Just because I'm Black, doesn't make me a Top
Some gay men may need training about race and sexual roles.
For some (stupid) reason, guys still believe if you're, Asian you're automatically a bottom and if you're Black, you're a top.
This is no joke. Guys have approached me assuming that I am a top. In fact, one guy tried to convince me that I was a top. Seriously?
If you are over the age of 30, you shouldn't be making horrible generalizations like that. I'm not a top, so please don't get excited thinking of racial stereotypes when you think of me.
Fantasies are cool, but assumptions are not. If you like a guy, please don't believe foolish stereotypes. Just ask.
You will feel better about it later.

Are TV Gays Hurting Real Gays?

This is an interesting article from Newsweek.
Reporter, Ramin Setoodeh asks if Glee's Kurt, Adam Lambert and other gay reality stars are hurting our cause.
I will say that gays are slowly losing their originality in their looks, but I'm not sure if we are hurting our cause.
Here's a piece of the article:
The problem with the Glee club is that Kurt and the rest are loud and proud, but their generation has turned down the volume. All this at a time when standing apart seems particularly counterproductive. Marriage (and the military) are sacred institutions, so it's not surprising that some heterosexuals will defend them against what they see as a radical alteration. But if you want to be invited to someone else's party, sometimes you have to dress the part. Is that a form of appeasement? Maybe. It's not that gay men and women should pretend to be straight, or file down all their fabulously spiky edges. But even Rachel Maddow wears lipstick on TV. The key is balance.
I don't know about this one. Please read the article and let me know what you think.
