It's a white perv's world

-

I'm surprised by how surprised every queer blogger is pretending to be over porn's monochromatic makeup. Wake up faggots: racism is perpetuated in the rainbow community just as fluidly as any place else.

Ever notice how you very, very, very, very rarely see a black in porn unless the colour is referenced in the title? Makers of porn find it unfathomable to cast black talent unless it constitutes a bankable niche; in other words, perpetuates a stereotype they have fostered.

Now that some Cybersocket Magazine writer has listed his 40 favorite gay porn stars the buzz is, "Oh how could he not list a single black guy,

like, say, Diesel Washington or Matthew Rush (because we don't know any other black people's names)??" Yeah, yeah, yeah but, hell, where was my name?! Easy: as the industry goes so does the magazine. No one noticed the lily whiteness of it until apparently MOC Blog caught the slight. I went to MOC to read the commentary but got tired of scrolling through all the videos so am glad someone got wind of it before homeboy buried it beneath more video clips. Jesus. But I guess it's a black thing, being able to detect discrimination and back-handed compliments since, as every white person and gay who I know believes, there is no more racism.

 Hell, where was my name?!

Bobby Calamitous shared a nice, rather subdued, perspective on the matter. You can read his bit over on Fleshbot. To quote the comment left by Amy.Racecar (07/31/10): THIS IS ME BEING NOT SHOCKED.

um-hmm, tell me something I don't know
