It happened again yesterday. “It” being that sick feeling I get in the pit of my stomach when I see Black women doing things that embarass themselves and me in the process.
While browsing online I came across a link to Kanye West’s “Touch The Sky Video” and decided to check it out because I had heard so much about it.What I heard however did not prepare me for what I was eventually about to witness.
I won’t go into how utterly bad the video is, even though I had heard it was Fabu.What I will go into is how icky I felt when Nia Long and Tracy Ross crossed the screen to berate the “Kanye Character” about his choice in women, that being the girlfriend role that a washed-up Pamela Anderson played.
Now I don’t know if Kanye was trying to make some unknown political point or just out to make waves, what I do know is this particular skit in his video was an embarassment to Black women in general as it really had no place in the scheme of the video.
Kanye is playing a Evel Keneval type character and Pamela Anderson is his woman.Yeah she’s white and Kanye is Black, but that seems to be a non issue in the video.So my point is why bring in Tracy and Nia to embarass themselves and Black femeninity in the process?

While browsing Cocoa Lounge earlier today I came across a thread showcasing the actress Elise Neal in a sexy spread for King Spread.On the surface it was like so many threads about Sisters taking it off for men’s magazines, but then came this comment by Selena.
A few weeks ago I was watching the Oprah show and it was about lesbo women.One beautiful Black woman who was married had just taken the kids and left her husband to be with her masculine female lover.It was really a sad story.I say that because Black men are gonna start feeling the heat eventually of trying to lesbianize Black women like what is being done in these pictures.Once sisters start up and leaving these brothers for other women only then will they realize just how foolish it was to try and push lesbian behavior on Black women.
I thought Selena made a great point and I decided to expound on it a little bit over here.
First let me say that I don’t think I will ever fully understand the male brain.I do understand that they are wired to find breasts and buttocks attractive, but I will never understand why so many men seem to find 4 breasts and 2 buttocks sexually entertwined appealing.

With Taye Diggs appearing on Will and Grace to kiss the gay character, I figure now is as good a time as any to finally pick up this wonderful book I have been meaning to read for quite some time now.
I would suggest you all pick up this book as well.It may help explain why Taye Diggs has chosen to do something I know is totally contrary to his upbringing and Culture. Homosexuality and the Effeminization of Afrikan Males

There is a thread on my board called Am I The Only Woman and in my opinion it epitomizes the stupidity of women… Black women in general.
I think subconsciously some women are always in one way or another looking to test their man’s loyalty to them.For some, that is putting the images of scantily clad women in their faces, for others that is using a friend to try and bait your man to see if he responds.Either way, both are bad ideas that can lead to nothing positive in a relationship.
Some stupid women will reason that they are secure and thus purposely enticing their men to look at or even jerk off (
Like I said, some women no matter what type of relationship they have with their man, are always looking to test that relationship and that man.Many women, most women in my opinion are extremely insecure and tend to do things involving other women to see where their man’s head is at.

I was all set to write this long post about why Mariah has been snubbed over the years by The Grammys but I am too tired now.
To make a long story short, Mariah breaking records held by The Great White Hypes, Elvis and The Beatles does not sit well with Grammy voters who are mostly old white males.The more success Mariah has the more her True talent will be questioned and the less Respect she will get from an industry that has shown race to be a huge factor in who is and isn’t considered a Legend.
I can talk about this until I turn blue in the face, but not tonight…
