No, I don't think it was sincere. I think he wasn't someone to justify why all gay men are like Chris Crocker, not listen to the reality that all gay men aren't like Chris Crocker.Why the sudden attempt at understanding when he hasn't displayed a desire to understand gay men, much less white people, much less anyone that isn't him, EVER? He comes on here and professes to be anti-ignorant one day and we're all supposed to ignore the fact that he has displayed a pig-headed ignorance of white people since he first posted on this forum, all the while spewing his idea that all white people are inherently racist and make a concerted effort to keep his people down. He has repeatedly said that he is hated and loathed simply by virtue of being black, but can't apply that logic to gay men? Some people don't like black people, and ironically they're usually the same people who hate gay men. There are just as many letters in n*gger as there are in f*ggot. It shows a really profound acceptance of gay men, when your first post says something along the lines of "I got no problem with gay men, as long as they keep that shit zipped up around me!".
So what's changed? The only thing I can see is that he's got some chick to consider now. It's not my problem she's put off by his paranoia and disdain for everything he doesn't understand. And now he expects everyone to think he's a compassionate person? **** that. If he wants to impress some chick with how understanding and compassionate he is, he can figure it out himself. There's no need for us to do the leg work for him.
If I asked him to justify his personality, he'd call me a bigot who hates him because he's black, that he shouldn't have to justify his existence or who he is. But now that he wants to impress some chick, he's suddenly a kind and curious person? I doubt it. If he wants to get laid, he can do it on his own.
And FotN, I don't discount the existence of gay rappers. Gay people are everywhere and members of every facet of society. We're parents and serial killers, we're garbage men and lawyers, we're politicians and the homeless. If you can't apply that reality to your understanding of your perpetual struggle to be accepted for being black, you're willfully ignorant. There's nothing I'm going to say that changes that for you.
Truefax.
Another thing that annoys me, that I assume must annoy gays and lesbians, is the old line "As long as they keep their shit zipped up around me.". As if all homosexuals like all members of the same sex, and will hit on any of them. As if being a member of the same sex is all the requirement needed for a homosexual to find you attractive. Suddenly all standards go out the window.
I think that's what people like that are oddly ashamed of, the fact that "even a homosexual" doesn't find them attractive.
