I generally use this journal for icon scouting, my main journal is over on livejournal.com.
In any case, here is a list of muses I play, in case I ever flounce over here. (IT'S THE ICON SPACE, IS THAT AMAZING OR WHAT.)

I need to take a break from the internet, you guys. Stuff has been building up and up and just becoming too stressful for me. See you eventually.

“Successful, Black And Lonely” by Nadra Kareem.
But so prevalent is the idea that black women can’t find a man because they’re too aggressive that an Asian American woman I know actually repeated this stereotype verbatim to me. I was astonished, not only because I found the statement racist and sexist but because she’d completely overlooked her own singleness. And that’s exactly my problem with these types of articles. I can’t recall ever reading an article about lonely Asian women or lonely Latinas. But these women exist, too.
There are worse racist representations out there in books and movies--so why do is this one particularly aggravating to me? I think it might be because like the 'chick flicks' that are so sexist it hurts, this kind of ridiculous stereotype is so accepted in our culture they're making a movie out of it.
