      He is, as a flaming racist he is embarrassed to be attracted to colored women, and tries to hide it. 🤣🤣

      PS:
      I know he just doesn’t want colored people to have more children.
      But the other way is funny too IMO.

          “people of colour” and “coloured people” is essentially the same thing. There are better words than both

          You’re getting hammered pretty hard on the votes, but you are generally correct. I would not advise you try calling a Black person “coloured” in 2026. POC, or just flat out Black, is the more accepted term today. The point of POC is that it emphasizes the personhood over the colour aspect.

            For those who never watch it don’t context

            Spoiler

            Larry was helping a black family who also ironically had the last name “Black” and they were staying at his house until they found another place to live.

            During that time he couldn’t invite his date over because there was zero privacy with so many people.

            The doctor had similar issue as her family was also staying over at her place.

          The NAACP never changed their name, so I assumed the term just fell out of use, but wasn’t necessarily offensive.

          I’ve always thought either were silly - it implies that ‘white’ isn’t a color. Even if you say ‘white is the absence of color’ that itself is a color.

          ‘hey Bill, what did you paint your fence as’ ‘I painted it not a color’ ‘ah, quite basic, no?’

            The absence of colour is not a colour.

            That said, white people are generally actually various shades of pinky beige, black people are generally various shades of brown, but our language uses colour-based terminology to refer to ethnicity anyway.

            Complaining that white is a colour, so whites should be included as coloured people, is kind of silly in that context.

            Especially if you remember that the term “coloured people” originated as a way to stop people who had black and white heritage from getting any of the benefits of their whiteness.

              It’s not ‘I want to be included too’ but like, the entire thing is silly. We are all some shade of a color. To single out a group and call them ‘colored’ when we literally all are is just, wat.

              I mean it’s not like the people who were at the helm of racism were particularly intelligent, but like come on. It’s almost comical how smooth-brained they were (are). If I pulled out a pack of crayons and pointed to the white one, their worldview may implode.

                I definitely agree that the whole racism thing is absolutely stupid. A whole kingdom of cruelties based on nothing important.

      He’s allegedly had like 80 surgeries on his previously-normal penis, so I think that’s unlikely…

        You shouldn’t spread claims online that you can’t verify. You have no proof his penis was previously normal.

          LOL that’s what my wife said, with full sincerity, she said he might have been born deformed due to the shape of his torso. I don’t think so. People who have that kind of deformity tend to get only the amount of surgeries necessary, only a guy who was insecure about his perfectly normal penis would get like 80 surgeries to make it bigger. Just my two cents
