It is a big issue in my state (Washington) which has recently made it illegal. Even if they got rid of the race or ethnicity category altogether, a university would still probably choose a Jamal Brown or Jose Martinez over a John Chen or David Goldstein.

Does it give white and asian students an impression that they need to try harder? Does it give Latino and black student an impression that they don't need to try as hard? Or is it the best way of getting over socioeconomic issues that aren't changing and just giving the groups in a need an extra bump to ultimately equalize it, at least for their children (if your parents went to college, especially if your a minority).

Should it be just about test scores and grades? Do these scores show biases? Or is it more important for universities to admit based on diversity and experiences? What do you think? Because honestly I can't decide which.

Girls these days have plenty of support groups. I am concerned for the males in our society. With the current pressures of modern day culture, men are being feminized. What is happening is most men are being conflicted with their inability to know the difference between the role they contribute to society and their relationships, and roles that have been inflicted on them due to the media and current culture. The feminazis are demanding of men these days to play all roles from understanding and being emotionally open to being strong and protective while the the females view themselves as to only play one, the effeminate role. This lop sided behavior is taking a tole on society. On the other hand we are finding that most effeminate males or homosexuals are being even more conflicted by not understanding their own masculine identity. Why is that most homosexual males are finding it appropriate to act in a way that is effeminate due to thier current cutural preseptions? When in fact most gay men are not effeminate in their behaviors at an early age or until they observe other gay men and believe that that constitutes normal homosexual behavior?

Why do black people want to be called African-american, even though they were not born in africa or never been there? If you were born here, you are just american. We are all americans, and our race is another subject. Also, there are white people that are African-american, so that does not distinguish your race. Ex: Charlize Theron, blonde hair, blue eyed, actress and african-american.

I just broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years and he was latino. And now this hot white guy in my AP Literature is trying to get my number. He's ver nice, smart, and charming and I'm going to give him my number. But this Black guy in my class said that I was a sellout because I had a Latino boyfriend and I'm about to go out with a white guy. Why are people still thinking negatively about interracial relationships?

I really hate it when anyone pushes in front of me to get to an elevator or a cashier before me and don't have the decency to say excuse me! It really makes me want to give then a piece of my mind but then again, that would be sinking to their level.
