The audience was cringing through the whole thing.

I didn't watch alladat because I wanted to get this comment in before the post goes poast....
but...
Have "flamboyant" gay males co-opted "traditional" feminine mannerisms to the point that it's no longer even a display of a feminine trate?

Like can you even consider drag queens as even having feminine
traits?
I don't know anyone woman who acts like that kid or the drag queen
but I do know that my exp isn't indicative of everyone else's.

It just seems like their stereotyping a kind of woman that exists in God knows where
in some ultra small batch of statistics but since you have Men acting this way could
it be possible that we are applauding patriarchal views of women
((Vapid, materialistic, scantily clad, hyper arrogant, obnoxious, etc
I've known alot of Men who think these things about women))
just because trans and homosexual Men are acting them out ????

Since the LGBT operates as an ext of Black civil rights struggle could we be
applauding the LGBT equivalent of "Cooning" or "Black Face"

I honestly have absolutely no idea.

Only a man knows how a woman should be

I mentioned that before.. kinda like when some white people "act black" they "over black" and you can't even find people who act like they do....

You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

so?


i play up different aspects of my personality at different times,
depending on the audience and the message i am trying to convey.

so do you.

It's not that deep, who gives a fuck?


>>just seems odd and caricature-ish

>Straight women who act like that annoy me, too.

Do you click with every personality and behavioral type?

Don't you think it's possible that a parent might love their kid but not like them in terms of personality or interests?

>Do you click with every personality and behavioral type?

no, i don't.

>Don't you think it's possible that a parent might love their
>kid but not like them in terms of personality or interests?
>

yes, I do.

and honestly, i would probably have some issues if my son was effeminate.
but like i said, he doesn't need to hear that from me
because as i am sure he already knows, being effeminate is hard enough
and if he's getting shit from me about this issue
then he's probably just gonna find a family somewhere else that is able to deal.

so if i value my relationship with my son,
if i don't want to make his life harder,
i'd need to deal.



my mother probably wishes we were closer than we are.
and we probably would be closer of she wasnt so _____ when it comes to the gay.

what's my natural reaction when she gets _____ ?
i say "fuck you."

would i want my son to have that reaction to me when it came to the gay?
no.

so i would really need to get over myself, and quickly.
because that chasm can be hard to be rebuild, if it can be rebuilt at all.

My dad doesn't like long hair or tattoos. I have long hair and tattoos.
My brother has short hair and is interested in business just like my dad. They both play chess and are type a personalities.

Guess which one of us is closer to our father?

Relationships are complex.

I don't find that kid entertaining. If he were my kid I wouldn't be excited to take him there for that shit. But who's to say that we don't bond over cooking or something unrelated to what he did on TV?

I wouldn't stop him,I'd try to support him however he needed me to, but I also wouldn't fake enthusiasm for something that doesn't interest me.

of course, we know ppl's reactions in this post
is at least in part due to the gay.

and unlike the other stuff you mentioned,
the gay goes far deeper to the root of some of the essential parts of being human.

and unlike being a part of other minority groups,
kids that are or might be gay don't have the same support network.
my kid knows he can talk to me about issues he has being black.

but issues about maybe being gay?
he might not know he can come to me with that stuff.
especially not if he sees me acting _____ when i see him or other dudes
being effeminate.

so yeah, I think it's a little deeper than a parent not liking a kids haircut.
i may struggle with it.

I'd have to work really hard to avoid alienating my kid
over this shit.

and i am sure that ppl will accuse me of being overly liberal just for the sake of being PC.

that's fine.

i remember how my mom reacted when she saw boy george wearing a dress.
it was a good indication of how she felt about the gays, generally.
which made me not be as forthright as i may have been when she asked
how my day was.

subtle shit matters.
if my kid was effeminate i would've trip.

it would be hard but it's kinda my job.

I really don't even care enough about this topic to continue digging deeper but, everyone has certain personality types that annoy them. He has certain personality traits that happen to annoy me. So, you're right, it isn't that deep. Pretty simple.

While I can't co-sign the homophobic undertone of the post, I do think that whether this kid was gay straight or otherwise, he's just generally annoying. Obnoxiousness doesn't have a sexual orientation.

That said, to answer the question....of course I'd support him and be in the audience but I imagine the kid would drive me up a wall on a daily basis.

***
I'm tryna be better off, not better than...

And a few of them were from LGBT community members expressing how they're displeased with the attention this kid is getting because he's too fem and is embodying all the "stereotypical" gay mannerisms.

Is it equivalent to the way some black people feel when media attention is given to "ghetto" blacks? For lack of better words.

i mean i knew a couple over the top kids in high school like that. it didnt bother me that they were gay but it was annoying that they were attention whores.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

What are the benefits of being embarrassed or not supporting him?? He's flamboyant... He could be something worse...

b/c it's my problem, not his.
to the extent that i was uncomfortable having an effeminate son,
i would fake it till i made it.

b/c there is nothing wrong with being effeminate,
and he's gonna be however he is, no matter what i did.

and honestly, if i WERE to give my son any flack for
being effeminate, i would hope i raised him well enough for
him to be able to call me out on my homophobia
and tell me to fuck off.

