LESBIANISM 'BOUT TO TAKE OVER
October 19, 2005 12:36 PM Subscribe
"Yo Butt Aint Made For That!" Unintentionally hilarious sermon given by sassy black preacher who blames lesbianism for his sons inability to get a date for the prom. Rev. Willie F. Wilson of Union Temple Baptist Church is well known for being a polarizing figure. However, it appears that rampant lesbianism has not impaired Hamani Wilson’s dating life.
Oh, and this is my very first metafilter post so feedback is appreciated. :-)

Apparently, if I understand this, black women make too much money compared to black men, and that's causing the former to become lesbians. Another powerful argument for maintaining the glass ceiling...

I loved how he went from talking about strap-on's to talking about blood vessels and diseases regarding rectal sex... uh, a non-sequitor of sorts. So, lesbians are strapping them on and passing diseases with those non-feeling thingies or has he just segued into a riff about the male homosexual, but forgot to mention them by name.
I'll be sure to keep that old strap-on disease free if that'll help his blood pressure.

Hamani did not respond to efforts to contact him, and his father is currently out of town. But Hamani’s older sister, Lili Wilson, suggests that perhaps Wilson wasn’t speaking of Hamani at all. Though Hamani is the minister’s only direct descendant in high school, “[the Rev. Wilson’s] got a lot of spiritual sons,” she says, making it possible for the “son” in question to be any number of young people. “There are a lot of children without father figures who look up to him.”Wilson, in the oration in question: "He said, 'Dad, I ain't got nobody to take to the prom.'"

I'm looking forward to seeing such G-strings being worn actually. An enterprising pornographer could mine this for a new hot series. I can see the headline in AVN:
"Black Lesbian Overlords #17" to be released in June 2007.
Or would that be "Overbitches"?

For an overwhelmingly-blue "state" (just funnin', we're barely a colony), we got some lord-almighty redstate church-state bedfellowing goin' on.

I think what you're hearing is the results of processing through a noise gate with the threshold set pretty high. The evidence I present for your consideration in support of this hypothesis are: the few bits of audience chatter you can hear seem to fade in and out, which would be due to the noise gate cutting in and out, and the way the "quiet" passages in between his rants are totally silent, again, as would be expected when there is a noise gate in circuit. It could also have been done by hand.

Apparently, if I understand this, black women make too much money compared to black men, and that's causing the former to become lesbians.
Recently I read somewhere (N.Y. Times ?) that colleges around the country are graduating 133 females to every 100 males and among blacks that ratio is 200 to 100. Good for female power, bad for relationships.
Oh and Rep. Tom Coburn is also the guy that wanted to stop funding on an anti-aids program in Central America because it was a "misuse of funds to organize and sponsor parties and dance contests to exploit victims of the sex trade." The parties and dance contests were how former prostitutes were teaching prostitutes about AIDS and condoms.
