Well then, I don't feel so strange now.

Women going with their husbands? I don't know about that...
Tang wasn't it awkward? Where were your eyes, or didn't it matter to her? Interesting.

Those anonymous AG ladies Tang speaks of, send me a pm if you want a newbie to come along. Wena, Brick ngiyak' saba, ngeke.

I been to one hoe house, Summit,


some of the chicks i wondered why they were selling, thought some were too pretty for hoe-commerce, i know niggas that wud foot the life bill in a heart beat, just off the strength of the prettiness.

imonlysayingtho.

Been there too...there are some real gems in that place. Amazingly pretty and hot women. However, there's also a lot of nasty chicks too tho. Women I wouldn't touch if you paid me.

I want to visit a strip club. Somewhere clean. I've seen Summit but it looks too dodgy from the outside.

They are ALL filthy by definition halla at me and we can go!

I must warn you tho! U will get R100 notes stuffed in your bra and have nigga randomly grabing your a** and grinding U. Am saying.

Haha!
Don't women randomly go to strip clubs as spectators? I'll wear a hoodie and baggy track pants so its clear I'm not on the pole. SMH. But I'm serious, I'm going one of these days.

Christianity has nothing to do with race. The fact that the missionaries that propagated the religion in South Africa were white does not discredit the truths in the bible. If you read your history, you'll learn not all of them were on good terms with the colony. Missionaries like Dr van der Kemp lived with the Xhosa in their way of life. Xhosa spirituality has always had gaps, like on what happens on the after life, some were filled by the Khoi before the missionaries. The issue of faith is complex, please do not make uninformed statements stemming from an ignorant and often contrived afrocentric perspective.

As one who went through the ritual, I know the effect it had on my spirit, long after I had been circumsised.

You make some good points, but its obvious you are very religious, so your default position will be that Christianity is the whole truth with no 'gaps'. This thing of mixing cultural beliefs and Christianity (if you're a born-again believer) obviously causes trauma.

Perhaps the best thing is to ask, to any one who has already undergone the process, what would you say you took away from the experience?

What profound benefit did you get besides following your culture?

I'm so glad for all the differing opinions here.
Opens up the possibilities.

I've realised though, that black people over time will forget everything they went through and begin to be distant from it, romanticise it (begin to make flippant comparisons to apartheid O.o) and become entangled in more sophisticated ways. Racism today is hardly ever overt, its hard to pin-point and therefore hard to confront because it can be clothed in many 'indignant' ways.

But I trust my 1st instincts. I'm paranoid. I don't believe every white person is a racist (a lot aren't) but I believe there is a system of global white supremacy which seeks to preserve itself by ever-subtle means (which white people individually benefit from). A privilege many fear even owning up to. And I think people like me are needed in the midst of this discourse. There will be plenty to balance us out.

We're crazy, overly-sensitive, perpetual-victims, full of rage. Whatever. We're necessary in reminding folk when the rope gets too short and they begin to hang themselves, because we never lose context for conformity. Till then situations like this letter are shallow jabs, I don't believe Gareth is conscious of his racism as viewed from my tainted perspective. But his comments serve a larger purpose, however unintended, in maintaining a certain social order.

As you were.
What's AG without a race discussion?

Also, I hope you wrap it up.

Just heard this stupid old nutcase on the radio...

Can't remember if it is Sifiso or Andile

"I'm gonna sing you a love song. I want you to know it's for real. I want to you to be true to me so our love will last forever....

This song makes me want to bang my fist against my forehead - repeatedly.

y'all acting like y'all never used to dedicate the shit to people, in hindsight a lotta shit we used to appreciate aint shit no more,  (admittedly some special things stood the test of time)

i cant stand it now myself, but i remember a time when i appreciated it.

General, you sure you never used to make CD's for girls with all sorts of RnB songs on them talking about, ' they remind me of you'?

My dedication was next level, no ca**ette tapes, they were music videos of my fave songs burned on a disk. Aaah... the good old days when guys made an effort.

maybe a new thread on this...  effort thing?

I second that.

I respect your hustle Waylander.
You seem to have a focus, what's your ultimate goal? What drives you when you wake up in the morning?

As for me, money doesn't drive me, even though my job practically safe-guards capitalism.
But, I mean, we all like to have nice things so I can meet you halfway.

I'm surprised you think the site is 'teeming with pseudo-intellectuals'. I always find the views vary to an interesting degree. Quite a few devil's advocates, afrocentrics and apologists. And a few posts to remind everyone not to take everything so seriously.

As for Gareth Cliff's letter, I did nod here and there, but nothing was new really, that's why I didn't comment before. Very few people would disagree that the government is corrupt. I was more interested in what motivated him to write it and whether it was really in the spirit of building the country. Also, I'm still sensitive to wording, perspective and tone used by white people in their criticism of black people, call it a nervous tick *shrug*

I have a major suspicion that SHYHEIM had a ghostwriter, there's no way in hell a kid that young could spit such heat at least I would have believed him if his rhymes were like Kris Kros'....oh! hell no

I had the EXACT same thought watching a kriss kross video this weekend...O.o

Anna, any good read that you can recommend for a nigga?  I have R65.00 voucher from exclusive books becous of my fanatic membership you should join if you haven't already

I actually don't have a membership yet, I always find they don't have the books I want.
I buy from a dude with a random book stall at the mall.
What are you into?
I would recommend 'Say you're one of us' by Uwem Akpan.

A New Earth (don't know if I really wanna read it)

Rather read, 'The Power of Now' first.

I'm reading the last of the 'Conversations with God' series, halfway through 'Indaba my children', halfway through 'The witch of Portobello' by Coelho, about to start 'The beautyful ones are not yet born'.

Deac, I used to read comics (only girl) but i can't even remember them now. I'll give them another try.
