BA x Reda For The World x Vice Media

[cant stop]

I am down with BA, but did anyone else think that was just a little too much information?

Blutto, cops, bears? Your sexuality is your thing, but we really didn't need the details, well I guess the Gonz did, but I didn't.

The things Gonz need to know, we all need to know.

How many times have straight skaters talked about the kinds of chicks they are into? Didn't J.Klein base his entire existence after it?

[SodaJerk]

Let's hope Sluggers moist ears never hear what the other shit people of all sexual preferences talk about, his head might explode.

Also we have two threads that are sticky in the whatever section based on tits and asses. Someone bump the cocks thread and sticky that for our gay pals

Fuck off fuck off fuck off

It's all relevant to the conversation. When did he start to realize he liked guys? When he saw Bluto. Does he like skaters? No he prefers bears and ironically the cops who kick skaters out of spots.

Fuck, let the gays have this. Or should we interview you because you feel left out of the conversation?

Like I get it. You're straight. You've never had to go looking for role models that you relate to on a personal level, and you've never been scared for your well being because of who you love. Try to have an open mind and put yourself in other people's shoes before you speak.

I really hope BA wins SOTY this year, the impact of his coming out will change and influence so many skateboarders lives.

A couple of flat land 360 flips would also hype me out more than any of the parts i've seen so far this year

not buying this for a second.

[doomstation55]

I caught mad feelings for a fine female officer once that was kicking us out. I've never been quite as cooperative and kind to a cop as I was that day.

I hope that wasn't too much information for those who feel uncomfortable about things.

[Mr. Kamikazi]

I just watched this last night; I thought it was exceptional. I think it is huge for Brian to feel comfortable with literally letting the world know, as there are risks associated with that; i.e. companies you ride for, etc. I liked how he was pretty open and didn't try to come out with this announcement, and then give a discrete explanation. On a side note, I though tit was pretty wild that at the age of 3, he claimed to have known something was different.

Lastly, I really liked 3D.

Aghh stop shoving your heterosexuality down my throat.

I bet anything Sluggers is 100% a homophobe. No one would say shit like this unless they're a true homophobe.

Sluggers, fuck off. BA can talk about whatever the fuck he likes! You can't handle it? Smash your head into the concrete for us please.

It's good to see Staba has moved on from his bundle of sticks decks to ones with a woman fucking a baby

I started skating in 87 (maybe even 86?) and I can say without a doubt that this is THE worst graphic I've ever seen. What in the fuck's fuck are you even trying to do Staba? It's not edgy, it's not offensive and its defs not even remotely funny...
Then again, this is skate mental we're talking about; they make LE look relevant

P.s. Keep them Klein burns coming <3

[Righteous Victim]

Never mind. I looked at it again. Disregard.

[stone cold steve austin]

i remember years ago i had this girl board and it had the girl logo at the bottom and then there was a slight bigger logo behind it but bigger and it kept going. i remember kostons was shades of pink and some one had shade of blue but BA's was a rainbow. i got the BA one.

i'm happy for him. good on him.

Swap the genders and it would be on Fox News yesterday.

[Silky Johnson]

Shane was smart to bail that shit show when he did.

[Watson]

I remember a real long time ago someone on Slap posted that they were in SF and saw BA coming out of a gay bar "with some Watson looking dude". I was pretty stoked on that but now that I know BA's man preferences more in depth I'm kind of insulted. I'm not a full on bear. I'm really hairy and can grow an amazing beard, but I'm not that big. I don't look like fucking Bluto for fuck's sake!

It's probably because of your elbow and knee nipples . I know those little gems tear me apart.

[shark tits]

Sometimes he's bluto & sometimes he's Brutus but nobody mentions it

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

I might be Bluto for Halloween after seeing that...

[baroque_0bama]

BA's been one of my favorites since I was a little kid watching Yeah Right and Modus. So stoked for him for doing this. I bet now with all of that weight off of his shoulders he's gonna shred even harder all of the time.

I think it takes a while for people to realize gay people are just people. I don't think BA really sexualized anything in that minidoc, it was more like "hey I'm gay, and here's what that's meant for me". A lot of people, especially young people, have to sexualize everything cause it's cool and sex is everything. We can see this in Reda's cringe filled comment in the credits about big dicks, or Biebel and his "more pussy for me" comment. There is more to being gay than just the sexual aspect, and I don't think a lot of people even consider that.

So no. I don't think BA divulged too much of anything. I think people see or hear gay and automatically think "I have no problen with two dudes sword fighting, brrrha, I'm soooo open minded and progressive", and don't even consider the fact that BA had to hid a whole part of his life. Good on you BA, I've always loved the guy's skating and glad he can be himself.
