The Hype's Ask a Black Dude!

What's with the colorism thing among Black Men? Like only being seen with light skin/mixed/or non-black women...
 
cause "ni**as" keep buying that ****,they don't any better, not only that but also you got those white kids on youtube who dance that soulja boy song...thats why..blame thier white asses.
 
As a white man, I think it's difficult too. Most whites, when trying to start a dialog, come off as tokenizing, or assimilationist. Others try to ignore the problem, hoping that by not acknowledging race, racism will be defeated. This, of course, encourages white apathy.

For a lot of whites, it seems impossible to reach out since every act comes attached with a political subtext. I have friends who are black, but heaven help me if I ever think of them my black friends.

So given this, how do you think whites can best reach out?

Why do black men get all pissy when they see a black woman laughing and giggling with a white man?

OH so you can laugh w/ the otha man!??!?! - I screwin w/ you. I don't, maybe cause I ain't seen it that often:cwink:.
BUUUTTT I try and not to g e n e r a l i z e as a general rule
 
What are your views on Affirmative Action?


I think it's necessary. But it has not been used the right way. Instead of hiring a "qualified" black person, many businesses just want to "Fill the quota". Then when the candidate fails, they want to scream that AA doesn't work. It's straw-man argument, really...

It does work. But like anything else, you have to select "qualified" black or female candidates.


It also prevent man's natural tendency to gravitate toward people they like more or have more in common with. It also prevents us from using prejudice as a weapon. Without AA, men would do what comes naturally. We need AA to keep hiring in check.

It's kinda like knowing that a cop is parked on the highway somewhere. You watch your speed, knowing you could get slammed. Without that threat, you'd go as fast as you wanted. AA serves that purpose......
 
Dear Black Dude, why does rap suck nowadays?
Mainstream rap does suck. Record execs tell rappers they have to rap about guns, drugs and girls to get signed these days.

These rappers are greedy, they doen't care about the rap and its history. They just see it as away to get rich quickly even though they don't realise they are being exploited by the music industry to portray an negative ethnic stereotype or they do and just don't care as long as they got loot.

Also the fact of the matter is its not just black people buying this crap rap these days its every race.

Good Rap music exsists just don't expect to hear it on your radio.

Colourism has existed for a long time. Even back in black colonial times light skin was seen as more attractive. Personally I don't mind if girls are dark or light. On TV when you see black women most of them are light skined. I'm not sure if thats to do with make up or lighting but you don't see many dark skinned women these days.

Its not as bad as bad as the Asian community thought (Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi). They use skin lighting creams and view being dark skined as ugly. Its got quite a lot of publicity in the UK as we have a large asian community.

Dudes are super verbal about their lack of approval.
I think girls and guys are about the same when being vocal of not appproving.
 
I'm more attractive to lighter skinned women than those of the same color...more specifically, Spanish, Mexican descent girls :up:
 
It's a her. :o

She may still be gayer than Paris in the '20s, either that or she's a raging nymphomaniac, 'cause it's been my experience that those are the only types of women who take interest in gay porn. And she probably is coping with her embarassment concerning her mandingo fantasies.
 
why do black people like menthols so much?

I woulda been right with you on that one up until a year ago. 'Cause as much as i've been bummin' smokes off people, I've found more whites smoking damn menthols than blacks!
 
I know the stereotype that it's okay for men to get off on lesbian porn, so why is it different with women and gay porn.

I've known straight women who are into it. :huh:

My guess is lesbianism and women experimenting with their sexuality is more socially exceptable than homosexuality.
 
Hence the stereotype of what's more accepted. But I've known girls who get off on gay porn and they were at least vocally straight.

Outside the stereotype, it really shouldn't be any different than us watching 2 girls.

Like I said, just going off my own experiences. As for lesbian porn, that doesn't do anything for me, 'cause I know I can't join. Two girls kissing and subsequently f***ing while in the same room as me, yeah, that's lovely. But watching it on video, just doesn't get my juices flowing, so to speak.
