Wordless Wednesday: Idris Elba

This guy is hot and his English accent just makes him even more irresistible. He reminds me of a guy I dated for a few years, which is probably why I think he's so hot. I love the fact that he can rock a suit or beanie hat and look good either way.

 

Update: Planned Parenthood & Komen Foundation

Update: Planned Parent & Komen Foundation <– Click the link to see the full story on CNN.com

Through a lot of pressure, it took only a few days for the Susan G. Komen Foundation to back pedal and restore funding to Planned Parenthood. In fact, Planned Parenthood was able to raise more money because of their pulled grants. Over $400,000 was donated on their online website and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg pledged to match donations up to $250,000.

Tweets, Facebook and blogs (mine included) were up in arms about the pulling of funds from Planned Parenthood because they weren’t pro-life. I’m happy that they saw the pressure and everyone that was getting behind Planned Parenthood. I will be making a donation at my next appointment.

Planned Parenthood is Necessary

I have been a patient of Planned Parenthood, and not for an abortion as most would suspect. I am a young, single woman that is above income limits to qualify for subsidized health insurance. But Planned Parenthood offers health services for women. They even have better office hours than most doctors.

I was totally upset to hear about Susan G. Komen deciding to pull some of their monetary support from Planned Parenthood. The organization sees thousands of women every year that don’t have any other place to go.

Ban this, but not That?

I’m really confused by BET and Viacom’s recent banning of the Nicki Minaj song, Stupid Hoe. Now I’m not a fan of rap and really hate things that put down women. But what I don’t like is why this song is banned. They claim it to be too explicit. However, over the years men have been able to put much more explicit videos on the air.

Check out Nicki’s Video:

I don’t really care for the song, but I didn’t see anything much more explicit than you see in men’s rap videos. I did think I was going to have a seizure with all the flashing, but because of the quick flashes you weren’t really given a chance to see her ass.


This video, all seven minutes of it, features tons of scantily clad women, simulated sex acts and women with no clothes that had to be blurred out.
So after watching these videos, is it sexist that Viacom bans Nicki Minaj, but they fully supported Tip Drill and even produced the Ludacris video “Pussy Poppin”?

Facebook Confirmation

If you chose to put your information out on the web for anyone to see, I don’t think what I’m doing is stalking. I consider it more to be confirming facts. People can’t tell a whole lot of lies on facebook because they will quickly get called out. A lot of people are also very open, and even if you aren’t, someone on your friend list is bound to be.

First off, Facebook privacy is very ready to navigate. You can hide certain posts or pictures from friends. You can also change how your wall is viewed. If it’s not a friend, shut the wall down. Also hide your friends posts from outside people if you make public status updates. Its your friends that are most likely to give hints up on YOUR life.

Old College Try

Have you ever looked back in your dating life and wondered why you and a person didn’t work out? You are drawing blanks trying to remember what happened...

During college, I dated this guy Mike. We only went out a few times, but of course ended up having sex. Me, not being completely over my ex, of course sabotaged what ever relationship we could have had. Of course he remembers the exchange differently than I do. I guess I ended up cussing him out (this happens frequently, so I don’t remember, lol).

We remained friends through everything. And when we graduated, he came to my graduation party where we partied throughout the night. The guy that I was dating was there, but I was having more fun with Mike. He was always cute, and had the deepest dimples when he smiled.

Warning, this post is long!

Singing Saturday - Would You Mind

If you ask any guy these questions, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't mind. Especially when Janet Jackson is asking the question.

This song should definitely be on your playlist of songs to have sex to. Take a look at the lyrics and let me know what you think.
