003: Making Mental Health a Priority

In this episode of Building You Up, Ella encourages a new perspective when it comes to the slang word: Fuck Boy. Ella offers her reflections on the word, as well as, the people we decide to label as F-boys. The thing is that everyone knows what fuckboy means, but no one knows what fuckboy means. So, Ella offers her listeners the definition, as well as, the history behind the slang word. Some Google results state the term was first used to describe male inmates being used as human sex toys in prison. From there the term involved and became popularized by Hip-Hop to describe narcissistic behavior being displayed within romantic relationships, as well as, the dating scene. Ella shares her lived experience with toxic people and how she uses compassion to combat the effects of The F-Boy Epidemic.
