Inside of every black queen, there is love

It doesn't matter your culture, if you're light or dark, if your hair is long or short, if you're thin, curvy, or pleasantly plump, you are still one of a kind <3<3<3

This MyTake wasn't much but I just felt like writing something to my fellow black sistas <3 <3

[Salmon4056]

This is a great mytake. your post is inspiring and is just what some black women here, who are repeatedly experience hate for being who they are in their God given skin, need to listen to. Have a blessed day queen👑😊.

[LuvAsh]

Thank you so much!!😊

[Cynicaldreamer]

Yes! Thank you for the inspiring, nice mytake. It's a nice change of pace from some of the other toxicity you see towards black women online

[LuvAsh]

Thank you!!😊😊

[zozo7880]

This must be in response to that white queen post the other day.
You two should just put on the gloves and go at it.

[LuvAsh]

No, mines was the original post.

[zozo7880]

Yeah I realized that after I wrote this

[JDavid25]

Good take... It's not to see somethin like this every once in a while on G-A-G...

[LuvAsh]

Thank you!

[JDavid25]

Of course.. You already know.. I support "Black" sistas.. Too bad sometimes it spits back in my face.. XD...

[LuvAsh]

What do u mean?

[JDavid25]

Well, I know a lot of "Black" men act like sh! t.. But sometimes "Black" women act like we the enemy..

[LuvAsh]

Dont let a couple of black women or men stop u from loving ur own race. In every race there are crazy folks😂😂😂 and I've had a lot of problems with other black people but I still love my people 🤷🏾 and I understand the core of why some people act the way they do.

[JDavid25]

Lol.. Trust me I haven't... For all the disappointment I went through wit "Black" people, I never let it stop me.. XD.. I mean "Black" women maybe sometimes the most funny actin, but they also can be the most friendly toward me.. And I'm one of those people who don't like to claim "my own race" cause I believe that all "races" are distant family.. But yeah I agree wit what you sayin.. XD

[JDavid25]

Also I meant "nice to see"****

[LuvAsh]

Ik what u meant lol

[JDavid25]

I figured.. Haha.. I was just makin sure..

[kelsey_disney]

This is the best take on here! Great post about black queens 👌👌👌 the world needs more of this because the toxic environment towards women of color is unbearable 🤢

[LuvAsh]

Thank you!!
I had posted this before the other "queen" mytakes. And what I dislike it the fact the GAG waited like 2-3 days to put mines on feature to where no one would rlly be able to see it anyways bc it'll be blocked by a bunch of other posts. But the other mytakes about white women and other kind of women was featured right after the fact🤦🏾
I think its ridiculous but I'm glad that there are people like u on here that actually understand!!

[kelsey_disney]

Omg that’s ass. Tbh I only saw yours because of the other queen mytake, which is completely unacceptable. Just goes to show you that racism is EVERYWHERE, especially towards black people. Keep making noise tho queen 👸💪💪💪 don’t let the haters silence you

[DizzyDesii]

Preeeach 👏 but you forgot. INSIDE OF EVERY QUEEN IS A LADY IN THE STREETS AND A FREAK IN THE SHEETS. Yassss 🙌

[PrincessGrail]

I love this Take so much that I won’t even mention how “drawing the black queen” is a synonym for death in a certain superhero series (Wild Cards) from the author of Game of Thrones.

[LuvAsh]

I don't know why this made me laugh rofl

[PrincessGrail]

It is kinda funny 😂

[Britantic]

[Britantic]

As a white queen I applaud your Mytake.

You've encouraged me to write a similar mytake about White Queens to encourage my fellow white sisters.👌🤜🤗🧡

[BrittBratt2416]

okay so I see why you did that take now. You found this offensive cause it's about praising and uplifting black women. And because it's praising black women, you felt the need to take a shot at cause you feel excluded. I see white women and non black women do this all the time, and I'm not surprised you put a game thrones picture showing Daenerys being uplifted by a bunch of people who are more on the brownish side. Ask yourself, why did a post like this offend/trigger you for such of response? It seem anytime black women are given attention someone always sees it as divisive or negative meanwhile I bet if this post was about white women being uplifted you wouldn't have said a single word. White have been praised for their beauty for centuries while black women weren't simple cause of the shade of their skin tone and for you to oull this passive aggressive shit is highly immature and subconsciously racist.

