I've had it ^ to here!!!

Okay, so I went to a party yesterday. Not the wisest decision because it was WACK...lol.. But I wanted to go out with some friends and just relax. At this party I saw the most horrible display of women I have seen thus far in Bloomington Normal. These young women were dressed as if they were going to perform at the local strip club. Black women and other women of color are always portrayed as wild and are usually oversexed. With that being said, they should be really cautious of how they portray themselves. I am not avid about a woman wanting to be and feel "sexy" and sometimes show a little bit of skin, but people need to understand where the line needs to be drawn. This reminds me of the article we read "I Met a Latin Girl named Maria", she talked about how she would always be portray a certain way regardless of how she dressed or acted. Because she was Latina she was always seen as sexy or provocative. We see examples of this everyday when we turn on our televisions and catch the latest rumpshaking videos. The women of color in the videos are to referred to as Video Vixen s or video Hoes, but when White women are in the video are called Video Models. If they are in the same videos doing the same degrading actions then why are two different terms used for women of color and White women. It is obvious that one term is more respectful and "sounds" better, so why not use Video Model for both?
