*A feminine, well mannered, scholastic African American man.
*An unruly, self centered, smoking, wanna-be rocker male.
Complete misfits to society's stereotypical rules and tolerance levels. Maybe they have something in common. ^^
Really quick sketch, my sis and I were talking about misfits at her school and we got on the discussion of typical black male behavior at my past high school (which my sister goes to now.)
At that school the rocker/emo styled kids and proper/well dressed black males are out casted. People always went around saying the rocker kids cut themselves and well mannered, clean cut black men were gay. (It was true in most cases, but not always so.)
I was friends with the rocker kids.
*I know, total yaoi-esque looks on these guys. Sue me.

nice job =)
I hate stereotypes, I would never say " I'm emo"
or "I'm a rocker" even if I dress like one, I
like metal, rock & black, because I think they are just names that the society created
to "label" us.
But that's just the way I think
