Kim K is Naked Again and I'm conflicted

 Well, well, well my girl Kim Kardashian West is showing her goodies to the world once again. Damn, that chick is hella fine. Kanye West is a lucky man. That was my first reaction when I saw her latest nude picture. Then I thought, "Why did she do that again?" We've all seen her lady bits on the cover of Paper Magazine, then when she was pregnant with Saint West, then again for a magazine called LOVE I believe, and now this. Kim we get it you are beautiful, hot, gorgeous, smoking. Man if I had a body like that I know I'd be tempted to show a little skin. (Ok ladies don't curl you noses at me. Be real. In private we all admit we'd do a little strip tease if we had bodies like the Kardashians.


I am a good girl, but I also appreciate the human form. God is amazing. Look how many shapes, sizes, and colors He has made. I have loved fat men, short men, skinny men, tall men, Indian men, white men, black men, Mexican men, Puerto Rican men. I have dated the rainbow of brothas. Before you judge, understand I had relationships with every one of these men I mentioned. I am 31, and I've been blessed to be loved by several good men. Here's my point: when I get married I will carry myself differently. Right now I am single and free. If I want to wear a smoking hot dress, get a tattoo, dance like Beyonce with any guy in the club that is my prerogative.  As long as I am safe, respectful, and praising God's word I don't see the problem. But, Kim is married. Doesn't the bible say once you get married your body is for your husband? Should we be seeing what Kanye sees every night? Doesn't that somehow devalue her body for her husband? I am not judging I'm just posing questions.

Well once Kim posted her picture to Twitter (it is not recent) social media exploded. Once again, we were debating whether a mother, and a wife should be posing nude. I also nodded my head when I saw it. Bette Midler responded to the hoopla with a clever joke. Click here for Bette Midler's response to Kim's pic . Well being the boss ass chick she is Kim clapped back. Click here for  Kim's response . I have to give it to these ladies it was good banter. I love a good trash talking session. (God I miss the attitude era of WWE) Kim didn't stop there. Some people are saying Kanye hijacked her Twitter. I'm not sure I just find the whole thing amusing.


This is the picture everyone is so mad about. Look, I have no particular stance on this, I can see both sides. On one hand I agree with Bette Midler. It's like come on Kim do something different. We know you are hot, but you are more than your body. You have a platform to help millions. How are you using it? Let us see that? That would be refreshing. On the other hand, I understand Kim West's feelings of liberation. It has to be freeing to say, "This is me. Love it or leave it." Some will say she makes her a sex object but wasn't that already the case. Because of the sex tape Kim will always be viewed as a sex object to men. And, on some level I understand.

I am not being cocky here, but since I gained weight and became plus size men will not stop looking at me. They undress me with their eyes at the doctor's office, they wink at me at bars, they lick their lips when I bend over or lean across a table. I did not ask for this, But, with great power comes great responsibility. Kidding lol. . I am a humble, modest girl. I want a man who will spit game to me romantic like. A gentleman who is not just after me to get into the sheets. I am a sex object to some men and it's out my control. So is Kim saying she is owning her body, taking it back, maintaining her own sexy? I don't know but I understand how it feels on some level. Granted I am not a model, or paid millions ( cause we know this was a publicity stunt. It got her name back in the news) to show my body, but I have felt like an object to men. I'd like to take back my body too. Turn myself from object to girlfriend to wife. But I feel God is teaching me something in all of this. What it is I am not sure.

I also feel people don't want women to own their sexuality. Look at Amber Rose. She is a woman who oozes sex appeal. Because she dared to say she loved sex and men we slut shamed her. Why because she enjoys something people do every day in and out of wedlock. Or look at what happened to that girl from Duke University Belle  Knox.
She was a Duke university student who started working in porn to raise money for college. (Yes, college is that expensive now) She picked a secret identity to protect herself.  Her secret identity was exposed, her story went national, and she almost lost everything. All because she dated to own her sexuality. Read her story, and you'll see we are not as sexually liberated as we proclaim. I do not like the word slut, whore, or thot. Come men can play around like this and be rewarded and we are scolded? It is a double standard. Just marinate on that.

Again I have no dog in this fight. I am just expressing some feelings and frustration I have about sexuality. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts. Let's have a respectful spirited debate on the topic of women's bodies. Below are two pictures I think are sexy, and one is me in a Kardashian dress I can't wait to fit into again.
