Hip-hop

Its and interesting and well written article however by your logic these people have a secret yearning to be cops – not homosexuals.

Great piece man, really gave me something to think about. I have to diagree with the first commentor, nothing in the piece alluded to the rappers wanting to be cops – the logic never suggested that. Sorry.

Sure it does.

Here is the equation: If you profess to hate something than you secretly love it.

Here is his premise:
If You Hate Gays = You want to be a homosexual

Here is his conclusion:
If You Hate Cops = You want to be a homosexual

What does one have to do with the other?

By his own logic that equation should be:
If You Hate Cops = You want to be a cop.

He is comparing apples and oranges.

But all that is thrown out of the window, rather agressively I may add, when in the piece the guy was talking about how an overt machismo usually exposes itself to be a hidden homosexuality. (Something that I felt was obvious when reading it)

I do now see your point and think we are on the same page.

I can understand where you are coming from with the over exaggerated machismo that is so common in today’s (bullshit mainstream mtv) rap, with the jewels and dancing semi-nude girls, cars, raining cash, etc. (Most of which is rented for the video shoot I might add – not owned by the artist)

I can see the relation between a “dick size” video and a small dick however to infer that it is equated to homosexuality is a stretch.

I agree there are probably a ton of closeted rappers and a few perverts out there (pissing on underage teens for ex) and I wish the environment was more permissive to allow their outage. However I still feel that to equate not trusting the police equates to being gay is an incorrect hypothesis. Being overly macho with a small penis, perhaps. I give you that.
