Editor’s Note

The end of the 2013 is fast approaching and soon we will be

celebrating Christmas, Kwanzaa and the New Years. It is a good

time to stop and reflect on the great things that 2013 has brought

us all. Our president got through his 5th year in office. The gay

community has seen victories in the striking down of DOMA

And Prop 8. Hawaii just became the 15th state to legalize

marriage between gay men and women. That’s almost a 3rd of

the country. And last but not least, Mocca Magazine will soon be

celebrating its first anniversary. I’m beyond proud of this this

accomplishment. And I hope to be able to share more exciting

news with you very soon.

But lets not forget that this is a time of year when many feel that

life is not worth living. The suicide rates always climb around the

holidays. So take some time out of your hectic holiday schedule

of parties and social events to think about those people in your

life that might need some cheering up during the holidays.

Spread that holiday spirit around and make sure that you are there

for your friends and family in need. Also try and do something

nice for someone you don’t know. Spread that holiday cheer

wherever you go. Many people become very lonely during the

holidays. Do what you can to cheer them up and let them know

that it will get better. That is the true spirit of the season.

Happy Holidays to each and every one of you!

And please feel free to send me any comments or suggestions

Best Man Holiday

After nearly 15 years apart, Taye Diggs,

Nia Long, Morris Chestnut, Harold

Perrineau, Terrence Howard, Sanaa

Lathan, Monica Calhoun, Melissa De

Sousa and Regina Hall reprise their career-

launching roles in The Best Man Holiday,

the long-awaited next chapter to the film

that ushered in a new era of comedy. When

the college friends finally reunite over the

Christmas holidays, they will discover just

how easy it is for long-forgotten

rivalries and romances to be ignited.

Malcolm D. Lee returns to write and

direct this sequel to his directorial

debut.

The Best Man sequel returned to the

theater with a vengeance. Since the

announcement that a sequel to the

original Best Man movie (produced in

1999) there has been major buzz around

this movie. As icing on the cake, all of

The Best Man Holiday

Best Man Holiday the original actors from the first

movies have returned for the sequel.

Reprising each of their roles was Taye

Diggs (Harper), Nia Long (Jordan),

Morris Chestnut (Lance) Harold

Perrineau (Julian), Terrence Howard

(Quentin), Sanaa Lathan (Robyn),

Monica Calhoun (Mia), Melissa De

Sousa (Shelby) and Regina Hall

(Candace). The original best man

movie grossed 9 million dollars at the

box office its opening weekend and came in

as the number one movie in the country.

The movie went on to earn $34.1 million

dollars at the box office during its run.

(That’s $54 million adjusted for inflation.)

The new movie “Best Man Holiday, while

opening November 15, 2013 against the

second week run of the blockbuster movie

“Thor: The Dark World” managed to snag

the second place spot. The Best Man

Holiday was estimated to earn roughly $16

-20 million its opening weekend. Those

estimates quickly started being

adjusted as the Friday theater estimates

stated to roll in. The Best Man Holiday

had actually beaten Thor in ticket sales

on Friday by a little more than

$100.000. There were suggestions that

it might topple Thor for the weekend’s

number one spot. Even though Thor

ended up with the top spot, the Best

Man Holiday came in a strong second,

only a few million dollars from the top

spot.

Once Upon A Time by Rafael Solece

Once upon a time in the southern most region of the land, there were two

neighboring kingdoms. The ruling families of these kingdoms had two

young princes; separated by only a year in age. Through the years the

two princes played together and became very close friends; until one day

the ruling family of the eldest prince disappeared. The youngest prince

was very sad and his mother saw this. So she cast a spell to help him

forget; and so he did. The youngest Prince grew up healthy and happy

enough, but a piece of him was always missing...

