Cash banks brought a lot of unnecessary racial references in this thread, but that quote above me is spot on. Exactly what I think is wrong with lebron. No self confidence instilled in him due to a lack of a father figure, so outside criticisms affect him much more than they should.

So you can have an opinion but nobody else's is valid ahhh what else is new.

And I'm pretty sure the OP was about other people feeling the same way about the ad as me but somehow this is something I concocted thru unnecessary racial references whatever that means.
 
You made the statement that black comedians had to dress up in drag and that white comedians didnt but at least 15 of the biggest white comedians were posted above and you dont acknowledge your statement was off base?

I never said white comedians didn't do it, I said they didn't HAVE to ala Jerry Seinfeld, yet somehow every black comedian since Richard Pryor that cracked the "mainstream" had on a dress often as one of his more prominent characters forgive me if I don't see that as a coincidence.

If I'm making this up why have black comedians themselves touched on the subject?

And there you have it.

Probably the sentiment for most comedians.

If the comedians are cool with it, so be it. Aint nobody gotta do **** but stay black and die. Those cats do it because they're cool with it.
 
Word. Like I said earlier this lebron joint ain't even drag.

People take life to serious at times. Folks gonna be 36 needing a triple bypass

Oh you mean the same guy who the moment he wouldn't bend anymore was called a crackhead and crazy in the media?

and how many other people have taken a stand like Dave did?

Yea nah Hollywood definitely doesn't sound like the kind of setup where you'd have to do something you didn't want to for fear of losing it all.
 
The same Dave Chapelle who spoke openly about several people coming into his filming trailer and attempting to pressure him into wearing a dress.

 
AND HE WALKED AWAY.

Why cant everyone else do this?

Im mean seriously, even if you are pressured into anything, whos fault is it you gave in to the pressure? Yall act like these people be having these comedians families at knife point behind the camera. Stop blaming "Hollywood" and start putting some of the responsibility on the individual. Even in your Mike Epps tweets hes not going at "Hollywood" hes going at Kevin Hart.

Going at "Hollywood", really, is undermining these black comedians intelligence, like they're unable to make decisions on their own.

Show me where i said they weren't at fault?

I firmly believe dudes are weak for going along with it, but i thought that seemed obvious given my stance on the subject.

My question was why is it done and what's sooo "funny" about it.

He's wearing a Wig.... in a fashion that i've seen plenty of black dudes rocking since the 70s. Not to mention Katt Williams and Snoop Dogg


I understand the conversation regarding the emasculation of the black man......I just don't think it applies to this Commercial whatsoever....


ON another note, I myself dressed up as a half man half women for Halloween at my office this year......and wore a half dress. Now THAT was emasculation lol.

lol... are you the dude who tried to slide your cousin into the draya thread??  if so u are one ridiculous human...if not, disregard this.  
 
what is she a porn star?

what does a picture do to put her on?

"Shucking and jiving" was a tactic of both survival and resistance. A slave, for instance, could say eagerly, "Oh, yes, Master," and have no real intention to obey. Or an African-American man could pretend to be working hard at a task he was ordered to do, but might put up this pretense only when under observation. Both would be instances of "doin' the old shuck 'n jive."

It has been adopted into non-Afroamerican speech, with a reference to behavior adopted in order to avoid criticism.
In order to keep my job, I had to do the shuck and jive!

A guy was posting pictures of his cousins hoping to match an NTer up with one.

Draya thread >>>>> .

I wish death on everyone who had a hand in killing it. :smh:
 
Who in there right mind would want their sister to have Draya as a role model?

You might as well pimp her yourself.
