5 Points of Empowerment

After living in New York City for 6 years I have met a lot of interesting people. One thing that really concerns me are the stories I've heard from my male friends about some of the poor actions we as women choose to make either for attention, love, or commitment. While listening to these stories I often wonder why women do things that degrade us and make us the laughing stock of male conversations from city to city. I understand that some women just LOVE to have sex...... I mean hey, it's human nature. There are also women, who use there sexual prowess to advance professionally. Then, there are those with no self worth, self value, or self love that use sexual encounters with men as a way to complete themselves. Regardless of which scenario relates to you, PLEASE keep these things in mind:


1.You may be prettier, smarter, thinner, thicker, richer, funnier, and more caring than the next woman, but you cannot make him want you. You may never understand why he may choose her over you but if he wants to leave, LET HIM GO!!! There is someone out there that will love you from your eyebrows to your pinky toes.


2.If you have to have sex, use discretion in your partner selection, a moment of pleasure can lead to a lifetime of pain.


3.It is always better to succeed in life on YOUR FEET. Not on YOUR BACK and /or KNEES. Even if you have to work harder to get further,succeed on your OWN MERIT.


4.You will never be made whole from any outside source. the feeling of completion MUST come from within.


5.NEVER settle for less than what you want, just for the sake of having. Set requirements, and stick to them. (Trust me..... it works!!!!)

  1. I agree with you. I appreciate your article. I got this article from the twitter post of Khleo Thomas. I think that as woman and as humans in general,we forget who we are. We become so accustom to whats around us that we have to start over and learn and understand why we are who we are. This article really reminded me of the fact that I AM a young,African-American woman. Thank You!

  2. I love this post. So many women depend on their looks to get them places in life. Sex is something that is supposed to be an intimate act with someone you have a connection with not used as a tool to get ahead. You have to live out your dreams and use your brain not your assets in order to accomplish your goals...This blog will definitely help out a lot of women! I look forward to reading more!
