BlasianBytch.com is 2 Today!!<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s been a hell of a year. \u00a0Sometimes it feels completely unreal how this year has been, it was like my life was a Korean drama, only with a lot more esteemed authors, facials and porn actresses. \u00a0At the start of this year I was failed freelancer\u00a0slumming\u00a0it on my bro’s broken couch, now 356 days later I’m typing this on the same shitty laptop- but in my own apartment where I sleep on a bed every night, in a room with a door. \u00a0That might sound mundane as shit to you but to me its somewhat of a\u00a0miracle.<\/p>\n

In these 52 weeks, I had so many proud moments that I got to share with you. \u00a0Of course there was Banana 2<\/a>. Which I still can’t\u00a0believe\u00a0wasn’t a\u00a0hallucination , I got to shake hands and sit and talk with people that I only read about. It lead me to make a forum and completely fail at making a Blasian salon – but I was able to be visible enough to find people that were a lot better at it than me<\/a>. So I saw it as a huge victory. \u00a0Of course I have my regrets about that\u00a0conference\u00a0 as well. I really wish I didn’t let prime teachable moments slip away.<\/p>\n

Right before Banana 2 I wrote a post about the love\/hate relationship I have with my big Black ass. \u00a0I thought I made it clear that its pretty shitty to treat a woman like her highest\u00a0achievement are her buttcheeks. You would think a bunch of social activists would have picked on that not so subtle message. NOPE, 3 people asked to take pictures…with my ASS. They came up to me not to talk about the panel I was on- but just wanted to gawk at my booty.\u00a0Never mind\u00a0that I was the only Black identified woman there,\u00a0never mind\u00a0that that post was talking about how hopeless that kind of thing makes me as a Black woman feel. \u00a0Out of fear of being an “Angry Black Woman” I was all demure smiles but truth be told I out of all the times I’ve been in dingy strip parties, been grabbed.\u00a0manhandled\u00a0or had bills shoved where bills have no business being shoved- that moment when that woman asked me to turn around so she can take a picture with my butt is the most degrading. \u00a0I regret not expressing that to her.<\/p>\n

When I finally worked up the courage to introduce myself to Phil Yu of Angry Asian Man , at the\u00a0Banana 2 after party, he gleefully showed me a picture of a woman staring\u00a0pensively\u00a0 at a picture of my bum. Very hard to chit chat, when you’re already so nervous you want to vomit and now you feel like, “oh , great I’m just a joke to them.” When I got back to my hotel I was going to delete the post- but then someone commented on my facebook page to talk about how cathartic the post was for her. \u00a0So yeah, I know for a lot of people out there I am just \u00a0some dumb whore but it was up to me to show them that there’s something past the ass. \u00a0If there is any goal in mind for BlasianBytch.com its to showcase a sexual being of color as a intellectual being. \u00a0My butt shenanigans didn’t completely sour my Banana 2 experience, but it sure as shit made me feel more dejected than any guy pouring liquor on my tits. \u00a0I should have made that clear , even if it would mean being the “debbie downer”.\u00a0 I could have also refrained from deep throating a dildo in front of one of my favorite authors but hey no one’s perfect.<\/p>\n
