Let Me Reiterate...I'm Not A Feminist...
I'm for women being better women for the sake of bettering women.
Bitchfaces, I’ve said it more than once, and y’all know how I hate to repeat myself. I’m not a feminist. We all know this. Right off rip, my offensive ass trap playlist would get me tossed from all Lillith related affairs.
I don’t do many things approved by the movement, but I do a lot of shit that they don’t frown upon. Much like the other affiliations I have, it’s probably best to not be photographed with me, lest that shit come back and bite you in the ass one day.
Let’s be serious. We all know what the fuck I am.
However, it has never been my stance to hate men. I’m not with it, that’s wasting my fucking time. It is my position to elevate women. In any way, shape, form, or fashion. Because we need that. Because it doesn’t matter who has the yoke, if one of us is still shackled, baby, we all are. Which leads me to today.
In my messages, Emiie, another former Fearless, She Wrote writer. I’m not sure if y’all are aware, but the publication disbanded earlier in the year. A shame, they really did a great job. Back to the lecture at hand though.
Emiie says the hellos, we used to write for Fearless, etc. She then says she misses the feel and community and substance of the publication, and it would be great to get that back. Would I like to collaborate on this new publication?
I say, “sis, all day, every day.”
I ask where she’s at with it. She just brainstormed it in bed last night, which made me laugh because I do the same shit. So I said, “what can I do?”
Edit submissions. And name the thing.
Ok. So, anyway. Looks like I’ll be an editor on the new pro-women publication on Medium. 90% sure I have a name for the thing also. 95, probably. Point being, we’re gonna fire this thing up this month.
I know that I have several women people here who are excellent writers. I know because I read your shit, sis, don’t try to deny it now. So I anticipate reading some submissions from y’all, because I would genuinely love the support on this. My dudes here too. It’s not discriminatory, we’re with that equality shit.
As y’all know, it took me years to build the Bitchface readership, then I had that long pause, and we’re still steering out of the skid. However, Emiie is pretty strong in the profem crowd over there, as am I, and I see this coming out hard like 8ball and MJG in 1992.
I don’t know if y’all remember, but the Weinstein piece I did was published on Fearless. That column has been rerun like 20 times since then, so it did some things for me, and I appreciated those ladies for that boost. Y’all know I have no problem helping a bitch up by her belt loops the same way those ladies did for me.
I’ll link it here and drop a submission box somewhere on this joint so y’all can come holler at your girl. Until then, holler at your girl here. Y’all know I have the chat here now. It’s like I’m saying fuck to you in real time, and that’s a good way to start your fucking day.
Bitchface lines are open, talk at me.
I'll never get tired of congratulating you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 and I look forward to more taking names and kicking ass. I hope you are damn proud of yourself 💖
You’ll fill the shoes and raise those heels two inches higher. I wave my well manicured hand in love and respect
