Other - Cultures & Groups - December 2007

A lot of people call themselves "middle" class without real reason, on their quest for normality. However it would suprise these so called "middle" class members of society that they actually belong to the lower, working classes.

It's ironic, maybe, that I think I'm middle class.

What do you think you are- Lower, Middle or Upper Class?

Do you agree? In your opinion, are light-skinned women more attractive? Is it consider wrong (or racist) to find light-skinned women more attractive?

A friend of mine is black and he went to Poland. Well, when he went there all jaws dropped, he said it was like Micheal Jordan had arrived. They were constantly staring at him, taking pictures with him and hugging him. He said it was even hard to eat in peace. I'm assuming these Polish people never saw blacks before.

why is it that its more accepted in society if a black person makes a racist comment against a white person. if it was the other way around there wud b an uproar! like wen a stand up comic, black guy for example, makes a comment about white trash, no one bats an eyelid. I AM offended by white jokes, i dont have anything against anyone or ridicule them in any way about there color, y is it ok for them to do it to me? wen i was in a nightclub the other night, a black guy made a joke about white trash, yeah he was kidding ut thats not the point, if i had made a joke to him with the word n***a in it, u reckon he wud nt of minded? like hell.

what do you identify with if you are of two different races? Iam half black and half white and I identify with black because my mom taught me that, because when in public places no one will ever say I'm white of course but Iam obviously black to people when they see me, and the fact that people can be very racists at times. I hate it when people meet my mom and say "thats your mom"? Like she can't be because she is white. lol. people are funny at times.

Not meant in an offensive way, I have a lil black in me. I just found a website that was very racist and quite disturbing. And i justed want to hear from people who think black people are bad, or criminal, or baby rapers. I just want to know what makes you think that, and who do you think you are to be judging people (an entire race of people) that you don't even know? Thanks

I really want to do a study for a college course that involves wearing a traditional muslum burkah and going about my daily life in my small upstate NY town. I would monitor how differently I was treated, etc. How do you think the results would be?

As a black man I am absolutely baffled at the popularity of taking a name of common Anglo heritage and adding a prefix to it. This seems to be part of several overall trends among African-American names (the other trend appears to be simply misspelling names completely). I have seen LaDonna, LaMichael, DeShawn. . . there are hosts of other examples.

While I have no objection to naming your children whatever you want (they can always change their names when they get old enough, if they want) I am wondering WHY this has become a popular method of "blackening" a name. The closest I can come up with is a desire to evoke a connection Louisana's rich black culture by making names sound French (le-, la-, de-, des-). I am unable to find any real grounds for this belief, so I am hoping someone who might have some understanding of this phenomena can explain it and show a clear connection.

Also, why? This is urgent, so I'd appreciate any help by Thursday night.

Finally, no French-bashing or French jokes. I am a Francophile and have tired of all the bashing. Merci.
