Sex sells. So it stands to reason that a magazine with Reggie Bush and his bared chest and washboard abs on its cover would be quite popular indeed. Right? Maybe -- unless the magazine is Essence, and the issue in question is its February "Black Men, Love & Relationships Issue." While the magazine's loyal readers have found little fault with the sexy photo of the running back for the New Orleans Saints, many are (angrily) questioning why editors chose to put Bush, who dates the decidedly not black Kim Kardashian, on the cover of the love and relationships issue of a magazine dedicated to black women.
Should the opponents of the magazine cover lighten up and enjoy the pictures, or does Bush have no place on the cover of Essence's love and relationships issue? Let us know below.

I absolutely agree with "Troof hurts" post.
I am a half Nigerian and Colombian woman and am never offended, nor hurt, when a Latino man dates or marries a black or white woman or when an African man dates or marries a white woman. Never.
If as a "woman" you are so offended by Reggie being on the cover of Essence because he dates Kim, who is not a black woman. That is beyond a race issue that you have... you women are using "race" as a excuse for your own very deep insecurities you have within yourself.
Reggie is obviously happy and in-love... God bless him!
Be happy for the man!
There is no harm in happiness and love!
Therefore he is not bothering or hurting anyone! So stop it!
We are living in a time, where there are bi-racial couples and children all over the world.
Let it go ladies! It's a very wrong way of thinking!
