Paper Boi Shows Up To The Oscars Rocking a Dress

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

cause male comedians dressing up as women has been a trope for thousands of years.

It was funny when Martin did it but truth be told I don't like them pushing that image. I mean it seems like almost all black male comedians have to put on a dress at some point and why is that.

*In European culture

Like I said why almost all of them though. That shyt is not funny, doesn't it make it pretty much redundant and unoriginal anyway.

It’ll be interesting to see how Glover and the rest of the cast handle this leading up to season 3 of Atlanta. I don’t think most people were aware that dude is probably gay but it may affect the legitimacy of the paper boi character in the eyes of a lotta folks. Ole boy is a damn good actor.

I mean I'm not disagreeing

I also don't think comedians are pinnacle of traditional masculinity but that's just me.

We are in a country that evolved out of European culture. What are you expecting to happen?

Are you telling me comedians in African countries don't play as women either?

Martin did it bc he was funny enuff to play those characters BETTER than a woman could.

Same with Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy

Those guys are chameleons. And those roles were likely their choice

These are black entertainers though, they shouldn't have to wear a dress in film. Also things evolve, for motherfukking men to still be wearing a dress as part of entertaining is silly. This country did not only evolve out of European culture only and for you to bring that up you don't understand how acculturation works nor do you understand our history.

Also I'm sure perhaps it went on somewhere due to European influence but I have no knowledge of that. If you know something I don't enlighten me on it but if you don't know a thing then don't raise questions trying to imply it did.

It’s a tv show and long as he keeps playing the role how he is it’ll be fine . If you thought he’ was really his role that shows you how good a job he’s doing why would him being gay ruin the show for you ?

Not Denzel...

I always say this to black entertainers: Save your money up and live below your means, cause busting it open for roles or opportunities in Hollywood is NEVER an option because you'll embarrass yourself and other black people in the end. As well as having your manhood taken away.

Save at least $10 million in the bank, and always have the mentality towards these execs cause once you financially free, you good to go. No need to bust it open for some cash.

I doubt it. Maybe Eddie had the choice but Martin and Jamie played women early in their careers before they had any real power.

I do know in Africa gays get stoned to death and their head busted open so with that said the more I think about it I doubt they would let that shyt go on. Maybe these days people get a pass but it's not something that used to go on in African culture.

Hollywood: where the men have to be gay or bi and the women be wenches. Only if you’re black. They do not want masculine black men or Assata Shakurs dominating Hollywood. He’s clearly this generation’s Reginald ValJohnson (Carl Winslow).

Not many masculine white men under the age of 40, either. All of them are in some way.

But we know the agenda is to depopulate black people and prevent young black folk from reproducing in large numbers.

U don't know that. Sheneneh was Martins choice and he played it the way he wanted. Same with the mother character. That was his show and they gave him the reigns

And Foxx played Wanda bc the in living color guys had creative freedom

Breh it's not just on the internet, you got black woman who on that feminist shyt actually reiterating white supremacist talking points. Talking about black men ain't shyt and how white men are better. Then you got more and more women on some lesbian or bi shyt these days. Then you got them pushing this androgyenous, sissy shyt for men and women both trying to blur gender lines and make men more feminine. Talking about it's okay if a boy goes to the girl bathroom and wants to wear a dress. Im all for people living how they want to live but to push that shyt on them on such an early age and act like its okay aint cool, I don't agree with it.

For all the black women on some "fukk black men" shyt, there are 10x's more who only date and love black men. Don't get worked up over these pockets of weirdos. There will always be outliers in society.

Maybe that was part of why they gave him his own show. It was understood in the pitch that he would play a couple of women characters.