As a father you gotta train your kid how to act in public places. Yall niggas overdose with this liberal forward thinking.

most ppl are capable of code switching, to a degree.
most of it we learn naturally, some of it we learn intentionally.

i doubt he is wearing those clothes and using those vocal inflections and mannerisms
because he doesn't know how to be "str8 acting"/ "masculine" etc.

so that means he's doing that either because he feels more comfortable that way,
or because he wishes to use his language, speech patterns, and clothing
to assert his identity within a subculture, and he's saying "fuck you" to
anybody that has a problem with it.


so as a father, i'd have a choice to make.
i can either express my wish that my son was more masculine.
(and tbh, there is a part of me that would)
or, i can get the fuck over myself and just let
my kid do him.

i pick option 2.

Complete liberal overdose. Folks couldn't wait to say how much they'd support this. However, there's really nothing substantive to support here.

It's on part with a cartoon dog with locs, a backward hat, and a skateboard. I once saw an episode of room raiders back in the day where this Jonathan Taylor Thomas lookalike was acting like some "spunky" cartoon character designed to "relate" to sensibilities kids don't even seem to have.

He doesn't come across as a gay kid, he comes across as some frat kid going undercover and turning the sass up to ridiculous levels.

It's Big Mommas House. It's rapping Mormons at a high school assembly telling you how cool it is to stay abstinent. *this* particular kid is just annoying and cartoonish, not simply effeminate. He's just as annoying as some tatted, spike TV watched meat head bro revving the engine of his lifted truck. All kinds of over the top personalities are annoying and off putting, and this kid just happens to have one of them.

- seems happy being himself
- potential to make money off of his fame

what is there not to support? oh, the whole gay thing. that says a lot about anyone who would look at their kid differently

"People need to stop confusing God's compassionate tolerance for complete acceptance." ~ J. Case

And this kid got "famous" off of some bullshit. I'm not hating on the kid, but no, if my kid ever gets to be on a talk show at his age I want it to be for something more meaningful.

All this viral celebrity shit needs to be sifted through.

---------------------------------------
it's true what they say...people are strange, when you're strangers.

not compassionate....only polite.

I am not like you at all and i cannot pretend.

that said, wouldnt you want this kid to be his best what ever that is in his world?

for success.

if your child is a burglar, do you want him to be the best burglar he can be? how about a murder? sex fiend? liar?

i'm not saying that kid is on par with those things, but parenthood is more than just wanting your child to be the "best they can be".
---------------------------------------
it's true what they say...people are strange, when you're strangers.

but I guess it depends on your worldview. Supporting however your kid feels at the moment isn't a good look imo. Parents should build character and support constructive behavior. I'm not seeing that here.

ppl are in here saying "i don't care about the gay/ effeminate thing.
i only care about the content."

okay, sure.
but since at least 90 percent of daytime television is enough to make you
wish i had a labotomy, i can't say that the issue is about the fact that he's
not talking about shit.

it's really about family embarrassment.
the good family name.
what your friends will say at the barbershop.

all of which i understand.
all of which i would have to deal with too.


but that's the thing.
*i* would have to deal with it.
because it really is about MY discomfort with effeminate men.

it's not about me looking out for him.
it's not about rearing a kid that's a decent, ethical, smart, socially savy human being.

it's about me not want to have a kid that's not... me.

since *i* would be embarrassed if i was dressed that way on tv,
i'd project my neurosis onto the kid.


i think that's a bad thing.
ppl in this post disagree.

that aint dope. he can vogue all day long & thats 1 thing but you will NOT be a bamma while doing it

not on my watch...we abt to be on tv, nigga lets get jazzy


does it really matter?

for all my fans who keep my name in their mouth: http://i.imgur.com/v2xNOpS.jpg

the market for the show IS bammas.
am i being elitist here?

yeah i am.
fuck it, i'll ride it out.


that shit wasnt any more dumb than anything else i see
when tuning into daytime talk shows.
would i have a problem with my son working thy circuit?

well, maybe.

for sure i'd be more excited if he was on NPR called in as an expert panelist
to discuss ______ .

but then again, the ability to work a talkshow crowd is a valuable skill in and of itself.
if my kid has that ability, i would probably wonder where they got it.
because they certainly didn't get the mass appeal thing from me.



but anyway, if i am real with myself, if i had a problem with this,
it would be about him being effeminate in public--
not general embarrassment about him being on a daytime talk show for any reason.

so that's what I would keep in mind when i
decided how i reacted to him doing this show.

You can't lock the ideology into a box that fist your single mindset.

That is the definition of being conservative. You don't want to progress your interpretation to account for any cultural differences. You have expressed time and time again, that your stance on sexuality is literal. Again, that's your right, but that is the epitome of conservative.

You can't define my mindset or determine how I am suppose to think about every subject. I am progressive in many areas of my life and I'm conservative in others. Who are you to determine what I can be progressive over and how that relates to my religious views. GTHOHWTBS!
