I think a lot of things deemed queer slang overlap with black slang because of intersectionality and how much of gay slang comes from black queer people.
I disagree with that sentiment, a lot of it is just black slang, because it specifically comes from black women like "period". These words have no real origin in the queer community but so much of queer culture is based on mimicking black women. The things that truly "overlap", that come from black queer people, are never considered black slang, just queer. Things like "cunty" or "yas" that tend to come from the ballroom scene never fall under the umbrella of black slang or aave.
Language is fluid. It moves, it travels. Claiming words by ethnicity is for intellectually limited people. I'm black and speak English and Dutch. Because I was born in Western europe. Am I speaking the 'white man's language'? It's MY choice of words coming out of MY mouth. The fact that I'm familiar with American slang is due to being exposed to it and social osmosis does the rest. That's how languages evolve, people. You think English always sounded 'english'? Grow up, people. My ancestors didn't survive the horrors of the sugarcane plantations in South America to have us deal with this nonsense. It's english: the whitest language in the world. It's Anglo Saxon! Germanic!😂😂 I say: Say whatever you want to say and how you say it. Life is too short to be policing slang.

i don’t know if this is true i’ve heard and read and i think you can look it up that all this slang originated from ballroom and black trans women actually and it seeped into the rest of black culture.
It may well have become black slang, I don’t doubt it. But honestly, saying period after making a declaratory statement is a very common thing to do. At the very least, I remember white ppl doing this in the 80s, and I’m sure it goes back much further than that.
"A 1908 short story by William Sydney Porter, who used the pen name O.

This usage may date back to at least the 1940s and is said to have emerged from African American Vernacular English as a reference to the game of pool.
They love to take black culture slang and rebrand it as “Gen z slang” or “queer slang” and it gets so popular and used by the 🤚🏻 that they think they own the slangs and it’s so tiringggg
As I get older, I am learning to get less angry at people copying us and to actually have pride in the fact that our cultural influence is so damn impactful. Created in spite of the circumstances. I love being black. ✊🏾
Nah… u have to let the young people push back at the nonsense.. Because if we don’t. They will STEAL everything we have . We have to push back. I’d u don’t have the energy to do it anymore that fine. But someone has too
I never get mad at the copying, but I refuse to entertain anything they are in when they make proceeds off of it. Because if it was a black person they wouldnt.
You're right about the stealing of slang. I've been telling my kids for their whole lives that they're out of pocket when they're wrong. People trying to remove us from the slang we created while simultaneously using that slang is one of the craziest things I've seen in my lifetime.
To be fair a lot of the pioneers of queer culture were black, so there is an overlap in those cultures, which is probably why it spread to other communities. But either way it’s not internet slang, obviously.
You just said black gay men… they were obviously raised by black women and around black women. Even the dance voguing was an exaggeration of black women church and hair fashion shows. I bet you didn’t know that either. So to be fairer, all non black queer people should just stop saying where something originated because black Americans will always comment because we are living history books and not propaganda whores. We know that the “founding fathers” were not hero’s and good people, but there is a whole population of people that believe these figures were amazing
No true black queer men. Imitate black women. What other women do u think they are acting like. They black mothers etc.. no excuse because they know their own women don’t talk like that. Black wen do. And yall know that. That. There are accents that Mexicans have Chinese have and no one copies them.. yall only copy Black poeple. No one is copying Mexican or philipino slang
The thing is so much of that comes from black women. I think gay men looked up to black women's strength and took it on. They took on our mannerisms and lingo and it has continued on.
And there is nothing wrong with that, that is what’s happens when hang around people you pick on how they talk and act and vice versa, also I would never be offended if someone was tryin to “act black” because 1. That is none of my concern and 2. At the end of the day I know I’m black and insecure in my Blackness

