I welcome all feedback, whether positive or negative.

I do not understand why more people don't see this, such as the last anonymous person compared him to Andy Kaufman?<BR/><BR/>I think he has great talent as a comedian, actor, and entertainer. His satires are just, as you said, a reflection of his internal conflict in the situation he finds himself in. Many great and talented entertainers and comedians found a source of inspiration from their own life such as John Leguiziamo (the stand up show he did on HBO where he poked fun at his Latin upringing it was funny yet sad to watch at the same time like Chris's skits), and Bill Envall/Jeff Foxworthy poking fun at themselves and "Rednecks". <BR/><BR/>And just a side note, a man who can generate world-wide attention, controversy, and tons of hits on his sites, isn't just wise he's a freakin' genious!! He discovered the key to getting noticed, and went with it.

I just noticed people were finding their way here looking for the video, so I linked it. However, if you noticed it's an UPDATE. So I didn't say this defense was wise. In fact, I haven't made any commentary on it at all.<BR/><BR/>Your mom is irrelevant to Chris or anyone else's life except maybe yours and the people who she's impacted along the way. With all due respect, I don't think anyone really cares about her show of restraint. I do wish, however, Britney would try some form of that restraint. However, in her situation and with all the wrong people around her, I don't think that will happen anytime soon.<BR/><BR/>And if Chris is merely an attention whore, then you've fufilled his mission by watching and going out of your way to comment.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024832959937205245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-48995136658340396552007-09-14T18:26:00.000-04:002007-09-14T18:26:00.000-04:00Why exactly is Chris wise?

My mother went through a hell of a lot more than that and never shaved her head or flashed the world. So why is Chris wise for excusing britney?

We're all entitled to our opinion.<BR/><BR/>Honestly, if effeminate men are enough to turn people off then they have no concept of reality because there is a RANGE of people in all communities. There are feminine men and there are manly men who are straight, bi and gay. The same goes for women. There are girly girls who are lesbians and there are stout framed, no make-up wearing women who are straight. <BR/><BR/>I've been offended by some cross-dressers and trannies who have a very one dimensional view on women too. There are a lot of straight men who have a very one dimensional view on women too.<BR/><BR/>There are certain kinds of girls who also have terribly dimensional views of women.<BR/><BR/>None of them are right. <BR/><BR/>Chris is acting it out as an Internet celeb.

If I was a woman I would be insulted at his over the top act. He obviously thrives on attention and does his best to position himself as a victim through his outlandish behavior. <BR/><BR/>To me it's almost a form of mysogyny. Does he really think femininity is all about makeup and silliness and histrionics? It's definitely an insult to people who have experienced the injustice of racism and bigotry. He wants to be a victim, and it's just sad. <BR/><BR/>If a woman acted like him, I think she would find herself ostracized as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-75627910465618303772007-09-14T00:38:00.000-04:002007-09-14T00:38:00.000-04:00That's cool, but I think that he's focusing on it ...That's cool, but I think that he's focusing on it because it's that "thing" that sets him apart in the community in which he lives.<BR/><BR/>It's easy to say not to focus on that when you're in an environment that isn't pointing your sexuality out to you all the time.<BR/><BR/>I'm in no position to analyze him, but I think he's focusing on it because those around him focus on it.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024832959937205245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-30337284066034299132007-09-13T22:05:00.000-04:002007-09-13T22:05:00.000-04:00I find Chris interesting, funny but his sexuality ...I find Chris interesting, funny but his sexuality too much of a focus.

Already a long time fan, but just wanted to say I share your sentiments. Also suggest that you read "Escape from Real Bitch Island" if you haven't already. Fascinating read. <BR/><BR/>Anyway..<BR/><BR/>I think it is a shame that Chris has so many "haters". I think anyone from any walk of life - with an open mind - can take major lessons away from Chris' videos.<BR/><BR/>Not because he is smart. <BR/>Not because he is wise.<BR/>Not because he is gay.<BR/><BR/>Because he is a survivor. Because despite everyone being against him his whole life he still remained true to himself. Because despite living in the center of the most homophobic place in America he is still Chris Crocker and makes no apologizes.<BR/><BR/>He is an awesome person with a lot of laughter covering up a lot of pain and I wish him the best. I just wish the haters could stop hating. <BR/><BR/>So, yeah, um, lost my point. Whatever. Go Chris, go Chris supporters, and here's hoping he gets his fierce ass out of Bitch Island someday soon!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15757984815070406438noreply@blogger.com
