Roxane Gay:
What is the best, gentlest way to approach my husband with all my "black stuff" and all my "female stuff" and the intersectionality of all my "black female stuff" when he is a foreign white male whose head I do not wish to make explode on a daily basis? He is the loveliest man in the world, and we are one year married.

This is a really difficult question and one for which I don't have a clear answer. It's important for you to discuss with him the issues that are unique to your experiences as a woman of color. That's at least a place where you can start.
