Now, we know it couldn’t be Finrod who died saving Beren killing a werewolf with his bare hands and then he died in the dark. Although it looks either one is going to survive or we have yet another original character because Galadriel does indeed have a living brother. “Maybe it’s her brothers, the ones that all end up dead prior to the Second Age. “Does that sound like Tolkien or modern bulls***? I’m not say elves weren’t capable of bullying little girls, even one that’s going to be the most powerful of all of them, one that is royalty.” Galadriel getting bullied,” Buechler continues. And I’m not saying there isn’t one here, but it’s preceded by, and this is the very first scene, Galadrial getting bullied.” You remember Peter Jackson’s epic prologue prior to The Lord of the Rings that breaks down very succinctly what happens in the second age, and hell, even the prologue to The Hobbit is pretty good. He begins, “I’m not gonna spoil the whole plot of the first episode, but I’ll tell you right now how the episode starts. But its enough of us that it’s a problem and the problem will never get solved if it is not talked about.RELATED: The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power Showrunners Admit They Don’t Have The Rights To The Silmarillion Or Unfinished Tales Yes, there are Black men out there who are genuine kind and thoughtful. But let us Black men be on the receiving end of it from Black women and suddenly its about hurt feelings When someone comes to us, making a point to defend a member of the oppressing group while we are speaking about the things they have collectively done to harm us, we get angry and rightfully so. We sound like every white person in general who gets in their feelings when one of us speaks about racism. I mean, do we not hear ourselves? Do we not hear who we sound like? We sound like every white liberal when someone speaks on police brutality. It doesn’t help that I see this same sentiment echoed by women I follow on instagram, mostly strippers and bartenders.Ĭ: One thing I will never understand is how my fellow black men can hear black women speak on the grievous wrongs that we’ve done to them and the only words they can think of is “Not all black men”. Even though I’ve been told I was dateable I feel like no one could possibly want me because I’m not uber masculine physically (short, chubby, small dick) or with my interests. My mom has always been a lot more understanding being my mom and all, but with my sisters they’ve always had a kind of “what’s the point of you being a man and existing if you can’t do anything and everything” attitude and that might be part of why I’m so insecure and angry towards women. I’m expected to be able to do and be everything regardless of the situation, basically be a paragon of masculinity, even though I’ve never been that masculine of a guy. And even though I’m the youngest (with two older sisters) just because I’m a male I’ve always been expected to be the strongest and be on top of it all the time. My dad wasn’t really around growing up since he and my mom divorced before I was born, making me the only male in the house. He stronger than most of us here.Ĭ: I see now how my relationship with my family encourages (and possibly led to) my misogynistic attitudes. and don’t even fix your mouth to say he’s weak, cuz he went public later, even though he KNEW y’all would call him weak for this. cuz he knew what would happen to him if he did.
Like, if big ass Terry Crews doesn’t fight back, shouldn’t that tell you something about sexual assault and how it works on a psychological level? He’s TERRY CREWS! he could have flattened that dude. And don’t even get me started on how I see sistas joking about this and calling the man weak.
Like, watching dudes I know talk about Terry just lets me know who’d make fun of me for being sexually harassed DAILY by a girl I knew in school. cuz you’ve got no clue what we’ve been through.Īnd also, can more of the brothas start talking about this? ESPECIALLY when the assailant is a woman? I feel like we don’t talk about this nearly enough. We also feature LGBT artists and list events, so if you want your event listed, hit us up from the blog or Black Gay Men's Blog On Facebook. Unless you’ve been in that situation before, don’t say a word. Black Gay Men's Blog looks at issues affecting black gay men - sex and dating, health, domestic violence, sexual abuse and anything else of interest to black gay men and the lgbt community.
If he fought back, him being arrested and blacklisted (ie, never being able to provide for his family ever again) would be the BEST case scenario, worst case scenario, he gets shot by a cop. Seriously, shut the fuck up about this “he should have fought back” nonsense. C: As a dude that’s been sexually assaulted, none of y’all say shit about Terry Crews.
