Why can white people have "Italian Pride Festivels" and where shirts that say "Everyone Loves and Irish girl". Have huge Greek Parades, that block busy streets for hours.

Yet if a black person was to where a shirt that says "Everyone loves a black girl" or have a "Black Pride Parade" it would be totally unexceptible. And when a black person wears and afro and African style clothing they are too Afro-centric.??

We have to just be BLACK since we don't know where exactly we are from. But why is it okay for a white girl to say "Im italian and I loooooooooooove it", but people roll their eyes when someone says "I'm black and I loooooooooove it. WHY????

there are so many weird-o's lingering about where i live, i suppose you could say its a somewhat bad part of town. How can i avoid these people without being rude???

whenever i take my dog out someone says something to me.
one guy told me he was shot in the face and showed me his glass eye, and took my hand to make me feel the huge indent in his head, and wouldn't stop talking to me, even tried coming in my house!
another man was peeing all over the sidewalk as he walked and i saw his trail of pee and said to the dog, what a psycho, very quietly and looked at him, he was far away and put up his arms like he wanted to fight and said 'WHAT, WHAT' i just looked at him, and he eventually went away.

another guy said he just got out of prison and wasn't sure of his address but tried explaining where he lived and told me to bring my dog over after it got bigger to breed it with his dog.

there is this girl that lives 3 houses down, always yelling and is just plain mean to everyone.

So what do you think, is it a valid question? Do people tend to REALLY think about it?
I don't shave my legs or anywhere else for that matter. I'm not trying to talk people out of doing what they do or into doing something else, I'm just simply asking.
I stopped shaving my legs 4 months ago. I will be wearing a skirt for the first time to school. I am slightly nervous because it's not something generally excepted. We'll see how it goes.
What is your opinion?
Please, serious answers.

Why do you find the need to make fun of that person? At lease they are trying to learn it, give them a break. For the most part you can ask them to re post the question in a better way or you can try to understand what they are saying. Lay off next time you see a posting with bad grammer please....I know I am going to try to.

If we the people of the Earth are the called the "Human Race" they why must our Governments continue to teach our children separation Race? They even go as far as to request you tell them what "Race" you are, on questionaires, applications and such. Even religious groups & or many religious individuals who claim to believe or claim to follow thier beliefs will interact just as our society has taught us for years to identify people by thier ethnic orientation.

I thought someone was calling me a hooker, but the term was 'hookah.' Since when did hookah become the next Mary Jane, and what exactly IS it? My boyfriend goes to a hookah bar every now and then, and I don't exactly think it's dangerous, but does it have any harmful health effects? I need substantial facts to back up what I tell him besides "I don't want you to go."

Some super joahovous witness people came knocking talking about wickedness in the world....... they ask what i thought about it... I replied with enthusiasm 'Oh I believe in goodness!' they looked one part stunned one part highly amused. Then they departed really quickly!

That made me smile!
