What do you think about human beings having the ability to choose the sex and traits of the unborn? In especially patriarchal societies such as China the male is always kept but what is the ratio of boys to girls and who can carry on the generation if females are 'disposable?" i think its sick. Your opinions?

I've looked at a lot of questions on this site and there are a lot of really young people on here looking for conformation that the changes they are going through are normal. I've noticed that when the boys write in about about not feeling that the measure up people are supportive and tell them that it just takes time and everybody goes through that. However when the girls write in there are always at least a couple of people (not all) that give crule answers to the affect that there is something wrong with them. Why the discrepency? Everybody goes through changes at that age and it's hard for all of them.

I work with a woman with very nasty opinions about Asians and Native Americans. When she mentioned them, I corrected her and let her know that her comments were offensive (and believe me, they were).

She's on probation for other reasons and in an attempt to save her job, she told mgmt that I'm planning to file suit against the company for racial discrimination. This pisses me off, because she wouldn't have made this claim if I were Caucasian. Since this isn't true, I want someone to let her know that this is completely unacceptable, but, instead I was told to sit tight and be patient, because she's going to lose her job soon anyway.

I can't get over being pissed off. Am I wrong to expect management to take this woman to task? They're aware of her opinions, but everyone squirms whenever the word "bigotry" is mentioned

I think not, and I also think that removing the word "Black" from "Black Angus" was not necessary either...

It happened this week in Chicago. They say it's so that non-Christians are not offended. That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard. If you are offended by Christ and Christmas, then why on earth are you going to a Christmas festival? I'm offended by Islam, but you don't see me going to an Islam festival and complaining about all the Islam things that are there.

Check this out. Becuase we have been opressed for so long and because Caucasians are better at hatred, murder, manipulation, lying, and deceit, they appear to be superior. Howver we all know that hispanics are the hardest working folks in the nation aside from my oriental sisters and brothers. As far as intellect goes African American have proven that we are not only capable but superior in intellect than our Caucasian counterparts. Beacuse the majority of us are less fortunate than others financially due to our many years in captivity as slaves to our Caucasian brothers and sisters (God forgive them, for they know not what the do) only a few us get to attend Harvard, Yale and other ivy leagues. I am a witness that Caucasians skim by in these schools and get by because daddy and the Dean are frat brothers, while African Americans graduate with top grades.We are moe competitive in sports, the arts (singing, dancing, poetry, writing, photography, etc). Why in God's name do Caucasian still think that they are superior. They win in business and making the almighty dollar because they are ruthless and cut throat and will kill their own parents for money. They will lie still and cheat and murder for money even whe they don;t need it. We have had nothing but Caucasian presidents and this country has been **** forever which is why other countries hate us. I could go on but I'm sick of their racist, rude azzes. They have no manners and their children have no respect for them or anyone else - they drive like the don;t care about the other persons life and have the nerve to hate us - we are sicjk of you locking us up, having your police shoot us in cold blood, we are sick of you robbing us for our pay when you get twice as much to do the same job. I am sicking of them planting drugs in our neighborhoods and I am sick to my stomach for them diliberately giving Aids to my people in Africa. Now Aids is killing everyone even little White babies, White folks have destroyed this world and they continue to do so with racism, hatred and murder.

Let those babies in Iraq come home stupid *** racist *** Bush. Yeah Bush let my people in New Orleans die - that what racism does. We are sick of you too - you leave the World we are all multiplying go to your precious Moon and live there -

I am very competitive in beauty pagent competitions and i've noticed that white girls who are competing dye their hair blonde and wear blue contacts. even asian girls! they also have to wear tons of lighter makeup until they disappear. girls that are mexican has to make sure their accent sounds totally white and without mexican accent. the thing is, everyone copies of the white girls in the makeup room. i also know that black people with darker skin have a slim to nothing chance of winning. think about it. every african american that has won a pagent has been light skinned.( miss america etc..) why is dark features of color such a bad thing to people? The girl who just won miss world was a white blonde hair blue eyed girl also. a black female has never won miss world. u(unless it was prehistoric or something) Guess i'll just start using skin lightner. maybe then i'll win

I keep hearing that term on TV or in newspapers. In the East it would never be used, and I would personally find it offensive to be refered to in that way, it is as though they were saying that only Hispanics have ethnicity, and everybody else is just a plain old Engllish speaker. Does "Anglo" include black people? Is there any discussion about this?

In Argentina, it's rude, apparently, to pour wine from a bottle with your left hand. And pouring 'backhandedly' is said to indicate hostility. Is this true? If so, how does it work? Do you deliberately pour a bottle backwards to annoy someone? Is this true just in Argentina or elsewhere in Latin America too?

I'm all for equality but I swear I think the race/ sex card is played way too often. You don't see a white Miss America contest every year. We don't offer scholarships for whites only or even have a recognized whites only organization in support of whites college fund. When will the debt be paid. I have actually been turned down for jobs because I was neither a minority or a female. I can't get a scholarship. Can't we all just get along.

How does technology encourage the development of a worldwide culture? Do you think the impact of western lifestyles on other countries could be considered as a sort of western imperialism? Consider advantages and disadvantages of a global culture. What would be gained? What would be lost? What responsibilities does mankind have in relation to this global perspective?

What gets me really angry is a couple of months ago 2 asians got stopped from going on a plane cos some people thought they were terrorists

Do you honestly feel you are a blank with nothing, no heritage? If you call others africans call yourselves caucasians
I hate the lack of pride
white means = americanized bland with no heritage and albino
caucasian means= a variety of heritages that stem from the caucus mountains with a variety of skin hair eye colors
