i agree____-ghmf!!!!! realy mr gay SA material

Amen to that!!!

MCummpuppy. Ijust would like to comment on the remarks of the reader,”wy must colour always be brought in” ,that was he comment-Cummpuppy.Well all I can say to him ,if he got a problem with himself as a “coulerd “, he needs to move on and except he is different.

Also, it is a simple point but really, if you want to know what “gays of colour” (!) think, ask them, stop printing the impressions of white men about Black people. The answers to the query about the absence of Black participants in the contest can therefore not be gained from the eventual white South African winner: that’s like asking George Bush I why the Iraqis didn’t just surrender their weapons when the American military invaded in the first Gulf War, and then taking his explanation as THE explanation such that you never have to consult the Iraqis themselves for their varied responses.

And if we’re going to give this much air-time to a beauty contestant, what I think is the Top Billing-ification of real life, can we not try to muddy the bottled water with attempts to make him politically relevant? His ‘ideas’, as expressed in this interview, are in no way politically informed or informative.

Congratulations to him on winning a beauty contest, but I think the remarks generalising from Uganda to Africa reveals infinitely more about his investment in middle class white South African queer ideas about local Black people, Africanity, the continent, and the commodified notions of sexuality which dominate the local public domain.

Please could somebody tell me why did the colour issue have to be brought into his interview ,was it needed.I am a gay man of colour and I am sick of the colour issue that is always asked to the white community, could we please move on already !!!!!!
