Two weeks ago, Liz and Madame Noire premiered the inaugural episode of their web-series “Ask A Black Man” where a panel of ninjas, including myself, were asked various questions about what life was like for a single Black male.
Shenanigans ensued. Hell, the comments section over at Madame Noire resembled what I’m fairly certain our forefathers were afraid of: democracy gone wrong. Yes, it’s true everybody does have a voice, but they really never should have given some of you ninjas freedom keyboards.
Well, because Liz apparently likes starting fires as much as I do [Liz's edit: LOL YES, I DO!], I’m back for a second episode, which happens to be the third episode. This is the sex episode where a different panel of hombres talk about coyotes mulattoes staplers economics sex. Also, as the series drops a new episode every Wednesday, for those of you who missed last week’s because we didn’t pub it here, feel free to go check it out. It features the homey Streetz from SingleBlackMale.org.
So sit back, relax, and enjoy the vibe as Panama and a gang of ninjas wax philosophical about the three letter word we all love. Pressy play. Diddy. (Or go check it out at Madame Noire!)
P.S. The full and uncut version of this episode will air on Ask A Black Man at 6pm EST tonight. It will feature more questions, more answers and all around a fun time. Make sure you log on to Madame Noire to see it.
Next to the faux-informative FB posts about Toyota Camrys and Tide detergent, the comments section of Madame Noire is the most painfully annoying thing in the world. Some of those Ninja-ettes don’t read. If reading only the title of an article and then commenting angrily on their FB wall was currency those bishes would be richie rich!
Great job to you, God bless and God speed.
Hahaha at calling out the brands. I guess it’s good to know them FB posts are working LOLOL.
I’m a sensitive woman but daaaaaaaamn. It’s like they read/watch something completely different. Those women are the definition of angry like on some all men must pay tip. I really didn’t get their stance and some were reaching into LaLa land with their opinions. I don’t know how PJ takes it in stride. I would be firing away all up in the comments section.
That’s kinda sad though…
If you can’t fully understand your own sex, how the hell are you gonna understand the opposite sex?
You’re surprised at angry women unloading on men? That was my childhood. Welcome to the real world, women. This is what the female half of the species is truly like.
Or maybe I’m just projecting my emotionally abuse mother onto these women.
Lol i’m not really surprised. I just was shocked at how bad it was. I don’t know many women like that so I can’t relate.
If you think Madame Noire’s comments section is bad, you should see what’s going on over at Clutch Magazine right now, LMAO!!!
Kevin Hart’s about to lose a whole bunch of hoodrats smh!
…And beauty challenged women with serious psycho logical issues (Yes, I made it two words for a reason, LMAO!).
You better claim copyrights on that!
http://www.clutchmagonline.com/2012/04/kevin-hart-has-an-interesting-message-for-black-women/
…..oh goodness.
Wow…the Black Blog Tea Party is for real. Seriously, if I was a White girl in high school who had a thing for a brother, but wasn’t sure if he’d be interested in dating out, I’d show him these comments. He wouldn’t want to look at his own mother at that.
Either that, or there needs to be a d1ck delivery service for these women. Maybe it’ll calm their nerves at least.
The funny part about all of that? Most of the women there are in their early to mid 20′s.
That is tragic.
It really is bananas. Lord help them for they know not what they do!!!
@ Breezy
Girllllll, you know I’m a Clutchette for life, what is you tryna say-the commentors have no sense of humor?! are uptight?! hmmmmm
tomorrow’s post?
Gurllll, I don’t think we need that kinda mess over here with us.
If it is, let’s hope that it will be discussed with rational thinking by women over here, LOL!!!
There you go starting things….HUSH!
I will give the women credit over here. All of you did discuss the Mary J. Blige Burger King scandal in a calm and reasonable (yet utterly hilarious) manner.
@ PA
Blasphemy! Talking ish about my sorority!
All I’ll say is they have a tendency to post without thinking things through and say things primarily out of emotion instead of thinking level headed. If they did that, it would lead to a lot less flame wars as well as a lot less trolling on behalf of certain people.
Ah yes, the comment section on a feminst blog. It’s where all the current and future spinsters out themselves.
