You can't be serious.

Yup; that's how I read it when I read that back when it was first written.  (Back then, they didn't make those kind of girl-on-girl jokes.  Back then, they barely acknowledged that existed.)




Wait wait wait...
I wanna backtrack a little bit.   

When that X-Men story first came out, that was at the apex of the Disco era and although I was approximately 12 years old at the time, I knew exactly what she [Kitty Pryde] meant because mainstream culture began poking at sexual references at every opportunity.  We saw this in everything: movies, television, radio... Hell, a lot of the Disco songs themselves were very sexually suggestive and comicbook writers at that time stretched the limits of that Comics Code Authority stamp at every opportunity, too.

It's interesting that you think that comment was opposite of what was intended.

@Sinjection

1) Those handmaidens were bathing and pampering Storm to prepare her for dates with Khan. Khan was courting Ororo and trying to win over her affections. No sex was going on. He was trying to be an honorable man towards her.

"...dates with Khan..." Yes, I see. Ororo was being bathed, scented in sweet oils, dressed in seductive silks and Khan was going to turn up on the doorstep with a box of candy, some flowers and a promise to have Ororo home by 8. We'll simply forget that she was available to him for those activities because he abducted her...in effect, raping her archiacally.

Quote
2) She was not seducing him,


Yes she was.

Quote
3) Khan got the upper hand against Ororo in the fight because, A) she was recovering from a death injury done to her spinal chord by Viper (Viper took her by surprise with this betrayal) and B) a huge wall of water knocked both combatants off their feet during the fight.  When the wave subsided enough for them to get their bearings, Khan ended up in an advantageous position. Prior to that, Ororo was fighting him to a standstill. When I said she punched his lights out, I meant she went for him in H-2-H combat. I may be a little fuzzy on a few very minor details, but this is the gist of what happened. I'll have to reread the arc again. It was a fun read.

Some fun date, eh?  ;)

1) I know I'm telling the truth about the two not having sex because they showed up the content of the dates. They danced in the air (thanks to Ororo's dominion over the wind), he showed her the sites of his citadel that spanned like thousands of miles and everything. They always had their clothes on. The most they did in that whole story was kiss. Those handmaidens were just pampering her body and treating her so well to give her a good impression of Khan so she'll know what she'll be getting if she couples with him AND so that Khan has some eye candy on the date. ALL women, if they have sense, are going to want to pretty up for a date. That does not mean sex is going on. He was trying to be as gentlemanly as he could to her under the circumstances without being stupid. He knew there was a risk with her harming his plans if left unmonitored. That said, I don't think he would have taken "no" for an answer from her in response to his advances, but he could have earned a "yes".

2) Well, she had escaped her jailers and was in the process of destroying his citadel when he happened upon her and discovered her betrayal.The fight ensued.

3) Yes, it was a fun date.

Ex-X-Writer and Ex-X-editor Ann Nocenti writes on Storm:

"At her command, oceans rise, breezes cool, rains pummel, tornadoes destroy, sun dries, seas part."

Take from page 24 or 26 of her novel, "Prisoner X"

Pretty nifty! ;)

....2) She was not seducing him, rather, she tried to use his desire to have her as his queen to inspire a change within him. On the other hand, he wanted to win her over without making any change in himself at all. As you can see, it ended up as a clash.

....

Number 2) that might be worse than seducing him.  What was she going to do if she succeeded?
.....
Had he changed his heart, Storm would have probably accepted him as her lover and the two would have become a couple. There's a lot to his character that appeals to her taste in men.

Yeah, Stockholm Syndrome.

I've no doubt you are secure in your knowledge that you have shared with we, the HEF Assembled, your version of the truth and nothing but the truth. And that's what's so startling about these exchanges. This Ororo, whom you assert was written down in how she dealt with doom in doomwar, this Ororo whom you've said that if she'd been written "in character" in that self same story would have marshalled the forces of the X-Men, devined doom's devious mechanations and rained down hellfire on Latveria...this is the Ororo who uses her winds to whisk she and her abductor up into the sky by her winds so they could dance in the clouds. I think if Shuri had been in Ororo's place at that time and she'd had the opportunity to whisk Khan high up into the sky, once they were high enough, Shuri would have stopped having her winds support Khan and dropped her abductor and would-be galactic dictator like a bad habit. Khan would have been splattered all over his kingdom and Shuri would have been mopping up his forces before the X-Men could mount a rescue.

