Although I know that Mary Jane wants Black love, wants Black babies (?) and just overall wants the Black experience and what point does she allows herself to be opened to the possibility of dating ‘other’? In this episode MJ and the white guy she’s been canoodling with have actually made it outside, and in spaces with other people, but of course shit goes to the left, when a Black couple frowns upon her interaction with said white man. Even though in that scene, their physical interaction was very minor, just a hug, but the judgment of these random folk makes you question everything happening between you and this man? I do know race is a tricky thing, especially as a person who has dated other, but why do we have to complicate it? He likes you, you like him, is it wasting time if the possibility is there? I get that he won’t always understand the ‘inside’ jokes of Black folk, and the full experience of being a Black woman, but there wasn’t a way to see where the relationship could’ve went?
Well, Hmm.
