What’s all this about ? What’s the chant?
-
Probably be similar to the Lukaku song United fans used to sing ?
-
Yeah it's along those lines.
Probably bit extreme to call it racist but it's just an absolutely shite song anyway.
-
Can anybody post the words of the song, or a clip?
-
Ignore that. Just heard it. About the size of his dick.
-
Can’t say I’ve seen it but yeah, shame and I agree with how it’s handled. It’s embarrassing for the people who’ve sung it or shared it in like semi ignorant good faith, but you can’t make light of racial stereotypes and that’s that.
-

It's not as big as people think
What.....?

And yet Gazzas story about Les Ferdinands cock is fine.
-
So fucking cringe
-
Tainting the club. ..bravo fucking idiots ....shut like this sticks these days ...especially when we're not a media darling .
-
It's very very cringe, not racist at though
-
Is it really that different from the song Utd fans sang about Vidic. He comes from Serbia. He'll fucking murder you. Nemanja.
Just like the snowflakes are complaining about the Yerry Mina chant making all Columbians out to be involved in drug trafficking, does the Vidic chant not make out that all Serbs are murdering scumbags? Neither are of course true and are just lazy stereotypes.
I'm not saying that this particular song is particularly tasteful, but it is interesting that this particular chant has been picked on, when it's quite apparent that it's not a problem that is just specific to Everton.
-
Using the word 'snowflakes' is the more cringey thing this fucking year.
-
It is racist lads, sorry to break it to you.
Highlighting and focusing on black people's physical attributes is a thing that's dated back to slavery.
The people involved in this chant possibly weren't intending to be malicious, and it's more of an ignorance thing, which we're all guilty of or have been guilty of. But then people probably need to educate themselves a bit more.
Also, if you use the word 'snowflake' without any hint of irony, there's a strong likelihood that you're a bit of a cunt.

West Brom chant about Victor Anichebe that went un-noticed by Kick it Out...
Victors got a massive cock
victor, Victor
he tucks it in his football sock
victor, Victor
he shagged a girl and now shes dead, he swings his c**k around his head, Victor Anichibe's Albions number one"
-

I like the response that a snowflake is unique. But when I get people using it as an insult to me I just say ‘snowflakes together create an avalanche - and that can make a difference.’
-
we live in a world where nothing is allowed
a man can't call a woman a woman even when she has self-identified as a woman anymore
you can't say that someone might have a big schlong because it is statistically likely that he may have one that is bigger than a white person's anymore
you can't punch a horse while wearing a Newcastle shirt anymore
it's just gone mad hasn't it?

What if the player actually DOES have a noticeable hog, is that sommet we just have to ignore? :D
The best way to know someone is using the term ironically (at least over here) is to spell it "snowflaek" and/or put "smh" after it. Of course, that requires one's audience to know you are mocking the general stupidity of the alt-right crowd, so is best done sparingly.

I think before we decide if it’s racist or not we need to know if it’s factually accurate or not. I’m told that it appears generous “close up” I’m hoping the wife just means from the front of the gwladys.
If he is generously blessed then surely far from being a song about a black man stereotype, it’s just a song about a man.
On a side note I’m pretty sure kick it out have some sort of issue with Everton. From this, to contrasting reactions to Brewster/holgate situations and as far back as the pathetic way they failed to support lescott over emre despite overwhelming evidence.
-
Maybe we should just stop talking and singing about footballers’ cocks, racism or not.

Well how will they explain this old Everton song?
Big Bob Latch had a 10 foot lash so he showed it to the lady next door
She thought it was a snake so she hit it with a rake
And now it's only 5 foot 4
-
Also:
I'll tell you a story about a man named Bob he could score goals with the end of his knob
-

Oh Christ.
We're in danger here of it now becoming 'it was a racist stereotype to assume the cock thing was because he was black so now Kick It Out are the racists' and we all disappear up our own arseholes.

I'd imagine neither of those things would be an issue, because there's never been a history of reducing white men to predatory, sexual animals in the way there has been with black men.

Its not though, its in bad taste, but ask any person of colour to tell you the racist abuse they've experienced as a child and adult and being told you've got a big cock, or assuming you've got a big cock will not be up there.

You probably don’t know that many then.
My brother-in-law told me that growing up in New York and often getting called stupid n****r, and only being praised for his athleticism or perceived outsized genitalia was all part of the same thing.
Painted as an outsider and a meatheaded physical freak is no fun as a kid, and the scars go deep.

Not going to waste my time repeating what others have said, about why this is racist. I dont for one second think that the people singing the song were being malicious. But there is no doubt about it, that its racist.

