I know i've been on a hiatus from the site for awhile. With good reason mind you, I've got a new job. Thats been taking up alot of my computer time, not to worry kiddies I plan on continuing working on the site DAILY. I promise, but for now instead of me triying to catch you up on everything thats been going on how about I just do my FN job which is keep this website up to date?
Good to be back!
Last Saturday night a me and a few friends were going to Lakeview, a popular area also known as Chicago's "gay village". We all live on the southside so we needed to transfer from the orange line to the red line at the Roosevelt station. Thats when we saw it, I was so disgusted I immediately thought of my camera and capturing this horrifying scene.
It isn't that abnormal to see children with leashes around their torso's, what is abnormal is that now black people are doing it. I don't know about you but I've never seen anyone use leashes on their children except white people. It's funny that I never considered this a problem when I only saw whites doing it to there kids, but now that this black family has passed my view I'm concerned. I guess I'm a supporter of societal/racial stereotypes, to think that black people should know better than to tether their children, more so than whites.
But when I think about it, it isn't right that anyone use a leash on their kids. To think that you've got sooo many kids that the only way to keep up with all of them is to start tethering them like you would a dog. When did this become popular? and what company is responsible for marketing leashes for children? I plan on doing some research and letting my friends and associates know that it isn't right at all. It's just plain inhuman, and to subject children to an adults strange fetish is just sick and dangerous.
I don't think so, at least not on purpose. Her songs "I kissed a girl" and "Your so Gay" have gotten some bad press recently. I'm a big fan of her music and her lifestyle, she isn't claiming to be an advocate for gay rights, but she also isn't an anti-gay singer turned activist.
It's clear that her song "Your so gay" isn't saying that gay is a bad thing, it's directed at one guy in particular, probably one of her ex's. I agree, who ever wrote the song shouldn't have used gay as a derrogatory adjective. It's also mainstream music, and there are a lot of other songs (mainly hiphop) that are so much more derrogatory and ignorant to gay and lesbian people. Another thing, are we (LGBT) really that sensitive that one song is going to make us rally and grab our pink pitch forks against mainstream music? No, it isn't because noone really cares about two possibly anti-gay songs from a semi famous singer, if they did, then we would treat the rappers the same way, boycotting their cd's and music. Katy Perry is a singer, artist, song writer whatever, but I don't believe she is purposely trying to hurt or offend gay people.
