Welcome to r/blackgirls

All genders and races are welcome here and encouraged to join in the discussion, but this community was developed to cater to the interests/support of all the black girls who are also Redditors.

Here you will find anything and everything that may be of interest to the eclectic, black woman redditor.

Please take some time to review the guidelines before posting, and thank you for subscribing!

Here are some sample content suggestions: All relevant to blackgirls

  • Culture
  • Technology
  • Literature
  • Thought-provoking articles
  • Funny or silly comics/stories/articles/videos
  • Fashion and design
  • Hair product reviews, hair care tips/articles (relaxed and natural)
  • All things beauty related
  • Celebrity style and gossip
  • Music
  • Relationship articles/advice-including NSFW for the inner r/bg vixen
  • Whatever makes you smile

Most importantly self posts! The more dialogue and discussion in the community the better. Feel free to share self posts describing your personal experiences or issues involving race, gender, politics, entertainment, fashion and even the occasional rant about your day.

If you ever have any questions on acceptable content feel free to message the moderators.

I hope you all enjoy the community! xoxo XD-Bobbi

How to get banned from r/blackgirls

Absolutely no hateful, sexist, racist or flat out ignorant commentary allowed. Ladies if you see any users or submissions that violate these terms, please report the link and send message the moderator.

Any abusive behavior towards any poster will not be tolerated. This includes a general rule of respect and civility. Positivity is key to keeping r/blackgirls a fun community. Think before you respond negatively to someone and try to be courteous. A little sass and attitude is okay, but play nice ladies, and remember its just the Internet.

Objectification of any kind will not be tolerated in r/blackgirls (no matter how flattering or good your intentions are) im looking at you white boys of reddit who come here with the jungle fever: Yes yes..we already know we are beautiful, hot, amazing..ect, thank you, but any post asking about how to date us, how much you love us..ect. will be removed. Nothing personal, this rule is simply meant to keep our black girls safe and comfortable. Of course you are still welcome to contribute meaningful content and participate in the discussions, but if you only came here to hit on black girls, this is not the community for you. Allow me to point you in the direction of /r/womenofcolor NSFW - Cheers!

*Posts violating these policies will be removed. Any questions, comments, or suggestions regarding this subreddit may be directed to the moderator. *

I'm just happy to finally be in a community where I can count on there being at least 300 black people.

Assuming everyone who subscribes is black.

"I'm not racist, I'm subscribed to that black community." ;-)

I'm not, actually. I hope that doesn't skew statistics too much.

I'm not black either...I've ruined everything! :X

Ok. How about, "i'm just happy to finally be in a community where I can count on there being at least 200 black people." Different number, still happy as shit to be here.

And not all of us are black or female. I'm a black male but I like this space.

I just figured out about there were at least 20 posts caught in the Spam Filter!! -_-

I approved read through them all and there is some quality stuff there! Good job girls, and I am so sorry about the late approvals! Keep up the support and awesome comments! I love the direction that this community is going in.

So go forth and read and comment on the new material and thank you all for submitting and making this sub everything I wanted in Reddit!

Oh my, that image gets me every time. Seriously, the existence of this subreddit is amazing. It was like "Christmas: The Sequel" finding it.

I just want you all to know that I love this subreddit. So much.

Suggestion: put some related subreddits in the sidebar. Possibly subreddits targeted at other racial groups/genders. It would be cool to be able to browse from one to the other, they're hard to find!

Probably not a good idea to include r/Asia girls :P

You know, when I typed in r/blackgirls, for some reason I didn't expect a community of black girls.

I expected photos of black girls
