Yeah, it is sissy-ish to wear a bunch of Jewels and long T-shirts. Remember the old Whitney Houston Album cover where she wore a long t-shirt and a Belt? Guys wearing all these elaborate accessories is sort of GAY. Doo-rags, headbands, wriwstbands, a jersey, a white t-shirt and pants, shorts and boxers. WTF? That is some dumb ish! I see men more accessorized than the Diva chics!


Say it LOUD! "I\'M BLACK and I\'M PROUD!"

[line]I don't get it...WHY? confused3 Don't basketball players have tattoos on their legs?

What if the guys have tattoos on their arms and legs? Are they still suspect or are you only suspect when you have tattoos on your legs only?

Like Basketball players cannot be bisexual. Do I have to point you back to the thread on DL brothers? LOL

It could be the society that you are in, but from my hood and from my military experience, as a man you will be ridiculed with a tattoo on your, waist, butt, or legs.

It may be cool in Britain, or in NY but down south in the US you are suspect.......

@ALL

ON the Long T Shirt thing, I neither agree or disagree with the cartoonist. He is black as well. I just never thought of it that way is all and thought it would be interesting to hear what others thought on this.

Thanks

Toe rings here are not looked upon as gay, but you will not be classified as gangster. Probably a freaky dude by most girls, but that is a good thing LOL I guess I should recall that where I said about the leg tattoo. Most folks will say a guy with a leg tattoo is not gangsta, but some will look at it as a sign of weakness. confused3

Same in the military. When you get your "wings" say for instance, people take turns taking your wing badge and slam it into your chest. It leaves a big scar. Actually two good sized scars. Most guys go and get this tattooed over on their chest. Now if you went and got that tattoo on your leg, most guys would be looking at you with a wtf type look. Dunno why, but they just do.

Ill tell you whats another thing thats gay.......men wearing their jeans/trousers half way off their arse (practically round theirlegs)

I was told that that came from gay menwho got locked up in prison and for them to let other potentially gay men know of their 'persuation' they would wear their pants half way of their arse.



I dont think there's anything wrong with guys wearin a little su'um here and there, a doo-rag is ok (remember some people where it for a purpose, the same as women wearing head wraps and scarfs etc)butyou can always tell when a guy just wants to be looked at. ( a woman too for that matter) Aint nothing wrong with baggy clothes either i think, but i think you grow out of it or tone it down, you know, keep it neat and simple.

One thing i allways screw my face at is guys that weartheir trousers and jeans tightlike a woman,shits look like cling film....lol


Please don't go die and you regret it! Stand for something for you and YOU and yours!

Lol, funny comic strip and some brothers do be wearing their t-shirts a little too long. Mid thigh length and thats it, anything longer looks stupid but i definitly don't have a problem with men wearing diamonds in the ears, wrists, ring or chain as long as its not to guaky and attract too much attention because he has to think about his saftey depending on where he lives.


To believe is to have doubt and no facts but to know is to have facts and no doubt.
