Sociology - September 2007

I am biracial and i have noticed over the years of working in service that alot african americans are very rude and picky. Like i only want 3 tomatoes on that. Or gimmie some more olives. I mean we only have a certain amount to give to people. Is it because of how people are raised or is it just a rude thing...And the people doing it are mainly african american. Another thing im also tired of african americans in our current generation using slavery as an excuse not to feel motivated.. It ended a long time ago.

My host mom always think I am naive about life especially when it come to relationship because I am still virgin.

She encourages me to have sex since I turned 20. I am now 22 years old and still a virgin. It is my choice to be a virgin. I have been lost friendship with many guy friends because I say "No to relationship or sex". Am I wrong?

Sometimes, it is very annoy to talk about life and relationship with her because we have different beliefs--she always end up told me that I am naive or inexperience.

Do you agree with her?

Thank you very much.

What are the disdadvantages of having a completely plain face? My face is attractive so I'm not worried- but my friend has a completely plain face. (poor thing) Some people have beautiful faces, some people have faces that aren't completely beautiful but still attractive, and some people have completely plain faces (not attractive at all)

The theory goes that because of slavery the black population were stopped from having marriages and often parents were split up from the same plantation. In order to combat this black males mated wherever they could with as many as they chose.

in a modern context, this means black people especially black women cheat with men they know have partners. it is the slave mind that makes them so low & have no respect.

As a sociologist, how would you propose to deal with the drug problem in the United States? If you were called on to revamp existing drug laws and policies, what, if any, changes would you make in them?

Hope this isn't a intrusive question. But I was thinking about this the other day for myself. And I really don't know. . . but then again I could just be lying to myself. I think I know what it is, just not owning up to it. . . But anyway. Everyone has them.

So what do you FEAR?

After seeing a question entitled "why do so many young people embrace diversity" here on Y!A, i feel its my turn to ask this question: Why is the majority of the older white generation so hostile (and sometimes racist)?

I don't want to sound like an uber-liberal bleeding heart type nor am I politically correct, but honestly I don't understand why so many middle aged/older white people are still so racist and so hostile to other people. I know it comes in all races, and I do understand where some sentiments come from on some things (ILLEGAL immigration, the news, etc...) but seriously why can't they just accept its a different world out there today and despite all the shortcomings and generation gaps a lot of us "kids these days" (of all races) really aren't that bad. Its the ones who do bad things that make us all look bad. Yet it seems we're usually always looked at as delinquents and morons who know nothing (and treated as such).

I don't want any of the generic cliche answers. The most thoughtful, in-depth but not dull, unique answer gets the 10 pts. Strike me with profoundness- note- you DO NOT have to be a profound person, but show who you are in a profound way.


Have at it..!!!

Ok one of my past college teachers from school last semester and I are friends but not close close. I have been out to eat w/her a couple of times and she invited me over to her house to see her new baby. I have given her 3 baby gifts also. We talk alot through email but ever since school started and she had her baby which is her first, she doesn't write me over email as much as she used to. I also know her husband and work with him. Well this is my question, her birthday is this month and I thought about getting her a little card and a gift certificate to her fav. restaurant. I dont know if I shouldor not though. I was gonna ask her if I could come by her office at school to visit or if she would mind. I think she's a really nice person and friend, although we aren't very close. What doyou think I should do? Thanks for your advice!
