1. So there is a rap group from Brooklyn, no less, called Thug Slaughter Force whose claim to fame is there disavowal to men wearing tight clothes, as it promotes homosexuality. There first track is dubbed “no tight clothes.” These brothers really got it fucked up, No Homo… lol… check them out if you dare…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pABR7CoM5uA
2. So I attended New Fest the other weekend, New York’s LGBT Film Festival and saw “Ebony Chunky Love, Bitch Can’t Get a Date.” I thought that I would get some insight into the struggles that face black gay men as it relates to body image, but what I ended up getting was a story of a black man hurt and looking for acceptance from white gay men. I was not impressed.
3. Did you know that Soul Train was recently sold to MadVision, and that we should look for an updated version of the show late this year? Some things are better left as they are, right?
4. A friend disclosed to me that she never had an orgasm… Wow…
5. Please cop the July issue of GQ. The spread of Pharrell is great. I’ve always thought he was hot… but got damn… he gets better with age.
6. Speaking of publications… Italian Vogue is dedicating is July issue to black models… the entire magazine… It’s a most have.
7. Don Imus is at it again…
8. I was listening to Betty Wright’s, “Tonight is the Night.” She asks the audience to think back to their “very first time.” How was your “very first time?”
9. More than one-third — 36 percent — of New York City men who have sex with other men and have had five or more sex partners within the past year do not consistently use condoms. Is this surprising news?

10. So I took the interns out for lunch today…. It really made me feel grown manish…

1. i saw this video as i was perusing okp (okayplayer) the other day and all i can do is *smh*.
2. don't you just hate when films portray such one-sided examples of life?
3. i read that the other day. i do think that sometimes things should just be left as is, but i am hoping at least with this new ownership we will get live performances again.
4. oddly...not shocking. at least fr me.
5. i didn't know that pharrell was in july's GQ. i need to start subscribing to GQ anyway.

7. i think people are being a little to sensitive on this one, but maybe i am just over him and his 'controversial' statements that i just don't pay them any mind. its all about ratings people. this media shit 101.
8. it was ummmm...interesting. how was yours?
9. wow!
10. gon head sir. you better be in charge!
If you want to talk about one-sided, let's consider the completely miopic view of "Ebony Chunky Love."
If me - a white, 30-something woman can understand that "ECL" was about a black/hispanic man's journey for self-acceptance as well as acceptance within the gay community, clearly you're missing more than fashion sense.