Stockholm Syndrome Storm's strategy of victory through seduction at work.

3) Yes, it was a fun date.

Ray Rice and the now-Mrs. Ray Rice and Ike and Tina Turner might agree with this assessment. Nothing beats a good time out on a date with your lady than beating on your lady and knocking her out on that date.

The x-writers...always showing Storm a good time. Snatched by amorous suitors and whisked away into captivity to be wooed. Meeting only the finest men who create weapons to rid her of her powers, provokes her to anger so that she then stabs that fine gentleman in the heart...and then, just when she is deliriously happy when the man who stole her powers and who she then stabs in the heart proposes marriage, leaves her emotionally destroyed and weeping in the rain (they love having Storm weeping in the rain, don't they?), after that fine gentleman retracts his proposal and walks away, one of Storm's bitterest enemies on his arm as he does so.

Oh....and let's not forget...Storm's exciting nightlife. Where on a mission, she totally loses herself in her assignment. This always prepared, regal Storm is once again seduced, this time not by a man...but by competition and sheer violence in an ARENA. It's all fun and games until somebody knocks her the funk out, ties a chain around her neck and imprisons her. Oh...oh yes...the sexy menage-a-trois action with Storm, Sebastian Shaw, and Emma - the body snatcher - Frost. sssssssizzling!!!

And that doggone Reginald Hudlin comes along, marrying Storm to a King, making her a Queen and an honest woman.

No wonder some misguided Storm fanatics and seX-Men addicts hate him so.

No. As long as this exists and as long as I suspect many in the x-fanatic LGBT LCBRD camp may harbor this sort of racism, I see Queer and Feminism as inconsistent with Black Power and pride.

This proud, black LBGT feminist thinks you should stop talking about things you obviously know nothing about. Then again, this *is* HEF. Land of the (n)ignorant, home of the long-winded.

Storms of Carnage: The Black Panther UNLEASHED (AWESOME FAN FILM)


That film was ON POINT!! The accents, the dialogue, the characterization? On point. The premise? Not entirely sure what it is. Not sure why this thing would bring TChalla himself into the picture, when...even without Wakanda's resources...he can eradicate these guys at a distance and with almost zero effort on his part. Fight choreography? Good work, especially considering the restraints in manpower, special effects, etc. But. There was too much Chinese gungfu which my eyes instantly picked up. Tiger Style. Leopard Style. Very appropriate to the character TChalla [ the Lion Style of Africa and seen in Capoeiristas who are adepts of Xango the orixa ] and the Leopard Style are part of African martial arts too. Were there in Africa FIRST, in fact. Would have liked to see Capoeira and an assortment of other African styles represented, like the various and varied grappling and weapon styles blended with Capoeira [ which has a very pronounced and varied styles of grappling and weapons itself, including guns ].

"...But I...am ready to die!!"

Cold ending. Love the SFX there, again especially because of the low budget. That was made on pure love and passion and dedication to their craft.

Was there enough space for t'Challa to develop a Capoeira stance in that little shed?   ...in that scene?

I "should stop talking about things I obviously know nothing about"....riiiiiigggghhhht. http://gaydowntownla.tripod.com/id26.html

The primacy of whiteness in the gay community often manifests as internalized racism. In “No blacks allowed,” Keith Boykin argues that “in a culture that devalues black males and elevates white males,” black men deal with issues of self-hatred that white men do not. Boykin argues that this racial self-hatred makes gay black men see other gay black men as unsuitable sexual partners and white males as ultimate sexual partners.

Free to be you, LBGT. Free to (n)ignorant, long winded and me.

You don't like what I post, put me on your (n)ignore list while continuing to turn a blind eye to the racists in your rainbow camp.

You know what? I'll save you the trouble. Welcome to your own (n)ignore list. Enjoy your stay.
