Other - Cultures & Groups - September 2007

"International Talk Like a Pirate Day" is coming up, and it seems like many people are excited. I can certainly see what's in it for the guys; the swashbuckling lifestyle with freedom, treating women like wenches, etc. must seem appealing. What do the women like so much about it? I'd love to hear from guys and girls about this one: why is it so fun to talk like a pirate?

Okay, I'm like 33 1/3% combined Cherokee, Tuscarora, and Navajo descent. So because I am a Black Indian, I mark 'black and 'native american' on applications or whatever. Why is it that so many of my black native friends and family would just put native american and not black? WTF is this? I mean, they'll tell you in a heartbeat what tribe they are from, but they won't own up to their black blood?

I ask because I keep seeing "Latino heritage month" and "Black history month". Don't take this as my complaining please. I'm genuinely curious if there is such a thing. I'd like to find a time to celebrate my heritage and gather with others who would like to as well, but it doesn't seem like there are many events groups or festivals celebrating much European heritage. I mean, there's Italian and Irish, and I'm Irish, but I'm German, Swiss, Scottish, French, and English too and in school, people were skeptical about letting European Americans celebrate their heritage, although minorities could celebrate theres. Please don't take offense, I just wonder if there's anything in any of the states anyone lives in where people get together and celebrate, or anything along those lines? Just interested in hearing about it, I'd love to get involved.

I have acknowledged that your renumeration is dissipated on superficial rubbish, and I am currently experimenting with divergent ideas to have an increased gamut of possible successes.

participate in the regular Miss America pageant (often winning). Wouldn't there be OUTRAGE if there was a White Miss America Pageant? Wouldn't that be racist?

Hi, I am English, moving to Scotland soon to live on my lonesome. I was wondering, at 22, is it likely that I'd even pick up the barest trace of an accent?

Thanks!

iam french, i was born in south east france and aim to immigrate from britain.
but alot of brits taunt me claiming like they know me personally, or feel as though they have place to comment about aspects about my life.
i can't avoid these people because their all around, outside in society...alot of brits seem to dont like me...or look at me with lingering looks.......but thats fine because i don't like them either and i find it hard not to show them contempt after the way theyve treated me here since i came here at 7 years old.

i aim to immigrate to the u.s or canada or another hot climate....but right now i feel stuck here in britain where i dont want to be.....because unfortunatly i have depression and psychological problems to deal with like anger and anxiety because of all the trauma ive survived here in britain.

one british girl taunted me and said i wouldnt get into america....and plus all americans would hate me and treat me like the brits do, because they like brits

What exactly is a cowboy?

Did cowboys really existed or did they only exist in the movies? Are you considered a cowboy only if you ride horses and carry revolvers?

Do cowboys still exist today?

Why do some people so unkindly brand George W Bush a cowboy? Why is it other people are not branded as such? Is it also true just because you are an American, you are a cowboy?
