is it generally accepted in the American society?

It struck me as odd that you use the terms blacks and whites about people at this site, seeing as it's very unusual where I come from(Norway). It's actually frowned upon here, if not used to make a point. What I'm wondering about is if it's just here, or if you do it otherwise to?
If you do, doesn't that seem a bit rascist?

On the internet i´ve seen many times they call spanish to mestizos and people who are less than a spanish from Spain only cause they speak spanish. I wonder if they call english to a southafrican mulato living in south africa who can speak english?
Then... why don´t u use the therm spanish correctly? Spanish is for the people of Spain or for the language

I noticed that when a white person commits a crime. They refer to them by name, but when it is a black person they would say that those blacks or a black person.

White women do seem to be obsessed with black men. White women I've seen chase black men harder then they do white men. Even some of the things I seen white women do for black men, they wouldn't do for a white man. Black men are so fine that sometimes I don't blame them but I think they should focus the same energy on being with white men, maybe their divorce rate wouldn't be so high.

Using foul and vulgar language to insult and personally attack the contributors instead of commenting on the issue. Is it because of immaturity? or perhaps because of dysfunctional family background. If the shoe fits, wear it.

I asked a question purely to mimic the idiotic nature of sooo many, I was shocked that I got soooo much support at a blantantly racist question..

Why is it that someone can post an anti american/british/male/female (yes I know M/F isnt a race!) and purely on the basis of that get support...

Why do others join the attack instead of defending when someone is being moronic and narrow minded..

Wars start because people support their own country, religion etc, without even considering the opinion of others may be more accurate....

I slated Americans...I got sooo much support from people agreeing, though they really should have just told me to SHUT UP!!

I actually have two. One next door and other on the street behind me. The crazy thing is. I live in a poorer section of my town.
GOD BLESS

I haven't met all Asians but this is about 80% of my experience. I get (and) friendly smiles and nods from whites, blacks, and hispanics but the Asians I meet are evasive. They glance at you and then look away, as in away. Like some women I encountered....I smiled at them but they turn away and don't smile back like they are unhappy to see me. Some give unfriendly looks. I am also Asian so I was expecting the other Asians would embrace me more. What's wrong? This is confusing.

These radio personalities are advertising themselves as the first "gay" radio program. And they're trying to find ways to increase the number of openly gay personalities in the media.

But when I turn on the radio or news, I'm looking to hear music, news, or weather. I don't give a %$#! about the sexual preferences of the newscaster.

It seems like gay people always assume that everyone is interested in their sexual preference. It's none of my business. You don't hear me going around telling everyone "I'm straight!" so why do gay people go around telling everyone they're gay? I don't hate gay people. I just don't care. And it annoys me that they think I care.

I'm not interested in hearing about other peoples' sex lives. And I definitely don't want my kid hearing about peoples' sex lives
