Spare us the Roger Troutman connection. You are only interested in posting a picture of a bi racial woman, any bi racial woman. Troutman does not help her case at all. Is she was his daughter, that would make her 2% more interesting.
This. This cat is all the way gone on the bi-racial thing. Bi-racial women are beautiful. Pure African Women are beautiful. African American women are beautiful. So......yeah.

So getting back to the story, what's wrong with a straight man refusing to kiss a trans woman? Nothing if you ask me.

I have read numerous posts since it was announced that the CIAA Tournament would move from Charlotte, NC to Baltimore, MD in 2021. One of the constant themes that I have seen is so many people are calling it a “bad” or “stupid” move. For some reason people feel the need to make Charlotte the home of the tournament forever. The CIAA tournament started in Washington, DC in 1946. Since that time is has also been held in Durham, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Hampton, Norfolk, Richmond, Raleigh and yes even Baltimore, MD.
For the last 13 years, the tournament has been held in Charlotte. While in Charlotte, we saw growth of the people that came to the city for the 6-day event, we also saw many other factors that did not benefit our schools. Prior to Charlotte when the tournament was in Raleigh, much of the tournament atmosphere was centered around the basketball games as well as officially recognized CIAA events and concerts. The location of the arena in Raleigh which is situated away from downtown was a big factor in helping with game attendance. When it was announced that the tournament was moving to Charlotte, every bar, club, nightclub, hotel, restaurant in Charlotte prepared for a big pay day. While the city has seen an impact of $50 million plus, each of the schools participating are seeing a mere $1 million for participation. Not to mention the mega party/concert promoters that are getting paid all week long for hosting “unofficial CIAA events” making thousands and thousands of dollars using our schools as promotional tools with the institutions receiving no kick back. While this type of thing obviously happened in other cities prior to Charlotte, it was to a much lesser degree as no city has had the Uptown availability that Charlotte has.
For those of that go yearly, we have also seen countless issues that are borderline racist if not blatant racism from hotels, restaurants, and other businesses. We have seen hotel rates for a Super 8 room go from $59 to $500 a night. While people will be quick to say wait until you see the Baltimore hotel rates, we understand that Baltimore might already be generally higher but what has happened in Charlotte has been seemingly criminal. We have seen the pictures of the receipts from restaurants that charged a CIAA surcharge for Black patrons that looked like they were in town for the tournament but other patrons at the restaurant at the same time weren’t charged those fees. The list goes on and on. While Charlotte has been great for the exposure of the tournament on the national level, I don’t think it has been that great for growth of our already struggling institutions or great for all patrons that are bringing a huge economic impact to a city.
On to the biggest complaints that I am seeing is people continue to talk about is potential crime issues in Baltimore. NEWSFLASH!, Charlotte had many serious crime issues as well during the week of the tournament. In 2014, two people were shot at a party where Diddy was performing. That same year, the Sheraton Hotel lost their liquor license because of a shooting inside the hotel lobby. In 2015, two men were shot at an “unofficial” CIAA party at the Label Night Club. Also in 2015, two people were shot at a party hosted by T.I. and Young Jeezy. In 2016, there was a shooting where three people were charged with firing 40-50 rounds from an AK47 into the Hyatt Hotel lobby. In 2017, there was a shooting in Uptown were over 80 shots were fired at one time on the final night of the tournament. In 2018, rapper Young Dolph’s car was shot over 100 times in Uptown by unknown assailants. Also in 2018, DaQuan Shannon a 17-year old unarmed teen was shot and killed after a fight. I am just mentioning a few situations, however THERE WERE MANY MORE! So, while everyone is screaming Baltimore will be terrible, the facts state that tournament in Charlotte could be labeled as unsafe as well.
The second biggest issue that I see people addressing is that the majority of CIAA schools are in North Carolina and it simply doesn’t make sense to go away from that base. If you have ever attended any CIAA Tournament game, you will find a very limited number of current college students at the tournament. The majority of patrons are alumni of these institutions. The Washington, DC, Baltimore, Northern, Virginia area alone has a huge HBCU alumni base. Baltimore is also closer to major cities like Philadelphia and New York than say Charlotte is to a major city like Atlanta. Again, there is a huge HBCU and CIAA alumni presence in those cities. Time will tell if the move will benefit actual game attendance, but I have a feeling it will do surprisingly well in Baltimore. Surely the powers to be at the CIAA took all of this and more into consideration. The tournament has done well and continues to be the most successful HBCU tournament as well as one of the more successful conference tournaments regardless of division. I often hear people say no one is buying tickets to the games, as someone who has been yearly for quite some time, I beg to differ. There are more people purchasing tickets to the games than you would imagine. What happens if someone goes to a certain school and both their men’s and women’s teams lose early in the week, they might not attend any more of the games until the Championship games just to see who wins. Regardless of what the body in the seats may seem, the CIAA has made the money from those ticket books.
Finally, I am excited to see the potential positive economic impact to the city of Baltimore, a city that needs it. I know this was long post, but I think many people making statements and assumptions have never truly experienced the tournament or don’t think that the individuals in charge at the CIAA have considered all of the potential issues that might come with leaving Charlotte and heading north to Baltimore. I look forward to the tournament being in Baltimore over the next two years and hope that they do an exceptional job hosting it. And oh yeah…… Go VSU!

