Don't like the way this read but your'e right. Drive a nice car, play any music except ragga or dancehall, have a job in the media, hangout in classy joints... den yuh gay. I think not only ignorance is evident, it appears if someone is jealous of your success the gay label is used against you too.

God help yuh if yuh good looking, successful and dress well.

Yes homophobia is learned at home and in these cases expressed at school.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Kia</div><div class="ubbcode-body">but what is worse is that these kids have learned to label certain behaviours as gay when in fact they are not

- if a boy is naturally dramatic - he is gay
- if he likes to swim competitively - gay cause they were the speedo swimsuits

- if he likes to dance -- dat is considered gay
- if he likes classical music


this is at the preteen level \o/

SistaCtry wen u follow these stories wen dem fuss come out, u wi find a common denominator...di children being targeted r doing well academically and doing well at 'normal' social integration....wat i mean by dat is dat dem is not limiting demselves to di now common black behaviour...dem is speaking properly, interested in schools an activiities not limited to rap music and showing demselve naked via dem cellphones...di likkle boy who died before dis one, his mom said that he neva took a picture in wich he was not smiling...his teachers loved him and he loved school...

wat we need to realise is dat we now have our black kids sooooooooo estranged from normal , common behaviour and expectations dat dem mek anyone of dem peers who no cotton to di cheap displays of wat is supposed to be di new norm, dem mek dem life hell

now DAT is wat di real problem is...wat , we as blacks have now internalised and passed on to di new generation as to wat is dem lot in life....an wen we kill di messengers like Bill Cosby etc wen dem try show we how far we have gone offcourse, we use di said restricting thinking to mek excuse an gi dose who have bought into all dis mess, a reason to carry it awn

Re: They called him gay

it's sad but i don't hink it's necessarily an issue of homophobia; there have been kids who offed themselves thru being called fat, ugly, retarded, whatever...

only that mind knows why it would go to the extent of suicide

u know, di beauty of being prone to a mob mentality is dat any issue wi mek u show di tendency

an is not JUSS GAY ONES DISPLAY DAT TENDENCY PON YAH...some a oonoo need fi step bak an see wat mob mentality tendencies can an r attributable to oonoo...

at anyrate, i have always chosen to believe dat Blu, like moi, is against the attempt to foist oddas sensibilities and forms of behaviour on my island home...at the core of the gay issue is the said failing in the heterosexual issue that now besets Jcan behaviour...

the need to mek sex and all things sexual the be-all and the end-all of our existence...it neva use to be like dat

gay Jcans been dere fi eva...juss like how people neva like fi see two Heteros a display dem lovelife at di busstop, is di said way wi neva like fi see two gay ones doin it

we always felt dat private life meant wat di word private meant....now, somehow, to be modern and to be withit, u haffi mek alllll aspects of ur life oddas bizniz even if dem no wan fi know...so ur rite is more important dat a nex one

if some wud tink fi a minit dem would see di gist of wat all dis is about....
