Omg I wrote a report on this for my Psychology of Sex class back in college back in 2013. A lot of my classmates had some very specific choice words for my paper. But, I’m happy to know I wasn’t crazy when I wrote about this issue then and really happy that other people see the same thing now.
I think it was like a 95 or something like that. I didn’t source something correctly or I left something out. I can’t remember exactly. But, yeah still an A regardless.
We can all do their part in letting people how offensive this is. I certainly do with my white counterparts, but until the porn industry stops perpetuating BBC as a description as perfectly normal, it won't stop.
How do we address the ways Black men can perpetuate the fetishisation of each other—especially since this isn’t just something that happens across racial lines? It’s particularly disappointing when Black men mirror the same behaviours as those who have historically exoticised and objectified us.
