Cultures & Groups - 31 August 2007

Anyone who organises a drama group knows one problem is the much greater number of females than males.
What is more, if one asks 'What is the most feminine job or role'? The answer is very often 'actress'. To the question 'Is the most masculine role "actor"?' you get hoots of laughter and comments like 'Half of them are gay!'
Why is this?

When you hear " White power" or "Black power" or stuff like that, it always amazes me because that doesn't make any sense. It's like saying " Tall power" or "Medium Weight power"...you didn't contribute anything, had no say or choice in the matter.
Now race and culture is different. If you're Irish, Italian, Brazilian or Zimbabwean, you can be proud of the accomplishments or achievements of your family, ancestors and history.That's understandable and you can also argue that you're contributing.
I can understand African Americans though because I define them more of a culture than a race. I mean, after all, they don't know where they came from but their history is similar once they were in the US. And there's usually a big cultural difference between an African American and an African even though they're all black.

I'm asking this question in this category since it's such a hot topic "spot". (Just thought I'd explain myself before someone asks.... Although I will probably ask the same question in another category.)

If you've learned something, do you mind sharing? I'm just a curious cat. ☺

Thanks for your answers. ♥

I am sick of heterosexuals forcing their lifestyle on me. Everywhere you look there they are holding hands kissing in public it is disgusting. I can not enjoy a movie or TV show without seeing a disgusting heterosexual relationship. God when will they stop with the straight agenda?

choose the gay animal lifestyle, can they be "trained" out of it, or are they going to animal hell when they die if they don't repent?

My friend is BI & I'm straight, & many people say, "You're not BI, you're a confused lesbian." I think that's SO mean!

If a married woman get's involved with another woman, the married woman is called BI, If a married man gets involved with another man, he is gay. I think they are both discusting and gross, why are there two different standards?

Why in the hell are you agreeing and siding with these people-who are are self-righteous, and racially insensitve against all ethnic groups-when you are in fact Asian? Why don't you ask them how they feel about your race? I bet they wouldn't have anymore nice things to say about Asian people, than they do about any other race....And you wouldn't appreciate hearing negative things about YOUR race... Just as much as other people don't like hearing negative thing about their race.

So basically, you are a JOKE. You need to look in the mirror and realize who you really are.... And realize that because people look and act different than you, it doesn't mean there is something wrong with them! THERE IS SOMETHING REALLY WRONG WITH YOU!

Girls that do this like aaliyahlong or nialong or whatever her name is....what a headcase.Im a black guy and im laughing at the amount of effort yall put into getting answers about the SAME THING.nialong must be pretty ugly if shes light skinned and cant get a white dude.
Why dont you black woman get a life and stop using yahoo answers for the soul purpose of asking the same questions over and over?If you want to hear the truth....white guys dont like Black girls...thats why they dont give you any attention....and if they do...its usually the light skinned ones.

It seems today that many people are over focused on sexual orientation or gender identity. Let us take this time to remind them that this is a single thing in the multitude of ideas and accomplishments that makes up our personality.

Besides being a LGBT individual what are you proud of?

I trust India much more than I would ever trust China making my things. India has an appreciation of individual accomplishment while Chinese seem to only think about how much money they can make regardless of how they get it. Whether it comes by adding poison to fabricate protein content of blatant copyright infringement. At least India has pride. The world will probably never be able to return from outsourcing, but we could at least outsource to countries that actually care about their citizens and have some pride for their own accomplishments instead of looking for handouts and playing the victim card. India was colonized much, much longer than China and don't complain at all compared to the latter. Vietnam ended their war with the US 30 years ago and still hold less animosity than Chinese toward Japan even though they fought over 60 years ago. What do you think? Is it finally time to care about where we have our products made instead of going for the cheapest available?

I have a big scar on my upper left arm from the DPT (I think) mess they used to give us in school. We used to get innoculations all the time and I can remember my arm aching like crazy and being all red and swollen. My first husband had his on the top of his right thigh, it was as big as my thumb.

VERY grateful for critiques, positive or negative or simple reactions to this piece I wrote about love after death, unrequited love and friendship.

The following is a direct link to the piece I wrote as it is on my blog and way too long to post here:

Thanks in advance. The piece has been accepted for publication in a UK mag but I want to rework it if any of you have any criticisms
