Seems like our faves just can't catch a break! Beyoncé and Serena Williams have been slaying it lately, Serena posing in an amazing Sports Illustrated thread and Bey basking in her maternal glow. With each of their respective moves, they're adding another notch in their #BlackGirlMagic belts. Unfortunately, some people haven't been too keen on their latest moves.

Publications have been going crazy with op-ed think pieces, condemning the women for basically being themselves and owning their womanhood unapologetically. 

Two in particular have caught our ire recently. One basically told Beyoncé she wasn't special for being pregnant, and another tried to police Serena's body.  

We as fans of the celebrated beauties were not here for it. 

Knuckles were cracked and books were propped open as it was time to read.

Still, the fact remains: even in all this criticism, these women are phenomenally badass.

Stay mad.
