That’s the sort of question some black women may be asking themselves, a Rutgers University professor suggested during a recent appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Network. Although, more accurately, the problem may be the stress and anxiety caused by the policies than the policies themselves, Brittney Cooper, who teaches gender studies at the New Jersey-based university, said on a recent episode of “Black Women OWN the Conversation.”

This is the one where the stress caused by white men literally changes the way that black women burn calories it’s not the 80% absentee fatherhood rate of black men, it’s not the stresses of single motherhood, it’s Trump and racism of white men.

MMMMMHMMMMMM

"Trump's policies increasing visibility of latent mental illness, making it easier to treat if the subjects ever accept the diagnosis"

Ever notice that when you look at "soul food" what you see mostly is a traditional Southern diet? Fried foods, corn bread, etc... Now look at the Southern states, and you see higher obesity rates than the rest of the country in general among all races. Does it not stand to reason that the reason so many black folks are obese in America is because their roots are in the South?

IQ, high time preference, and impulse control is the culprit.

This is her....



Apparently the Trump presidency has been extra brutal on her.

ETA: here she is in 2015 so it looks like the Obama presidency wasn’t too kind to her either...

How do they explain all the black women that were fat during Obama’s presidency?

It’s not Trump’s policies, it’s a shitass diet and a glutinous attitude. Anyone whose ever waited tables for a significant period of time knows what I’m talking about. It’s the dumping of raw sugar in already sugary soft drinks or in a glass of water or the pounding down of 7 or 8 strawberry lemonades. It’s ordering the biggest steak on the menu with 3 extra sides and extra extra everything.

I am approaching 60 years old, and a lot of black women have been obese for as long as I can remember.

Again, how can it be from racism if it does not effect black males. BM, WM, WF all have the same levels of obesity. BF obviously have something else going on with their diets that has nothing to do with racism.
