Tired of Hollyweirds obsession with making all black male characters gay...

[agpxknt]

Oh my god I’m watching What Men Want right now and of course Taraji has a gay assistant, a coworker that’s on the down low that likes him, and one of her best friend’s has a husband who was exposed as sucking the dikk of another dude that’s at the wedding the only thing I’m surprised about is none of them are black

Speaking of Taraji she's on the other end of the spectrum in term of the #Genda with her new Netflix movie "coffe and kareem"

Thinking back on the last four shows me and my girl have binge watched.

Ozark - gay black detective
on the block - effeminate black teenager
The rookie - gay black cop
This Is Us - the one show without it. has strong black male characters, but has a black lesbian daughter

There’s only two gay characters a part of the semi-main cast and they’re both Black

Randall is a great depiction of a strong Black man and Beth is a great depiction of a strong Black woman, tho. I do appreciate them being on screen.

Two points here

1. Gay people exist. Some of them are black. Given how gay people drive social media traffic when it comes to media (TV, film, music, etc) it's not surprising that many shows are providing content they can tweet about. They also buy shyt. You know who else buys shyt? Women. It's money. I got no issue with gay black people being on shows.

2. I agree with Charles Blow that gay white men often portray black men in effete roles/positions because it's a fetish.

In short, they deserve representation just as any group deserves representation. But these execs are clearly getting their rocks off with some of this shyt.

It isn't just American media either. There was a show Império on Globo in Brazil a few years back. Guess who got cast as the flaming gay dude (and the only Black character)?

I watch Brazilian TV to keep up my language skills. Same bullshyt: many BM are favela criminal types, effeminate, or props and all the pretty BW are with White dudes. It's been like this even longer in Brazil than the US though.

Jesus they got the black man flaming and the white woman doing a black childs hair...

TO ADD ON
I FORGOT THERES A COLLEGE AGED BLACK GIRL IN THE SHOW TOO....

SHES A WENCH
IN A LOVE TRIANGLE WITH A JEW CAC
AND A REGULAR CAC.

And thats why I will never watch that fukking garbage show.

gay folks, actually the lgbt segment in general, is about 3-5% of the population. While that number is highly concentrated in urban areas its still a small segment. Yet somehow it seems about 20-30% of black characters who are given a sexual identity are gay. Because black folks are often rare in shows, it's extremely odd that in so many shows where there are only 1-2 black cast members they're so often gay. It's like every show has to check its 'diversity' box and they get a double with black gay characters.

They are pushing it to video games too

Borderlands 3 DLC Expansion has a gay black male MARRYING a white male. Gay black man has a sister in the game and I can only guess who her love interests are. :pacspit.

What the fukk is wrong with these crackers??

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Watching this Blood & Water show and even a show based in South Africa has a mixed minor character that gives head to one of the football players (who describes himself not as gay, but as pansexual )

You pulled that out your ass fam. If we add up all the black characters on all the noteworthy or semi-noteworthy shows on television, there isn't 20% gay representation.

Furthermore in terms of the 3-5%...that sounds like a white dude argument when complaining about black people on television. Should black people make up 13% of the total characters on TV? Is population total the deciding factor? Those "forced diversity" arguments are the creation of racist whites. Let's not borrow their bullshyt.

My issue, as I said earlier in relation to Charles Blow's argument, is that the roles are often wack. It's a mixture of fetish shyt and boardroom marketing wankery. Oftentimes, gay stories aren't even being displayed in these shows...that's how you know it's suspect. I'm not going to say every black character should act like Kima in The Wire, whose sexuality was almost entirely in the background instead of the foreground. Or that every gay black man should be masculine on TV. If I'm going to see a gay story I want to see a spectrum of experiences - just like I want to see a spectrum of black stories. Not just the black cop, or the black gangsta. Likewise for gay shyt...not just the "buff black guy who acts straight until he kisses a white dude."

Funny I never thought of Hammerlock as black until I looked at the concept art.

Hammerlock has been around since BL2, not sure if he was gay in that tho.

and his sister game spoiler

Spoiler

is dead.

you the type that clowns someone for guessing a wrong number when you ask them to guess smh. nikka I said 'it seems about 20-30%'. I'm clearly guessing. But its not out of left field. I watched 3 seasons of Ozark. Only black character was a gay man. Started watching that 'never have i ever' show. Only black character had a coming out story. Watched the first ep of the 'Working moms' show. Only black character I saw was an African woman married to a white woman. You can label it however you want but its all over the place. I said what I said and you've said nothing to refute it other than your feelings