Yeah, but some shit is pretty cut and dry, especially if you have grown up being close to men of colour or have some in your family

In general ye, alot of racism is pretty cut and dry, but there are others that divide opinion, even amongst people that particular ethnicity/community/clade or whatever else.
This particualr subject isn't cut and dry (i dont think), some people wouldn't think they are the subject of racist abuse if it was said about them, but maybe some do.
I jumped in earlier and said it's not, I was probably being a bit hasty and thinking about people close to me, on reflection I could see how some people could feel uncomfortable with it. Arguably there are links to "beast" "monster" thrown in too.
For example, I dont think saying a black guy has a big cock is racist. However, saying to a mixed race or black girl "I bet your dad has a big cock" I think is 100% racist.
Its a weird one and I think it's more complex than some peopls make out it is.
In general its not something I want to hear, its crude and in bad taste, but equally I wouldn't consider someone a racist if they said it.
Edit: just to add, its 100% being sang becuase he's black. People didn't sing these songs about Dunc, Crouch, Carroll or any other big non black players.
-
some very good points in this thread, and some posts that made me lol literally.
i guess its supposed to be a funny chant, kinda backwards chant bigging up the player.. but many of the pc brigade dont see that. being a person of 'color' (to me that alone is racist, its like saying white people are color-less) it all depends on the nature or the tone the chant/words are being sad. ie if a comedian (white/black/asian/whatever) said anything like that.. the audience would laugh.. so many comedians make 'racist' jokes. some of the best asian/indian comedians i have seen have made 'racist' jokes about their own people...
i see it as racist; and i can see it how people can see it as an amusing funny chant. its just racial stereo types, that the ignorant and older generation find funny.
-
i have not heard the chant, so am not commenting on if it is racist or not but on the general way in that people react to anything that can be used to vilify someone, while i understand some peoples point of view, i think its really pathetic that almost everything can be turned to be racist sexist homophobic etc
it might be a stereotype but is stereotyping that bad all the time? there are levels to it, saying a black man has a big dick might be childish but is it really that offensive? you could say anyone has a big dick regardless of there colour and i think they would take it as a compliment
Jeremy Corbyn is being vilified for calling Theresa May a stupid woman, she is a woman and by the looks of it incredibly stupid, but you can not call a woman a woman anymore? if she had called him a stupid man would it be an issue?
anyway i digress from my point
my point is everyone is equal and should be respected and valued for who and what they are does not matter if they are white, black, gay, straight, man or woman but it should not be a problem to mention the differences between people rather it should be celebrated rather than everyone take offence to every little thing
i have had a couple of beers, am not sure if ive made my argument clear, somewhere behind my incoherent jumble of words there is some semblance of a valid point (possibly)
-
It's all a smokescreen to divert attention away from Evertonians inability to come up with any decent songs.
-
It brings up the issues of context and intent as well.
I'd like to see those done and dusted with to be honest. Was race mentioned in the song? No. Was the intent to vilify, discredit or reduce the man in any way? No.
However, these things do. So we should just draw a line and say "Ok, we get it, you were doing it tongue in cheek and never meant to hurt anyone but here's the thing - it does. It does hurt people and your 'we were only joshing' type of racism can not only still hurt people - but it gives other people an excuse to go further. So we're drawing a line and saying none of it is acceptable."
On a scale of Wrong, numbered 1-10 - even your 1's and 2's are still Wrong and we won't get rid of the 9's and 10's until we draw the line on all of it. Then people can't bleat about context and intent.
-
I'll give you a personal anecdote of something that happened to me recently.
I work for a global company servicing many countries, so most of my coworkers are from all over the world. In my team of 9 I am the only white English person. There are about 100 people where I work.
One of the people I sit next to, let's call him 'G' (because I do!), comes from a small country in Africa called Benin that I had never heard of before I met him.
So one day G comes in moaning about the English weather pissing down and how he cut his hand on his umbrella. Well I thought it was hilarious. Laughing my head off I said "Of course he's cut his hand on his brolly - man's from Benin - he's never seen rain before!"
G got upset at that so I suggested we go chat somewhere private.
When we were alone I said "So how come you can say that in England it's always raining but I can't say that in Africa it never rains?"
He said to me "When you say something like that to me, I don't mind because we're friends. But when you say it in front of everyone I have to shut it down."
"Why?"
"Because if other people think it is ok to say stuff to me about being African, I guarantee one of them at some point will say the wrong thing and then we'll have a big problem."
So I learned something then. G's experience is so different to mine. Yes, there are some things certain people can 'get away with' (or however you want to put it) or put up with in different situations - but if we don't draw that line and say it is all totally unacceptable - people are going to get hurt.
So instead of "Oh it's ok to say that but it's not ok to say this?"
Lets cut out the confusion and just make a stand because that joke you like that you think is 'only mildly racial' - it's holding the door open for some real nasty shit.
-
There's usually some truth in a stereotype or you wouldn't connect the two. I know there are some scousers with curly hair and tashes even though it's used as a stereotype of scousers so there's some truth in it.. There are black guys with big cocks and even though it may be a stereotype it's none the less true in some cases. Is it racist? If you want it to be. I bet he gets worse comments off the lads in the changing rooms if it's true.

