Every job that i have been on there is always this but kissing white woman or man that think they are entitled to know why you are doing this or that and they usually hold the same position as you or have a lower position. I just think that they always have to feel like they are superior and have to know everything under any circumstance. I notice that whites tend to be the best but kissers and are always looking for brownie points from the boss man.

Is there a difference? I always thought that a cross dresser is someone who does it purely for sexual gratification and a drag queen is someone who does it purely for career reasons. But resently I had a friend tell me they are the same thing. Am I right or is he?

I have many friends from many different cultures but I was raised with very prejudiced family members. I have tried not to follow in their footsteps but sometimes I find myself thinking or saying prejudiced terms. I have talked to one of my best friends, who is black, and she says that she doesnt think that I am racist because I dont treat her badly but she does think that when I see black people who fit into the "poor black" stereotypes that I think racist things. I have never realized it until she said it but sometimes I do. Like if I see a black guy walking around with a rag on his head or in his pocket I automatically get scared. Am I racist?

A group of Arabian men were removed from an airplane because a passenger heard them speaking Arabic and became concerned.

The other passengers were given an hotel room while these men were kept in an interrogation room.

It ended up that these men actually worked for the US government and trains American Soldiers about Saudi customs, beliefs, etc.

Racism or Needed Customs?

maybe marriage would not be so bad after all if one could have as many wifes as one chose. that goes for the ladies too vice-versa. I could have one wife for her looks. one for her body. one for her cooking. one for her brains. one to take enjoy a good football game on t.v. one to clean the house. etc. etc. wow I went too far huh? ladies what would you do with so many husbands?

I'm not trying to be a smart *** I'm just curious. I would think being bisexual is a choice but then what if it isn't? What if bisexual people can really never commit to one sex, doesn't that make their lives even more complicated than if they were simply gay or heterosexual?

Is there such a thing as an FTM not getting her testosterone shots and just continue cross dressing? Also, when she ( or is it he?) grows old she (he?) will not really look male any more because the FTM has not gotten any t shots.

So is it possible for an FTM to live her life as male without getting any t shots?

I go to a top art college in nyc, i made some good friends, they all come from upper middle class backgrounds. One friend has an apartment in the city her parents pay for, i went to her parents home in upstate NY , they have a boat, nice 3 story house, cars, nice decor, etc.. all my friends are like this now..

Im really ashamed to invite them to where i live, but i know their prob wondering why i havent. I live in a poor area, in a rent controlled walk up, people blast music all night, play dominos in the street, have housing projects, thugs, etc. I have baby furniture still in my room, my mom is too poor to buy anything else.
i am white btw.
I just cant bear to invite them. I feel they will think less of me, be turned off, make fun of me, feel bad for me, etc
i told one girl i live with my Mom so you dont want to come over its boring...
I invited my ex over who came from a nice area, he was shocked, he told me he cant beleive someone like me lives in an area like this.

Do you get offended if someone says "That's gay." I don't mean for this question to be offensive in anyway, I am just wondering.

I hope not...but we did. Afterwards we saw an ECOLI warning about them. The same numbers /dates etc. are on our boxes. It takes 7 days before the symptoms to appear. Check on the computer for the dates and numbers...tell your grandkids etc. It might just be in Fl. ..but I don't know. Just wanted to make you aware of this.

Lawyers should never ask a Mississippi grandma a question if they aren't
prepared for the answer. In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting
attorney called his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to
the stand. He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?'

She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you
since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big
disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you
manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think
you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you never will
amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across
the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?'

To me I think of someone sick and frail, which does NOT describe most 60+ year olds I know.

It's more fitting to my fellow college students, who can't afford to eat and walk around campus pale with bulging tonsils and no time to make an appoitment with Student Health.

I try to use "Senior Citizen" instead. Anyway, what are your thoughts? How do you prefer to be categorized, when it's necessary of course. I know we are all individuals with names!

Why is the United States still accepting toys and contaminated foods from China after all the recalls, and sickness that is going on? I know that the labor is cheaper for them coming from China, but they have lots of companies here in the U.S that make toys and other products just as good as China

Im so sick of black gansters calling each other that, shouldn't they be offended by that word?? i swear, if Martin Luther King was still alive, he'd be SO MAD. a black once said "we turned that word into something positive". WHAT IS SO POSITIVE ABOUT IT??? That word was called by their ancetors as slaves, a word so hurtful for them, do u think they are making their ancestors proud using that word to greet each other everyday or putting it into a rap song?? i didin't think so. can YOU tell me why they are still using that word?
