This became all to familiar years later as the writers here at Cypher Avenue face the same gay idiots who can’t separate satire from seriousness.įour years (almost to the day) is far too long for this biting satirical commentary to go unread and forgotten, so we bring you Nova Slim’s hilarious guide to The 8 Black Gays You Will Meet In Your Lifetime. I immediately recognized the comical nature of the post, however many gay men took offense causing Nova to write a response defending his writing. I’d just been in the “gay lifestyle” for 3 or 4 years when this 2010 satirical listicle (written by Nova Slim, who now runs a pretty dope men’s fashion blog) hilariously summed up the 8 types of black gays that I’d recently started to meet. Tyson expanded to GSN on his reasoning behind the posting.Long before I began blogging about being a black gay man, there was an article that hit my inbox that literally had me crying from laughter. ‘The message! Recreate yourself! Embrace who you are and not what others want or say you should be! Don’t miss living your best life trying to live life like someone else!’ ‘Tired of being ashamed of being a muscular submissive bottom’ ‘If you think cause I like a good pounding and being dominated makes me less of a man! My hustle and ambition says otherwise! If you think it makes me soft! Google me, yeah you can dot com me! Yes I can be aggressive, but with my partner I am a proud submissive bottom and I refuse to be ashamed of that any longer!

‘To keep it in context I’ll just say I’m a proud black gay male! Yes I’m masculine, and muscular. ‘Now some of you may say, “What the hell do these pics have to do with anything?” Well, these pics are a big fuck you to what family friends or society say I should be! And an amen to who I was destined to be! I wasn’t living being the man I was created to be I was living life who society said I should be! After two years of confusion I finally realized this one truth. I’m a pretty dominant guy but with my guy I rather be the submissive one. ‘Topping’s cool but it doesn’t do it for me. ‘As a black gay man me trying to figure things out it was like I was giving a handbook on what a black gay man should be! He should be the aggressor, the top, dominant at that and I was conflicted and confused! (Photo: | Instagram) ‘Topping’s cool but it doesn’t do it for me’

‘So I hid in a closet for years and did what I had to do to fit the mold to become the man society said a black man should be, but in the end who I really am came out! I’m gay and I love being gay but it didn’t stop there. ‘I wasn’t allowed to be loving cause that meant I was weak! Black men don’t ask other men for hugs! We are tough and don’t deal with feelings and emotions. ‘Growing up as a black male I was taught that I’m not allowed to be affectionate cause that was gay,’ he said in the posting.
