why cant white people joke about other races but other races can joke about the white race?

Question

like blacks can joke oh that white guy dancing, they call eachothers the n word and dont yell at each other for it... there are many more examples that is only one that is on my mind right now

Answer 1

what makes u think like that? lolol thanx for da points

Answer 2

Get over it whitey. As if those racial jokes really bother you. So what if you can't dance, you own the freakin club. Do you really care if someone calls you a honkey? Really, does it make you feel bad about being your race? I don't even know what honkey means.

Stop whining, you are at the top of everything, your people are in every frame of the television, you don't get pulled over by the cops for nothing. You don't feel inadequate because you aren't a white blonde. You are the majority and have the upper hand so what the heck does it matter when someone makes a joke about you? What is there to joke about when you are on the top of everything?

Answer 3

Pretty much for the same reason that Irish Americans can make jokes about the Irish but I'll pound you into the ground if you do it.

Gotta run -- have to beat up some priests in Indiana who call their team The Fighting Irish.

BTW -- no black man has ever made fun of my dancing. Perhaps the white guy deserved it.

Answer 4

Oh you can. Where I work there is 1 mexican, 2 blacks, 2 whites, and 1 middle easterner. We all have a sense of humor about eachother's jokes. The trick is not to pretend you don't realize there's a difference. It's one thing not to be racist, but come one we know there's differences in ourselves. All blacks believe Tupac is coming back, The whites are sure Elvis is alive (and aliens are taking over), the mexicans hate snow and Taco Bell, and the mid. easterner is only working here until he can open up his own gas station.

Answer 5

i imagine that's extremely easy, from an evolutionary attitude. Cooperative societies have a more beneficial probability for survival than non coorperative societies. for this reason, those who draw strains of seperation in protecting with race, creed, sexuality, or the different variety of benign elements are surely hurting the survivability of the human race as an complete. Racist human beings ought to in easy terms be a a lot less proper set of genes that society ought to stress out of life with a view to make us more beneficial in tremendous condition for survival on the whole.

Answer 6

a hugs majority of white people have never experienced oppression. they have however been oppressors for the sake of taking control of something. various ethnic groups , for the sake of survival had to create something to laugh at so they won';t feel the pain as much. many slaves were sold with that as a reference instead of their own name. if a white person call you the "n" word, your subliminal instincts should kick in. Hello... it's not because they think you're cool. but i guess sometimes they try a little too hard to understand and they never will.

Answer 7

ive always wondered why it was ok for a black person to call a white person cracker, or white bread, or white trash, but it wasnt ok to call them anything.

if a white person called a black guy the n word, they would be in major trouble. i have a friend who told another friend who was wearing a doo rag that she looked like aunt jemima. that friend got called to the office and was reprimanded for it. but considering that right before she told the girl that she looked like aunt jemima, the black girl had called her white bread.

for some odd reason, i dont think that was very fair. the white girl didnt mean anything by it, only that she looked like the aunt jemima on the syrup bottle. and she had just been called white bread, so i dont think that the white girl got an even shake on that.

the black girl didnt get reprimanded for calling the white girl white bread, so where is the justice on that one.

Answer 8

Racism is racism no matter who's making the jokes, and when others make "white jokes", they should have to attend a sensitivity training course just like a white would have to do for making jokes about minorities.

Answer 9

Whites feeling inferior when others make fun. We therefor ignore it (most of us). People only get up tight when they to some degree believe what is being said about them. I do not like it when someone points to me being sloppy. I do not take much offense if someone remarks negatively about how I look cuz I know I am a hansom guy so who cares what the jealous person says.

Answer 10

Nowadays it seems black people can joke about all other races but when white people or asian people joke about them it's racism. I've actually studied many people's behavior and sadly what I said is actually true.

Answer 11

Double standard
