A new doll test was conducted in which black children were given a black doll and a white doll to play with. 15 out of 20 of the kids preferred to play with the white doll. ( http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6181729 ). The result is very similar to the previous tests that were conducted during segregation. I've also heard that previously the test was conducted in many parts of the world, and most children preferred to play with the white doll. Is this a negative sign? Is this the result of a biased media, if not what is it?

I mean to say friends always stand by u when u r in crisis guide u support u counsel u but when u start expecting more from them(as a natural process) they either stop or become reluctant to continue the same way .Is expecting same consistency wrong? Then why in the begining they support u .Do they think crisis is short time or do they lose patience ,or interest?whats say?

I admire the way black people, asians, hispanics, etc can be proud of thier culture, skin and who they are. I have also noticed that its considered wrong to be proud if your white. Will this ever change? I am not ashamed of who I am. I deserve to wear my pride just like everyone else.

My husband is part Blackfoot. In photos of his Grandmother you can see that she is Native American. Her father was Norweigian, her mother Native American. Her birth certificate lists her as white. I have been told that because she had a father that was white, she was listed as that. Because Native Americans were discriminated against it was better to list the child as white.

DNA testing is not possible because this is a Mother to son to grandson. My husband father receives his mother's mitrochondrial DNA but cannot pass it to his offspring. My husband's father has passed away, so cannot do DNA testing there.

A friend of mine (caucasian) tried to tell me off the other day when I laughed while looking at this site. I tried to explain to her that it is meant to be funny, it isn't racist, it is a joke on racism, but she didn't get it. What do you all think?

Btw, I found it by accident awhile ago, I think it is hilarious and so do my black friends.

if a girl puts up a sexy pic neither guy nor girl will make a rude comment ( aside from immature things)

but if I, a guy puts up a pic up.. both girls and guys.. will pass judgement on me for having it.

it's like a double standard

I mean most comments are nice but who doesnt like compliments and why is it ok for a girl and not a guy

I think in this day in age we have become too politically correct and people have lost any sense of humour. Life is far too serious these days and people need to get a life! In relation to the Jade Goody thing, bulling I cannot stand racisim I cannot, but how can we define it as people take offence at different things.

I suppose Italia is just that much better than France. Or, do the French just not care about the World Cup competition?
