stories like these are so scary,
but they are so needed.
it’s a shame that someone like demarco majors,
who came out as a gay basket baller wolf,
would be coming out as the main character to something else.
he is a warning for all of us to be careful out in these forests.
demarco majors not only is a rape victim,
but he also has hiv because of it.
he shared his story with “hiv plus magazine”.
this is a snippet of how it happened…
“…Then came a night Majors doesn’t remember, other than some guy telling him he was a doctor. When he woke up Majors discovered he had been drugged, sexually assaulted, and abandoned. Like a lot of survivors, he’s replayed the night over a hundred times in his head, wondering if he could have done something different.
“Just because you’re curious and you go off … and want to hook up with somebody … you never ask for someone to put something extra into your drink. People are hitting on you, you feel good, and every answer is ‘yes.’ You say ‘Yes’ to everything when you’re high. I didn’t say ‘No.’ But when you know that something has happened because you wake up somewhere and you’re looking around and you have no idea where you are — that’s the most terrifying feeling ever. And following that came the shame.”
i told the foxhole before how my parents were serious about watching my drinks.
it even went as far as watching my drink being made.
the life is all about the parties and the sex,
but with anything,
there is always a dark side.
even telling someone “no” can still be a “yes” in their own head.
it seems like this happens a lot in the life.
being drugged,
raped,
and some having contracted a disease because of it.
scary.

i’m glad demarco is sharing his story.
it’s important for those to speak out so others can know they are not alone.

Yea, this is very serious and it is sad that things like this occur. All the reason for people to be careful pertaining to who they surround themselves with and the places they go.
I remember wanting to watch his show and thinking he was gorgeous and seemed cool.
This is one of those things my mom has always told me watch your drinks no matter what, don’t put yourself in a situation you can’t get out of or that could potentially harm you and always do for you. I hate that shit like this happens nobody deserves that type of treatment no matter what and I’m glad he’s talking about it and spreading the message.
Oh no! I remember him I used to have a huge crush on him everything was Sexy then he dissappeared to come back with this sad news but I hope he’s doing ok now…sigh
One movie that really touched on this subject was Logo’s ” The Skinny “. We forget how the one character was left alone by two guys that took advantage of his innocence and now, this paints picture of reality. I bet his incident was not long ago. What a twisted story and God bless him for being open
That was the movie with Jussie Smollett right? Sad story
Damn, that’s sad and def scary…I know when I first started out in the game, I wasn’t always checkin to see my drink made and jus trusted whatever they happened to be doin back there in the kitchen…there but for the grace of God go I….
I used to have the biggest crush on Demarco when he was on that reality show on Logo when they first came out. i feel bad for him. I really do. To my foxes, be careful and discerning with who you date and who you go out with. “All smile teeth ain’t laugh.” Know who you go out with and make sure that that person has ya back and is down for whatever cause not everybody is your friend. I feel bad because now, its an extra torture for him. he will replay this night over and over in his mind looking for an out that may not have been there at the time.
Totally agree Fas, I remember him being so sexy on shirts and skins ( back when logo had decent gay programming and not the mess the channel is now).
There are definitely snakes out there in this jungle looking for an opportunity to bite.
