I am particularly attracted to Chinese women and had a Chinese girlfriend for close to two years. I thought that we got along rather well. She always called me a Chinese word--sort of like a nickname--which I cannot phonetically spell out properly; I thought it was a term of endearment. One day I asked her what the word meant in Chinese. She sort of laughed and said, "Oh, it means covered in hair like a dog." I didn't say anything, but I always wondered after that what she thought about me, whether she was attracted to me or just amused by me. I had always thought she was rather fond of me, but I was a little hurt when I found out what she had been calling me all the while. Even after she told me the meaning she continued to call me this. I know a lot of Chinese terms are euphemistic, and I wondered, can anyone tell me if this was a general term for white men, or a common view the Chinese have of white men, or was she saying something more personal just about me?

I am completely sick of all the poor grammar, spelling, and punctuation on this site. Until recently, I had been willing to give the transgressors the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to ignorance, i.e. simply not knowing any better. Now, I realise that there are many non-native English-speakers here, but it's pretty clear who they are.
I've finally decided to just ask, and, like a fool, hope for serious, honest answers.

Which is it? Was/Is your education so poor that were never taught or given access to materials to instruct you in the proper use of the language? Or have you simply so little respect for yourself and your expression that you choose not to exercise your skills?
I must say that I am particularly appalled when I come across questions posed by parents with school-aged children.
So, which is it?

If Yahoo is supporting this issue, like it looks like they are, then I have lost respect for the entire organization.

(Christians need a place to go where they can communicate without sin being a main topic of conversation.)

Say I move to New York from a southern state and I have a child in New York in which we live there for the rest of our lives. Will the child have an accent? Or is that in a certain type of culture? I'm not planning on moving there but I was watching Elmo with my daughter and the little kids on there have little New York accents since it's based out of New York and I was just wondering how the incur those accents. Thxs and I know it's a silly question but I was just wondering.

WEB DuBois wrote about it over one hundred years ago. The "double conciousness" of Black people. 100 years later Black people are still schizophrenic; still living to in two worlds at once; still having to say things like "I act one way around white people and another way around black people."

I know this does not apply to all of us. But if you have two personalities one of them needs to go. Dont you think?

I was the kid in the corner, wore all black and either a big winter hat to hide behind, or kept my hair in my face, and was always drawing. I never talked unless something p*ssed me off and then suddenly I'd become a loud mouth, and hid in the bathroom at lunchtime. I never had more than one or two close friends, and they were usually the exact opposite of me.

You?

im still cracking up at this one dude that answered my q. he said that racial stereotypes werent racist at all they are "based on intelligent thought and observation" and then he went on to say thatpeople only use stereotypes because "A LARGE PORTION OF THAT GROUP OF PPL ACTUALLY HAVE THOSE TRAITS". i cant stop laughing. its a bitter sweet moment....

oh yes because of course a person who stereotypes has met "A LARGE PORTION" of that group of people even though there are billions of people around the world....and what he sees on television MUST be an accurate representation...therefore he can totally accurately blanket a certain race with certain characteristics .....

are you ******** serious?! lol its funny because only on this website would i hear such bullshit. where the hell do these people come from? ignorance is bliss i guess...carry on.

I am sure there are al ot of lovely people in america that are conservatives, but my personal expiriences with some of them have been rather scary. Everytime i hear a republican politician adressing some issue i feel i am listening to the most close minded people i have ever met. It surprises me how so many people manage to merge religion, racism, and intolerance and dont feel that there is anything wrong with them. I gotta say i am more affraid of white american conservatives and their inability to look beyong thier out of date beliefs than anything else in the world, i hope i never set foot in that country, Are you as scared as i am?

I am half White and half Asian but I don't think I look very Asian. But it seems like everyone thinks I do. I have green eyes and light skin and I don't think I really look Asian more like Hispanic. My boyfriend is White and he says he considers me "Asian" but I get so mad when he says that. I don't know why.
