Pure BS!  I’m sure you ladies heard about the blogger over at Psychology Today who had the audacity to try to pass his racial bias off as science.  The title of the blog post is “Why Are Black Women Less Physically Attractive Than Other Women? Why black women, but not black men?”. Psychology Today has since taken the post down.  I wrote about it on my other blog (There is a link to the article there so you can read for yourself), but since this blog is dedicated to beauty I thought it would be fitting to post a note about it.

I’d love to know what you ladies think about this.   Personally, I’m outraged.  Not surprised, but outraged.  Black women birth black babies and further the black race.  Thus, “they” must attack, berate, and abuse us in the media or otherwise.  Also, there is also a long history of psychology research focusing on the suggested inferiority of Black people.  History has taught us to know racist and eugenic talk from the psychological community a mile a way.
