Now, let's talk about some things in this video:
- He starts off talking about his hair. OK, yes, it does look nice, but why all this vanity? Thinking better of it, he's done some other videos completely dedicated to how nice his hair looks, but this is kinda awkward, especially since he doesn't take off his shades.
- He's basically talking about how he "fell in love" with a stripper and isn't sure if he could have a relationship with one. Now, firstly, I think it's impossible to fall in love with a stripper if your "love at first sight" is you looking at how good they can twirl a pole or work their hips. That's not love, that's lust. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. Love is need, lust is want. I don't think anyone has ever looked at a stripper and thought, "Gee whiz, I'd really love to take her/him out to the movies or maybe a nice dinner and a walk on the beach." Men do not think that with titties/ass/crotch swinging in their face. Love/dating is the furtherest thing, I'm sure. #but if there's evident to the contrary, please share#. Also, why did he make mention of the stripper being multiracial? He said it in that way, which implies that of course he looks good, he's multiracial. I just think it's weird when people shout out a person's color like it's the cincher that proves their beauty. How can America come to recognize that everyone's the same underneath if we keep making color such a big thing? Secondly, why couldn't you have a meaningful relationship with a stripper? What they do as an occupation shouldn't interfere with if you like them AS A PERSON AND NOT A PIECE OF HOTNESS. I mean, if they tell you and you know, what's the problem? And the saying goes, "YOU CAN'T TURN A HO INTO A HOUSEWIFE," well, maybe not a "ho," but just because someone takes their clothes off and dances for YOUR entertainment doesn't make them a ho; it makes them a performer. Now, if you're going out when them and they're dipping around with a whole bunch of other dudes or girls, playing you wrong, then yeah, they're a ho, but a man or woman that makes their bread by grinding to the beat is NOT a "ho". And unfortunately, that's just one of the things that has been trashed around throughout our culture. Stripping is not the worst job anyone could have; if strippers like to do it, what's your problem? Why does it bother you so much?
- He mentions a video he put up the other day. The other day, he did put up a video when he was talking about how "it's not your battle, it's the Lord's," but for some reason, he took it down when he put this one up. Strange. But this suggests to me something of a classic Christian hypocrisy. I don't mean to come off sacrilegious, because I do believe in God and respect all faiths, but for most people, Christian and hypocrite should be used interchangeably. Isn't Christianity (or really any religion) concerned with principles like, judge not, lest ye be judged and how we should all love our neighbor? A true Christian, or someone who calls them self a Christian, (or really anyone who isn't an asshole), should recognize that we, regardless of what we've done or will do, are all God's children, (or ordinary, decent people for the atheist/agnostic crowd) and deserve to be loved and respected. He's acknowledged that he is not perfect, nor is anyone, but for a Christian to not recognize this is just sad. It's like, people who go to church Sunday morning were the main ones out all night Saturday. Maybe that's why people don't like religion, most people don't learn anything.
