Equality

Here's the thing about equality everyone wants it but no ones to actually do it.* Here's why  if everyone was equal there would be no one to discriminate against, no one to aim animosity toward, and no one to blame the problems of society on. It would also mean that we'd have to teach our kids that the color of a persons skin is not indicative of the persons behavior and that they should instead judge them by the content of their character. As well as education them on the fact that they are free to date whom ever they wish** without remarks like 'just don't bring home a black boy/girl' or 'couldn't you find a nice girl/boy you're on race'. Because they in turn internalize those statements and make similar statement like 'you're cute for a black guy'. which just perpetuates inequality.

How elections work in America vs A Democracy

1st: We live in a Republic not a Democracy.

• A true  democracy is by a simple google search a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives.

• A republic based off of dictionary.com is a state in which the supreme power rests in the body of citizens entitled to vote and is exercised by representatives chosen directly or indirectly by them
• For those who don't really understand what this means basically in a republic the rule of the majority is restricted vs a democracy which doesn't restrict the majority.

2nd: Why do you care about this?

• Because the electoral college is that restriction that keeps the majority from imposing its will on few. 
• how the electoral college works each state has a certain number of votes that it can cast. The number of votes a state has is based on the the number of states representatives in congress ie. 2 senators and the number representatives of the state 
• The number of representative changes based on the population of the state.
• Most states with the exception of Maine and Nebraska typically cast all there votes for 1 candidate or another , while Maine and Nebraska split there votes for the candidates.

3rd: How they do they decide how to cast the electoral votes.

• This is where the flaw in the electoral college is really exposed.
• The electoral college votes are cast for the candidate that won the popular vote within that state.
• What does that mean? 
• Basically the majority of the state decides who the state as a whole is going to vote for.
• Seems unfair? 
• It is unfair because the majority is imposing its will on the few with in the state but can't impose it's will through out the nation.

The Grindr Experience or (Catfishing cause that's what y'all are gonna call it)

So chances are if your reading this you probably know me and if not oh well your about to get a glimpse inside of my head.
  Roughly a year ago I create a fake grindr profile just to serve my own curiosity and just to verify an idea that was just floating around in the back of my mind. You see as LGBT man of color I have found it incredible hard to find someone to date let alone have a relationship with. So the fake grindr profile came into existences. The only stat that was on the page for the first day was the age 23(I believe) and the ethnicity  was White. Within the first hour of the profile going online it had 10 new messages. I couldn't get though those without someone new trying to talk to this "person" this went on for about 3 months. With various guys trying really hard to get in"his" pants sending unsolicited dick & ass pics trying to figure where "he" was.  I also managed to gleam some information from some of them about why they refuse to do anything with a black guy and this I swear to god is literally what someone said "They have a smell to them" I was like wait what?!? and the sad thing is he wasn't the only one to say it! So not only did I prove myself right in the I was profoundly offended by that statement.

Just to be clear my assumption when I started this experiment was that a majority of gay guys are attracted to primarily white guys.