Fairy tales usually start off

something like that; very abstract,

pretty, and foreboding; but that

my friends is not a fairy tale. That

is actually a page from a chapter

in my life and although I made it

sound very pretty, the truth is

actually stranger and wilder than

fiction. There was a childhood

friend, he did just up and

disappear, and I was probably

very sad. However, there was no

spell, just youthful innocence

helped me to forget. But that is

hardly a fairytale, it is just life;

but for a person like me, it makes

for a great story and an even

awesome lesson.

Everybody wants the Fairy Tale; love at first sight, the knight in shining

armor, true love’s kiss, happily ever after, and all that jazz. Be you man

or woman, gay or straight; I don't care what you say. Those epic love

stories are the things that we wish for and dream about. I know I did.

Unfortunately, everybody forgets about all the bad stuff that happens in

fairy tales. We are so happy when the Prince saves the Princess that we

tend not to remember the evil queens, the poisoned apples, the death and

destruction that ensues. There are a lot of obstacles and battles that come

between the once upon a time’s and the happily ever after’s.

Fairy tales ain't for the faint of heart. Hell they aren't even called fairy tales. The

fairy tales you know and love are actually called grim tales; because the happier the

ending the grimmer the tale. You have to be willing to go through the fire, slay the

dragon, and kill the evil queen if you want to gain access to the castle. That is what

all those fairy tales are trying to tell us. Life isn't always black and white or right

and wrong; and love isn't always neat and pretty. It’s usually followed up with a lot

of hurt and pain. But you need all that to make the story good, otherwise the story

wouldn't even be worth turning the page. A lot of us want the story simple. We

want to skip over the all the bad to get to the good. Especially when it comes to

loving someone. If loving someone was simple that would be boring and that ain't

the type of story I would want to read. Once Upon a Time he was in love and he

lived Happily ever after. Where is the fun in that?

Love should be messy and complicated. It should be filled with obstacles and there

should be lots of monsters and evil witches to fight. I don't want something for

nothing. I want to fight for it. I want to climb the highest mountain, swim the

deepest ocean, and fight the ogre. Especially if the love is worth it ; if it is meant to

be. And if you choose to let yourself love somebody then they should be worth

fighting the tough battles. If you honestly think about it, if there were only Once

Upon a Times then the Happily Ever Afters wouldn't be so wonderful. Why do girls

always go for the bad boys? Why do bad boys always go after the good girls?

Because bad boys ain't no good and the good girls have all the fun. Everybody likes

a good fight and the best fights are the ones that happen immediately after someone

tells you “NO”. There is something about that word that makes even the sheepish

of men brave and even the shyest of women out-going. The word NO makes you

want to fight; especially if someone tells you “no you can't love somebody”. It

makes you want to fight for it; it makes you want to fight hard. At least, it makes

me want to and I believe that is how we should all be.

Everybody wants that Once Upon a Time, but the Once Upon a Time comes with a

price. You have to be willing to fight to get to the Happily Ever After. The ending

of my story is still being written, but the highlights are; my childhood friend and I

eventually reconnect some twenty plus years later in the oddest of circumstances.

He has a boyfriend and I have a lifestyle, at the time that didn't seem like it

mattered that much. For months we were around each other not knowing our

connection, but our bond was steadily intensifying: and it was obvious to anyone

that knows me that something was happening between us. Eventually it was his

mother who would divulge our relationship and we discovered that our odd

attraction to each other predated our adult meeting. I don't know exactly what that

means for he or I, but I do know it’s a great once upon a time.

BET has announced that the hour-long

drama series follow up to the network’s

original hit summer movie Being Mary

Jane will make its debut on Tuesday,

January 7, 2014 from 10-11 pm ET/PT.

Over 4 million viewers tuned into the

July of this year. The movie served as a back-door pilot into the series, consisting

of eight one-hour episodes that will air on Tuesday nights at 10 p.m. on BET.

