Exactly… that’s why I said that not all of us can relate to that experience. lol.
Michael B Jordan is the nerd from that beat it chick meme. UPDATE SHE DIDNT CALL HIM CORNY
- Thread starter Formerly Black Trash
- Start date
Mike did it in his 20s though...and wasn't lifting before...and doesn't work a 9 to 5, looking like that was his job.
People like him, and Hemsworth (who was even younger in his 20s) probably made their initial transformations natural. At 35+, yeah they need help.
But you're generalizing brehs based on something you didn't to get deal with.
reread what I was responding to when I talked about my background. The poster said that I know how women are and blah blah and that is the reason I provided my background because no not all bw participate in that in HS.
And by acting like we do isn’t that generalizing? Where did I discount that Brehs are called corny? I only mentioned that Latinas do it too but y’all tend to only focus on bw who do it.
Let’s be honest ask yourself this. If you could take a pill or injection that greatly improved your ability to recover from tough workouts and it was all Dr. Prescribed and legal would you not use it just so you could “say” you were natural?
how the hell your older than me and your telling me a mbj type a nikka won’t eat? Mbj is not a ugly dude no homo the hoodrats not going to like him/that type. That’s what’s y’all problem
Because he’s just an average dude. Where are average dudes eating like that? By eating I mean routinely getting 8s and above. No he would be right there getting at the adjustable 6s. Take away the status and Michael Jordan is literally just a regular guy.
No, you didn't "only" mention that Latinas do it too, which is a bad whataboutism since the juxtaposition is hardly ever specifically Black vs Latina in the first place rather than Black vs Others, and when it is specified, happens to be White.
A great deal of the Coli, apparently you included, don't have the demographical profile (age/city/neighborhood) to have high school and perhaps even college experiences with Latinas. So it makes sense they focus on black or white, and/or later on encounter those who don't have the physical/cultural proximity of certain areas and end up culturally White-lite if not thoroughly Latin.
You calling him average but buddy not average even without the millionaire/fame
What the hell you be looking at? You really have tunnel vision
No, I would not
Oh I got it. You think he’s above average. But to me he’s average. Really look in the mirror at yourself and others you know. Now just imagine if they had status/money. Would they not blow up also? Take away all of that status/money and put them right back to where they were before it I can guarantee you that their life will not be much different than the average dude.
We may have a difference definition of average but to me it’s generally someone in the 5-6 range.
One of the biggest problems. A lot of ppl age themselves out of conversations.
My problem was that the focus is always centered on bw for doing something and no other group, when in this very thread and in the other one about this topic Brehs actually admitted that it’s not just brehettes that do it.
So my point is why is it always just focused on what brehettes do to y’all then? In this very thread the first few posts were about bw. Like Brehs rushed in here to call out bw. So yes I called out that ole’ girl is Latina.
I have college experiences with Latinas that’s why I said that when I went to college I learned that they fukk w/ thugs. My son’s father’s mother is Latina as well. Puerto Rican to be exact lol.
But what your saying is that only Brehs and brehettes in Newark or the east coast should comment then? That’s fair if y’all can then make it known that your talking specifically about your newark experiences, and not about a more general experience.
Michael B is in his mid thirties btw lol. So he seems on par for the age range of many coli posters, but if this is something that only posters under 30 should comment on make that known too.
So it's okay to call a person Latina based on 1 parent, but not Black? Lol so your child's father isn't Black?
Again, it's centered on black women because growing up most of the cats weren't seeing "Other". Their juxtaposition is black or white.
People who had/have proximity to Latin people should comment, regardless of the specific ethnicity, because certain cities have different ethnicities with different relationships towards us, though here, it's more similar than dissimilar like some cities are.
Yes, Mike is on par for most of the Coli age-wise, but I didn't just say age, I also said location. His location has basically been 50% us, 40% them, 10% white for a minute now. Many people here, again, weren't growing up around them to support or disspell your point.
Brehs who went to school in Southern states not named Florida/Texas and interior states not named Illinois in the 90s are generally juxtaposing their experiences of black vs white and their thresholds of what's "corny".
Until I see both parents and one parent looks black I look at her as a cardi b. Cardi also claims to be mixed with black until people posted her parents lol…
Lore’ls love and hip hop bio says her parents are both Puerto Rican. And the funny thing is they also talk about the beef she had in the show with the only two Latina costars (Erica mena one of them). I believe this girl is mostly Latina. If I see evidence that she’s half black I’ll concede to that.
My son’s father is biracial. I’ve said that on here many times. His mother is Latina. Now he considers himself black because he was raised with his black side more than his Rican side but he is not full black. Hell my own son used to think his dad was white because he’s so light smh lol.
Fine, I’ll concede to that point.
I grew up in Chicago. It wasn’t like New York. The relationship between blacks and Latin people are not the same as it is in NYC, but there is still a very large Latin presence and in college trust I got plenty of exposure to them. That’s how I know Latina girls was messing with thug men too.
Okay, I’ll concede to that too.
Right. And I understand that in certain areas of the country, it was Brehettes mostly calling square Brehs corny and lame. And in other areas of the country it wasn’t just brehettes that was participating in that.