[Britantic]

@BrittBratt2416 Praising and uplifting white women does not take away anything from white women. It's important to be proud of who you are and where you come from.
I was inspired by the other take and supportive of it, no need to start a microaggression.

[BrittBratt2416]

of course praising and uplifting white women doesn't take anything from white women lol And no you were not being supportive of this post at all, you passively aggressively attacked this post and you know it. If you were really being supportive you wouldn't felt to need to make make a mock post of this one.

"
They say White Queens are the standard of beauty and I guess thats maybe been true for a few thousand years."

So you agree that white women are the standard of beauty and believe it to be true for a thousands of years. Threw sneakily threw that in there but I already know why you did it. It's because you still see white women above black women

[Britantic]

@BrittBratt2416 ididnt mock anything, I merely wrote a take to lift up my fellow white queens, people should be proud of who they are and where they come from.

"They say White Queens are the standard of beauty and I guess thats maybe been true for a few thousand years." Well this is historically true, white women have been desired by everyone from Persian kings to chineese emperors. African pirates used to raid European coasts in search of white girls to be sold into slavery, blonde & redheads would be worth the most as would blue eyed girls.

I'm sorry that you have problems with White Queens and feel the need to shame them for the colour of their skin.

[BrittBratt2416]

I am not shaming you and you know that, I'm simple calling out your behavior. If you had wrote that take simple just to write it cause you wanted to and not a responds to this take then I wouldn't had an issue with it at all. Everyone already knows the history about why white women are seen as the epitome of beauty around this world, it's not a secret. I don't have a problem with white women liking their own beauty, that is fine you should like yourself but i do have a problem when people get offended when black beauty is being uplifted or talked about. That is the only thing that drove you to right this post and nothing else and that is my issue with it.

[Britantic]

@BrittBratt2416 Well im not offended by black queens, Asian queens, Arab queens or whatever

[BrittBratt2416]

If you say so, but i have my doubts.

[Britantic]

@BrittBratt2416 I have my doubts about your intentions too.

[BrittBratt2416]

I have no other intentions.. I just wanted to make sure you weren't doing what i thought you were doing.

[JDavid25]

Clearly you are mockin this post.. SMH... LMAO..

[Britantic]

@JDavid25 in your opinion.

[Nadim171]

She isn't mocking her post, she's serious. If you really hate on her so much just for being "white" you're actually the haters here.

[JDavid25]

It's fact, I mean you even posted some meme about the "White" devil.. @Nadim171 how can I hate her when I don't even know her.. I just think she is mockin this post..

[Britantic]

@JDavid25 ace ventura https://youtu.be/JwADL_f4DWA

[JDavid25]

I knew what it was.. But why post it? LOL..

[Britantic]

@JDavid25 love that movie is why

[JDavid25]

I doubt that's why but okay.. LMAO.. 8)..

[Britantic]

@JDavid25 it's a good movie

[JDavid25]

Of course.. Well, I never seen it, but if it was just because you liked the movie.. It could have been any other scene.. XD.. And not the scene wit the "White" devil sayin..

[zozo7880]

Its like the British civil war in this comment box

[Afrochick]

LOL bitter beckys, mei-lings, and consuelas come out to play.

KEEP THIS SAME ENERGY WHEN WE ARE BEING BASHED AND OSTRACIZED <3

[TheGuy101]

@BrittBratt2416 i love white Queens

[TheGuy101]

White Queens are most attractive and Beautiful ❤️

[HereIbe]

Inside every Black Queen there is weepng.
Inside every Black Queen there is fatigue.
Inside every Black Queen there is fragility.
Inside every Black Queen there is self-loathing.

Wrap her in your arms, give her all you have. Be hers and no other woman's, even in your thoughts.

