The variations in shape, skin tone and builds fascinate me the most about men of African descent.  I’ve enjoyed watching the change and evolution of my  own form as I’ve aged.  I guess that attribute is why I am so observant when I see another naked African male descendant.  This guy has an attractive face but the look of his body from the front is too wide and flat for my taste normally but it works well on him.  The surprise that awaited in the rearview shot actually changed my initial judgement of his body. What I want to see is what a photographer and stylist can do to sell the truth of his sexy.  The task,from the perspective of the shots above, seems like an easy one.

Recently my partner and I were watching a documentary on NFL players going broke 5 years or so after retirement.   That got me to wondering.  Why in the Hell don’t they try doing porn, modeling, or building a business around their passions.   To tell you the truth I have no interest in sports other than track and field.  I’m biased due to my life experiences so don’t hold that against me, but my partner is an avid fan of the NFL.   To date, a few guys have had leaked pictures and have worked to quiet the buzz generated by their unexpected slips.   I say why not monopolize upon that newly opened market?  I’m a fan…

Wow… I am not a church goer but I do believe in GOD.  The thing I am not to happy about when it come to religion is the lack of positive social growth the believers seem to hold on to.  I see religion as a way to improve upon the issues facing societies but as time goes on and social situations change, so much religion.  The basis of Christianity is love , respect and compassion but the extreme followers don’t see the damage they are doing to their own religion. This image is a bit extreme to me but I understand the meaning behind it. For hundreds of years we have been at war because of religion to some extent or another and with that in mind I find meaning in this image.  We can NOT keep allowing differences to keep dividing us as a nation or as a planet.  The faith and truth that you as an individual find in religion should not be something that you force on others.  The right to religious freedom was after at the foundation of the formation of our nation.   We call ourselves the greats nation in the world but we don’t seem to be capable of learning the lessons our collective history has tough us.

This is why I don’t like this Word….


I don’t understand why so many African American people use this word.  I never thought it to be a “cool” word or a form of endearment when used by anyone.  Why are our people so proud of using this word when the definition is so clear?

We have to get past this and stop using a word that is so degrading and destructive.

nig·ger

   [nig-er]  Show IPA
Usage note 
The term nigger  is now probably the most offensive word inEnglish. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly inrecent years, although it has been used in a derogatory mannersince at least the Revolutionary War. The senses labeledExtremely Disparaging and Offensive  represent meanings that aredeeply insulting and are used when the speaker deliberatelywishes to cause great offense. It is so profoundly offensive that aeuphemism has developed for those occasions when the worditself must be discussed, as in court or in a newspaper editorial:“the n-word.” 
Despite this, the sense referring to a “black person” is sometimesused among African-Americans in a neutral or familiar way. Thesense referring to other victims of prejudice, especially when useddescriptively, as to denounce that prejudice, is not normallyconsidered disparaging—as in “The Irish are the niggers of Europe”from Roddy Doyle’s The Commitments —but the other uses areconsidered contemptuous and hostile. 

noun
1.
Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive .
a.
a black person.
b.
a member of any dark-skinned people.
2.

3.
a victim of prejudice similar to that suffered by blacks; aperson who is economically, politically, or sociallydisenfranchised.

Back in high school when I was thinking about participating in sports the thought of being in this situation scared the h3!! out of me.   I just knew I was going to get hard  when I saw other guys showering around me.  

The funny thing about it is that never happened.  The guys on my team were like an extended family.  I did find a few of them to be quite attractive and seeing them naked did fulfill a curiosity but…

The thought of sexing my teammates was like the thought of sexing a cousin.  It just didn’t work in my mind.  Looking back I am glad I got over that fear because my time as high school athlete has proven to be some of my favorite memories from that time of my life. How about that.

Okay, I started off loving this show until the women on the show started to degrade themselves by acting an ass everywhere.  I don’t understand why shows like this are even on the air.  I must say I am truly disgusted with the attitudes and actions of some of the women on this show.  I will not name names but the constant perpetuation of negative stereotypes is sad to me.  I just can’t rap my mind around it.

creativeindulgences: ARE GROUPS OF BLACK MEN FRIGHTENING? I work in a corporate environment, which needless to say is predominantly white.  However, there are a few “minorities” employed in my department.  Of the total amount, approximately 35% are black and about 1 5% are black male.  It has been noticed that when groups of white males congregate for basic conversation, lunch or work, no one seems to take notice.  To the contrary, when black males congregate either for conversation, lunch or work, it seems that no one can miss the opportunity to acknowledge the “event”.  Comments like this are often made:  “you all know you can’t be together like that,” or “what are you all up to?” and the most common one is “you are up to no good.”  Typically we talk about sports, the weekend or just some random event that recently happened.  Quite often it is about work.  Nevertheless, these meetings seem to grab the attention of anyone who witnesses it.  By the way, even black people notice and make comments.  What is it about a group of black men that draws attention?  Why are we not allowed to commune without being “up to no good?”  Initially, I wanted to believe that being noticed was just my perception of things.  But every single time three or more black men were together in a hallway or an elevator, comments have been made that can lead one to deduce that this is not well received.  The real question is; what is it about a group of black men, even in a corporate environment, that draws the ire of so many?  We’re not gang members, nor are we selling drugs.  Further, we aren’t trying to overthrow management to establish a black plutocracy, dominated by the family members of past and current middle to upper management.  That would be too similar to the actual status quo. Whatever it is, I think it deserves attention, at least it’s worth mentioning.  I also suspect that the relationship black men have, has been heavily influenced by this unwritten rule: don’t get caught in a group of brothers.  If nothing else, it can make some hesitant to associate with the people in which he has so much in common.   Divide and conquer; same game, different time.

Well I guess it’s true, We are number one in somethings.  I just wish education was one of them.  These findings are shameful. We have to get past our divisions and start to work as a nation again.   If the republicans actually looked into President Reagan’s history they would better understand that their current path is destroying the nation we all love so much.   To complete my point, the democratic party needs to grow some balls and stand up for what they know is right and call out ANYONE who is standings in the way of our nations growth, regardless of their financial contribution.  Now about that.

I love everything about this picture.  To some this may have sexual connotations but to me this is picture shows two friends enjoying their time together.  Simply put they are having fun. I don’t know where this image came from and it may be apart of a sexual context that I am not aware of but as this images stands, I think it is perfection.   Affection is Universal.

What is the deal people?  Why is the black community not stepping up to the plate on the HIV issue?  Why are we hiding in shame as our people are being taken out by HIV and AIDS?  I didn’t understand this culture of destruction from within until I read the Willie Lynch letter: The Making of a Slave. We have to wake up and regain our unity.  We are allowing distractions to change the focus of our community and as a result we are not dealing with issues like HIV.  We have to be smarter than that.  We can no longer allow others to continue to define us and divide us.   Everything about our culture was taken from us and replaced with a mentality that is destroying our community from within.  There is no need for an active force like the KKK anymore because we’ve taken over the job by killing one another.  We can’t allow the shame of a disease to keep us from dealing with it.  We can’t keep taking our communities health for granted.  We have to deal with this through education and by removing the stigma from this disease.  We have to care more for one another and work toward an end to this madness.
