Question: Does the term 'ebony' describe..
 

A black male? I don't think I've ever heard of an 'ebony man' - but I'm not sure if it's just because I don't work with that kind of stuff.

So I just got to thinking, that maybe it's just used to describe a black female, and the men are just a 'black' or 'chocolate lover' (I've definately seen that)

i'm all confuzzled. :upsidedow

Fuck my brain has gone. I need sleep. Good night GFY...

Theres Ebony wood which is dark or it can just refer to dark or black.
As far as lingo yeah I never heard of a Brotha being refered to as "Hey that Ebony Man..(fill in blank)"

:pimp Good Night

Agree with you man. "Ebony" can be used to represent black/dark but I never heard "ebony" bein used to describe a man yet.

I agree.. Haven't heard of ebony referring to men.. usually babes..

Ebony might be used in Black gay porn but I have never sent one click of it so I wouldn't know.

Ahh! one of my favorite song of Paul when he is on his solo career

It is noted for its heavy, black, fine-grained heartwood. It is a medium-sized evergreen tree, reaching 20hahaha8211;25 m tall. The leaves are entire, about 6hahaha8211;15 cm long and 3hahaha8211;5 cm broad. The fruit is a small berry 2 cm diameter, similar to a small persimmon.
