What if black holes actually have negative mass? The concept itself is mathematically and scientifically plausable. This would not only support the popular theory of black holes condensing into a singularity, but give support for why it does this. If the concept of negative mass confuses anyone, it basically means the item's physical boundaries slip past itself on a quantum scale (I worded that weird, blargh!). Let's just say that there's more space inside of a black hole then there appears to be from the outside (think Doctor Who). It's technically not changing the mass number's absolute value, but there's more space inside, but relative to an onlooker, if you could see the "inside" of a black hole from the outside, it would be condensed. I'm not sure if this makes sense, but it's an idea that's been bugging me to put sense to, the concept of negative mass. It makes sense in my head, but there arent words to describe the ideas, so I'm trying to equate it to something we understand, at least a little, like a black hole, but its not quite what I mean by it. It isnt a good analogy. If only there was a way I could show you all my thoughts. Words are too insufficient.

Well, yeah, it's not like I learn everything I supposedly know from it.
Wikipedia is just the most basic source to locate and throw at people to give them a general idea of what something is if they've never heard of it before.
Most of that 'it's not reliable don't ever use it for anything' reputation is hyperbole, anyway; I've read many an independent source-evaluation article saying that it's actually quite reliable for most layman uses, except in the case of biographical entries.

Antigravity is another property it might possess. Being repelled by gravity instead of attracted by it.
There's no real evidence for negative mass anywhere, though, so, unless we experience a paradigm-shattering discovery at some point, antigravity shall remain a myth.
