Hip hop, R&B, funk, rock and roll, soul, blues, rag-time, jazz, and gospel music, country and techno. 90% of all the dancemoves.All of the unique American slang words .All the so called "southern food" aka "soul food...American past times such as Basketball, Baseball, and football afro americans hold all the records..

Even german and irish things are still considered foreign..But not Afro-American stuff..Why is that???

I notice that whenever I try to ask a serious question in a foreign Y!A section, all I seem to get are angry responses from my fellow Americans:

It's really frustrating because I know that other English-speaking countries are more polite and have more of a sense of decorum about these things...

We haven't run you guys off the system have we?

I am curious why so many men don't shop and if it's really due to the fact of wanting to be manly and let the women do it. And when you shop, why do you shop so basic, white t.shirt and khakis? Why not express yourself through your clothing?

For the last ten years, I heard how fat we are. Like so many Americans, I believed the lie. Over the years, I began to noticed how fat the British, French, and Germans are. It was not just a few but generally every fourth person. In the States, there are millions of health fitness clubs at full capacity. Americans are obsessed with becoming thin. Every year, millions (not thousands) of Americans lose major weight. In some cities like San Diego and Miami folk are bone thin. Nevertheless, obesed Europeans eating greasy sausages feel quite justified pointing their fat fingers our way. I remember seeing an Oprah show where French women were boasting about their ability to stay slim. Now, France is having a pandemic of obesity. When you visit your little fat grannies, try to remember that American grandmothers are at the gym toning up their bodies. It is not good to be too obsessed with the exterior, but we do not poke fun at Brits who are overwhelmingly becoming obese.

ever since 9th grade him and his friend (also non-white) have been fascinated with Nazism. They used to find it funny when Hitler would march and salute and whenever we hung out they would just salute and have a laugh. They would draw humourous comics of Hitler travelling to places like Asia and India (were pretty funny). I think they just thought the whole nazism culture was funny but their knowledge on it was quite vast. I remember at world history class he would score 100 on tests when the Nazism unit was being taught. There was one moment in our lives where he confronted a real nazi skinhead and accused him of not truly understanding the history of nazism and hitler's intention and he actually outsmarted the skinhead, even he was suprised. He has Jewish friends they know about his humor but they don't care I think ultimately he likes to learn about Nazism but he doesn't believe in its ideals. Is this normal? Do others joke about nazis like him?

I was curious and looked up black women in the search and found that 22,201 questions had been asked on black women. I was astonished. So I said there would probably be more questions on white women and hispanic/latina women since the have more in population, but I was wrong. White/Caucasian women only accounted for 18, 315 questions, Latina women accounted for a mere 1,555 questions and Asian women accounted for 5,245 questions. Obviously something is wrong.

So let me ask because I just want to know. WHY DO SOME OF YOU CARE SO MUCH ABOUT BLACK WOMEN? LEAVE US ALONE! Please :)
