BBB14: Cássio generates controversy after saying that he “went all the way through” an “African descendant” woman

Courtesy of BOL
The gaúcho Cássio Lannes, 22, became a
topic on social networks and was one of the most reverberated
participants on this week’s debut of the 14th edition of BBB14.
In brief exchange with Tatá Werneck on
the house of the reality show, Cássio told a story that sparked
controversy. In one of the moments of relaxation with the actress and
his brother Allison, the advertising student said that he was responding
to criminal proceedings after “went all way through” an “afrodescendente (African descendant)” woman during a sexual act:
Cássio – It happened to me. I’m responding to charges. Seriously, don’t
laugh, it’s true. I’ve been responding to charges up to now, for
murder, do you understand? Look at me and don’t laugh. You think it’s
funny but I think it’s sad. I almost didn’t come in the house because of
the charges. I say nega, nego (1) , because that’s what I went through…that I…sorry. Seriously. She was afrodescendente. And I thought like this, an afrodescendentes (1)
is accustomed to having relations with..? With afrodescendentes. And I
thought: hold up, she can handle everything. And I went all the way
through her and today I’m accused of murder, you understand?”
Note from BW of Brazil: As
we can see, the comment made by the reality show participant made a
clear play on the stereotype of the hot, sexually insatiable black/”mulata” woman. In fact, his comments touch upon images of both black women and black men
because, in his “joke”, he assumed that the black woman could “handle”
him because, as she’s probably accustomed to being with black men
sexually, and as black men are thought to be “packing”, surely she could
handle what he had to offer. To be sure, his “joke” wasn’t anything
that any man hasn’t heard before when just “kicking it” with his boys.
Not to excuse the joke, but again, when the only image one has of women
of African descent in Brazil’s mass media is the Globeleza, the Carnaval dancer or the maid or cook,
these types of comments, as crude as they may be, are “acceptable” for
many people. After all, an old saying in Brazil is “white woman for
marriage, mulata for fornication and black woman for work.” The
difference here is that he said it on TV and thus, people have to at
least pretend that it is “unacceptable.” Also considering this wasn’t
his first “joke” about “afrodescendentes”, you can surely believe it
won’t be his last.