[ronaldo75]

THANK YOU

[HereIbe]

Wow, women are pissed off that I tell men to be 100% loyal to a Black Queen because she needs you.

I wonder why.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Yes!! :) <3

You go! <3

[LuvAsh]

Thank you😊 how have u been?

[SpiderManFan2002]

I've been good! :)

[Smegskull]

It must be nice to live in America with such a range of attractive women in the dating pool.

[Pink2000]

It is.

[Smegskull]

All right, all right, no need to brag. Making me jealous 😞

[JamesBoradil03]

cool? like i agree but this isn't really hottpic

[LuvAsh]

What? And I don't know maybe ur on the app and the Mytake isn't showinf completely. Idky it did that but if u were on the website it has the entire mytake up there. This site gets on my nerves sometimes🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾

[JamesBoradil03]

ohhhh im onn questions so its just this new settup they have

[LuvAsh]

Oh okay then

[morrowlow]

if i didn't know better i would say this sounds a little arrogant

[HereIbe]

All these "X Queen" posts are arrogant. Let them have their fun.

[morrowlow]

@HereIbe true

[Nadim171]

Please, all of you, stop this, really stop this white, black, brown, yellow queen thing. I don't get the point of dividing it on race

[TheGuy101]

What about green queen?

[HeyThere94]

I do not care about her skin color

Is she a dominant tomboy? If so, I am all in

[BrittBratt2416]

beautiful ladies!

[LuvAsh]

Thank you!!

[just_a_potato]

I needed that today 😊

[Rissyanne]

What makes them queens?

[Shuri]

It's a term that was developed in African American culture for three reasons. The first is that many of the great kings and queens in history came from Africa. Many Africans are also associated with the Israelites or God's chosen people. In a sense, they are considered their descendants.

The second reason is because black women moreso than other women are historically degraded when compared to their white, Asian, or latina counterparts. It's a term of endearment and meant to uplift black women so that when we look at ourselves as a whole that we know we can do great things (because we can and often do).

The third reason is because, like queens, black women are unique in many regards from our hair to facial structure and skin tones so much so that a lot of other women of different ethnic groups attempt to mimic it. For instance, black women are much more likely to have larger lips but many white and Asian women do everything in their power to make their lips look bigger. Or white women getting tan when black women used to be mad fun of for their dark tones, the irony being that in many European white societies, being pale used to be beautiful because it meant you didn't work. Whether that's with injections or make up, the beauty industry shows this. It's hilarious when you think about it because black women used to be mocked for these things and now other ethnicities try to take it. Even our hairstyles. Black women get made fun of for sew ins, extensions, and hair colors, but when white women do it, it's 'trendy'.

Basically, it's a reminder that we are beautiful and unique.

[Rissyanne]

@Shuri yeah real queens lol

[Shuri]

You asked and there's the answer. We don't really care if you like it or not because you aren't important.

[Rissyanne]

@Shuri sorry I’ve just seen so many “queens” on you tube fighting and tearing out each other’s weaves.

[Shuri]

There's just as many trailer trash Tammy's on there, too. However, I don't let them speak for everyone of their race. Just because you come from a good family doesn't mean you're a good person. Hopefully you learn to not judge a group of people based on a select few. I would think at 53 you would have learned that lesson. But I guess we can't make any assumptions.

[Rissyanne]

@Shuri I just think it is hilarious to call yourself a queen

[Shuri]

Dude, it's a metaphor. A positive one. I don't see why that's hilarious, but if you aren't used to being a positive person, then I guess it's unreasonable for me to expect you to understand that.

[Rissyanne]

@Shuri I guess I have seen so many hood rats. It’s hard to believe they are queens

[Pink2000]

I know that’s right !

[Ordinarygurl_]

Nice 👍

[LuvAsh]

Thanks!

[Ordinarygurl_]

No problem

[WhiteSteve]

Respect ✊ 😎

[VaIiant]

Why not write about every culture? Why segregate?