Feels like it's been a while since we played..

Yeah my dude but think about it like this,
Say there was some truth about black fellas having big knobs, how do you think that was used for hundreds of years? They were treated as more animal than man, and the myth of the big mazzy knob was used to beastialize them in the eyes of white people. Make them freaks. Animals that can’t be trusted around women. More cock than mind, more beast than man. Be scared of them and treat them with fear and contempt. Hundreds of years of that, wearing chains and straps for most of it.
I get annoyed when someone uses the scouser on tour on the rob and arguing with each other while whammoed about the togger. That was Harry fucking Enfield mate, and how much truth was in it compared to how much does that image still live on today? Harry Enfield Vs centuries of being treated like less than a fucking horse, and millions of people being raped, murdered, abused and killed.
Edit: does that make sense? I’ve had a crimbo jeffrey.
-
I agree with you Brap but the poor treatment of black people wasn't related to their cock size, more their colour. Christianity considered them heathen and less godly hence the efforts to indoctrinate them. Throughout the ages cock size has been linked to virility and many races created images of the phallus. Porn has added to the obsession of cock size equaling better sex. I doubt Mina is bothered about it either but as others have said it wasn't malicious just ignorant maybe. As for the scouser thing. If we didn't recognise Harry Enfield's characterisation we wouldn't get it. My uncle was that scouser in the 80's as where many others... Stereotypes work because we recognise them on some level.
-
It’s not intended as abuse and I doubt Mina was offended. A strange thing to make the headlines.

But it was part of it, it was connected to it. It’s not about intent or offence it’s that it’s a relic of something much deeper and more painful.
-
Urgh. It’s almost 2019 and there’s still big black cock jokes knocking about. That level of laziness is almost as annoying as seeing it continuously explained to people why it’s just not on to say things like this.

Slightly irrelevant to the debate though isn't it. They're not inferring any particular race or nationality has the biggest cock, they're just asking who has.

I haven't heard the song. Does it mention Mina's race or just his cock?
Also if Soccer AM is ten years old and the people singing the song are say 20-25 years old it may be that the subject matter is more acceptable to them as they have grown up with it on mainstream tv.

No it doesn't mention his race, but its being sang because of his race.
It probably is that, which is why i said I'd be hesitant to label someone a racist who sang it. If it's brought to light that some black men feel uncomfortable with it or feel racially stereotyped or even racially abused, then its about educating other people so it doesn't carry on.
I initially thought it was PC gone mad, but I've changed my mind on it

Specifically the "black people have massive dicks" stereotype, while sounding like a compliment, was actually invented and spread by missionaries, to emphasise their animal-like nature and thus provide a moral basis for slave trade.

Indeed. This comes a little later, but as an example of a frankly horrendous text written, this kind of thing illustrates some of the thinking that went along with those kinds of attitudes - http://losinger.altervista.org/documents/HowardMedicine.pdf
(some direct quotes)
When education will reduce the large size of the Negro’s penis, as well as bring about the sensitiveness of the terminal fibers which exist in the Caucasian, then will it also be able to prevent the African’s birthright to sexual madness and excess.
The truth is that the negro of today, untrammeled and free of control, is rapidly showing atavistic tendencies. He is returning to a state of savagery, and in his frequent attacks of sexual madness, his religious emotionalism, superstition, and indolence, is himself again - a savage. This animalism, this innate character of the African, will demonstrate itself more and more as his is allowed the liberty of his sway of ancestral sexual impulses...'
That was written by a fucking doctor in 1903. Next time someone says 'I don't know why anyone would complain about being told they've got a big dick', people should have some fucking awareness where this drivel and these awful associations come from.

First time I heard this in my life and i suspect these views are not present in the vast majority of people who had any thoughts about black guys being bigger. Seems like we should celebrate when a negative thing is lost in time, no? Unpopular opinion maybe but to me it seems like calling something like this racist because people over 100 years ago said something similar but with a different meaning only preserves those hateful views we are trying to eradicate.

I get what some people are saying about how it was used as a tool (no pun intended) to justify lynching black men a hundred or so years ago, but that's really not the case now.
It's a stereotype that's stuck for so long because it's a bit true, as many penis studies have shown. It's not abuse, it's just a stereotype, and you can stereotype without being racist.
It's a crap song and a bit distasteful so good riddance to it, but I'm betting Mina wasn't offended by it.
