Im 18 and have obviously been black my whole life. But from a very young age I always felt weird that I was black. I remeber looking at myself and thinking "wow, so i'm black?" I have always gone to primarily white schools and most of my friends are white. I get called 'oreo' and 'white girl'. Its so strange but when people tell me "your black" or describe me as 'a black girl' it feels so strange and foreign. And truthfully uncomfortable. Even when black people describe me as that it feels so wrong. I can't explain it, im not ashamed of my race, I like the way i look, listen to 'black' music, and like 'black guys'. but I dont feel like I'm supposed to be black..was I white in a past life or something...uhhh I hate feeling so out of place and shunned by my race HELP MEEE

After exhaustive research which I did about 3 minutes ago I've come to an astounding conclusion that most gay people in the world live by a rather large body of water. A sea, an ocean, a raging river, an idle lake or even a lazy pond. Discuss.

My second question is: I'm attracted to the Coast Guard, what shall I do?

Every morning when I get up, there's leaf blowers going, and there isn't any leaves on the ground! It's always hispanic men using them, too.
Why??

I sometimes have s*xual dreams with guys. (also girls) but i only find girls attractive in real life. Am i an imaginary bisexual or what?

I could only be with a girl in real life, so why would i dream about having s*x with a man?

Does it really deserve to be in the same class as ampetamines? I also note that GHB and Ketamine are class-c, so this would also mean that cannabis is regarded as more harmful than these two mind-benders.

I've noticed this a lot this year. Racist N*zi and KKK members saying stupid crap on the Internet but don't have enough courage to say it face to face to a real colored person. Is this a growing trend?

why is it that we find everythying offensive?
WHY CANT WE JUST FORGET AND IGNORE who cares what people say and think about muslims.let them.who the hell cares.is their opinion [especially nonmuslims] gonna effect how u live ur life.why let it.
im muslim too and im getting sick to the back teeth of people mostly on telly getting annoyed about everything...
im like most of the muslims [who u dnt see on cnn or fox news] id like everything to be normal and calm and bring back christmas lightssss no im not offended if u celebrate christmas .
sometimes i think governments make it a point to deliberatly do something and say that itl cause offence to muslims so thats why we are not doin this....when really they are just tryin to get the public even more annoyed with us.

Hair looks good, awesome, and stylish to make them feel less insecure about their hair? I want them to feel good about their hair type. How do I do it? I've heard that black females are insecure about their type of hair so they require a lot of attention. Why? Are they sensitive about their hair type? Do they need someone to always tell them how good it looks? Will they get annoyed at someone always telling them their hair looks good, awesome, and stylish? I want to understand them more. Please help!

No, I'm not a racist. I know black females. I work with black females.

I choose not to walk down the street with a gay guy or lesbian because of two reasons. One I don't want anyone thinking I'm that way or I believe in that lifestyle and Two no guy is going to look at me if I'm walking down the street with a gay guy. Should I be friends with a gay guy or female even if I don't believe in their lifestlye and Am I wrong for not befriending a gay guy or female?

I'm 5'3" and I just took a bit of ribbing because I asked my supervisor if the large white board in my office could be lowered 4 inches so I wouldn't have to stand on a step later to use the top of the board.

He lowered it gladly and I'm short and proud. I wonder if anyone else here is petit and proud of it?

A couple of questions for you.

Q1. Are you opposed to a gay couple & a lesbian couple conceiving a child and sharing custody between them? 2 dads and 2 mum's cant be a bad thing can it?

Q2. Since you are so opposed to gay adoption are you willing to open your hearts and homes to one of the many needy children who would dearly love somebody to love them?

Thanks for your time

I'm in my thirties, and until not too long ago, it seemed I was a teenager.

Now, the people of my generation are married and have children. (I'm not and I don't have children, though).

The people we admired in our youth for their talent or looks (or both), are now retired or are too old.
We no longer hear anything about them, and when we do we are disappointed.
(There are some noble exceptions, such as, Paul McCartney, John Travolta and Madonna, who seem to resist to time, though.)

We see a new generation flourishing (or even new generations flourishing), about which we can remember very well things from the time they were born.

What do you miss when you think of those old days?

(And while at this... When we were young, didn't it feel like we were going to remain as such forever?...)

I am currently looking for new ideas for activities for independent senior citizens. I want to jazz up my calendar with new things for them to do instead of the same ole same ole. They love to play cards and bingo...I will always keep those activities on the calendar. I would like to add some new spice to the calendar. They are independent. They all have their senses, some of them are getting to the point where they don't want to do a lot of physical activity. If any of you have any ideas please post for me. It would be most appreciated.

Hi guys
I`m doing an art project and I need examples of a man stereotype.

I don't need the definition...i just need one example, please.

Like "all men the same", "men cannot cook" or "good man is not easy to find".

Thank you

Understand that The Democratic Party are going to have their first ever national gay debate in the run up to presidential elections next year. I am wondering if you could ask them just three questions what questions would they be?
