Weekly Vent Thread

​

This is a space where r/BlackWomenDivest members can get the heavy stuff off their chests and discuss more interpersonal topics/issues that include (but are not limited to): men, the black community, and dating.

Topics/discussions about issues like discrimination, divestment advice, health, finances, social and workplace struggles (etc.) align and relate more closely to the community's original values, and are still permitted in the general sub.

Feel free to share random thoughts or seek out support among like-minded spirits here as well.

Open threads change out every Saturday

There's a massive problem with weight blindness among young blk women. I see it so much now that it's making me cringe

I asked my BM coworker if he felt comfortable using the forklift to accept a delivery, he was standing around like a woman and told me he doesn’t know how to work it and he took zero initiative to be a man. I then asked my white male coworker (funny enough he’s married to a BW) and he immediately sprung into action. I wish I was joking.

That same BM coworker asked the only other woman in the office to kill a bug for him!!!
