It's not foreign here. The character "Omar", from the tv show the wire, is the quintisential representation of that phenomenon. There are books about here,even. One book called B-Boy Blues that deals with the whole phenomenon. It makes sense really. In white gay male culture you always had the idea of taking masculinity so far, exaggerating it so much, that it becomes "butch" in an over the top GAY role playing way, the whole biker with the leather and bushy mustache, persona, etc. A lot of what Black male rappers do in hip hop TOTALLY fits into that category.....
The idea that men having sex with men automatically equals femininity or acting like a girl is a recent phenomenon. The whole "cissy",effeminate,limp wristed,lisping thing is a fairly modern creation/affectation. Men had sex with men historically in places like Rome and masculinity and being martialistic/warrior like were very much prized. If you study Roman culture, they didn't look down on men who had sex with men, or doubt their masculinity, but they DID look down on men who acted like women(whether they had sex with men or not). They did not view those things as necessarily synonymous,cause they weren't, in that culture.....

GM - your analysis is on point. Have a cousin in NY dark skinned, pretty as hell, sixpack, girls around hima ll the time, everyone thought he'd be having babies early and he was more like Graham Norton, I knew, not even his mother realised though, or maybe she was just in denial!
BP - Jamaican men are famous for bleaching. The are the original homo-thugs. LOL! Esp the ones who go to foreign, good looking, pretty, dark & light, thuggish to a tee and i'd say 70% worth of gayness inna dem! Go to the mens section of selfridges, that seems to be their local hang out.
Even saw a DVD of a houseparty in tottenham, b-boys with thongs on throwing it up to the video light calling out their man, skin bleached till it a cling onto the skelton for life. Trust me they are over here.
In yard you fine them in Asylum more time, even hear about man who drive around down town in their big car after them sell dem batty to the rich b man dem uptown, they say you can always spot them coz dem a drive with cushion pon dem seat.

enough people please...anyways AAs gave us an insight into Atlanta man think i might not be seeing my cousin out there for a while considering no mans really safe out there...I have seen some of this brothas in the UK unlike the States though they stay in the Closet... whenever you see a brotha and a YT man together sometimes its not always a work colleague...its endemic and stomach churning....it really is the end of the world
True a lot of sweet brothas in Selfridges(Super Store in Oxford St)...thats what happens when you work with too many women...anyways whos man is bleaching
one will need a bigger lie to cover the first one

lol - some jokes in here. I remember using ambi as a teenager to rid myself of acne scars, never for one second thought it was to actually bleach skin in what I know it to be now. I had bad spots as a teen, just glad I had dark skin which help to camouflage it

I've never really noticed men with bleached faces. Thats pretty rare imo.
@ Melissa
70%? I don't know about that. I associate them with certain strands of the bashment/dancehall fraternity with their homo dances.

Ahh, big city people, the paranoia, the misconceptions, the general stupidity, I loves it, I craves it. All the focus on other people and not themselves.
Looking at this thread, if you exist and happen to be black, light skinned or not, use bleaching agents or not, yer getting demonised one way or another from all corners, period.
You just can't win.
I just look at people and think "****ED"

To tell the truth its only Africans from majority black countries who seem to indulge in this foolishness.
Why is this?
