Just curious how many other blacks such as myself visit here regularly and don't let the usual climate dissuade them.

My question is this: How have you dealt with being gay?/People assuming you are gay?/Having a gay family member?

i'll be honest. I never thought much about sexuality, i was a boy, we hung out with boys and we scared of/didn't like the girls.

As i got older, there were basically two ways to go, i could either stay in school or join the people out in the street. That was it.
I chose school.

I only peek in occasionally so I don't know how the "usual climate" is here (Aside from the usual 4chan-isms).

>Gay family member
Don't really sweat it much. I had a gay uncle that I only knew for a couple of months before he died. When I came out as bisexual to my mother, she came out as the same to me. No one else in my family has spoken about it.

My dad is worried that he gives off a gay vibe, though.

> People assuming you are gay
Depends on my mood, honestly. Some days, I run with it. I don't announce my orientation, but I don't tell correct them either. Other days, it can get annoying, but that's usually when someone assumes that I'm gay for some asinine reason (Ex: I care about my appearance so I simply MUST be gay). Most days, however, I just shrug at the assumption (be it gay or straight) and just say "Yeah, you're half right."

> How have you dealt with being [bisexual]?
Used to struggle with it a lot back in the day. Father has some strong anti-homo beliefs so he was ever vigilant to stamp out any "gay traits" that he saw in me (thanks for that, dad). As of now, I am at peace with it but I'm finding it harder and harder to relate with others who only think of sexuality with a binary (Either you're gay or straight) mentality. That, and having a lack of bisexual friends/confidants is really starting to make me feel kind of isolated. I'll chill with hetero and homosexuals but I can't help but feel like I'm the odd man out in such gatherings.
>>
i rarely see black people. they usually are pakistani trying to sell me stuff and they are all quite ugly with few exception, so i rarely get to have sex with them.
why can't i find more than 2 nice black men? i am sure many of them are hot.

>>193882
as being black?
Well. I think it counts as being part black. I was brought up to just be inclusive concerning that, but the truth is a mixed race person is regarded differently by everyone and perhaps rightly so. I think it's ok to acknowledge difference as long as you can also accept that different doesn't necessarily mean "better" or "worse." - At least that's what i'd like to believe.
>>193967

Thank you!
>"Yeah, you're half right"
Ha :P
>Father has some strong anti-homo beliefs
Yah, it was like that in my household too, well my parents separated when i was about 11 (Father was heavily into drugs, became abusive) so we left. My older brother asked me once if i was gay, i told him no, but i was on the fence at that point. I wasn't really sure which way i should go.

I have a question for you, when was it that you 'realized' you were gay? If you don't mind sharing.
Also, for you is it easier to be yourself around people your color or a more diverse setting?

Yeah, my dad was really strict about making sure that I didn't turn out gay. I think a lot of it stems from his own insecurity since, as previously stated, he is EXTREMELY worried of people thinking that he, himself, is gay. I think the knowledge of having a son who is no stranger to sucking cock may make him feel less manly.

>when was it that you 'realized' you were gay?
I actually started acting on my homosexual desires before I even realized that it was such. Had a male friend in middle school who I would trade "favors" with, but I always explained it away as kids just exploring: Nothing more, nothing less. It wasn't until I was in high school and find myself crushing hard on one my male classmates that I became aware that there was something more there. I didn't really have anyone to talk to about it at the time so I just kept that part of me hidden, but I found it hard to express myself properly because some of my friendly gestures had ulterior motives.

>is it easier to be yourself around people your color or a more diverse setting?
I'm a halfie like dude-man up there, so I feel more comfortable in more diverse settings just as a rule of thumb.

> tfw too dark to fully fit in with my white friends
> tfw too light to fully fit in with my black friends
> tfw too gay to fully fit in with my hetero friends
> tfw too straight to fully fit in with my homo friends.

I get a lot of hand-waving done in my direction. Like when talking about troubles or experiences that I've had, it tends to be dismissed since I "have it easier for (x) reason."

Hope I answered your questions well enough.

Isn't being gay in the black community even worse than in the white community?
>>
>>194327
Depends on the community, honestly.

Where I live, more blacks are open and accepting of homosexuality than the whites. But, I have friends of friends who roll through from other parts and they are, by far, worse than the whites here in their disgust and hatred.
>>
>>194337
>Where I live, more blacks are open and accepting of homosexuality than the whites

I see. I'll be honest when I say my perception of every black community is based on the one from my town and I can't imagine them being very gay friendly.
>>
Don't be black and gay in the south, I cannot guarantee your survival.

Where I'm from though, you're pretty much okay. I can't say they'll accept you, but they'll generally leave you alone. Wasn't always this way though.

Then again, I'm straight, so there's probably things I haven't seen. Most gay people I've seen though seem like they don't face too many issues.

The world is pretty big, Anon, with lots of different people and lifestyles running around. I live in the bible-belt of America so there is a big religious presence here.

>>194337
>disgust and hatred
I think a lot of it is based in religion. I think what's most ironic about the religious aspect - Especially for the super religion black people i know.

We put so much mental energy trying to reconcile the ideology of their "beliefs" and their actions but never question the fact that the belief system they put faith is was provided by a people and during a time we were thought of as worse than animals.

It makes me wonder though. This new identity many are adopting. There are a few media approved identities for black men in america:
If your very talented, (such as raping singing or playing sports) You can be the successful sell out. (make it big and marry white)
Or you can be the urban entrepreneur.
That option has the added bonus of entering you in the lottery for the all expenses paid extended vacation, at one of many of our nation's exclusive gated communities.

And of course now the new identity that a lot of support is thrown behind in the media - Homosexuality. I have no problem with that in and of itself - if it wasn't for the historical assault on the very idea of what it means to be a black man.

It's sad that many of our people or so quick to just swallow what's presented to us instead of doing our own research into our past.

Black people have hate for whites. But it's not racism. There is good reason to hate this system and those who maintain it if you are black.
Our people's persecution was and still is the direct result of a belief (that has always existed) that we are inferior to whites and as such, it's fine to use/treat blacks like animals toward whatever ends you embark on.

Take a little time between enjoying yourself and get educated on the true past.

White Racism goes deeper than just hate. It's a system of financial, pyschological and physical assault to make sure black people remain "less", in keeping their long held beliefs.

by that token (no pun intended) i suppose since Fredrick Douglas married a white woman in 1884 (his 2nd marriage), then that means blacks during that time weren't being lynched, raped, and treated like shit.

I'm glad you brought up the 'civilized' argument though. That was actually a big part of the reasoning white women touted as to why they should be given the right to suffrage. They saw themselves as being the ones capable and responsible for (given their purity and wisdom) the civilizing the "lesser" races, i.e. non-whites.

so it's your position that informing black people just how persistent and systematic the actions against blacks have been and are still is... a bad thing to be aware of?

Interesting.
I feel like that was the main thing missing from Cosby's speech. It's not enough to say 'try hard', 'do better.' It's sort of like trying to untie a knot, first you have to understand where to start and how, if you just start tugging at strands haphazardly, u have a small chance to undo it, but more often than not you'll just make it worse.
Now imagine it's a sentient knot with over 400 years experience thwarting those who seek to untie it. And add to that the fact if you start get half way done the knot will alter itself to counter your efforts.

http://beyondboundariessite.com/2011/06/hard-work-or-hardly-working-how-white-people-got-so-rich/

it's something like a chain of false dichotomies that can be employed when you want to push an agenda and divide a people or group. Once you set up the argument properly in the media and the lines are drawn, the majority of your targets will divide themselves accordingly (if you did your job right).
So you end up with a people splitting into two new groups by choice, in this way you can divide them without having to physically act against them. The more contentious the subject the more anger and resentment can be fostered. The larger the target audience or the lower their collective critical thinking skills, the more effective this is. (yay for poor nutrition/exposure at public school and at home!)

Once effectively implemented you can have them fighting each other over issues you deem important and reduces the chance they will band together in pursuits that would reduce your influence.It's sort of the "Lesser of Two Evil's" myth in practice. There are always more than two choices. I suppose it's human nature to tend to coast on the path of least resistance though, Maybe that's why this tactic is so effective.

Halfling here.

Most black men and women who were raised "Christian" hate faggotry with a vengeance. The men are slightly more accepting of lesbians. The same cannot be said of women and gays, I daresay they hate the gay men more. Only one of my black family members (not including my mom) knows I'm teh faggots. The rest of them discuss "fun" things like putting a bullet in a faggot or chopping genitals off.

tl;dr this is why I will probably only date white and azns

And for point of reference, this is based off of data from living in Baltimore, Buffalo, New York City and Atlanta.

Gay blacky here. Ill answer your questions.

1. I don't treat my sexuality as something that needs to be dealt with. Being gay is a small part of who I am.

2.
A few people have in high-school for very arbitrary reasons, didn't talk about my sex life, my voice is a bit high, didn't have a girlfriend etcetera. Im out to anyone who asks however. Being closeted sucks.

3. A few of them are yes. They are all deeply involved in the drug game and have been in and out of jail and are generally just very toxic. So I refuse to associate with them.

to a certain extent. But i'm also starting to think the whole 'we are all the same' idea may be a bit flawed too. We are all homo sapiens.

I just believe that those differences don't raise or lower that person's intrinsic value. Like saying, 'Oh i'm better at driving.'
