Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

She sounds awful vague. Is she an L, a G, a B, or a T?

I don't think we can even assume that she's a she these days.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

So she's a T. Got it. But she might be an I.

I think that she was born female but that means f-all these days as she should be non-binary otherwise she is oppressing other kin.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

Yeah, I just googled it. Impressive win. I suppose I should be excited.

If it was a gay man they'd say he was light on his feet.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

'Sugar in his tank' is a black euphemism for GAY GAY GAY. It means he's "sweet"; fruity; feminine; gay; a homosexual. There's a bit more to it, but that is the PG non-derogatory explanation.

You know because girls are supposed to be sugar, spice, and everything nice. So if you come across a guy who acts feminine, you'd say "he got a lil sugar in his tank." A little swish in his walk…

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

Oh I know why breeders say crap like that. I was surprised Patrick had never heard it.

And calling a man fruity and feminine is derogatory. I think it's funny though, even if the sentiment behind it is like a jackboot on the back of our neck.

In the black community, that's mild, because you can get called so much worse. So in our world being called 'fruity' or 'feminine' is insulting but minor. You better be lucky that's all they call you and don't follow it up with some threat of physical violence.

I've had to navigate through a lot of treacherous territory with my gay cousin, and be his advocate in times where his safety was on the line simply for being gay.

I've also had to do it for gay friends as well - white and black, because they are less likely to get their asses beat when there is a girl around who can talk some sense into a group of savage, homophobic beasts. When I say 'beasts', I'm referring to homophobic men in general, not just black or white.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

Lady, the other night you were saying "Magical Negroes' were ghosts of white racism. Don't tell me that saying I and my gay brothers are less than men is homophobia light. It goes to the crux of the problem.

Oh yeah, you can call me a fairy and a faggot but don't hit me with a baseball bat? Honey, I can kick most any straight guy's ass - I'm serious. Uhuh, calling you the 'n' word is nothing as long as you're not a slave, right?

Nigga, wtf are you talking about? I'm telling you how that phrase is typically viewed in our community in comparison to more severe insults and actions. So I don't know who you call yourself trying to check here, but you need to dial it down a notch. Mkaaaay.

I don't use that type of language so I don't know who this comment is meant for:

You need to sit down and smoke you one honey, because you are tra-ripping!

I'm merely pointing out that if I use your logic, 'n' words and 'magical negroes' are mild so why even worry about it? Are you "lucky" the KKK calls you the 'n' word rather than lynch you?

To that you said:

My point is you can survive being called 'fruity' and 'feminine'… A lot of black gay men that I have known, tended to let insults like that slide, until someone tried to get physical or increasingly verbally abusive.

You may not survive if they put a bullet in you, or decide to beat you beyond recognition and mutilate your body for being gay. Just like for centuries blacks survived being called nigger and other racist epithets over being enslaved, whipped, lynched, castrated, burned alive, shot down by cops and each other. So, there aren't any special snowflakes here.

I repeat, being called 'fruity' and 'feminine' is mild in comparison to the things they could say and do to you. No one said it was right, but yeah, any fool knows it could be and often is much worse. You can survive words.

Hence why I said you are painfully "Amish". In your case, "Amish" is my replacement word for white.

Just out of curiosity, do you have any black male friends in RL?

Can't say that I blame him, but he didn't miss anything except a lot of drama. I asked about your black friend{s}, because they could probably explain it a bit more in depth.

Are these black friends of yours hood savvy or suburban nerds? If they're hood savvy, they would have heard of it. If they're weeaboo 'blerds', probably not.

Just my observation here, but you don't seem the type to hang around "hood" brothas. You come off as kind of corny at times and awkward. The very type who would get clowned or rolled on if he stepped foot anywhere near the hood.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

XFILEZ said... I’m more controlled and concerned with how I’m perceived, so to speak, in real life. I’ve never been teased. On here I’m more free to be weird and whatnot. When I first joined the soapbox, I didn’t act like I do now. I was more controlled and concerned with β€œimage” which was kind of ridiculous because come on. It’s a board full of unorthodox craziness.

It's the internet… I don't think image really matters, because no one here really knows you. In most cases, any judgement or impressions of you are based solely on another person's online interactions with you. Though in some cases, rumors and speculation sometimes help to form our opinions of others.

People will think what they will, there's not much you can do about that, other than be true to yourself. I don't concern myself with such trivialities.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

XFILEZ said... Yes. Before the soapbox, I had not been a part of an online community. I posted occasionally on the boards of certain films, but it was just about the films. So getting to know people in an online community was new to me. Initially I didn’t intend to stay on the soapbox, but it was so entertaining that I ended up becoming part of it. Since then I’ve relaxed and am just myself on here. A couple of people basically know me, I think, because I’ve told them so much about myself. Gameboy and Catbug come to mind.
expand
I gotcha.

It's good to have an online bestie or two to confide in. I have one but they don't post here, although they were well-known on the SB. I just try to be myself around here. Just like in RL - sometimes I'm quiet and reserved or I'm bitchy… it depends on who I'm currently interacting with.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

I believe she's just a lesbian. So wouldn't "L" have been a sufficient description?

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

I'm more concerned about the thoughts in their heads rather than what they look like or who they sleep with. None of those things matter, but Democrats are fucking stupid, so they don't care about what really matters, just pointless identity garbage.

Re: Chicago just elected a black, openly LGBT woman as mayor

Actions should be the most important thing that a politician brings to their work, sadly with Chicago's police department being railroaded into letting criminals walk it seems that the office she's been elected into needs a lot of actions to make it seem less corrupt right now.