@@princess_niya2407it is something wrong with that cause now everybody thinks gay black men created this slang including gay black men. Men are constantly erasing women’s credibility.
@@kandirain_1172 gay men also stereotypically have more/mostly female friends and also straight men are often less tolerant of queerness than women. So they probably got their lingo from being closer to their mothers and/or black women in general and then it spread to other races. thats my theory at least.
There's so much slang today that comes from ballroom, which is not only black but also queer. Black women also get forgotten in that conversation until its time for caricatures, that is. Bretman always seemed genuine to me tho for sone reason.
One of the main reasons why it’s hard for me to listen to flamboyant men.. it’s always a bad “ghetto black woman” persona that they try to imitate and it gets under my skin😂
Dee don't get me started! A lot of THINGS originated from Black Culture and has been stolen...even a lot of gay slang has been taken from Black Culture itself 😂

It’s really strange how everyone copies each other, but we want to separate ourselves, like it’s any different. The black person you heard use slang, copied from some other person bc they thought it was cool. Almost like we’re all humans and do similar things.
Also, the English language, which AAVE (African American Vernacular ENGLISH) was derived from, originates from England. So I understand why the frustration is there, but if we really went that route then everyone would have to gatekeep their own language, which defeats the purpose of languages in general.

To clear up the whole "point black period" thing; Black queer spaces revitalized the word in the 60s and 70s. Back then, a lot of black gay hairdressers would work at black hair salons. They would use the slang that black women would then begin to use. So while it is a black phrase, it's also most definitely a gay phrase as well. A lot of the slang used today was invented by gay and trans people of color. You should not attribute that slang to the black community, nor to the gay community, but to both.
Black women are the blueprint for gay men. Gay men got EVERYTHING they do and know from black women. The way we walk, talk, our mannerisms, the way we dress. Everything the Gay man do came from women.
*Before Watching* THANK you for this reaction, because 3 minutes in, I was uncomfortable and embarrazzed. "Yaaaaas is kind of over." Is it?? 🤔🤔 "Ariana Grande did it, but I think YUH is in....", well she took it from SOMEWHERE!! She didn't come up with it on her own. Those entire 3 minutes I watched were giving appropriation and erasure and I just could NOT, I'm not even African American and I felt disgusted. I'll watch the reaction soon, but Dee will probably say more than enough. 😂😂 *After Watching* All I can say is uploading this during Black History Month is MESSY, but also serendipitous, because this is the Gregorian year of 2024 and we are in the digital age. 😌😌
Yaas isn't black slang, it's queer. That being said, it does come from the black queer community, specifically the ballroom scene, but those always just fall under queer lingo, not black. The Ariana thing I truly think just came from Ariana however. She kept saying "yeah" that way in her songs and people made it into kind of a jokey thing, specifically queer people. Period, outta pocket, and many other things definitely does come from the wider black community however.
To be pressed about a word is silly to me. It’s just a word at the end of the day lol and yes many slang words come from the black community as you said but also it comes from the black gay community. But like i said it’s just a word and shouldn’t matter where it came from and if to some it is deemed as a gay slang word etc.. it’s a word. Lol also many slang words also come from different countries and communities.. like “clocked” etc.. but to be bothered by a word said to be from a certain community is silly. Just my opinion.
@@legallymisunderstood8369Where are people getting the idea that peridot originated from black women. If you Google where the word peridot came from the first thing that comes up is black gay men.
I can understand why if you grew up in the black community, you would assume that the various expressions you hear are just black expressions. Bc how else would you know that they’re universal expressions. It’s the same thing as young ppl thinking that things originated in their time, bc they don’t realize that they’ve been around long before they were born.
They generally are but are used primarily in certain communities(this case black) & ways unique to them. Then get misappropiated by members not in those communities as having different(not other) origins/deliberately not acknowledging it
I remember when he had a picture on ig of him running hurdles for his Highschool track team and he photoshopped a bucket of kfc chicken and koolaid with the hashtag NWORD LIFE he should talk about that and cut the accent
I never saw that before but I wouldn’t agree with the accent. He may use slang, but the accent is very clearly Filipino. Many Filipinos have that accent. The only ones that don’t have that accent are likely raised in America or don’t speak tagalog (Philippines language).
When he was in high school? Over 10 years ago? If he hasn't taken accountability, sure, but holding things over people's head for the rest of their life is extremely hypocritical. I'm not defending him, but none of us are saints. Your username is literally white tears, classy. We can't expect people to grow and learn, or even be open to growth, if we keep shunning them and never letting them forget it. Imma get called out for this, lol, but idgaf honestly. We need stop doing this whole "Well remember when so and so did/said this when they were 12!?!" and even after they apologized or took accountability. High schoolers are dumb as hell, and say ignorant things all the time, they're children, teach them instead of ostracizing them. I'm definitely not the same person I was in high school, I was a damn mess. I'm nearly 25 now and do you think I really resonate with teenage me? No.
Learn the origins of gay slang in America even music and dance and you’ll learn a new part of black history straight black people never learn Black trans and gay people created 90% of what we call gay culture which is why there is an overlap A few other reasons as well

