VALENTINA FORNEROLLI SAID: "I’m tired of racism against black gay women". [Note: Valentina is speaking about transvestites].
I’m tired of racism against black gay women. When I say this it’s because I’m truly sick of the unnecessary commentary and idiotic standards that are prevalent in this society. I’m going to cite for you some examples I frequently hear:
“Girl, let your hair grow and straighten it.
Wow look, “nigger” and gay, how embarrassing for black guys.
Hey, girl, yes we like black people so much that you’re our friend.
I could stay here all day citing various examples to show the prejudice I face because of the color of my skin and my features. Ah, I can’t leave out something that recently a girl said to me: Wow you look like those black dolls they put in windows here, with those clothes and red lipstick. I stopped smiling, she noticed and said, “Look I’m not prejudiced, I even have two black people in my family.”
So in the end, my dears, when I say that I’m tired it’s very clear why. I see that to be gay and to be black is very offensive to society, and you can see that there still exists much discrimination against gays and, besides this to be black, it’s over! THAT’S WHY I SAY AND REPEAT I’M TIRED OF THIS RACISM AGAINST BLACK GAY WOMEN
