Introducing The Other Woman

Within every woman lies her alter ego, the "Other Woman" you might say. This alter you steps in when your main self needs a break. She can be the housewife, the bitch, the sideline hoe. She is whatever you need her to be when desired. This Other Woman becomes the hidden you. She is not your representative that shakes your fellow board executives' hands. She is the you that makes your man talk in tongues in the bedroom, or the you that curses someone out in such a classy way that they don't even know their ass has been handed to them until the conversation is over. She is the you, you wish you could be the majority of the time if you didn't have so many responsibilities, or an image to uphold.

The Other Woman has always been apart of you. She has been growing in the deepest part of your being, awaiting opportunities to introduce herself to others. Sometimes she takes over without your permission, before you even know what’s happening. Sometimes you ask her to take control, only to hear later from others, "Girl what happened, you don't normally act like that?," or "That's a side of you I hardly ever see!" The Other Woman is like that sexy black dress you save for special occasions; your skin tight, too short, everybody can see your business dress. It's hidden behind all your professional attire, your forced minglings, your welcomed and unwelcomed responsibilities.

I discovered my black dress many years ago, and it has become a welcomed addition to my wardrobe. Here, I will wear this dress comfortably for everyone to observe, critique, and explore. I hope that as you all discover the many facets this Other Woman contains, you too will begin to discover the Other Woman within you, if you have not done so already. No topic is too risqué for my alter me and shouldn't be for you either. The Other Woman will explore topics around being a black professional, being single, being the "sideline hoe," being a mother, being an entrepreneur, to name a few. For the Other Woman can be all of these things and more. You will be able to ask questions that will hopefully caress the Other Woman out of yourself. Welcome to the world of the Other Woman, the world she creates and that is not created for her.
