aka Contrarian

I'm convinced somebody has put a 4th quarter hex on DA BEARS! ☹️ Ben Johnson needs to find a remedy for that. Maybe DA POPE should send him some holy water. It's gonna be a loooong season. Caleb has to be worried.

Btw, I don't wear the corn rows on public They are just a way of keeping my real hair out of the way of my "artificial coiffs".😉

Meh. Is that the best you can come up with? 'Never was into that sausage-nosed Idris Englishman. He does hsve a nice set of boobs, tho, for anyone who's interested. Hey, Baby. Nana needs a caregiver.😍

My daughters and I are the same height. Get a life, Loser. I dare you to post a picture of yourself.

Nah. Since my once thick bushy hair has thinned out with age and I'm all about convenience, I resort to doing what all those false-eyelash, acryllic nail wearing black woman are doing nowadays: wearing huge afro wigs made of synthetic hair, or long luxurious "baby hair" wigs made from hair imported from India, or braided extensions made from whatever the ones in the local Korean-owned beauty supply stores are made of. I dispense with all that glamour, however, and settle for styles that duplicate the ways I used to wear my hair which has turned completely gray. After my grand daughter does the cornrows, I'm good to go, although I don't do a lot of going nowadays which has a lot to do with the choices I make.

Whatever. A jerk by any other name is just as "assinine". And that means YOU.

Get real. In your case, it's called being an "insecure wanna be" who tries too hard.

@Pioneer1Golly Gee. I had "jack off" but changed it to "jerk" because that's what you are and that's what you do. As I told you, Dummy, that's not a blond wig, it's a gray one and I put it on to cover my frizzy corn rows. Self-appointed phonies like you who are too dense to accept the reality of there just being one race are enough to drive people away. But I've reconciled with the human race. Maybe one day you can do the same when you stop walking on all fours.

If the smash and grab break-in robberies would just stop! They are reported in great detail by the TV news every night, and from the views in the security cameras, the perpetrators apoear to be young black boys who are unloaded from SUVS to run into stores and steal merchandise after another vehicle has backed into and shattered the display windows. These jobs are clearly the work of organized burgarlry rings who hire kids to do their dirty work, and this just muddies the picture. Make no mistake about it. There are Chicagoans who would welcome the National Guard.

Sez the biggest Jerk-off on the board.

The next time you get an urge to set aside a post for me, "stuff it" along with all of your unsolicited advice. You never give up in your quest to be in control.

@Pioneer1Yada, yada,yada 🫸 talk to the hand. Like I care what you think. @ProfDReady for some Football. Bears vs Vikings. Who ya got?

@Pioneer1Who are the "WE" who would all like examples of your closet homophobia? Your,yourself, and thee? Or the phantom audience you are playing to? I just gave you one explanation as to why I came to the conclusion you are a homophobe. Take it or leave it. It is a lot if trouble to go searching all around trying to find random examples of your disapproval of Gays and your fear of them corrupting the guillible. Especially on an Android phone. I don't do your bidding. You go find some examples yourself that prove my impressions wrong, that you have no problem with with "sissified" men.

Because I don't feel like it. Any more questions?

Implicit in your ongoing fear and distress about your perceived notion concerning the feminization of black men is the specter of homophobia. That along with your urgent need to emphasize the manliness and virility of black men seems symptomatic of a contempt for gay guys. That's my opinion and you are free to dispute it.

OK.

Slow learning has nothing to with the population of Chicago

That's not blond hair. That's a gray wig to cover up my frizzy corn rows. And I'm a passive, non jealous woman who never engaged in cat fights over men. I can understand if my husband hooked up with an old flame since I'm taking so damned long to join him on the "other side".

