Y.A.? YNOT! Ok so here's why not:1.) Pretty dresses; 2.) fellatio; 3.) ????Treatise on being "interesting looking".Woman as object --> woman as subject.(Kristy's going to Smith, not Wellesley.)Babysitting over 18 = whoring minus the sex.The do's and don'ts of writing secret, anonymous no...

    9 - 8-BALL CHICKS by Gini Sikes

    Rony J. (@idontreadthis // @ronyphat) and Amanda B. (@amandajbermudez // @a.j.bermudez) do '90s nostalgia all wrong by focusing on the women-on-society's-fringes part of the decade with Gini Sikes's portrait of girls in urban gangs, 8-BALL CHICKS. What does this view of the years-we-all-love-to-forget-the-bad-parts-of have to show us?"I'll be there for you" has a few socio-economic asterisks!Girls (literal girls, lol) in gangs have the advantage over boys in gangs cause the cops overlook them...

    8 - 100 AMAZING FACTS ABOUT THE NEGRO by Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