[LuvAsh]

Because black women are continuously put down in society. Rarely do you ever see people uplifting black women, not even black men. So this Mytake is for them and only them.
And I can make a Mytake about anyone I want to. If I wanted to write about every culture, I would have.
And if you want to see a Mytake about other races then u are more than welcome to make your own.
Have a great day

[VaIiant]

I’m all for lifting up black women, but Asian/Hispanics and etc are also rarely lifted up either. Doing this really only pushes the issue of segregation further.

[LuvAsh]

In the black community, black men uplift Asian, and ecspecially white and hispanic women.
I'm not dealing with the issues of "segregation". I am dealing with the self esteem issues for black women. If someone wants to make a mytake for all cultures then they can do it. That isn't the purpose of this Mytake🤷🏾🤷🏾🤷🏾

[VaIiant]

It might be different everywhere then, where I used to live prior to college, Black women were considered the most attractive and the most wanted.

[LuvAsh]

Where did you use to live?
That doesn't sound anything like most American cities😂 black women usually get the end of the stick🤷🏾 its usually light skin women and "foreign" women that get all the love. And there's even colorism in the black community. The lighter u are the more prettier ur considered to be and vice versa for dark skin. It's horrible

[VaIiant]

@LuvAsh I lived in a city east of Los Angeles. Didn’t only apply to (black) light skins either, at my HS one of the girls considered the most beautiful was very dark. Though I do understand it’s this way for a lot of US cities.

[LuvAsh]

I personally think that all races of women are beautiful. I only have an issue when someone uplifts ome race and bashes the other. In this case, I am not bashing anyone bc I'm not like that anyways.
I understand where u are coming from but the purpose of this Mytake was to uplift the self esteem of black women. I was actually thinking about making a Mytake of all cultures BUT I thought that this was well needed so I decided to do this.
I might still do all cultures tho. I just don't want do it and not have enough info on each culture so I will have to do research on everything😊😊

[VaIiant]

Yeah, that’s why I didn’t hate, since you weren’t bashing the rest. I just personally believe the best way to put racism behind our generation is to stop discussing segregation constantly, but I think some of the most beautiful women I’ve seen are black. I think a lot of people would agree

[JDavid25]

"I’m all for lifting up black women, but Asian/Hispanics and etc are also rarely lifted up either." Yes they are.. LOL.. They are statistically label as the least desirable race of women.. They don't the brunt of disrespect.. People still see Latina's spicy attitude as sexy, while "Black" women's is manly and imtimindatin.. "Asian" women are seen as the most feminine type of women.. People flock to South American and Asian countries just for the women alone.. Not to mention "Asian" and "White" women are seen by the media as feminine and sexy.. Cmon nah..

[VaIiant]

@JDavid25 oh, it’s you. You already know I do not engage with you because of your attitude and you tend to resort to insults, so have a good day :)

[JDavid25]

@Valiant, I would like to know when have I ever resorted to insults? We hardly even talk, and the times we did, I never have an attitude, and I don't insult people...

[JDavid25]

My bad I tagged somebody I didn't mean to.. But, I would like to know when have I ever resorted to insults? We hardly even talk, and the times we did, I never have an attitude, and I don't insult people... And you even answered my question and I didn't insult you.. So I'm wonderin where you gettin this from..

[VaIiant]

@JDavid25 we’ve talked many times and you just insult people🤷‍♀️

[JDavid25]

No we haven't.. Before last week I haven't seen you in months.. And before today or yesterday I haven't talked to you since last year.. And I don't insult people.. Only if they annoy me enough to make me say somethin.. I always come wit facts, or try to twist they word back on them..

[Afrochick]

Oh lord.
Non-black women really test my patience some days. As if the media and society in general doesn't put y'all on a pedestal already.

[VaIiant]

@Afrochick i said this on the one written for white women too- also saying “all non black women test my patience” is racist, LOL. It’s not like black women are some better species. I believe every woman should be lifted up regardless of race.

[meenarai]

Anyone can have those qualities.

[Secretgardenblood]

Good take
