Are these famous people?

morethanpretty · 11-21-2010, 07:46 AM

No SG, its more of a cultural joke. They're "gangsta" types...but yet they're snuggling on a subway, very ungansta of them. I think its cute!

Sundae · 11-21-2010, 07:50 AM

Me too. Gay or stright it's a cute photo. Glad I wasn't missing a specific reference.

Cloud · 11-21-2010, 12:53 PM

I didn't know what to say about this picture, because it makes me mad it's even commentable or remarkable in any way.

but I will say we don't know the whole story. Maybe they're brothers and have just come from the hospital where they've sat at their mother's deathbed for 18 hours.

But I certainly would not care if they were just tired boyfriends, either.

Calm down Cloud. A strong, basic tenet of urban Black culture is how "tough" or "strong" you look and act. And so yes it is somewhat remarkable to see two young men who are looking the part not acting the part.

Cloud · 11-21-2010, 01:47 PM

it's a stupid, harmful tenet

Lamplighter · 11-21-2010, 01:48 PM

Another preconceived idea

So you're calling black urban culture "stupid"?

They look very UN gangsta. They look like any of 100's of high school kids around here.
What makes them "Gangsta" - their skin color? Fuck that bullshit.

monster · 11-22-2010, 09:39 AM

What does "gangsta" look like, then? And I mean in the "urban black culture" sense, not the actual gangbangers.

morethanpretty · 11-22-2010, 09:53 AM

Its a fashion trend Cloud, just like emo, goth, prep or whatever. Gansta is supposed to be tough and menacing, and they are not. They aren't to me anyway, but I'm still gonna make fun of them for breaking the rules of their image. Hell, I'm gonna make fun of their image anyway. It has nothing to do with their skin color to me. Its just clothes, so stop foaming at the mouth.

DanaC · 11-22-2010, 10:08 AM

It does seem incongrous with the image most usually associated with that particular fashion choice. Good on them.

Nicely worded
