Feb. 27th, 2009 06:19 pm[Error: unknown template qotd] A previous paramore in my life prevailed upon me years ago to get onto one of the Instant Messenger services on the net. As we lived in two different cities he wanted the ability to be able to instant message me when we were both signed on to the computer. He asked, "what handle will you use?".
"Some variation of cinnamonbear I suppose," I replied.
"Oh, I got to be able to get that," he said. "I suspect all the variations will have been taken."
Never challenged me like that. "Just watch me," was all I had to say.
Thus was born, "Osodecanela"; Spanish for 'bear of cinnamon'. (I mean, for crying out loud, what else would you call a man my size and of my coloring?

"Huh? Excuse me? Umm, Sweetheart, the last time I looked, you were black."
"My point, exactly."
"You've lost me."
"I'm always black. Until the day before yesterday, you were white. Well, sort of pink, actually. Now, you're bright red. In the winter, when it's really cold, sometime you look almost blue. I'm always the same color; you're usually changing."
I groaned. Then, I snickered. Then I groaned again. My laughter was enough to make my skin throb.
"What?"
"Hon, please don't try to make me laugh; this hurts too much. I don't do that to you after you've had your hair braided. Besides, you swore you'd hurt me if I did."
Then I snickered again.
"What?!"
"I don't think you're family will buy it, if you try to tell them I'm a person of colors!"

Sort of the obverse of that group of white men who are exclusively attracted to men of (another) color. What can I do? I cannot fake being attracted to a man of color any more than I can fake being attracted to a woman of ANY color. Does that make me a misogynist? LOL.
I need to work out these and many more issues with my GAYnecologist, STAT. LOL.
