It’s been approximately 49 hours and three phone charges since her ex-fiance has been sitting in his car in her driveway. She never thought she’d see the day that the entire world would be in the grips of a pandemic. She also never thought that like many others, the Coronavirus lockdown would reveal her relationship. Ladies, hold on to your …
Black Women Don’t Like Being Black!
~Shemeka Michelle Dafucq! I can’t take it anymore. Some people will say I have no right to stand in judgment of Lil’ Kim and her constant skin bleaching. However, it’s MY blog and I’ll express my opinion if I want to! I will not sit by quietly while I watch black women promote self-hate as being fabulous! I’m not sure …
My 11-year Old Daughter Wants Butt Implants
My daughter walked in my room and asked me how she looked. Then she hopped up on my bed so that she could see a full body image of herself in the mirror on my dresser. She had on jeggings that were obviously stuffed to make her butt look bigger. I laughed and shook my head but she was …
America’s Obsession with Being PHAT!
~Shemeka Michelle I’m not exactly sure when I first heard the word PHAT. It was probably in middle school used by a group of semi-cool (hahaha don’t try and come for me) guys that called themselves the Bally Boys. They made it very clear that it wasn’t the usual fat that meant overweight. There was no guessing that for …

My Hair is Natural and I Don’t Care that YOURS Isn’t!
I’ve been natural for three and a half years. I did what’s known as the Big Chop! Initially, I would try and convince others that they too could do it whenever I was approached with the statement “it looks good on you but I couldn’t do it”. I thought going natural was something they had really thought about doing …
#TBT: You Ain’t Real! (12/10/13)
~Shemeka Michelle Yes, I said it. As much as you claim to “keep it real”, nine times out of ten you probably don’t. As much as you claim to not care what others think, truth is you do. That’s why you alter your behavior in certain settings. Not in the sense of acting dignified but in perpetrating a fraud! You …
Yes, I SAID IT!
~Shemeka Michelle I have a friend that I love dearly. She really is one of the sweetest, most compassionate people I’ve ever met. However, her need for approval gets on my damn nerves!! She will dim her shine anytime someone else thinks it’s too bright. About a year ago…. maybe two, she met a man that she fell head over …
Let the church say AMEN!
~Shemeka Michelle Hear ye Hear ye! To all of you Christians feeling like you have arrived and deserve front row seats on the ride to heaven, here’s a special request, PLEASE MOVE TO THE BACK OF THE BUS!
