I only have a handful of friends who are black (ok two) but one of them is a doozy. He sees everything through the lens of race and in my opinion sees racism when none is there. (If the bartender isn't quick enough to get us a drink or if we've been put at a noisy spot in a restaurant, etc). It totally consumes him. Most times it's funny as hell but sometimes it gets a little too annoying and embarrassing. But man when he pulls tht race card we get treated like fucking kings. Perhaps that has become your mo and these gals don't want to deal with all the bullshit and having to talk about race or get called a racist if they dont accommodate you in some way. They just want you to fuck and leave.

You're points an inaccurate though. As long as I've been here I've sat backs and watched all the bashing of races, woman, political affiliation, etc.. A few weeks ago a provider complained about people who were talking about her NBA and I laughed and basically said what do you expect. People respond to things that appear to be discriminatory. All of a sudden it was a bs thread about woman's rights and not overt discrimination.
Before that most people didn't even know my race. We'll actually 50 or so providers did..
With regards to the Roch trip it really had nothing to do with my 'MO' that clearly became established after speaking up on the matter once... lol. I looked at BP and more than half the adds said NBA so I didn't bother... I doubt I had anything to do with that.
So to summarize.. I reviewed the Roch ads and more than half were NBA.
In texting a handful of TOFTT providers I got radio silence after describing myself as an african American businessman, I got radio silence.
It appears these actions are condoned by many (or at least the loudest) in the upstate NY region.
You have 'gentlemen' lIke Dominic saying he will not see providers that see black men.
You.. ostensibly a white guy, suggest that it could just be my mo, lol.
Truthfully, the NBA seems to display ignorance at its finest IMHO. And witnessing the backwoods duck dynasty mentality that supports it is eye opening in this day and age.
Given the recent discussions I thought I'd highlight my recent Roch experience. The only thing I fucked and left was the BP ads. It's really is the provider's loss.
To top it off these controversial thread are fun and engaging. You rereally learn a lot of people that chime or shoot you a bunch of PMs.
