Dear GWMs

Dear gay white males:

When you slide into my DM’s with, “you’re pretty cute for a black guy,” realize this isn’t a compliment. It’s a microagression and worthy of a black eye.

Do I have your attention?

 Good.

Don’t misunderstand.

This isn’t some oppression olympics, man.

 But when you fill my inbox with, “Is it true what they say about you dudes of a certain hue?” it’s enough to make me spew.

Your obsession with whether my erection lives up to the hype of the stereotype is cause for correction.

I won’t let you objectify and fetishize me.

Nah, son. My body isn’t a curio, an oddity, a commodity to be thrown away once you’ve had your fun.

You must be on one if you think I’ll be your under cover lover. Good enough for a quick fuck but not to bring home to Mother?

You must be mistaking me for some other brother.

I refuse to be seen as a dick with legs.

 I’m a complex, whole human being and will accept nothing less than the utmost respect.

Before you fill my mentions with butt-hurt replies, take a second for introspection, analyze my actual words and not what you think you heard.