Historically, I don't agree with you that much Mr. Knowitall. But gaht-dangit!!! I agree with every bit of what you just wrote! It was actually a very good read, so no apologies for its length. People don't understand the sheer amount of CIAA and HBCU graduates concentrated in the DMV (and Philly/NYC). I believe the tournament will continue to be successful. Just in a different place. So as my man "Beans" put it in the old 2002 (and 2005) Hood-Classic "State Property"....GET DOWN or LAY DOWN! In other words, come, or don't come. But just quit your belly-aching, or leave it alone. Or quit your belly-achin' and get on board. This tournament will be in the south for another 2 years before it goes "Up Norf"...So just enjoy it now, and be ready for a different experience in a couple years.

Neymar, you are deflecting and you’re all over the place and I think I know why. Anyone can initially believe someone is attractive walking down the street. That’s not the issue lil homie. The question is would you date a transgender person and if so, if you found them “attractive” would you do the nasty with them whether their junk was the focus or not?

Neymar, you are playing stupid. If you were attracted to a transgender person walking down the street and you ended up in bed with them and they pull out a dick, are you going to put it in your mouth? 
Who you were walking down the street and ended in bed with a woman who happened to have a strap on in her purse would you suck that strap on?
This comes from guys of your generation growing up on early porn and the unrealistic expectations and scenarios that came from fictionalized sex. Just because there is a penis in the room doesnt mean it is the focus, and even that extreme example aside we are talking about gender and how we socially recognize people.
Thinking this:
Is attractive doesn't make anybody gay because penis or not she projects the image of a woman. If she appears to be a woman, and classifies herself as a woman than what is in the pants(Which nobody is seeing in everyday life) makes no difference.
Well you know what Slim. You and the rest of you youngins can roll like that. Do what pleases you. You still never really answered CU's question. But I ain't gonna dwell on that. Call us ol' heads if you want to. I will cop to that and won't be not one bit ashamed of it! If we are speaking hypothetically...if the chick in those pictures was in my crib, and took her pants off and she had extra plumbing, that person is taking an Uber/cab or that person's own car or truck outta there. If I was at her crib, I'd be on the first thing smoking on up outta there, doing my best Usain Bolt impression. Look, I get all the PC stuff and what have you, but as for me myself personally (I did that on purpose)...Ain't no way on God's Green EARTH I'm layin' up with a person born with male parts that is now claiming female. If that is what blows your skirt up, so be it. I ain't even gonna trip. I refuse to be bullied into some nonsense saying I ain't ish for wanting to stay around for that nonsense. You gotta be outta your rabid-arse mind. Thank GOD I'm married (20 years), came of age in the 80's and early 90's and know my wife like that. This new-millennium ish is for the birds!!!  Y'all WHHHHHIIIILIN!!

I was angry when I heard that it could have been a hate crime. I was like "here we go again."
Now that they are saying it was brotha who did it, I have kept that same energy. I am pissed that we killed our own. Shoot, people shouldn't be killing people ANYWHERE at ANYTIME in a perfect world, no matter the color. Murder pisses me off.

So Baltimore had the highest bid for the CIAA? If so, then complaining about it now won't do any good. I'm surprised that the city that won the bid does not have a host school(Bowie is 28 miles away), but other than that, I always have a great time whenever I visit Baltimore! I think the city will roll out the red carpet for the CIAA. Have there ever been other basketball tournaments in Baltimore in the past?
The Colonial Athletic Association (2013-2015) https://baltimore.org/video/caa-mens-hoops-tournament-comes-baltimoreAnd no worries about the host school being 28 miles away. The MARC train from campus goes right into downtown, and there are a TON of alumni in the BMore City/County area.

Folk ain’t going to games in Charlotte; heck more people be at some of the parties than the games on any given day! These party contribute to the atmosphere but nothing to the conference, schools or kids.
Shut the parties down and Market the games so folk come back and support good basketball.
BOOM. Not to say the other man's ice is colder (because it ain't), but a couple of D-I conferences have hosted their tournaments there (including the CAA) and from what I remember they did pretty well. There will still be parties and get-togethers and all of that with the convention center and all that other stuff down the street, and there are plenty of eateries etc. Enjoy the seafood. You just never know, Baltimore might do well with this. I know you North Carolinians (well some of you at least) are salty that it's moving away, but shoot, now you will know how it feels to have to take that loooooooong-arse hump to go to the tournament. That is what we (BSU, VUU and VSU and now Lincoln) have been doing FOE-eva! Look at it this way. At least Baltimore has a decent amount of black culture, and an HBCU footprint with Morgan and Coppin and their alums right up the street (not to mention the BSU crew). Think of where the conference championship football game is right now    .... I'm jus' sayin'... Try not to cuss me out in this response too much. I know y'all hotter than fish grease right about now. Y'all will be aight.