@@Jesus1st123 Smh, "eating fried chicken" as the rebuttal? It's actually high-key problematic to think enjoying fried chicken is inherently cultural. A more appropriate analogy would be opening a soul food restaurant. And in that case, if one doesn't have any understanding or respect for the origins and cultural significance of soul food, then yes that would be cultural appropriation.
@@princess_niya2407You sound crazy. When people speak English they know and recognize where it comes from 😂. Same as wearing a kimono or eating pizza. You look unintelligent when you purposefully try to change the history of something.
I'm latina & my mom used to say period! when i was a kid, that's why i could never use it (&l low key cringe when i hear it!)
once i remember i said: actually not period just comma! (thinking i could be cute)
& she just gave me THAT LOOK & i was like: ok period, bye!
To clear up the whole "point black period" thing;
Black queer spaces revitalized the word in the 60s and 70s. Back then, a lot of black gay hairdressers would work at black hair salons. They would use the slang that black women would then begin to use. So while it is a black phrase, it's also most definitely a gay phrase as well.
A lot of the slang used today was invented by gay and trans people of color. You should not attribute that slang to the black community, nor to the gay community, but to both.
Black women are the blueprint for gay men. Gay men got EVERYTHING they do and know from black women. The way we walk, talk, our mannerisms, the way we dress. Everything the Gay man do came from women.

