Becky, with the good hair

Becky, with the good hair

By VANESSA E CHAMBERS 

A few weeks ago Beyoncé dropped her sixth album, in which she hints at her man cheating with a woman, Becky, with the good hair. It raises various cultural and social issues, and it’s also obvious to some that the artiste has been holding on to some emotions and has used this avenue to unleash her beast for the world to see.

Regardless of what her motives might have been, Beyoncé has now set fire under the feet of women who are dealing with cheating partners; some of whom want to do some lashing out of their own.

Would you pull a Beyoncé on your man and put him on blast, or deal with it privately?

Fionie, 25:

I would, without a doubt, let him know I’m not playing games and I’m being serious.

Lavana, 32:

It depends on what he has done, how long he has been doing it, and who he has been doing it with.

Sharnie, 29:

I’m not one to air my dirty laundry so I would do it in a private setting. I’m not going to get loud nor am I going to be disrespectful. If he did me wrong the damage to me and our relationship would have already been done. No need to draw attention and shame to it.

Lisa, 35:

Pain is a hell of a thing and a broken heart is the worst emotional pain as it makes your actions unpredictable. So I can’t say I would put him on blast or I wouldn’t. I would have to be in the moment to react.

Karen, 30:

I would he bitter and hurt so I would blast him and make everyone know the type of man he is. Worse, if he is the type who acts like he is Mr Perfect and oh-so-innocent. I would tell everyone how he hurt me.
