Trey Knowles: Why Do You See So Many Feminine Black Men? | Standup Comedy
In his stand-up comedy routine "Why Do You See So Many Feminine Black Men," Trey Knowles explores the cultural and social dynamics that, in his view, contribute to the rise of effeminate behavior among Black men. Blending humor with social commentary, Knowles suggests that many Black boys grow up mimicking their mothers due to the absence of father figures—a result, he argues, of systemic economic hardship and historical oppression. He jokingly frames this dynamic as "sorcery" brought on by the white man, using satire to highlight deeper issues within Black communities. Through comedy, Knowles critiques both the societal structures and cultural shifts impacting Black masculinity.
