of the african american male. I go tothe news stand and see GQ,Esquire, Men's Health. but when i look for something I can identify with,all i get is Black Man and KING. There is more to my life thanjust a half naked sister on the front cover. Ebony is positive,no doubt, but what about black fashion,wall street movers and shakers in Armani suits,fatherhood,fashion,spirituality,etc. Wher can I find that kind of periodical?

With a motto of "For Strong, Positive, Caring Brothers," Black Men promotes a positive lifestyle and is among the most popular publications of its kind. Topics featured in each issue include Business, Finance, Travel, Men's Grooming, Celebrity Women, Sports News, Sports Profiles, Community Affairs, General News, Arts and Entertainment, Regular columns inlcude "Men's Style", "The Ladies Room", "Food and Spirits", "Shop Talk", "Auto Zone", "Health News", "Events", "Get Fit". Readers enjoy intriguing articles on leaders and celebrities in the African-American community. Intriguing editorial and stories inform of news in the political and social arena affecting African-Americans. Black Men is for mature adults as many pages contain seductive photos of women, many of whom are known celebrities, actresses, and music artists. Readers might also enjoy XXL, King, Vibe, and Maxim. You are correct that there are not many positive magazines available for black men. Have you also tried the business magazine (I forgot the name of the editor -but it's positive). This might be something for you to consider as a spring board for your own possible career. It's these kinds of questions that have been the springboard for many new possibilities out there. I wish you luck and if nothing else it encourages black men to READ.

That is the biggest a$$ necklace I have ever seen. But yeah I think it's dying down a little, since a lot of the jewelry was fake just for show anyways. Plus a lot of rappers were getting their chains stolen or misplaced I know Nelly lost a couple hundred thousand worth of jewels at the airport a while ago. I guess it was just another trend, it will die down and come back again.

You no likey, go make one. I hate to put it like that, but it is hard to talk to just the professional African American men. Face it, who would put money into such a magazine? How many professional black males are there? Your target audience is too small for it to survive. I think the only possibility would be if Ebony or Jet made a magazine, once a quarter maybe, and piloted it like that.

So you only want to read race targeting magazines? There are plenty of periodicals that deal with fashion, wall street, fatherhood, etc. But it seems you are only interested if the word "black" comes first. Gee and I thought that the racial minorities in this country wanted a "color-blind" society. Seems to me the blacks want it "color-blind" when it benefits them, and not so color-blind the rest of the time. They spend all their energy being "black", and not enough being American.

Good question. Now armed with what you know, maybe you should consider launching a magazine line geared at black men (or men in general). I think it would be a wonderful idea. Good luck

well it sounds like a good idea why not make one? personally this kinda sounds like those questions i see that go like "why isn't there a WET for white folks?" think a little more effort into into making it a reality and a little less effort into ask why might help with this
