					<description><![CDATA[Dear gay boys &quot;no color indicated&quot; please respect that.

Recently Ru Paul was interviewed for using the word &quot;tranny&quot; many people found that to be offensive and discriminatory towards transgender people, yet as RUP indicated that those transgender people where the first  to throw stones and call there own kind trannies. I applaud RUP for his comment &quot;I have been a tranny for 32 years an i am not about to stop using the word tranny, if you feel offended toughen the fuck up&quot;  your a man in a dress foe gods sake. The writher of this peace clearly has inner conflict with his own existence, and wants to point fingers to the whole world really. He is of color he is not a perfect size 32 and he is not a club hopping bunny because truthfully i think he cant dance of socialize with another person to save his life. Blaming others because you are ashamed of yourself is not going to solve your problem. Make peace with yourself dude and you will see the world is not such a bad place , you might even get laid! If you cant stand tall and be proud of who you are, and what you are how can you expect others to respect you for those same reasons. Your GAY you pray get use to it!!! Haters will always hate don&#039;t be so caught up in the negativity that you forget how wonderful life, especially yours could be.

Lots of love

					<description><![CDATA[Well, first of all I found this article a bit boring because it as if you have so much to say but you are holding back because your are trying to hard to be too diplomatic, This sorta took all the flavour out, I was waiting the boom but nothing... 
So lets just cut to the chase, most white gay men in SA are still extremely racist towards people of colour, as a person of colour you usually get this look and nasty comment behind your back because you smiled or spoke with a white gay man. They usually use the phrase &quot;I dont do colour, im not racist, its just my preference&quot; now if you prefer someone because of the colour of their skin that is clearly racist and there is no justification for that. At the end of the day love has no limits, bounds or preference hence the saying (Love is blind) 
But its cool, just because you do not like me because of the amount of melanin my skin produced, it will not change my mind or deter me from looking beyond skin colour, I will still live life openly and continue to embrace all and give everyone a fair chance. I live by the words of Dr Martin Luther king where he says 
(I dream a dream where I will not be judged by the colour of my sking but by the contents of my character)  And because I live by that Philosophy  I am truely a happy person because my love has no limits. 
Can you say the same about yourself??? 
No one can truely know what life is like until you have lived all aspects of it, and if you delude yourself by thinking that you do... by living in that little box you created for yourself then I got some news for you Boet. 
And becuase of that you will never know. 

But inspite of this I dont blame you, You have been brought up in a certain way and live by certain pressures enforced by your mothers and fathers and grand parents, and maybe there is very little hope for this generation, But i do hope that you teach your fellow fag hags and friends and cousins and everyone you know to teach their children to embrace all, And maybe we will not be here to see this, But that we would have planted seeds of hope and dreams and have created a world of equality. 
Just saying. im out.

					<description><![CDATA[Hey there, I&#039;ve read &#038; re -read this article a number of times. And thank you Gabriel for this inspiring piece. The number of replies bears testament to this. As a white gay guy that has been involves with two men of colour - both of Indian origin I can bear testament on how at times they have been discriminated against &#038; this in the &#039;liberal&#039; northern suburbs of Jhb by other gay men. A discriminated minority discriminating against another minority. Humph. 
We need to take a long hard look at ourselves  and embrace our fellow gay citizens irrespective of &#039;colour&#039;. I do think we all have our &#039;preferences&#039; of who we want to sleep with but lets not be ridiculous about this - this involves issues such as smooth/hairy, tall/short, chub/athletic, black/white &#038; all shades in between. We are gay people. Lets take the time to get to know each other. Beauty in diversity I say.]]></description>

Yes, blame was apportioned. Just at colonialism directly, and white people implicitly (which is why it was addressed to white people).]]></description>

Using his privilege? HOW?? What does that even mean physically?? Is this privilege in ANY WAY physically manifest, with the ability to stifle speech??? He is not a perfect example of anything other than someone who doesn&#039;t mind being crass.]]></description>

I&#039;m not enamoured of this writer, but that blog is thought-provoking. Thank you. Actually, that doesn&#039;t do it justice: it is refreshing, mostly because it is objectivist. People may ACT and THINK in racist ways, but we do not need to ARGUE on that level. The style of the blog is level-headed, restrained, thorough (very thorough). I feared for a moment that all the academics had slipped into the obfuscatory world of postmodernism.]]></description>