@black yoda,
In defense of Clutch magazine, it’s a great site for black women to congregate and have intelligent discourse -if you may. What happens is that, folks lack HUMOR! Woiiii! I can only count THREE of us (women contributors) that could give two hoots! If commentors from this site migrated there for a day, guess what ya’ll would shut that place down….#CLUTCHETTE for life doe!
I heart this mini series!!!
<3!!
This is very interesting. Good job.
Minute 5:29 made this whole video.
LOL! When I saw it for the first time on the rough edit, I hollered!! I think he did this a few times on the extended cut. smh.
That face he made when it dude said foreplay was enough was PRICELESS! I hollered when I saw that cuz his expression summed up exactly what I was thinking. LOL
Y’all need to make a gif for this if you haven’t already.
i was soooo thinking about it LOL.
Yes! That’s “Chile please” look gave me all kinds of life!
That.
LMAO it was everything! It was the total summation of “You need more people.” He was lookin like, “no you are NOT finna fix you mouf to say that.”
LOLOL
Muerto!!! Just dead…3 times over.
I had to screen shot it for the next time I’m feeling down. Instant pick-me-up!
I need to make it my wallpaper so I can just flash it when somebody says something as crazy as “foreplay is enough”.
Is there a extended version to this one like the other two?
yup. airs at 6pm EST on madamenoire.com
Can’t believe the dudes admitted that they faked it. That was the best kept secret fellas!
Lol, girl you ain’t know! I found that out while having a roundtable discussion amongst friends at a grad school cookout. Had me floored for real. LOL
I didn’t know this until a month ago. I have so many questions, as to why, how and when-signs and symbols!
-TUK- I think this is your forte!
That it is. Unfortunately, I’m unable to participate, as I live in Chicago. Seems like a lot of fun, educating the the world and all…
Very shocking admission. Scientifically, the ejaculation and the orgasm are two separate entities and dont necessarily have to coincide for the male. Interesante! *Rubs hands together*
Ninjas get tired too….stiffen up, roll eyes and SCENE…Goodnight
*claps, claps, claps*
Alright, so , these videos are really getting my engines going & Kela’s facial expressions aren’t saying what I wanna say (is that legal? what “I” wanna say lol?)!!! Anyhoo, I’d be more than intrigued to see an Ask A Black Woman counterpart at the the end of this series. NOTE: none of the women featured can be candidates for Housewives, Basketball Wives, or basically any immoral reality show. I’m talkin sistahs with degrees, or as Kanye would put it, “She got that ambition, baby…” Carry on! Keep content like this in my Twitter feed, please
I like this idea….not sure a bunch of women would wanna watch another bunch of diff women talk about dating but maybe there could be a remix somehow.
Could the remix be a combination panel of men and women…just a suggestion. Either way I love the series and will make sure I tune in later tonight at 6PM for the extended episode. Fantabulous job Liz and Panama is always a cutie!
Nah, when there are women in the room, the level of male honesty plummets by 75%.
True. I’d have to get really ballsy men (i guess like Panama) who wouldn’t care about feelings and stepping on toes in front of women. Could be interesting!
Black Medici, you should do this
Only if I can kick women out of the room for being disruptive, which is bound to happen.
You rang???? LMAO!!!!
Thanks! I am glad people enjoy the extended episodes! They definitely show the stuff I thought was super hilarious on set lolol.
We all know how conversations with women end. Asking a panel of men has a new twist because its like pulling nails to get your boyfriend/husband/”bedbuddy” to talk about these things or simply be honest about these things in every day life.
The last time that happened, it ignited a Black Web War (BWW I) began.
In case you forgot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWTXhHABj_A&
So the dude who said that he could do foreplay and be fine with nothing else…uhm, did y’all revoke his man-card or what? Cuz that sounded very un-manlike. LOL
I might get my woman-card revoked for this but I happen to agree that sex doesn’t have to be held out to a certain timetable in order to establish something real. In some cases you can tell if a dude is all about just banging anyway. If you can’t tell, then I will say that you shouldn’t be having sex with him…not until you know or are just comfy enough to do it and consequences (regarding the status w/dude, not STD’s and pregnancy and stuff like that) be damned.
