Other - Cultures & Groups - June 2007

I'm in collections so I have to call people who own credit cards and don't pay their bills. What I am wondering is why the hell are these people such assholes. They are the ones who aren't paying their bills. I'm just doing my job tryin to make a living like everyone else. It seems like everyother call I make some one calls me a ***** a whore or something and they flip out on me like I am this evil person.

Am I white washed because I don't have very many blackfriends? Am I white washed because I'd prefer to date a white woman over a black woman (not saying that I don't date or like black woman) Am I white washed because, I do like white woman?

You see I got this coworker that has a raging hard on for all things German. He likes Rammstein ( a German industrial metal band) and shortly after he buys a book learning the German language. I asked him if he is German and he said no. Now how stupid is this. He even put a sticker of a German flag on his car. Why doesn't he put a sticker of an American flag or a country he actually originates from? What is wrong with people? I know he wants to form an identity like all people but what he is doing and so many other people are doing is being fake and dishonest with themselves as well as others. Another coworker I know has a hard on for everything Japanese. He is a dork and loves this anime stuff. He is obviously not Japanese just normal hamburger and milkshake American. I asked him why he liked that stuff and he said, "Japanese culture is awesome." Now I know people have interests in other cultures but it seems they are into these cultures because they don't know or like their own.

For example. My foundation is the black church and dedicated wonderful parents. The knowledge and worship of God and the molding of my parents made me who I am. What or who fashioned you into the person you are today?

Whenever I walk by a black guy, he acts nervous and scared of me. I'm white. But, whenever I walk by a group of blacks, they are all mouth. Are most blacks as gay as they seem to be?

Is it the skin tone
the supple lips and backside
The strength in her eyes
the smell of egyptian jasmine
that whispers love
into my ear...

Or is it the God in her?

I'm completely disoriented by the comments left on yahoo answers, regarding Ethiopian race/ ethnicity. The most frequent answers include Middle Eastern (Arab), Semitic, and others agree they are ultimately *******. According to anthropological studies, the Hominid species Australopithicus afarensis (Lucy) was found in Hadar, Ethiopia. "She", by far, outdates the "ice man" of the Italian Alps, and is known to have been an early ancestor of Homo sapiens (humans), more closely related to blacks. Well, if modern Ethiopians aren't black, what happened to these hominids??? And what race, in particular, do they belong to? Please inlcude intelligible answers.

I work in an inner-city library and it is so damn frustrating the number of kids who come in and who ONLY want to play games on the computer! They don't want to read, that would be too DULL! The parents don't even come in with the kids and they won't get them library cards! Why don't these parents get involved... come with their kids to the library, read with them, etc? And I know that some days they work, but even on weekends we have almost NO PARENTS up here! AUGHHH!

I'm a black and latin woman. I want to know what do you feel about black men and their respect (or disrespect) for women today. Do you feel discouraged? Encouraged? Do you date outside of your race offen, or not at all? I think personally that black men are being more and more disrespectful of women. I also think that they make it cool for other men to disrespect us. When you find a good black man he's worth the world, but they seem to come few and far between now-a-days. I would like to change my mind. So I'm asking.

They act like monorities aren't racist.

From my personal experience, there are FAR more racism and discrimination against White people. Plus minorities tend to be a lot more racist than White people.

For an example, Black comedy/TV shows often making fun of White people, but you NEVER see White comedy/TV shows making fun of minorities

He's passionately professing his love for me, though we haven't even met or hardly had detailed conversations. It's very romantic and I'm tempted to go with it, but I'm not...at this point. I've told him I want to get to know him better before letting go of my heart and he's agreed, though not lessened his professions of love. If anyone can offer advice as far as pursuing a romance with a Nigerian man, please offer it.

I have heard anecdotal accounts of African Americans in France, Germany, and Russia among others that native born or immigrant blacks are looked at poorly and discriminated against while African Americans are well recieved and respected. Is this true?

I think its more like you dont notice them as they are not trying to get attention,

you have been programed to see those that stand out, how ever

if you were to walk down your street and see three black males two of which were dressed in suits and one who was in jeans, a t-shirt and had a mouth full of platnium teeth, a necklace with a huge pendant, and a base ball cap,

you would be more likely to remeber the guy with the jewels than the men in siuts,

that being the case, think about perception, and how you have been programed to immediatly notice somethings and filter out others

Televison, Its called programing for a reason. :)
