No Disciplinary Hearing Set for Phaedra Parks

How does she act on the show? I’ve never seen her act anything other than someone trying to keep her image intact.

When did she not represent women well on tv, whether she was pretending or not?

I guess I’m the only one who see’s Phaedra representing herself, and black women pretty well on television. Of course, she responds when she should. Of course, she says what needs to be said when attacked, but I’ve never seen her running around starting drama, pointing her finger into anyone’s face, have to be restrained from fighting anyone… if Phaedra is a bad example of black women as an attorney, as a businesswoman, as someone who attempts to be professional at all times – black women have f*cking HELL to pay.

What’s ironic is that Phaedra makes every ATTEMPT to be professional and a lady at all times, whether she falls short periodically, or not (but who doesn’t?) but I don’t get what everybody else is apparently getting.

Phaedra doesn’t “represent” well on the one hand, meanwhile Nene Leakes, who is pretty much EVERYTHING black women should be running from gets all the love because her brash, tacky, loud mouthed, in your face, no respect for others, no class a$$ “keeps it real”?

It’s her subtlety that is questionable…the quiet ones who are great at putting up a front (remember she is a lawyer) are usually the shadiest characters…again, I don’t know her, so maybe she’s a decent person, but who she chooses to fraternize with and “husband up” is where the side eye comes in….

I hear you. I don’t care who anyone marries because what they eat won’t make me fat and if most people were HONEST, they’ve likely got some questionable bed potnas and baby deddy’s them damn selves – it’s just easier to point the finger at someone else from the safety of your office.

I just think it’s interesting that folk are talking about how she “acts” on the show when I’ve just never seen her act a buffoon on the show. Even if she’s a criminal BEHIND closed doors, she wears professional black woman very well in my eyes – even in the midst of the buffoonery of Nene & Kenya.

I’m not debating that she may very well be involved in her husband’s business dealings – I think it’s hard to be married to a felon who brings home cash with no real “legitimate” means of income and NOT, as an attorney, need to know WHERE those coins came from or be involved in some way. I just don’t get the whole “the way she acts on TV”, thing.
