Welcome to the very first installment of Teach Me How To Love You Better. This is a segment presented by Dergobj and Change The Subject. The purpose of this is to create a safe space for women to keep it real with men. But the beauty of this is that men are NOT being argumentative in this space. We are actually here to listen, encourage, and support our queens in a conducive way. And in turn, we learn something about the women we intend to love. Our first host is a queen by the name of Erica Butler. She has branded herself and a movement called The Brown Girl Experience. This woman is an incredible mind who shared so many things about herself, her sisters, and the honorable men she has encountered in life. We spoke on so many subjects...like her experiences with having a chronic illness called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). She talked dating men with a chronic illness, and how it effects her relationships with men. And then...we got into her constructive criticisms of men. Luckily for men...it wasn't as harsh as we thought.The focal point of Erica's views were centered around Identity. How men tend to place margins on women with various excuses and tactics that actually have nothing to do with them. She even addresses things that women do to women, in terms of identity. The conversation was very healthy and informative...and Erica does an exceptional job at getting her points across without making men or women feel uncomfortable or persecuted (which she also talked about as well)...There are so many great points in this hour long installment. I truly hope that the people enjoy this....and that this is a step in the right direction for reconnecting and communication between men and women. Without further ado...here is Lesson 1: Identity by Erica Butler "The Brown Girl"
