Surprise, Surprise!:

I gotta give props to Mr. King for lettin the cat outta the bag ... guess what, not every man who has sex with other men is "GAY" (and white and skinny and teaches "straight" men how to dress). I hope the real world will pick up on the bottom line message of this book: peoples' sexual behaviors and the labels they use to describe their behaviors and identities often do not match.

"What A Darn Shame"!!!:

I think Mr. J. King's book is part of his evil plot to self-promote himself & turn even more brothas' on to this nasty-germ traveling phenomenon!!! It's such a shame that a large number of our Beautiful, Handsome, Intelligent, Black men are being turned on & schooled about this *straight from hell* trend! God still has a plan for our Black American men....no matter how the devil tries to turn them out & destroy them as a whole! King, on The Oprah talk show said he still doesnt consider himself... more info

WHY BASH YOUR BROTHA's:

J.L.King, may have meant well with this long an dwordy piece but all he did was badh his own people. He baegan belittling the relationships that gay/bisexual men have with each other in to jsut sexcapades. That is a crime in itself. I never thought I would see the day when one man took the Church's condemnation and made it PC. That hurts alot of people in the process. The Most horrifying thing about the book is that it is being revered for its stereotypes of men. Now he has given homophobia a new weapon... more info
