mmm

beauty is in imperfection..

let that sink in.

Those 4 words arethe truest i've ever read.



on another note.
since reading and hearing about the much publicized rihanna/ chris brown fate case.
Of course, i had to put alittle imput into it.
not for the sake of media, and such...
but for the sake of women.


After hearing numerous stories about the domestic violence case that has shocked the nation and rocked the media, Rihanna seems to have gone back to her former boyfriend Chris Brown. Although the reports and stories of the physical and vocal altercations that took place between the couple differ variously, they all have the same theme evident: domestic violence. After keeping a slow but steady follow up through Perez Hilton, and the multiple other celebrities who have taken the liberty to speak for and on behalf of Rihanna, it is clear that this issue is much bigger than just a heated argument between two of Hollywood’s hottest lovebirds. Indeed embedded underneath the media’s coverage, and clearly evident on Rihanna’s face, is the confirmation that she like many other women in the U.S and around the world are physically abused by their husbands/ boyfriends. As a woman who holds a substantial amount of power on women across the world, as well as the youth of today, what is she telling us by showing that she has willingly gone back to Brown after the way she was treated both physically and mentally? One in five teens reports being physically or sexually abused by a partner between the ages of 16-24. Oprah Winfrey commented on the spectacle, voicing her opinion and stating that if violence has occurred once, it WILL occurr again; she recently did a special show focused on domestic violence and the physically and emotionally disturbing effects it has on the victims of it. Music is popularized in America, and taken in literal terms…so what happens when one of the biggest pop stars in America, goes back to a boyfriend who has been violent and abusive with her? It sets the idea and standard that the kind of treatment she received is acceptable. He beat her face to a pulp, and expects to be given mercy after buying her jewelry and such as both an “im guilty and sorry” gift and a “birthday gift.” Rihanna must have some kind low self respect and a crazy case of “Disturbia,” if she tolerate that kind of treatment from anyone, including the good looking Chris Brown. The looks cant heal the bruises, and the jewelry isn’t gonna mend a relationship. Like Katie Couric stated on CBS “Love isn’t supposed to hurt, except when someone breaks your heart”… not your face.
