Sentences with VIXENS (5)
Did I tell you we had a little captive fox,--the most engaging of little vixens? To my great joy she has broken her chain and escaped, never to be recaptured, I trust.

I particularly mourn the lack of female villains — good, potent female villains. Not ill-tempered women who scheme about landing good men and better shoes (as if we had nothing more interesting to war over), not chilly WASP mothers (emotionally distant isn’t necessarily evil), not soapy vixens (merely bitchy doesn’t qualify either). I’m talking violent, wic…
Black women have always been these vixens, these animalistic erotic women. Why can't we just be the sexy American girl next door?
