Is anyone sick of BET? First it was about us, but then we sold out to those other. So the representation of our Black women is less is more and the art of Hoism (pronounced as hoe with ism on the end) is encouraged. Even the simplest videos got "video hoes" n them. For instance Happy People. What was the point of having **** women around the top of the room (was it decoration?). Or even Mase had them in his videos, they were clothed but they were still that barbie doll type that is expected by video hoes. Lastly Tip Drill...nuff said on that one
[ but i really dont think that the video thing is that big of a deal.
Typical male response...
That's some str8 BULL! Do u realize what u just said?! U don't think its a big deal?! We are being demeaned by our own ppl and brushing it off like its nothing. R u that ignorant? Is ur blindfold that thick around ur eyes that it makes u completely miss the point? Do u realize that u are the only male perspective on this post and u represent like this? U r just as bad as the artist :cry: Where have all our strong men gone? the ones that used to defend us and be proud of us? are they becoming just as extinct as our true women?

i dont represent every dude on this bored wit my opinion, jus like them chicks in the video dont represent you unless you let them rep for you. and let me get this right, because i dont think its that big of a deal, it makes me ignorant and im also not a real man. thats some str8 bullsh!t.
yall should solve the problem how yall see fit, that would be my solution but everyone does things differently, if you wanna go to a video shoot wit a sign sayin "no mo hoes" then do it if you wanna boycott bet and other entertainers, then do that, if you jus dont wanna watch, then change the channel.
i never said its eye candy, in fact in an earlier post i said i dont watch bet becuase it aint black entertainment. if thats how an artist wants to spend his money and thats how a chick wants to make her money, i dont got a problem with it.

U completely missin the point. Completely. I didn't say u represent males of America, but u r the only male n this room. ANd the females do not represent me, I am simply saying that in the minds of the latest generation of impressionable minds the women on BET are portrayed as what every young girl should strive to be and what men should look for. The way you phrased ur response and organized the thoughts in ur head on this topic came out very ignorish (i know its not a word, but u get the point). U didn't think outside the [male] box, but instead gave a typical male answer with no point to it but....ignorance. Ignorance is just another way of saying that ur mind was incapable of expanding enough to speak on a feminine or more mature level, which is basically analyzing the situation from both sides
