Then when a man cries and acts emotional, the woman runs away as fast as she can and whines "where are the real men?"

& I have a very diverse set of people I hang out with. It seems like people think i'm trying to be black. I'm on our schools step-team...and have so many people who make fun of me for it because i'm the "only white girl."
I like to Step. Plain and simple.
To me I just hang out with people. But to others I hang out with the "gangstas"
The different groups of people I hang out with would never hang out with one another. I just hop from one to another....

.....idk if there's an exact answer to this..I guess i'm just wondering what other people think? I'm open minded so don't worry about offending me.

Okay this question is more for white people. Why are so many white people having kids with other races? Don't you see that you may become a minority in the near future? Everyone will lose a sense of cultural identity. But white people will be affected the most. For example: if a black and white couple have kids, their kids won't ever look white. They will look black and they will be at conflict with their parents over which race to choose. I know this mixed girl who is half white, half black and she doesnt even acknowledge that shes half white.

I was looking at some magazines like Jet, Ebony, Essence, Vibe Vixen, King, XXL, and Sista2Sista. I was looking at the women inside the hair ads and some of the models and celebirties and I noticed that most of the Black models actresses all looked the same: they either had light skin or long and striaght relaxed hair. What is up? I wrote a essay about this for my African American studies class about how Black people prefer light skin over dark skin. I myself, I have very "African" features, I thick natrual hair, chocolate skin, and a hourglass body. I'm just staring to appreaciate my Afro-latino hertage and my skin color. It's hard because there are barely any dark skinned actresses and you always see dark skinned women in Black movies and vidoes potrayed as the villain or the hoe. I'm tried of it. why can't the dark skinned girl be the love interest of the pretty girl? Why do we have to relax our hair to assmilate? I think natural hair is so much better and easier to take care of.

All they do is moan about other peoples cultures and they are rude. They remain in their own groups and don't associate outside of them. Why not stay home? Oh wait I know why because your country is shiite.

I was just wondering if anyone had information about white children adopted into black families. I always hear about blacks adopting mixed or black children, and whites adopting white or other races. I have never seen a white child adopted into a black home before. I'm just asking because I'm thinking about adopting a child from Russia or Romania.

Alright, so some of my friends have noticed that I almost exclusively date Black women. Then it breaks down to Asian women then Latino/Hispanic women. ...but never white women. Some of my friends have concluded that I am "racist" because I refuse to date any ethnicity except for my own (White /Caucasian)... (this is because I'm not sexually attracted to the same skin tone)

I think I'm just quite partial to other ethnicities.

My company is going through some restructuring, and some people are losing their jobs. There are some metros in my office, but none of them are affected.

Are they protected by HR laws? When the time comes to give a promotion, is it possible that I will get passed over by somebody who is no more qualified than me, just because they are a metrosexual and it would look better for my company's diversity profile?

I was told by one of my college professors (in American history) that the term "African-American" is a generally acceptable term.

However, in my opinion, it implies that someone immigrated to the U.S. from Africa. The term is applied to a great deal of individuals who were born here and never came from Africa (had African descent) or were born here and were of Jamacian, West Indian descent.

I'm not racist or anything. My question is why do we apply the African-American term to those who have African descent but weren't born in Africa. It would be like applying a European-American tag to most people in the U.S. with European roots.

Any thoughts or comments about this?

I posted a quote/question by Redd Foxx on here making fun of stupid, ignorant and racist white people. Which I find to be so easy and fun, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. My question was pulled and reported, WTF? I'm white, why can't I make fun of my own people?

Yes,lemme ask a really sensitive question and get you all hot and bothered! I don't believe an apology would really change much but it would show that Western governments really are sorry for the atrocities of the past.No to mention that the 'slave mentality' still affects a lot of black people today.Ideally this apology should be done by the UK,America,Portugal,France,Germany,Holland and all the other European countries that divided up Africa like a turkey and carted it's people away.And if you call me a racist,you are a....

Michael Richards better known as Kramer from tv's Seinfeld, does make a good point. This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points.

Proud To Be White

Someone finally said it.
How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans,
Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You Call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' 'Honkey,'
'Whitey,' 'Caveman' ... and that's OK.

But when I call you, ******, Kike, Towel head,
Sand-******, Camel Jockey, Beaner, ****, or Chink ...
You call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,
so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United ***** College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah.
