Other - Cultures & Groups - September 2006

It seems a social order that pays no attention to grammar, diction, proper contractions and even less to enunciation would wear this shortcut in speech as a badge of honor instead of taking offence...you got it your way. It saves words and sylabbles isn't that how they speak? Is that only convenient when you say it is?

Isn't that like saying "I am proud to be from ignorance, poverty and a never ending circle of violence that I don't want to change."?

Question #2: Since they are millionaires now why do they insist on still living in the ghetto and glorifying ghetto ways.

Wouldn't the smart thing to do be to get out of there and not look back?

Why must people define their individuality through association with a shared group ethic.
Be it race, religion, nationality, fashion, music or culture?
Why must a person define themselves as Germanic?
Why must a person define themselves as Black or White?
Why must a person define themselves as Gay or Straight?
Why must a person define themselves as a Punk or a Rockabilly?

Why are people under the illusion that individuality through association with others is something to be proud of?

Coherent answers welcome. Thanks

Jesus may have done some really clever things, but really he was just an ordinary guy.

being a coolie girl I get upset when people call me mixed race(half black and white) not because I hate them but when they usually say that they look at my hair and make the decision but I have quite brown skin and I don't think I’m light skin and if my hair was short they wouldn't think that. also usually it means they think black people can't grow hair so the only way my hair could be that way is if I was half white but I share nothing in common with the looks of mixed race(half black and white people) expect my hair. I am not racist or any thing but if for the past 9 years I have been living in England, London you are being asked that question you can understand how you can get upset it gets annoying. But the question is- is their any coolie girls or guys that get the same thing and feel the same way, don't you think how long blacks Caribbean people have been in England they should of realised about coolie people or is it just ignorance.

I want to down load some Native American spirital pictures. I love the scene where they blend wolfs, bears and native land together, those type of scenes.
Please forgive me if I have use a wrong word in saying Native American because I am not trying to be rude or insult anybody. I love some of the culture of the Indians. I think we can still learn a lot from there culture. I do not live in America and I don't know the correct wording. I do love the spiritual pictures you guy's do. Thank you guy's from the bottom of my heart.

Tell me why people do not know how to bid? The original reason for ebay was to bid on items, hoping to get them for cheaper than normal costs. People are so stupid they do not realize they can save a lot of money. First of all, NEVER BID on an item when the auction first starts. That is just retarded. All you are doing is raising the price. If people were smart they would all wait until the last minute and then bid. Guess what!? You may not win, but atleast you aren't paying a grip of money for the same crap. Just keep doing it until you win! And yes i do understand the reserves, which i guess is ok. But, for idiots that bid 6 months before the auction ends, what are you thinking?

I asked a question about black women being negatively stereotyped more than any other people in America, and someone brought up slavery. Someone else said that "white peope have it hard too". I wasn't talking about white people, and I never said that they didn't have it hard (define hard) I said nothing about slavery or anything that happened in the past.. Do you think these people who always bring up slavery are having some issues with race?

In my opinion being mexican in this country is extremly hard and especially in LA where mostly mexicans live but none of us seem to be getting ahead. I dont know if its because of our own family or because we really cant get a break. I think everyone makes what they want out of their own life but how is it that in la the only succesful public figure thats seen in tha mass media is the mayor whos hardly mexican cuz he looks more like a token to me!! Its stupid that in LA my intelligence is always put to a question and ppl naturally assume i just crossed the border(not that theyres bad in taking what belongs to us back!!!!)but i would like to be seen as intelligent and potentially succesful as oppossed to a frijolero(which I AM and proudly !but thats for me to say,not for others to assume!) And yes i can do more than cut the grass or be a sancho to your wife(latin lover mith...TRUE!!)but i digress...

As asked before in a question about the 1980's, I am doing a paper about youth culture of back then compared to now. I wasn't born at this time and internet information does not give much first hand thoughts about it. So, if you were a 1960's teen, I want your answers!

I think they're sooooo sexy, and attractive, I've never dated one before

Theres this white guy at my job who's sooo hot? I always talk and joke around with him, but im ready to move to the next level with him..

Being with plenty of black guys, I already know what they want but what about white guys..How should I go about trying to date him without being too pushy..

What would be a white guys positive perspective if a Beautiful (LOL) black girl like me wanted to date you after seven months of joking and flirting with you? And you pretty much got to know me?

I would love to hear somebodys insight, preferably a white guy

And please spare me..No racist turds, go start your own drama

God went to the Arabs and said, "I have Commandments for you that will make your lives better. The Arabs asked, "What are Commandments?"
And the Lord said, "They are rules for living.”
"Can you give us an example?"
"Thou shall not kill.”
"Not kill? We're not interested."
So God went to the Blacks and said, "I have Commandments."
The Blacks wanted an example, and the Lord said, "Honour thy Father and Mother."
"Father? We don't know who our fathers are." We're not interested.”
Then God went to the Mexicans and said, "I have Commandments."
The Mexicans also wanted an example, and the Lord said "Thou shall not steal."
"Not steal? We're not interested."
Then He went to the French and said, "I have Commandments." The French too wanted an example and the Lord said, "Thou shall not commit adultery." "Not commit adultery? We're not interested."
Finally, He went to the Jews and said, "I have Commandments."
"Commandments?" They said, "How much are they?"
"They're free."
"We'll take 10."
...........There, that ought to offend just about everybody.

okay there is this guy he's not my average type of guy. he's emo not hip hop or even black. for some reason, i think or i feel he is the first guy i really like. I don't care that he is not all that cute or that me and him together would look weird. I don't really talk to him but i'm actually confident about liking him. i don't care if all the girls or my friends think he is ugly. what does that mean?
