. Some of the shit I hear people say to not only myself but to others is totally ridiculous. Everyone is living different lives in this messed up world, you do not know what people are truly going through. Aim to understand, then to love.

Dream Crushers

Honestly...go get your own dreams to crush because I really ain't got no time. Instead of supporting and putting positive energy into a situation...you want to be a hater. No one likes a hater.

Culture Vultures

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, yea cool, but it gets super cringy at times. Biting the cultural practices of a people, and then trying to play it off as if its natural to you gets kinda weird...just saying lol.

PPL who don't think for themselves

If you're always believing the hype and limiting yourself to societal trends then we just can't relate. Everything is designed to influence and have a major impact on how we view "our" world. Always questioning the status quo and exercising free thought is very, very, important.

When ppl debate facts

     I understand that everyone has a different perspective on what the "Divine Truth" is, but fact is, the truth is the truth. There are so many factual evidences throughout history, science, traditions, that all relate on a crazy crazy level. You really can't deny the real, although people do.
