why is it that the people who get mad about being stereotyped are the ones acting stereotypical? it is so annoying! if you dont want to be stereotyped then dont act that way! it makes me so angry when people pull the race card. stop using what happened to your ancestors as an excuse! its almost 2007, things have changed, we are all equal. we all bleed the same color. a friend and i went out to dinner the other night and we sat across from this woman who was being so loud and rude and talking about how white people are dumb and how she is so tough and blah blah blah. come on! if you want people to respect you, act respectful! i almost said something to her but after she said how she use to work at kfc...well, it was all over. she proved my point. dont complain about being stereotyped for being loud, rude, obnoxious and liking chicken when you are all of the above. dont get me wrong, i am not racist at all! i just strongly dislike ignorant people...no matter what color they are.

I have 3 children. A 9 yr old, 6 yr old, and a 4 yr old. My husband works out of the home and is a volunteer firefighter. Every year at Christmas and New Years we are invited to various parties and everyone seems to get frustrated with me when I tell them we can't attend because of the kids. Most of these people have older children or they have relatives that will babysit for them. My parents are both semi handicapped. My mother has MS and my dad has severe arthritis. My father in law travels alot with his job and is hardly ever in town. We honestly cant afford to pay a sitter to stay with the kids for us to go to a lengthy or all night party. And I know it upsets my husband when I tell him we cant go. This year I told him to go to the New Years party alone, I would stay home with the kids. Why do these people keep getting offended when they know the answer and was I wrong in telling him to just leave me home?

...dream in color, experience deja vu, sense other people's presences, and so on and so forth? Do they simply think that just because it's never happened to them, it doesn't happen? Or are they just too reliant on science and not listening to their instincts?

I've noticed this especially on this website - why are people so racist? What's the deal? Why is there this need to spew this ignorant hate on a website, most of which I doubt people would have the courage to say to a minority's face. Please explain.

I understand they never had to shave, never had beards or mustaches. How can that be?

tell them I do not and have not ever tried it? Has it really become so mainstream that it is automatically assumed that people use it rather than not?

From as long as i've remembered whites have always had this problem of taking blacks as lesser humans than they are.I live in south africa and it has been 16 years since we gained independence from white opression, even after the crimes that were done against us we still forgave white peolple but they still do not see our humanity.Why are white people so greedy? You never hear stories of black people going to Europe to try and take over, we never seeked to take what belongs to the white man but whites managed to take so much from us.I live near a place called Cullinan where the biggest diamond in the world was found and i fail to understand why some queen in europe wears on her head and not a piece of it was left in Africa? Despite the forgiveness white people are still arrogant and also don't want to admit to the faults they commited. We have been likened to monkeys and killed because we do not deserve to live.Even if you contest what i am saying,deep down you know it is the true!!!!!

I live in London and my town is predominately black african. I can very easily get a bus to work and find myself the only non black person on the bus. Also hardly any of them can speak English! as I found out when I needed directions. Why should white people be a minority in their own country?

When I drive in the summer I wonder why the dozens of footballers wives wannabes and assorted other posers can't hang loose and drop the soft top when it's not raining. What's the point ? I would love at least one sensible answer - that might be a challenge.
