I'm from New York, and I move down to Houston. I am a regular 16 year old boy who has a lot of pride from being from the Eastcoast (NY).

Okay, so if someone disses New York or the Eastcoast, should I beat him up, and should I diss Houston?

What should I do?

Ron Price, a Dallas school board member, has asked the City Council to look at strengthening the law to give citations to those who expose their underwear.

"I think it's disrespectful, it's dishonorable and it's disgusting," said Price, who made the recommendation last week to the City Council. "I have no problem with the top of your Hanes label being shown. My problem is when grown men walk about the city with pants below their buttocks."

I would like to hear your comments. Thanks.

I was in a conversation with someone recently and i said "stay away from those hoodrats." From my statement, the person that i was talking to suddenly accuses me of being ghetto or a wannabe black. My question is, Is it common for American youth, particularly this generation to use slangs such as "front", "wifey", "hoodrat" and "homie" ? I'm asking this because it seems as if *insert race* uses these slangs, they're automatically considered wannbe-blacks.

I don't know how I made it home from the grocery store in one piece today. As I was backing out of a parking space, one asian c*nt couldn't wait for a second or two for me to do so. She kept going as if she's on open road; she almost clipped my bumper. As I was driving down a main street, another g o o k cut me off and almost took out my fender. Then to top it all off, some devil-worshipping hindu tailgated me until I got to my home street. And that's just today.

In my other previous near misses, I say 90% of the perptrators were asians.

I hate to generalize, but there it is. May God forgive me for such a thought...Amen.

I understand that the aids rate is rising at an alarming rate amoung black women as oppose to women of other races but why isn't protection and the use of condoms being utilized more by black women if such is the case? black women catch way more slack about the alarming aids rate that they contracted in the first place from irresponsible, misguided black men and why? Also, black women are not the only race of women sleeping with these dogs with fleas but seem to be the to be only ones waking up itching. I think black women are probably the only ones who are not taking careful steps in protecting themselves why is that?

Im not just talking about the sexually attractive sense. But in my opinion the human female is God's most perfect creation. The way they look, talk, walk. Everything they do is a work of perfection. I love their sensitivity, their femininity, all that stuff. Anyone else feel the same?

This is actually a question that I already know the answer to. I know a lot of you will not admit to it, or actually might not realize that you do it. However we ALL do. I just want to see how many people will think about it and admit to it. So do you admit to stereotyping? Stereotyping may not mean that you are prejudice. Do you realize you apply labels to people?

I learned this in my studies in psychology. It didn’t turn over well with many of the students though. Primarily the act of stereotyping is a mostly unconscious process performed by the brain to quickly process social information. We have categories, generalizations, and labels we apply to people so that we can easily retrieve it when we need more information about a person than what they have told us. This goes for race, religion, gender. More positives are tied with white, and negatives are more commonly tied with black.

Repetitive information received by certain types of people will soon end up creating a group inside of our minds. We then assume that everyone will fit into that group until we find that our information was inaccurate. This only happens when the stereotypes are totally out of whack or untrue with a numerous amount of people. Other than that, we apply a temporary label until we find out more about the person. However, you most of the time will judge a book by its cover.

Check out this link for more info if you don’t believe me. http://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/...
A more mainstream book based on the psychology of the unconscious mind is the book Blink by Malcolm Gladwell.

I just read a question asking which race has it the hardest and a lot answers were from white people saying white people have had it the hardest. Okay, I must be missing something because I'm white and I've never really had any struggles or have had to deal with anything hard, I'm not even rich, I'm middle class. A lot of the answers were saying that white people get called racist a lot. Well that's never happened to me and if you do get called a racist you probably are and just don't know it. I guess my point is, I don't think white people have the right to complain having it the hardest, because it's not true, we don't have it the hardest. I know my story isn't the same as everyone else's but I'm talking about white people in general.

Here's the question that was asked:
