I dont care for any of the stories. But I remember the hookers on the point show from HBO. That shyt was hilarious. Is it still like that up there or is it cleaned up?

Yes, but only because Backpage /Craiglist made prostitution more convenient. Prostitution still exists in a big way. Just scattered throughout (Wakefield's becoming the new hoe haven it seems)

 

[Thoughts]

Chris Arnade, 48, quit his 20-year gig as a Wall Street banker to explore the streets of the South Bronx at night and photograph prostitutes and drug addicts. Just a short distance from Wall Street, the South Bronx is the poorest congressional district in the country, with about 35% of its people living below the poverty line.

I swear man, these white people brehs

Only went there twice, once to fix my car, and the 2nd to go to the junkyard.

Tell us a story or two

I remember I came back home during Xmas of freshman year and me and 2 of the homies decided to go out to hunts point since we had a whip (green Isuzu Rodeo). When we got out there we had no idea where all the action was at but saw a bunch of cars following one another In a line so we followed them. One second we're in this desolate looking residential area, the next, we turn the corner and there are hoes selling ass every where. It was winter and this one bytch had on a fur and some lingerie on under it and that was it. It was like that HBO special. shyt was out in the open and there were ZERO cops around.

So we pulled up to these two chicks and one leans in like and starts asking what we wanted. She said "y'all look kinda young" and called another chick over So that we could all "have" one to ourselves. Chick even reached in to try and feel my homie's dikk. Crazy

Then she said some brains was like 40 bucks and we (in the car) started to see if we had enough money to pool together so 1 of us could get some head . At that point we were kinda shook and voted my other boy to be the one to get some dome. He was like "I'll do it if y'all do it". And then we started debating on who was getting their duck sicked that night and just drove the fukk off. But it was and experience negotiating the price of p*ssy with those chicks.

Have no idea how the people who live out there put up with that shyt because folks are openly talking about getting sucked and fukked right there In a residential area.

Back in my Honda days I was told thats where you go to get into that hardcore Fast and the Furious streetracing.

Well, my story was from back in 200-something, but I wouldn't call the area a slum. It's a mix of residential and industrial and it's way on the other side of the bronx. Back in the day, there was all kinds of factories and shyt in Hunts Point and a lot of the industrial stuff is still there. So at night after business hours, parts of the area a desolate and a perfect place for shyt like drugs and prostitution to pop off.

I'm not sure if p*ssy is still being sold out there but it used to be crazy active way back when.

work in hunts point, seen worse as bad as these bios and pics are.

I use to work at hunts point too at that rite aid and powerful photos ain't enough to visualize what I've seen.

Hunts Point, smh. It's like the forgotten part of the Bx.

i was born in and grew up in the Bronx.

me and my family drove through Hunts Point so we could get to the South Bronx to see extended family.
this was in the early 80's - early 90's.

the Bronx was crazy at that time and even crazier before that.

when i was a kid growing up in the Bronx, crack viles and heroine needles on the ground were more common than grass...i'm not joking.

We are who we are buy luck and randomness...

Your choices and behaviour patterns were determined for you from the point of conception...

(1) Your parents DNA determine your natural predisposition...Theirs were determined by the people who came before them...Scientifically, on some level, your thought process and behaviour was determined for you the day the first human appeared on Earth...And probably even before that...

(2) Then you are born into an environment you have no control over...By the time you are 13/14 years old, you already have a strong foundation of thought and behavioural patterns that were programmed into you without your consent...

NO human being is responsible for the way they turn out...

It's all random...Because the Universe doesn't give a fcuk...There is no master plan...

Let's not go this far. I understand your sentiment but we all hae choices even in the face of tough circumstances

Let's not go this far. I understand your sentiment but we all hae choices even in the face of tough circumstances

I am not saying we don't have choices...

I am saying, the way we make our choices are not completely in our control...I actually believe that I have ZERO control over the way I make a choice at any given time...

We, born today, have been programmed to believe that we have control...Humans before us didn't always believe this...People in the past were ready to die for their kings and gods without thinking twice...The thought of doing anything other then that, would have seemed ridiculous, if it even occurred to them...That's just an example...

Another example is, some Canadian child could tell his mother to fck off if she tried to get him to do chores around the house...But some Japanese child would not even consider it...

(1) From taking basic psychology and sociology courses, and reading about how scientists have conducted experiments that made participants behave in ways that they thought that they never would...

(2) From thinking about slavery and other human atrocities and realizing that I could have easily been that Nazi torturer or slave owner who thought black people were only 3/5ths of a human being..

(3) From seeing the changes in Apartheid, woman's rights, our current views on homosexuality, interracial relationships and many other ideologies...

I just CANNOT believe that we have as much control as we think we have...If we did, these changes would not occur the way they did...

How the hell did we go from believing that a king was sent from god, and he owned us, our lands, animals, family and friends, to say fcuk George Bush, that dude is an idiot, and living the next day...?

We take this for granted, but it is an AMAZING change in social consciousness...

shytt is DEEP...
