Let me be serious: the young white woman writing this seems to be taking on the position of an ally. But her descriptions are reconfigurations of the inherently racist gaze-report of the colonialist anthropological observer. The heaving asses and thrusting pussies smack in its way of the admirable exoticized majesty of the bone through the nose as dictated by the lily white well-intentioned Africanist, whose own post-reformed European body don't move like that, at least not in public and not "inherently."
I'm not saying "racist"; but hit me as a little uncomfortable/cringy even though coming from a you-go-my-sista's ally pose.
Yeah I get that, just trying on a voice mostly, just a little annoyed with the loogit me I'm not racist because I'm appreciating black stuff overtones. If you flaunt the highground then you should have to also hear the critiques your position tends to support ....
@9 of course you are absolutely correct. But remember, she's one of the "good ones" and thus is "allowed" to have that perspective - not like some other mouth-breathers who want to "economically benefit" from the "culture" of brown people; but yeah, build your writing career on this that is beyond examination.
I'd say the colonial-religious zeal of the area is far more exploitative (and this all likely wouldn't exist without the repression.)
"shameful"
How?
"totes empowering"
Why wouldn't it be? There's a serious physicality to the daggering.
@5: "Why do some women pose like that in clothing like that?"
I don't get your question.

I am a typo machine.
If you like to build walls though, go for it. Not that I recommend it...