I like the series. And judging by what I hear over here at VSB, I’ll skip the comments section at Madame Noir. LOL
@ Mo-VSS
I rejected his man card. I don’t know if that counts for anything…woi!!
Mo, read them for entertainment purposes. Do not deny yourself. They call these dudes everything under the sun even questioning their mommas.
I said this further downthread – I went to Madame Noire and peeped his profile. He is bi-sexual. And as I watched and re-watched this, peeping his lack of contribution and his one very off comment, this dude is leaning
to the left. to the left.
They can cut him off the roster.
My comment is in response to the guy who said Only foreplay!
As soon as he said it I thought, oh nice, we’re integrating orientations!
LMAO. I agree. My head tilted all the way right like is he on the right panel? Smh
Lol Mo……you and these avatars! This pic is very pretty. I didnt even realize this was you until I read mena’s comment.
Yes! Nice Avi
Thanks ladies!
“sex doesn’t have to be held out to a certain timetable in order to establish something real. In some cases you can tell if a dude is all about just banging anyway.”
Totally agree. That 90 day rule is that Steve Harvey B.S. that he stole from Joan off of Girlfriends and we see how her ficticious relationships were. She was mostly “the single friend”.
Women need to realize all guys want to bang! Women need to learn how to differentiate between the man-ho who will hit-and-quit-it and the guy who is interested in a relationship. When I observe men, I can easily tell the one from the other. Unfortunately, I notice more hit and quit types (including educated hitters and quitters).
I’m one of those women who holds out. I don’t stick to any specific number like 90, that’s childish and you can’t really put a time table on your feelings. I basically wait until I am satisfied the man wants to be with me long term. I reaaaaalllly enjoy s.ex to a borderline nympho level so I cannot induldge my desires like that. If I did, I would sleep with him and him and him and him. I’m one of those chick logic chicks who can’t separate emotion from s.ex. I need love. LL Cool J. Without it, icant. No matter how much I’m feeling him, I wait. It works for me but I know not everyone agrees with this.
Does it work though is the question?
Yes it works for me. It’s better for my emotions and overall mental state. People put their best foot forward. I’m sorry but some people really don’t show their @ss or baggage right away. It takes time for me to get to know someone and I would like to get to know someone fully before we go there.
But does it provide the results i.e. you find and keep a man? I mean if the point of all of this is to be safe and feel good, why does a man have to suffer – why not just buy a puppy?
You know that about yourself so that works. I know I’m similar. There was only one time I ended up saying “eff it” cuz it’s what I wanted to do. But, overall making sure one is comfortable with the other person and has a relatively good idea of whether they are on the same page with the person they are considering taking it there with.
Bingo. Everyone is diff and should be true to themselves. I know women who couldn’t care less about who they s.ex and their happy so it works for them. I’m different and I don’t need to catch a case in my old age or end up angry in the comments section of some blog.
Totally agree. I can’t do the hold out just to hold out thing. If I’m with a guy for a night or a year the sex part usually comes pretty fast. If he sleeps with you, that doesn’t mean that’s all he wants. They ALL want to sleep with you.
I just can’t proceed without the sex. It’s like a scratch I have to get out of the way until I can even get any further. Go on judge me!
” I just can’t proceed without the sex. It’s like a scratch I have to get out of the way until I can even get any further. Go on judge me!”
I’m judging you alright. Judging you to be awesome
Love the pic!
Thank you!
Mo, your new avi. is dearly my dear. Loving the hair and all the curls…jelly!!!!
Lol, thanks!
maybe to him just doing foreplay meant oral… i know i have been in situations in which oral (to completion) was fine for me and my partner… depends on what someone thinks is foreplay imo…
@Mo-VSS- What’s up ma. What you doin after this?
LOL.
I really enjoyed this series. The other one, was bleh!
Observations
1.) PJ-you gave quiet boy(the one on the extreme left) an ESE(epic side eye) when he said that foreplay was enough! When I grow up, I just want to ese folks like!!!!!