@ProfD& @Pioneer1 Gimme a break! You two DO regularly engage in discussions that cast "women as sex objects", - a reference to a woman's body odor being the gist of a recent post from Pioneer. "Snatchbox" is a word ProfD coined for the vagina, a spot he and Pioneer love to penetrate so much that he gave it this pet name to spice up their bawdy conversations that hover on the threshold of "personal details". Anytime a woman's picture comes up on a thread, Pioneer immediately starts drooling, as ProfD eggs him on, altho during the most recent exchange ProfD deflated Pioneer's fantasizing about an 80 year old "aunty" he wanted to get next to. These are just a few examples of the male chauvanistic behavior you 2 are guilty of. And my calling Pioneer a "homophobe" is an accurate assessment inasmuch as he expresses his aversion to the "alphabet community" all the time! His disgust for homosexuals is obvious. I've never called ProfD a homophobe because he doesn't come across as one. And Pioneer's attempt at deconstructing my behavior is typical of his warped imagination. He's convinced that he influences my reactions and that I agree with others to spite him rather than because they make more sense than he does. (The mindset of a person who thinks he's always right.) He, himself, " is, a "grandstander", always playing to the lurkers and the peanut gallery, hoping to make himself come across as a winner instead of a loser. When it comes to the dynamics of this board, Pioneer, as usual, thinks he's got it all figured out. Probably lies awake at night assigning roles to everyone as he creates this movie in his head. He is really a character. My participation on this site is a passtime; a diversion. What I find fascinating is how, after a while, peoples' auras transcend their words and good and bad vibes come into play. I should be old enough to know better than to get caught up in all this foolishness....but - "no fools, no fun". 🤪

Well, what's a little "strawman" lapse between friends? 😉

Your contribution amounted to nothing more than redundancy.

...just waking up from a good nap. What have we here? Oh wow. Where to begin... Yes, Hollywood does love the men-portraying-women scenarios. Popular white American actors Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon set the pace and earned kudos and laughs dressing up as women opposite Marilyn Monroe in "Some Like it Hot". As did Oscar-winners Dustin Hoffman and Robin Williams, when Dustin played "Tootsie", and Robin "Mrs. Doubtfire". Nobody could ever accuse the American film industry of not having a sense of humor or of not balancing drama with comedy. And I'm not surprised Pioneer would admire Arabs whose culture is the most misogynistic in the world, demanding their woman hide their faces when they appear in public, as well as walk several steps behind their husbands when they accompany them. Females aren't even allowed to drive cars in some of these Emirates. Moreover Pioneer's heroes are the very Arabs who have replaced Jews as the exploitive merchants in black neighborhoods. (Farrakhan be damned! ) Btw, Indian men have portrayed women in the Bollywood movies. And when it comes to the complaints about how black men are portrayed in films, the "art imitating life" mantra could apply... Then, the great "chain-yanker", grumbles about me not respecting him. Can I help it if the truth hurts? Not to worry, ProfD will step up and soothe his ego after which they will undoubtedly proceed to regale each other with lascivious stories about the 'hos they have laid. Whatever. All I gotta say is Jamie Foxx as "Wanda" and Martin Lawrence as "ShaNaNa" get nothin' but love from me. Flip Wilson's "Geradine" character does,too. Laughter is good medicine. Keeping things in perspective beats blowing them out of proportion. The Madea movies have been instrumental in Tyler Perry becoming a successful multi-millionaire film mogul. Plus - he gives back to the community! He definitely has his priorities together and for this, he has earned my respect! Rehashing and focusing on the same ol tired grievances has yet to make a difference. Drone on.

Well, I guess Tyler Perry is an unwitting tool of those given credit for being able to turn people into being something their brains weren't wired for in the first place. I prefer to attribute this perceived threat, to the evolving of the human species which at some point in the not too distant future will probably become a race of sexually-interchangeable beings. If, as soooo many people believe, (because, of course, they are too smart to be fooled,) their women become masculine and their men become feminine who's to say this will make Blacks more manageable? 'Might make them even more of a dangerous threat. And, as anybody who has actually seen a MADEA movie knows, her female co-stars present an entirely different image from her persona, - which is not always tough in the first place. These films are the least of black folks' worries. But, the "black dialogue" is what it is.

I don't know which is worse when it comes America's children. The threat of anti-vaxxers or the danger of mentally ill gunmen bent on shooting up schools. It's enough to make couples think twice about having kids because they come with the possibility of future heartbreak. Childhood used to be a happy, carefree time.

How do you know how MEDEA is portrayed since you've never seen one of her films? Nobody takes MADEA movies seriously! They're comedies that appeal to people who have a sense of humor as opposed to mopes like you who promote the degrading image of black women appealing to the baser instincts of men. Furthermore, white people are not the demograph of MEDEA movies. They don't buy tickets to see them nor count themselves among the fans who watch them. Your righteous indignation stance on this issue is ludicrous.
