I am not saying the questions to belittle ppl. Those are usually statements DISGUISED as questions. I mean like real questions because a person may want opnions from that particular group.

Also, if it is addressed to another race, sex or cultural group, if you are not who the question is addressed to why do you answer?

Bozie Bear don't use my question as a platform for your rhetoric. Stick to the question at hand.
Thanx

I just don't like the stereotyping, like "Why do ALL women..." or "Why do ALL white people.....". But "To African-Americans" or "Men only" doesn't bother me.

no, because if I was an extremely fair skinned red head and wanted to know the best sunscreen, or the best way to get rid of freckles, I would want someone with similar issues to answer. Or if I was overweight and wanted to find people who had lost a lot of weight, or if I was afro-amer girl and wanted to know the best hair straightner, or whatever target group I was going after. If the question was posted just to ridicule a certain group than that person is obviously an idiot and people won't answer and he (or she) will look foolish.

I dont feel discriminated, but I just dont know why someone would ask a question and then only want a narrow based opinion in return. If you have access to this huge group on diverse opinions you should use it. You might be opened up to a point of view you havent thought of before

No, I don't. If someone is looking for a sampling of men's opinions on something, it probably means that they're getting plenty of women's opinions already (from friends or whatever.)
I don't like the questions that address a particular group and then attack them for something. That's lame.

you're no longer of average weight. Your physique image is faulty. Your weight is heavily under average. besides the shown fact that, that does no longer supply people the suited to unfold rumors approximately you. Is it obtainable that they are asserting those issues via fact they're worried? Do you count selection energy or exercising lots? Are you eating adequate energy to offer your physique the gas it should be healthful? Ask your universal practitioner: what's a healthful weight, eating recurring and exercising plan for somebody my age and top? i'm no longer worried via fact of your weight particularly, yet i'm worried which you notice your self as average weight once you defiantly are no longer. that's distorted physique image and is the 1st sign of an eating affliction.

As long as the questions are valid, and obviously asked out of genuine curiousity, I don't know why anyone would or should be offended.
There have been plenty of question like this that I, as a white woman, have answered anyway.

I think it is sad that people put questions on here and specify a certain group or attack a certain group. There is good in all races and trash in all races --I wish people would see past the color of skin or gender!

Naugh,They have to ask the people that would best know the answer within a particular class of people.

I don't consider myself a racist but have always wondered why there are magazines like Ebony or why there are the Latino awards. There might be incidences where the predominant race is White but I have never seen it advertised this way.

it depends on the question really. when people say: to white people only, why do you suck? it gets kind of annoying. but if the question is like: to men only, i need advice with my girlfriend i don't really care