2.) Jay, your position in my life seems like it MAY(0.1% chance) take a backseat, dude in a plaid red shirt is locked up with a nice fade(is that what its called?!) and he kiiiiiiiyute
3.) The interviewer is HOOOOOOOT!!! Love the outfit and red lip girl…WERRRRRRRK!
4.) Liz-Proud of you ma
-I do realize that my comments are out of this world, no need to point out-
On the side: Sweet Brown needs to join the VSB commentary section, she kray kray more than me! Enjoy!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaAd8OuwwPk
LOL thanks for your comments. I agree with EVERYTHING esp the plaid shirt guy. He smelled good during the casting call…so I was biased LOL.
@ Liz,
oooooh girrrrl!!! faarrrrreal…..hmmmm!!!!!!
Yeah, he’s about to get a NICE fan base! Me included…shhh!
Hahhahahaha. He has an interesting life story. Not sure if it came up on his bio writeup but I remember thinking he def has an intriguing story.
@ Liz,
The more you drop tidbits, the more I’m over intrigued. His bio link, would be a great starting point.
here ya go: http://madamenoire.com/149690/ask-a-black-man-cast-meet-marco-g/
Looks like a yarmulke on his head. He couldn’t decide if he wanted dreads or it cut low and lined up? So he got half and half? Goes off the read his bio. I hope its more interesting that that weird hair he has.
@ A Woman’s Eyes- LMMFAO!!! I was thinkin that too, but as a man I couldn’t say anything without it being interpreted as hatin, so thank you for pointing out the obvious lolol
I’m back. His half-and-half hair is much more interesting than his bio. I wonder if I’d be drunk if I did a drinking game for every time he used the word “excellence” And I don’t like what he did to his head. The hair was doing way too much. And the stud in his nose looks like he stole a baby’s earring.
girrrrrrl, I saw his bio and the excellence shid threw me off!——>he’s an actor too, so which means we goin to be starving and I’m African-I ain’t come to Amerikka to experience poverty.
*i like his locks tho*
is that right?! hmmmmmmmmmmm.
I hope you natural hair is thick and kinked up like glue, coz imma bout to fight!!! and snatch bits and pieces of it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhBM7H-ggvY&feature=list_related&playnext=1&list=AL94UKMTqg-9Bvjqgau0MD0WJLnS3xDkeh
He was definitely a cutie.
I hollered in the preview clips when the married dude Stephen said he wanted to be the dude, putting it down on his woman. The man “who did that”…I really, really, really didn’t see him being that dude AT ALL! LOL
He KILT me when he said it was a Smooth Criminal move, leaving the scene of the crime.
It’s always the sweet, quiet ones that end up the Smoothest Criminals
Naw, now we gonna fight. Marco is fiiiiiiinnnnneeeee….. At least I know his name and not dude in the plaid red shirt. All kinds of yummy going on there.
girl which one is Marco-the one in the white striped shirt?! I found him yummylicious too. But I’m good on fighting for him…..
OH NO this Nut did not just change her name to reflect Jay/Red Plaid Dude…DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!
yes mama I did.
Goodmorning!!!
Side note: I just noticed that redplaiddude, threads his eyebrows! Oi!——>I guess our first date, we’ll be at the Chinese threading station in the mall!!!
Hmm. He is half Indian though. Maybe that’s how he gets down culturally lol.
He is MIXXXXXXED with INDIAN?! It’s a motherloving wrap-that means my daughter will have some long hair like Rampanzelle.
-Liz keep the info flowing!
Girl you know I got all the 411. Step into my office!
I looked at it….and then looked some more, and———————————concluded, JAY is my baby daddy for life! It was fun while it lasted. Thank you.
I love how Panama, a three (allegedly) is on the THIRD episode. Symmetry.
I also love how y’all basically got the Roseless Bulls starting lineup this panel. Marco look like CJ Watson and Stephen over there giving me Joakim Noah.
Very entertaining episode! LOL
As a militant Knick fan, I REBUKE the Bulls in the name of the Lord!
Carry on.
Eaux. Well.
*smize*
Officially LOVE Todd. I’ve been rebuking them since birth!
GO KNICKS!!!!!!!
Aye, how are the knicks doing these days? Don’t they have the best record in the NBA? Oh wait…
