    People stay studying black women, I see fat folk of all shades and colors on my campus, why don’t you “study” them.

    I don’t think it’s JUST black women. I think it has to do with culture. I currently live in Atlanta, and know plenty of people who don’t consider it a meal unless there is meat involved.

    Because we need meat on our “bones”?!? Nothing is wrong with meat; God made everything healthy and pure. It’s money hungry men who put all kinds of hormones and pesticides for the animals to eat hence making us sick once consumed. They are poisoning us slowing with their manufactured genetically altered food.
