I'd call it "urban" speech, not "black" language - th@'s the same as saying "black" food, clothes, cars, music etc.
Not hip, @ all. May as well scream out negro! (MHO)
Is it wise to promote:
- a sado site, without the lingo? (Is it flog, or beat the living shit out of ?)
- a skater site without knowing or using street lang? (shred, or weee ?)
- a twink site without a "boi"?
- a lesbian site without "mashers"?
Nope! Nope! Nope ... !
Language is a huge part of the game (fantasy), and not playing it (the game) properly is simply not fun (BORING) and your viewers will know.
May as well rudely shake awake a person whom is having a wet dream.
A person does not want to look at a roughneck lookin' mutha th@ speaks proper english (the model may as well have Poindexter's glasses on). They are there because they like the package and want it all, or part of.
nigaz = Paco is chillin' and buttin' waffs wif 'em gangstaz, while pounding back the 40's.
ebony = Paco is borrowing some books from the gentleman.
NOT quite the same effect.
I am sure th@ there are plenty of language-nazis that will argue differently, but I strongly believe it to be an extremely bad move (to not use proper terminology, &/or destroy the theme).
Unless you're selling English lessons!
After all, what are they there for?
I for one hate going to a telemark site that has no idea what a freeheel 'nripper is. I leave, quickly, as they have nothing to offer me, aside from insults.
