but I don't know how to approach the subject with my nearest and dearest who DO agree with it. The reasons are that it is a Christian festival and in my humble opinion should be there for Christians to celebrate the life of Jesus Christ. Not for kids to EXPECT presents by the bucket full. Also, I hate the way that companies promote items as 'Must have' for Cristmas. Pressuring parents into buying them for their kids. Many people get into debt so they can have a 'Good christmas' What about the rest of the year when you can't afford to do anything family orientated because you are paying off the debt of last Christmas?
But I digress, my question to you good people is... How do I explain my feelings to my nearest and dearest WITHOUT sounding like I think they are mugs for falling for the 'Great Christmas Con'?
Chrismas is about Jesus Christ ( should you believe in him) NOT about spending loads of money to show how much you love someone. There are many ways to show your love.

I do this every year, and I'm not used to it by now. Every year that sound relaxes me or whatever, and I end up sick.

......I hear the complain all the time: ,,A woman is not a piece of meat.'' Uh, yeah that's right. If I want meat I'll go to the store. Besides, only cannibals look at anyone as a piece of meat.
......We are men... well straight men. If a man doesn't look at you that way, he's looking at your brother then.
......Now you may not want to be looked at like that, but it's part of being in public. Just like when some crazy guy is handing out fliers or whatever. Goes with the territory.
......Anyways, you'll be very appreciative when that's your man and he's looking at you like that.
......Yeah we gotta have manners about it, but if your hot, that is one of the highest compliments you could give, without saying a word.

How many whites are tired of being stereotyped as anglo saxon. I am not anglo at all or pink or blue eyed.

I was walking to school today and some guy driving by shot his head out of the car, wolf whistled, and screamed "Damn", and then sped away. Why do they do that? Do they think it makes us want them, or something? Is it supposed to makes us feel good? Because it irritates the hell out of me.

Not to say other races are ugly, but white women have very attractive sleak noses, wonderful hair, fair skin, etc.

Not looking at America, but at the entire human population and the world in general, can you list the races in order or majority to minority?

Ps. This isn't a racist statement but an honest question : ) Thanks guys...

With the newest school shooting coming out on the news I started wondering. Why is it always white people that have been shot or did the shooting that make it on the news?

In inner-cities there are shootings every night and inner-city school shootings don't even make it on the news most of the time. All the shootings I can remember that have made it to the national (not local) news stations have been involving white people (that hunting guy in the woods, the Cheney hunting accident, and now the school shooting). I am not saying that all these things are not trajic, but I used to live in Philadelphia and I know the shootings that go on there every night. Those shootings never make it on the news (sometimes on the local news but never on the big networks). And, don't give me the crap about gang violence, because many of the shootings involve innocent people getting killed and it still does not make the news.

I know the answer is racism, but I'd like to know what you all think.

I see that there is a Black Movies Award coming on TBS pretty soon. I thought I would beat all of you to the punch and posting your complaints...

Why do blacks get to have their own movie awards? How would they like it if we had the White Movie Awards? White Entertainment Television? The White House? Oops that is real. A White Christmas? Darn, that's real too. The Great White Hope? Drat, Emimem, so I can't use that one either.

From studying introduction to sociology, I found that there is actually no such thing as race. It was just man-made. Therefore, there is no such thing as a superior race...I am wondering how it came about??? any thoughts on this??
