When searching for pictures of women, there are hardly ever photos of Black women that come up in the image searches. Even searching for “beautiful black woman” or “black woman” or “black woman nude” or any assortment of search terms yields little to no results. We live in a White society. Women (or people) of color are so often ignored or not mentioned. One of the things about these posts that I have been doing that bothers me is the lack of women of color that are included. And it’s not that I don’t think about it, it’s just that the photos of them are so hard to find.
This post is dedicated to the beauty of Black women. The dark, smooth, velvety skin, the prominent features. I always find that there is a sort of strength and pride that radiates from within a Black woman. One that I cannot relate to, and one that I will never have nor will I ever understand. While I go through life as a minority, being both a woman and a member of the queer community, I am a white woman who looks straight. This means that, most of the time, I am insulated from discrimination. When you go through life every day as an “other,” you tend to develop a thick skin and you have life experiences that, while not enviable by any means, teach you lessons about humanity and courage.
These woman have a kind of beauty that I will never possess.
I'm Britni, a snarky bitch and generally awesome person. I write about sex, love, and bullshit. If sex-positivity, discussions about BDSM and kink, queer issues, and topics that are completely inappropriate by society's standards make you uncomfortable, then this blog is not for you.
Good Vibes

Thanks for representing my people! ;D
I don't quite get the artichoke holding picture. I love me some artichokes, but they aren't the sexiest of veggies to pose with… in my opinion.
gorgeous photos
i always wanted to be black. I've always been envious of their beauty.
A beautiful woman is a beautiful one, regardless of race, religion, orientation, or stance. Thanks for sharing those with us.
