It all comes down to preference and who they are willing to see at the price points that they set.
If we take each other's suggestions to the extremes of the spectrum we are sure to make the suggestion itself seem ridiculous.
Publicly posting NBA policy or not doesn't really affect me, and honestly I can only empathize so much.
It's in trying to change what we cannot change that ppl go crazy.
It's crazy to attempt to change what you cannot change.
There's a bunch of stereotypes against blacks. That's what cannot be changed IMHO.

Well, it seems that there's a good discussion going on. But of course some is "MISSING" the point. Yes, NBA is BS because I (personally) haven't done anything negatively that justifies not seeing me.
But the POINT that I was trying to make was that I was seeking the answer to "When did respect and professionalism get linked to skin tone?" That's the question. My main point was that regardless of your skin tone, you deserve a simple yes or no response, especially since you haven't done anything wrong and you've been a gentleman through the whole exchange of conversation. I still say that it SUCKS when you ask a direct question and can't get a direct answer, just because of your skin tone--Oh come on, now--Get Real!
And Muffin, I don't know you and probably never will cross your path, but I can surely say that I'm glad that your sense of "no change can be accomplished" wasn't accepted by the masses back in the 60's because if it had, then I'm almost certain that we would be in a Civil war today. To me, and my values, LIFE is the ever changing of events and new experiences daily. Based on your analogy, if something is wrong, then just let it stay wrong because it can't change. Well, I refuse to accept that sense of hopelessness. You can only do bad for so long, until good will get enough followers and strength to over power bad. And this NBA crap is exactly that... Crap... I can save your life (because we're all the same inside), but I can't be treated equally... Go Figure... And as far as the Private vs Public arena, wrong is wrong regardless. And this thing about "Oh it's a preference", is also a bunch of BS. Discrimination is discrimination... Google it...
But I've moved on, and yes there are providers that looks at a person's character (which really is the most important trait) and I've been fortunate enough to find them, and they have never had a bad experience with me in or out of the hobby because I see all of the ladies as doing a personal favor for us (me) and I appreciate it because in my career I don't get much time to interact, and the community allows that relaxation.
Well, on to the next chapter in my life. This one (for me, at least) is closed!!! You'll see no more responses from me on this particular thread.
