Big Boyz & Fashion

Big Boyz can be fashionable in Hip-Hop Urban Wear...

BUT where do we go when we have a trendy boutique style of dress??? H&M is a no winner with there European style deigns, le Cheatau's biggest size in pants is a 36, but cut like a 28, the Gap only offers Big & Tall sizes online like we don't shop and Express, Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein and a host of other's forgot we more meaty men even exist...
I being of thicker propotions (36 waist & xl shirt) and surrounded by men of larger portions almost daily, set out to search and find designer's, stores and locations where we can be just as fab as we wanna be, stay tuned for future related post...
Dr. Jay's perfect for you Big Sexy Urban Fella's tryna get your sexy on,... Size's range up to 56 in pants & 6x in shirts: http://search.drjays.com/search?cmd=main&chain=C-55
Old Navy my absolute favorite place to shop, although they very rarely carry sizes over 38-40 waist/34 length and xxl shirts, the web site is loaded with large sizes and sales... They offer a variety of denim cuts to flatter any body type... I personally prefer Old Navy's Boot Cut Jeans in size 36/36, My length is really 34, but I like my jeans to fall over my boot, a very trendy look this season... Subcribe to Old Navy's page and receive weekly sales, promotions and new items: http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/division.do?cid=5155

I have a question?
Sean John has a undeniably hot urban line, But where's the items we see on the run ways during his fabolous shows? like the floor length fur coats, the trendy street wear and the over the top tailored dressy wear??? http://www.seanjohn.com/

Thing's Hallmark Don't Say... BUT SHOULD!

My tire was thumping
I thought it was flat...
When I looked more closely
I noticed your cat...
SORRY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heard your wife left you
How upset you must be
But don't fret over the break-up
She moved in with me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looking back over the years that we've been together,
I can't help but wonder...
"What the Hell was I thinking?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Congratulations on your wedding day
To bad no one likes your husband
He's bad in bed
Has bad credit
No bank account
A Police record
3rd grade education
and unemployed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've always wanted to have someone to hold, someone to love
After having met you, I've changed my mind
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I must admit, you brought Religion into my life
I never believed in Hell until I met you
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As the days go by, I think of how lucky I am
that you're not here to ruin it for me
................................................................
Congratulations on your promotion
Before you go...
Would you like to take the knife out my back?
You'll probably need it again
***************************************************************************
Happy Birthday, Cousin Uncle Dad
(Available only in Tennessee, Kentucky & West Virginia)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy Birthday
You look great for your age...
Almost Lifelike
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When we were together, you always said you'd die for me
Now that we've broken up...
I think it's time you kept your promise.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have been friends for a very long time...
Let's say we stop?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm so miserable without you...
It's almost like you're here
=====================================================
Congratulations on your new bundle of joy...
Did you ever find out who the father was?
____________________________________________________
Your friends and I wanted to do something special for your birthday...
So we're having you put to sleep.

CANCER June 22nd - July 23rd... B-day 7/19

I was browsing the web like I often do and came across an interesting read about Zodiac Sign's, I must admit, about 90% of what it said about Cancer's fit me to a T...

Ruling Planet Is: The Moon, Which isn't a planet at all, but the satellite responsible for this water sign's many mood swings (and Lord knows I have em', lol)!


Love and Sex go together for Cancer's: They need to feel secure in love before they can relax in sex (uhh! sometimes). Most Cancers want to be parents (Hell to da' Nah! LOL, Not Me)!


Cancer's become sexually excited when they feel secure (Ok, I Agree with this one). They are turned on by home cooked meals, attention and lot's of affection (and more attention, lol). In so many ways, Cancer's are the dream partner (Can I Get An AMEN)!


FAVORITE POSITION: Any position that's comfortable (I know thats right) and involves the Cancer lying flat on their back with all their sensitive areas exposed (True, hehehe!).


BEST SEX TOY: A drink or blunt will relax the overly cautious crab! (I don't smoke so a drink will definately do, preferrably a Kamikazi, I love that drink).


CANCER MALE'S IN BED: He is a sensitive lover and will put his partner's needs before his own (You here that fella's???). He has a tenderness about him that can drive you wild! If the male Cancer decides he's in it for the long haul, he'll do whatever it takes to keep his lover happy in and out of the bedroom (See what yall been missing). Oh, and he's a nipple man (100% CORRECT)!!!


CANCER FEMALE'S IN BED: She oozes sexiness and is born to mate!!! Compliments and kissing will win her over, so as you're nibbling on her ear, whisper, "You're So Beautiful" to get her quivering (WAIT, That Works On Me To, LOL... Ok, Ok, No slick remarks, LOL).


THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON A CANCER: (Pay Close Attention Men) Concentrate on the breasts or pecs of a Cancer to really get them going (YESSSSS). Start by kissing and brushing up against them. Licking, sucking and biting the nipple will excite them (Amen, Sure Will).


The Cancer male LOVE's it when you squeeze his pecs and bite his bod and you'll have him bouncing off the walls in no time (Wanna see for yourself if it works, lol)!!!

Do Not Tolerate Nonsense

People, We need to stop patronizing venues (clubs & bars) that hire bouncers that have no respect for alternate lifestyles...
Stop complaining & "Start Making Complaints"
Stop attending these venues, believe party promoters and club/ bar owners alike will notice that there revenue is diminishing and that will force them to do something about this growing problem.
I am a firm believer that everyone is entitled to there preferences, likes & dislikes, but don't be disrespectful, as many of our night life bouncers are...
What should be required is that they all have mandatory sensitivity training, with refresher courses throughout the year and the promoters/ owners need to put into effect a "No Tolerance" rule (which would simply state: If you as security in anyway are disrespectful, out of line or overly aggressive you will be let go, no questions asked).
It is really ridiculous to me that these venues are quick to take our money, but not trying to make this a safe space for us... They search us aggressively (like gay is a disease and they don't wont to catch it), they talk to us like we don't matter and we beneath them and sometimes are physically over aggressive (and I've witnessed that a few times).
Stand up for yourselves or this will continue to keep happening, put a end to the hate & ignorance...
And to the bouncers/ security, You are well informed before hand that a gay party is taking place, If you don't want to be around it, Then call out, but don't come and pass your ignorance, hate and stupidity onto one of the most successful group of people in the World, You look down on us, But most of us are highly successful and can probably pay your salaries.
