Why Black Women Are Hypersexualized & White Women Are Protected (The Double Standard)

Added: 2026-05-09

[00:00:00]Okay y'all, let's talk about the Megan the Stallion meme that we have been seeing going around on social media.

[00:00:05]First of all, I'm not going to post it here because I think that's in poor taste and I think people are using that as clickbait. But I do want to have a larger conversation because the what I want to talk about is not even about Clay and Megan. Um what I want to talk about is how you very clearly view women uh differently based on their race or uh ethnicity. So, um, there's a meme going around of Megan the Stallion and all of her presumed sexual partners. It's very distasteful. It's very vulgar. Um, and someone asked, "Well, where is Taylor Swift's meme?" Because Taylor Swift has been linked to a lot of different partners as well. And this is the meme that they're referencing. Now, obviously, this meme is very light. You know, it's it's just, oh, these are some people that she's been linked to.

[00:00:51]Nobody's in a compromising position. It doesn't say anything about her being a or a or it doesn't over sexualize her in any way. However, that's exactly what people were doing with the Megan the Stafia meme. And so the problem with this is that particularly men are suggesting that Megan the Stallion deserves less because her music is vulgar or because she is scantily clad during her performances or because she has had multiple sex partners. Um when in fact it just is not a big it's just not as big of a deal for other white women, you know, non-black women I should say. Um, and so this this part is what really frustrated me because y'all want black women to accept the bare minimum because y'all think that well, first of all, I think society has conditioned us to believe that black women deserve less or the only type of love they should be expecting is a struggle of. So, he's going to cheat.

[00:01:56]Don't worry about fidelity. You know, he's going to cheat. He might not have no money, so you got to be broke. You know, if he do have money, he's gonna cheat. Like, we should never expect anything from people because we are black women. Take what you can get and just be happy with it. And that is the mentality that's a problem for me because we see with these memes, we see two very different depictions of these women.

[00:02:22]Taylor Swift is America sweetheart. And and this is not I'm not coming for Taylor Swift, okay? I'm coming for the ideology that says that black women are more sexual, you know, overly sexualizing us, um, and deeming us as less worthy of fair treatment or respect because of this perceived hypersexuality.

[00:02:44]And we know this.

[00:02:47]I can't all the way tie it together. I'm going to do some more research, but I know for a fact this has something to do with slavery. I just know I just know that it does because obviously you what the slave masters were doing were raping us and breeding with us and at times the wives of the slave masters will be very jealous and call you know it's that same dynamic of if you got a man in the house who's flirting with your daughter and something like that and you instead of him being checked for being a piece of you tell your daughter to put on more clothes or don't dress like this around him and don't talk to him and don't look like we have con we have focused our entire efforts on policing what women do to ward off unwanted advances from sexual predators.

[00:03:36]That is the conversation that we need to be having. How black women are seen as super sexual beings and therefore less deserving of autonomy or their own personal rights. So, I wanted to have this conversation because I've seen this throughout my entire life. And I know I know y'all waiting on me to laugh and tell somebody to go to hell, but it's really the patriarchy. The patriarchy has to go to hell. Okay?

[00:04:00]Everybody who is actively furthering these agendas that uh you know, and I'm speaking from the experience of black women. Obviously women in general are impacted, you know, because of the effects of the patriarchy, but black women specifically, we see we we're a double minority and we are quite literally the bottom of the totem pole in this country. most disrespected, the least cared for, the least acknowledged when it comes to food, health care, child care, uh reproductive rights, salary, compensation, uh opportunities in general, you know, in the job market, housing access, um like all of these things play a part um in the in the keeping us down, right, in the dismissal of black women from society. Yet people have also said, "Well, if you ever get lost in public, make sure you look for a black woman.

[00:04:58]They're the safest ones." Listen to Go to hell. Go to hell. Because that too comes from slavery. White women not wanting to care for their children. Do y'all know why child services was invented? Do you know why child services was created? Because white women were literally killing their children. They had no idea how to care for them after slavery ended. Look it up. You can Google this.

[00:05:20]And I'm not, this is not I know people see my content and they're like, "Well, you're attacking men and you're attacking white people." No, I'm attacking the system that allows you to continue to lord your whiteness over people that don't look like you, knowing that you have had certain financial and uh geographical, you know, um benefits and and and advantages.

[00:05:49]I mean, it's 2026. We have to stop saying that racism doesn't exist, which is I'm glad I'm glad that we're talking about this because this ties directly into uh the Supreme Court's decision concerning the Voting Rights Act of uh 1965, basically saying if you can't prove it's racist, uh then, you know, we we can't call it discrimination. And so now they're they're allowing these these districts to redraw their maps to exclude people of color. So that Republicans are always the majority which means that no matter how connected and unified we become we cannot get ahead.

[00:06:23]And that speaks directly to the situation with Megan the Stallion and the juosition between her her meme and Taylor Swift's meme. No matter how successful, how beautiful, how smart, Megan the Stallion has a Megan the Stallion has a degree, y'all. She owns a food restaurant franchise. She's literally on Broadway. She's a multi-platinum rap artist. She has all these accomplishments and all these accolades tied to her name and she still know better than the meme that people put out about her or the men that she slept with.

[00:06:57]It's just not the same for white people.

[00:06:59]It's not. We know this because our president is a pedophile and a rapist and his friends are pedophiles and rapists. So, black people are not held to the same standard as white people.

[00:07:09]And that's the point that I'm trying to make. the the pro the conversation is not about Me the Stallion. The conversation is about how black women are overly scrutinized and overly um overly criticized uh for things that everyone else just is allowed to do. Women are allowed to live their lives. They can be moms. They cannot be moms. They can be on food stamps or not. They can go to school or not. They can be in prison or not. And they're still given the benefit of the doubt as long as they're white.

[00:07:40]So, let me know what y'all think about that in the comments. I think the I think the meme was disgusting just outright. But I want to have a larger conversation about how we are hypersexualizing our our girls because even like when women start developing breasts, we are taught to cover our bodies and we're taught to be ashamed.

[00:07:58]And I think that that is a huge problem.

[00:08:01]Young girls are not taught how to date.

[00:08:03]We're taught to stay away from boys. And then when we're old enough to be around boys, you're rushing us down the aisle to get married or you're rushing us to have a baby because our eggs are going to dry up. Like, patriarchy helps no one. Men are literally spiraling out, killing each other and killing women left and right because they feel like they have no resources because society has told them to suck it up and be a man. Y'all did that.

[00:08:27]Well, I wish people cared more about our mental health. You need to care.

[00:08:32]You need to go to therapy. It's not my job to care about your mental health.

[00:08:35]It's your mental health. That's like me trying to fix your insecurities. These are securities in you. These are insecurities in you. So hopefully this made sense. I know I be rant and raving a lot, but y'all absolutely have to go to hell. The people that are that are sending that meme around and especially using it for content, I don't think that that's right. Megan is dealing with enough and she's already ended her uh her stint on Broadway. I don't like that. I wish that she would have continued doing it, but you know, things happen and uh you know, people need to be allowed to heal in the spaces where they feel is is most beneficial for them. So, thank y'all for watching. Um and if you disagree with this and you're not a black woman particularly, you can go to hell. Okay? [laughter] Go right on there.
