Just incase you didn't know, if you've got two X chromosomes and carry condoms in your purse or on your person--it means you're a whore. Clearly we of the gentler sex just can't catch a break. I don't need to get into the stats about HIV in our community, nor do I need to go on about unplanned pregnancy; what I do see is that it appears these obstacles are preferable to the idea of a black girl being smart about the one and only body she's going to have. "A Women carries condoms. A Lady doesn't. " The *cough cough* "logic" behind this nonsense is that XX shouldn't carry condoms because they should always know where they are getting sex from and that XY should take the lead when it comes to protecting themselves and their XX.
Some black boys think it's a bad idea that black girls choose to protect themselves.
Some black boys think that being a "lady" is better than being a woman.
Well, it seems to me that some black boys have a bone to pick with the Almighty, eh?
"Then the LORD made a woman..." NIV
"And the rib...he made a woman"
As far as I know, it doesn't say "Lady" in any translation, and you can check em'. Clearly God thinks it's better to be a woman, otherwise, He would have done things differently. Thou shalt protect thyself. That is all.