*Before Watching*
THANK you for this reaction, because 3 minutes in, I was uncomfortable and embarrazzed.
"Yaaaaas is kind of over." Is it?? 🤔🤔 "Ariana Grande did it, but I think YUH is in....", well she took it from SOMEWHERE!! She didn't come up with it on her own.
Those entire 3 minutes I watched were giving appropriation and erasure and I just could NOT, I'm not even African American and I felt disgusted.
I'll watch the reaction soon, but Dee will probably say more than enough. 😂😂
*After Watching*
All I can say is uploading this during Black History Month is MESSY, but also serendipitous, because this is the Gregorian year of 2024 and we are in the digital age. 😌😌
yasss is not black slang though that’s for sure queer. but alright
Yaas isn't black slang, it's queer. That being said, it does come from the black queer community, specifically the ballroom scene, but those always just fall under queer lingo, not black. The Ariana thing I truly think just came from Ariana however. She kept saying "yeah" that way in her songs and people made it into kind of a jokey thing, specifically queer people. Period, outta pocket, and many other things definitely does come from the wider black community however.
@@RyanHaileblack gays got everything from black women dawg. Everything
@@RyanHaileQueer slang is black slang. The LGBTQ+ is heavily influenced by black culture. Do your research.
Yasss is black slang and was created by black people
To be pressed about a word is silly to me. It’s just a word at the end of the day lol and yes many slang words come from the black community as you said but also it comes from the black gay community. But like i said it’s just a word and shouldn’t matter where it came from and if to some it is deemed as a gay slang word etc.. it’s a word. Lol also many slang words also come from different countries and communities.. like “clocked” etc.. but to be bothered by a word said to be from a certain community is silly. Just my opinion.
Exactly. People are so pressed over simple things.
not negative 9 inches 😂😂😂
Disgusting
Why is everyone talking about the origins of gay slang? It wasnt a topic in the video.
“Peridot.” originate from the black gay community
They got it from black women. Gay mens entire personality is from black women.
It originated from the black women, where the gay black men got it from. Their mothers, sisters, cousins, girl friends.
@@legallymisunderstood8369Where are people getting the idea that peridot originated from black women. If you Google where the word peridot came from the first thing that comes up is black gay men.
I can understand why if you grew up in the black community, you
would assume that the various expressions you hear are just black expressions. Bc how else would you know that they’re universal expressions. It’s the same thing as young ppl thinking that things originated in their time, bc they don’t realize that they’ve been around long before they were born.
Agree💯
They generally are but are used primarily in certain communities(this case black) & ways unique to them. Then get misappropiated by members not in those communities as having different(not other) origins/deliberately not acknowledging it
Bret only 25 lmaooo not u say he in his 30’s 😂😂
11:09 TYGA🤣🤣
Dee, react to Wendy Williams talking to Blac Chyna
Was this video removed
Dee you watch Amberlynn Reid reaction channels 😍 my peoples 🙏🏾 all facts black women are the source and always will be, period
I remember when he had a picture on ig of him running hurdles for his Highschool track team and he photoshopped a bucket of kfc chicken and koolaid with the hashtag NWORD LIFE he should talk about that and cut the accent
I never saw that before but I wouldn’t agree with the accent. He may use slang, but the accent is very clearly Filipino. Many Filipinos have that accent. The only ones that don’t have that accent are likely raised in America or don’t speak tagalog (Philippines language).
Inchresting......
When he was in high school? Over 10 years ago? If he hasn't taken accountability, sure, but holding things over people's head for the rest of their life is extremely hypocritical. I'm not defending him, but none of us are saints. Your username is literally white tears, classy. We can't expect people to grow and learn, or even be open to growth, if we keep shunning them and never letting them forget it. Imma get called out for this, lol, but idgaf honestly. We need stop doing this whole "Well remember when so and so did/said this when they were 12!?!" and even after they apologized or took accountability. High schoolers are dumb as hell, and say ignorant things all the time, they're children, teach them instead of ostracizing them. I'm definitely not the same person I was in high school, I was a damn mess. I'm nearly 25 now and do you think I really resonate with teenage me? No.
Idk why y’all lie about stuff like this…stop
@@twinkincarnateyou’re making excuses , if that happened that’s fucking racist stop protecting these celebrities you don’t know
What's your fav Disneyland food girl--what do you eat there?
Learn the origins of gay slang in America even music and dance and you’ll learn a new part of black history straight black people never learn
Black trans and gay people created 90% of what we call gay culture which is why there is an overlap
A few other reasons as well
Girl, white grandmas in New England said "Period!" all the time.
And they shouldn’t
And they got that from Black Americans through media. If you still think I’m wrong, please site a source.
@@FoxxyFatima Cite* -- Also the language we speak wouldn't even exist if not for English people. New England - England - English. Please. I get the frustration, but AAVE wouldn't even be a thing if not for English people. It's too contradictory I'm sorry
@@twinkincarnateyou keep saying this like black people wanted to speak English instead of it being forced on to our ancestors
@@madisonwhyte976 I am well aware of the history of black Americans, because I am one. This doesn’t negate anything I said
These people in the comments brain dead😂
Why does everything need to be about black people? This video literally did not mention anything about black people. I find it crazy that in a video where no black people was mentioned, that black people was inserted in there. Yes we get it. Everyone copies and youre abused on the daily with people stealing from you and making your lives worst.
Hater!!! 😂
