What do we (#Blackmen) gain from hating Queer folks and women?! It is disgusting how many of us will shame #Diddy for his potential queerness than his explicitly clear violence towards Cassie. We care so much about his inclusion of other men within his sex life, we turned his name into a slur.

From the #AnthonyMackie interview to the Netflix Series #Adolescence, public commentary and opinion around these two things show we need more robust critical and analytical discussions around masculinity that incorporate black feminist thought/scholars.
