Why I Don’t Pedestalize Black Men or ANY Race of Man

TW: I will be discussing a number of TRIGGERING topics so please read when you are in the right frame of mind & please read to the end so you can get the full gist of my mindset.

In this post, I will be discussing how I became a Black Woman who rejected her conditioning and became a woman who doesn’t value men based on race. Just to put it out there, I don’t believe in Black Women pedestaling any race of men as a group or when it comes to choosing a partner as I believe that there are so many more important factors to consider when seeking a husband.

Why Most Black Women End Up Being Picked Last on Love Island

I was inspired to write this blog post because of an Instagram video I saw by the UK based cultural commentator Zeze Millz. In the video, she is questioning why the producers of Love Island don’t send men into the villas that find Black Women attractive? (because they clearly exist).

Before discussing the topic at hand, I would like to put a disclaimer that we are obviously not talking about every single Black Woman that has touched the villa but we do see some patterns in terms of being picked last especially during the 1^st episode. Although I am UK based, I am sure that viewers from the US, Australia and South Africa will be interested in my conclusion.
