Why is being a lame or square considered an insult?

[MrLogic]

Hanging around people that call you a square is lame in it's self.


what is it 1950's

Same but Sexy Redd type chicks do think I'm attractive

Contrary to popular belief alotta hood chicks actually do like lame square dudes

This is very true. If hood females are attracted to you and you don't carry yourself like a hood nigg they don't consider you lame, they say "he's laid back"

Interesting

Like the great poet Andre Benjamin said:
Now question is every nikka with dreads for the cause?
Is every nikka with golds for the fall? Naw
So don't get caught up in appearance

Dreads and golds have been watered down and manufactured to almost nothing breh. It was a time where when you saw dreads and golds you knew exactly how they were givin it up and it wasn't nothing glamorized or "attractive" about it.

Yup growing up around my way it was the movie "Colors" that turned the generation before me out. Then you had Eazy, Snoop, and them West Coat Gs with just too much influence. When I was around 8 years old I watched a nigg trade his brand new pair of Deion Sanders Diamond turfs for a fresh pair of Chuck Taylors. I literally watched them swap shoes in the street.

I saw the influence that "Menace II Society" did to east coast heads, and everyone wanted to go out to Cali and drive a low rider, doing dirt to be "real nikkas". Then Pac crossed over with Death Row in 95, that was and had everyone damn near thinking that they gotta get shot or do a bid to be thugged out.
