Cynthia Tucker: Blacks flee gays, can't flee AIDS

Cynthia you nitwit of course they can! It's real simple. Don't used drugs. Don't sleep around.

It is homophobia, such as that which he so proudly displayed, that promotes the spread of HIV.

And I thought all along it was unprotected anal sex...silly me. Didn't realize a way of thinking could give someone a disease...

"Above all, black men are taught and raised to be . . . men, to raise families, to be fathers . . . be a leader in his community and in his home. Any black male who is seen not to fit that kind of role probably suffers a lot of identity problems,"

Yeah, right. I guess that's the reason there are so few single mothers in the 'hood.

[rogueleader]

The problem here is caused by the breakdown of the black family as originally caused by slavery and segregation. The government is not going to solve the out of wedlock birth rate and so on for black people. If anything, the government makes that problem worse.

[Trillian]

Acceptance of homosexuality won't cure aids, fact.

[Kuksool]

So Ms. Tucker is scolding African-Americans for not showing greater acceptance of gays. According to her logic, African-Americans must pay gay reparations.

Anything written by Cynthia Tucker should be posted under humor.

Comedian Chris Tucker could write a better article than her.

If black America doesn't let go its bigotry, it may end up sacrificing what W.E.B. DuBois called its talented tenth.

Um, what the H was W.E.B. implying there?

[pawdoggie]

Sounds like Sin-thia is hearing some negative feedback about the attempts to link homosexual marriage to American Blacks and the Civil Rights movement. Will this cause Blacks to start voting Republican? Probably not, but it may keep some folks home on Election day. It may also cause minority voters to reflect on the negative effect the Left-Wing Democratic Party is having on the quality of life in this country.

Boston Magazine Defends Articles About Molestation

[SuziQ]

Given the hostility they face, black gays and lesbians are less likely than whites to come out of the closet, to form support groups or to seek counseling about safe sex

Even WITH all the support groups AND safe sex information, homosexual men are STILL dying of AIDS because thy continue the behavior that causes it! I'd venture to say that the VAST majority of HIV in the black population of the US is caused by dirty needles and unprotected heterosexual sex.; exactly what the problem is in Africa.

[DonQ]

I can remember back around 1984, when white gays made a (rather maudlin) outreach to black churches and civil rights groups, asking them to support gay lobbying for more government attention to the AIDS crisis (which would, inevitably, have siphoned some money away from black-oriented interests such as urban renewal). The various black spokesmen got all huffy about squandering their time and energy for something that was of interest only to "sissy white boys".

That was before the transmission of AIDS via unprotected hetero sex and heroin needles was publicized. By 1990 AIDS was a major killer in the non-gay black population.

In Washington, DC, circa 1990, the municipal AIDS clinic was the subject of an ugly fight. The directorship was given to a high-ranking member of Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, who immediately ceased all favorable reference to medically approved treatments such as AZT and instead touted the "Afro-centric" quack potion called Kemron. After a few years of that, virtually all the clinic's constitutients were dead and new AIDS patients wouldn't come near it.

The article overlooks the cultural loathing blacks have for condoms.

Homosexual Agenda Ping.

This woman is an embarrassment to her race, her parents, her ancestors, her sex, her generation, her institute of higher learning, her profession, her species, her nationality, and her planet.

Note this gem of wisdom:

"But no support group or safe-sex counseling would do those young men as much good as broad acceptance of homosexuality." Or, in her world, making same sex sodomy mandatory.

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

cynthia really screws the pooch in this article.
first, she asserts conclusively that intolerance forces gbm to keep themselves closeted... leading to high hiv infection rates.
then... she flips 180 and states that cities where gbm are free to congregate and couple are significant contributers to the same phenomenon.
can she never make up her feeble mind???

[King Prout]

Dr. Walter Massey, president of Atlanta's all-male, historically black Morehouse College, says he has encountered young men struggling with their sexual identities as they try to fit traditional roles. "Above all, black men are taught and raised to be . . . men, to raise families, to be fathers . . . be a leader in his community and in his home. Any black male who is seen not to fit that kind of role probably suffers a lot of identity problems," he said.

um... sorry, I don't see any evidence suggesting that this ideal is the single or chief predominant male model in American Black subculture.

Lots of evidence to the contrary, that I DO see.

While there are plenty of black men who do fit this bill to a T, there are a hella many who do not - evidenced by the rampant criminality, extramarital breeding, absenteeism from their parental duty, slothfulness, etc... unavoidably evident to even the most casual of honest observers.

Ugly, but so far as I can see: truth.

Building a pleasing fantasy about black culture does not aid any honest effort to come to terms with the problems hindering that culture.

[I_Love_My_Husband]

She wants acceptance from the black community because she is a lesbian, and if african-americans knew she was she would not be accepted.

It's GOOD that Black America does not accept homosexuality.
