Problem #27: THOT culture - trashy, trendy or too far?

from I Got Problems! · host Sandra & Co.

Urban Dictionary definition of Thot: It can stand for 'That Hoe Over There'; "A thot is usually active on social media especially instagram and Snapchat (and now only fans). On instagram she can be found in pictures of her in the dog filter and is usually half naked. On Snapchat she is most likely posting videos of her obnoxiously lip syncing to rap songs, while playing with her hair, thinking she looks like Kylie Jenner." These type of definitions have been associated with women who have chosen to publicly embrace their sexuality which makes them vulnerable to judgements and maltreatments, meanwhile these same actions exhibited have been welcomed in the hip-hop community amongst male rappers without much pushback. Let's touch on the double standards real quick and dissect some raunchy lyrics.  Resources: How to support BLM: https://www.timeout.com/things-to-do/how-to-support-black-lives-matter Therapy Sources: Primary Care Physician, IG: @Betterhelp, Employee assistance programs and therapyforblackgirls.com BetterHelp is free for 1 month not just 1 week specifically with our link: https://www.betterhelp.com/thoughtfulhuman/ Derogatory Rap lyrics: https://www.complex.com/music/2013/03/the-50-grossest-rap-lyrics/king-gordy-mr-187 Psychology today: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/catching-homelessness/201806/prostitution-exploitation-not-work?amp Mental health: https://www.mhanational.org/31-tips-boost-your-mental-health #ENDSARS and other Protest in Africa: https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/25/africa/nigeria-end-sars-protests-analysis-intl/index.html Socials: Interact with us!
