Not too much on “Living Single.”

There’s nothing more annoying than a group of Black men sitting around attacking Black women about their looks. Yet that is exactly what happened during a recent podcast conversation that has gone viral across Black social media.

“No one watched ‘Living Single’ and said they were attractive,” one of the men said. Another tried to soften the statement, saying they weren’t calling the cast ugly. The women simply weren’t “Girlfriends.”

Excuse us?

The segment – if you can even really call it that – started loud and wrong as a debate about studs, lesbians and tomboys. The group went back and forth about the terms, what each group supposedly wore and how people identified them. Queen Latifah eventually came up, first as Cleo in “Set It Off” and later as Khadijah James on “Living Single.”

Somehow, the conversation turned into rating the attractiveness of the women on the beloved 1990s sitcom.
