Paco,

I agree with you on this however, many of the dolts we have in the industry use wording such as 'niggaz', 'biatch', etc because they simply dont have a clue about the niche.

I have tested several variations of ethnic niches using a wide reach of keywords and can say catagorically, that when using wordings like 'gay black men' those sites outsold sites using wording like 'punk ass niggaz'.

I really do beleive there is a line that is crossed far to often when it comes to promoting niches we know nothing about simply because it sounds cool when our sites use terminology that if we used in the streets, we'd be shot for using.

If you want to go 'ghetto' with the text being used on a gay black site, then go the 'thug' route, not the racist route.

Regards,

Lee
