Based on what I've heard about "the golden age" of being black, masculine and gay...Social Media has def made black gay men effeminate, narcissistic, attention seekers that value social status & over substance.

First, I want to say @Sean P is the GOAT and the MVP. Just want to put it out there for the World to know
S/O to @African King for always bringing up some great topics out here. I love you my Nigerian King! Let me know when you're ready to share that $100Millions in inheritance and @NikR I ma need some of your "doctorial" services soon, I feel a little dizzy.
My point is, I wouldn't have been able to meet these three wonderful human beings(and many other fantastic CA folks) if it wasn't for social media. If used properly, it can be an incredible powerful tool to connect humans.
On the other end of the spectrum, I've seen the narcissism, the "double" offline/online personas, and the psychological toll of seeing nothing but negative, degrading, or "perfect" posts all day. Have you ever wondered how you end up on IG, Tumblr or Facebook? Try to be more mindful of this particular question "How do I end up on this social media site?" and watch out for it, you'll see how much of our psych these folks control.Cyrus-Brooks, Nigerian Prince, Sean P and 1 other person dapped this. -

*the exception to this would be the Pride March/Parade/Festival. But even then most of the participants and crowd looked non-descript, and those that were not were more about nudity and debauchery than flamboyant effeminacy. And I am not knocking just regular plain ole' effeminacy here. Maybe the very effeminate gays were just not as "out there" and in your face being obnoxious and attention seeking as some of them seem today?
Also of course I did not know what was going on in certain scenes like the Ballroom culture and all-I just was not a part of that and really not even aware of it so I can speak to this specific thing about black gay men in only a limited extent and all.Cyrus-Brooks, Nigerian Prince, NikR and 1 other person dapped this.
