This is the answer she got from a black man....

Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old black man. I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta, Georgia With a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to be among the ranks of successful black men. I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set the record straight of why black men date white women. Back in the day, one of the biggest reasons why black men dated white women was because they were considered easy. The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the church.They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and ,who they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the white girls. (continued below)

I never understood this idea that being a thug is cool!? What the hell? I see that this idea is very accepted among Blacks and Hispanics and White trash mainly. Where does this come from? F**cked up families, low self esteem? I have always thought that being a thug is pretty low. My family always stressed going to college, speaking correctly, to me, that what "being cool" is, being succesful and happy.. I dont see anything cool with selling drugs, gangs, doing crime..since people that choose those things almost always end up in jail or dead..we seem to live in a very f***cked up society(USA)

I feel if someone "important" ask a question, it automatically goes to the main with tons of stars. Certain quesions asked in certain groups would never make it to the main.

I would like my question to appear there..i wonder, who decides if its important or not?

Give me a star so mine appear there!! does the ones with the most stars appear?

so im 16 and im not sure if im gay or not. i think the being gay is wrong, since it says that it is in the bible (1 Corinthians 6:9) and im repulsed by gay acts (such as kissing XP! ). But the reason why i ask is i notice certain traits of other guys and think "i wish i looked like that" or "he's not bad looking", and i've never actually been atracted to either "side". but a lot of people think that i am gay, and i've began to talk in the way that is seems feminine, for example i say "like" a lot, etc. I really, (and i mean really) don't want to be gay.

although i'm not extremly religious i have done my biblical research. What i came up was: Everything is possible for God (Jeremiah 32:17), and everything is possible through God (Matthew 19:26, Mark 10:27). so it IS possible...

so my question is if i am gay, how can i become straight, and if im asexual (meaning "not being attracted to either gender", not "reproducing by oneself" for all you biology students) how can i become straight

I've seen teenagers with crazy coloured hair. I fancy a couple of purple or blue or pink streaks in my own hair just for fun. Or would people send for the men in white coats? Is it only teenagers who can get away with being unconventional and not be laughed at?

I have been noticing lately that people really like to take their anger out on ths website. I am an American and I made the mistake of confusing English and British. (sorry about that) I got an earful about the difference and I felt bad because I didn't mean to offend anyone, but is it really necessary to attack someone when you know they made and innocent mistake. O and why do the people who do this always bring up the country the other person is from and say "I'm tired of the AMERICANS confusing us..." I didnt make the mistake because I am an American, I made the mistake because I was uninformed, you know? And then they don't even answer your question, they just dwell on your mistake.Has anyone else noticed this? Does this bother anyone else? Once again sorry and now I know! :D

A child is born with a congenital heart defect, and will be in and out of the hospital until he/she is 20-30 years old and dies, and quite possibly will have a child/children with the same genetic defect, yet by all accounts, this child never should have made it out of the gate, perpetuating wholesale misery.

A momzilla brings her child to the doctor every 2 months for a bacterial infection, only for nature to get its game on, producing a super-strain of bacteria(which leaves the host) of which is totally resistant to any for of treatment.

AIDS Virus...how many get the disease(and get extended treatement prolonging death) only to pass it onto others when they should have died. Studies are now showing massive amounts of AIDS patients which refuse to even let their partners know they have the disease, have unprotected sex.

I think Natures non-PC example is best. The strongest and smartest survive, the rest die, and don't pass off disease to the living.
