“Some Words Of Wisdom From The Queen”

The ReadyWriter

Not me but Queen Latifah, recently sat down with Sister2Sister magazine for an in-depth interview and discussed what make women sexy.

“I just like ladies who have class. Period,” she said, “and if it’s ‘T and A’ you’re sellin,’ that’s fine, as long as that’s what you’re selling. But you don’t have to show everything, you know?”

“You can hold some back and just be yourself and let your personality shine and let your individuality show. To me, that’s sexier. A confident woman is a sexy woman, in my opinion. And I think guys find that to be the same way.”

You don’t have to show everything; you don’t have to put it all out there to attract a guy. Because what kind of guy are you gonna attract? What is he really looking for? If you wanna be a booty call, I guess you can throw it all out there. But if you’re looking for a relationship with someone who respects you and respects things other than your body—your mind, your spirit, your personality, your smile—then you have to kind of exude that more so than just yo’ booty and yo’ titties.

I hope the Queen’s words of wisdom don’t fall on deaf ears, because some of these heifers today, leave absolutely nothing to the imagination. Some women have no concept of self-respect because the black community in general promotes disrespect in all areas, from our lifestyles to our art and music.

  8. I actually know a chick (she’s a big girl who used to have really low self-esteem) who has idolized the Queen for many years and she still doesn’t want to believe that she is gay…I think there may be others who don’t WANT to believe the obvious as well…

      I agree, and I honestly could care less if she was gay. She appears to be gay for sure, but she doesn’t owe anyone any explanations about her lifestyle…if she EVER comes out I think it will be when she’s much older and pretty much settling down into the cooling off of her career. She knows that she’s black and that she’s a woman, so being a black gay woman could be bad for her money (in this world we live in). I respect her hustle and will continue to support her work…

    Tra, I was just thinking about what you said about young ladies when we have college girls and military women posing for booty shots talking about they want to be “models” you know things have taken a turn in a whole other direction. They took their intelligence and respectablilty while aspiring to be like video hoes at the same time.

    It’s very interesting.

    It doesn’t take showing you’re ASS to show that you are sexy, it’s more to that. I always say personality and confidence makes a beautiful woman but in today’s society your butt and titties is all one sees and don’t get me wrong you are suppose to dress to impress but showing to much only shows that you lack confidence and you need all eyes on you just to make you sure of yourself and that’s not a good look. just my opinion.

        Well let’s be real here, I’ve always thought she had a very pretty face, and I personally know men that think Queen Latifah is a beautiful big chick, and there ARE a nice population of men who prefere larger women… so let’s be fair and balanced here….

        But yes, you are correct. Just like there are some people allergic to water, there are some men that “prefer” larger women. I think for a lot of these guys, this “preference” originates due to a lack of other options.

      6. Some people need to understand that ‘fat’ or ‘big’ doesn’t automatically equal out to ill-proportionate or ugly. My friend in college didn’t care for chicks under a size 12, but they also all had nice shapely curves and beautiful faces…

        __________________________________

        Why do black women always want to compare extremes to fat as if there is no other alternative? You know there is a lot of room between fat and skinny. Once a man is married he’s probably more willing to accept weight gained gradually over a period of time. At a minimum ladies. don’t gain weight until you have the man.

  30. What’s attractive to the Lord is women who obey His commandments.

    Rom 1:22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

    Rom 1:23 and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures.

    Rom 1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them
    .
    Rom 1:25 For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

    Rom 1:26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,

    Rom 1:27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

    Rom 1:28 And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper,

    Rom 1:29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; {they are} gossips,

    Rom 1:30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,

    Rom 1:31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful;

    Rom 1:32 and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.

      If u like your own sex then there is something wrong with you. Just like if you sleep with cows. It’s not illegal but biologically it makes zero sense. It should be considered a mental disease in my opinion so these people shouldn’t be mad if someone says you are sick.

    I also agree with her in the sense that you don’t have to do all of that. If a man is a attracted to you he is just attracted to you and you don’t need to show everything that is not meant for the whole world to see.