BET’s first one-hour scripted drama focuses on the life of successful cable news

anchor, Mary Jane Paul (played by

Gabrielle Union). She seems to have

it all; intelligence, drive, a beautiful

home, a fancy sports car, and a lavish

closet of designer shoes. Yet

something is missing from her

American Dream – a family of her

own.

to know Mary Jane more intimately

as they watch her life progress. As

viewers experience her journey, the

series will peel back the layers that

uncover who she really is and the

people that help define her – her

family, colleagues, friends and

lovers.

In the series premiere titled “Storm

Advisory,” Mary Jane is faced with

difficult decisions both in her private

life and her professional life. Two of her

past lovers, Andre (Omari Hardwick)

and David (Stephen Bishop) battle for

her attention, leaving her to wonder if

either choice is the right one.

Meanwhile, changes are afoot at Mary

Jane’s cable network after an anchor

is unceremoniously fired, leaving

Mary Jane, Kara (Lisa Vidal) and

Mark (Aaron Spears) all fearing the

loss of their jobs. Moral dilemmas

ignite as Mary Jane is left to wonder

– should she compromise her

credibility in order to save her

network?

Ask Aunt Pearl

Dear Aunt Pearl:

The Christmas holiday is approaching and I normally go home for the

holiday. My parents know that I’m gay and have never been

unaccepting of that fact. We actually don’t discuss it ever. I’ve been in

a relationship for the past 9 months and was thinking of bringing my

boyfriend home with me. My parents are used to the significant others

of my brothers and sisters. I told my sister about my plan and she has

advised me not to do it. She feels that even though my parents know

my sexual preference, they would not be comfortable with it in their

home over and extended holiday. I think that is time for them to start

getting used to it because I do want to be able to bring my boyfriend

or future husband to family gatherings. My boyfriend doesn’t have

the support of his family so he doesn’t have anywhere to go for the

holiday. I don’t want to leave him behind and I also really want to see

my family. It has been a full year since I’ve seen some of them. What

do you think I should do?

Dear Home for the Holidays:

You might open up a very bad situation Bringing your boyfriend

home for Christmas. Since your parents have never had discussions

with you about your lifestyle, It might not be safe to assume their

comfort level with it. By forcing them to deal with it in their home at

Christmas, You might get more than you bargained for. My

suggestion would be to begin by yourself either on the phone or in

person, Having conversations about their feelings toward this issue.

After you know that they are comfortable with you, you can begin to

find out their comfort level with seeing you in a relationship.

Springing all of that on them at once my end up disastrous. And it

could possibly affect your relationship. Take it slow and make sure

things are ok before you jump off the deep end and possibly drown.

Ask Aunt Pearl

Dear Aunt Pearl:

My issue is that my boyfriend can’t be satisfied sexually. We have

great sex but he seems to be insatiable. After a two hour session,

within five minutes he’s ready for round two, three and four. I

cannot keep up with him. I’m 15 years older than he is. I think

that he may begin to cheat on me because I can’t satisfy him the

way he wants it. I’ve never had this issue before. Most men can’t

handle me for the one session. I’m a thick 10 inches. He takes it

like a champ, with is great for me. But after one nut, I’m done for

the night. What can I do to bridge this gap between our sexual

appetites.? I really like this guy. We have a great time together. I

think he could be the one.

Dear Once is Enough:

I’m sure this guy is your dream come true, but you have to be

careful what you wish for. Sounds to me like a extreme case of

mismatched sex drives. You felt that what you’ve been providing is

more than enough until he came along and proved you wrong. My

suggestion is to have a talk with him and find out if there is

anything that can curb his desires. Maybe there is something

different you can do that can further satisfy him. You also might

want to talk to him about his past relationships. You might just be

the best or at least the closest he has found to his match. You

probably should try and step your game up and meet him halfway.

He might just be testing you to see what you have to give. But don’t

hurt yourself old-timer. If he is unsatisfied, he’ll let you know. He

doesn’t sound like he is the shy type.

If you have a question or situation that you would like Aunt Pearl

to help you with, send your letter to

[email protected] or you can submit the letter

from the comments page at www.moccamag.com.
