I hate racist people...........you?

Question

My dad is really racist he doesn't like when i talk to black people and i told him that he was racist and really cruel and yet he still is bein a a**hole. And i have no problems with black people i even dated 3 black guys but i have n idea what to tell my dad?

Answer 1

Fortunately, my parents understand my interracial relationship. Yet, again it is not with a black person. Not sure if they would understand that either. Personally, I hate the word racist, but I am not a racist. Your all equally worthless to me! JK :)

Answer 2

Join the club! I have a mom that is not racist, but she does not like Somalian people's religion of Islam. I have a lot of Somali friends and I am even married to a Somalian Man, but my mom is always trying to tell me the bad things about the religion and why I should leave him. I let it go in one ear and out the other. There really is nothing that you can say that will change the way that your father is, the more that you try to say anything, the more arguments you will start and eventually you and your dad will be at odds. He will accept you no matter what so go to himand tell him what you CHOOSE to do with your life. If this does not help I am sorry. Good luck!

Answer 3

Woah for a second. Lets not get ahead of the game. Is your father trying to keep you away from losers?? are you sure he dosnt want certain people around who are a bad influence on you?? are you sure your not the racist here?? If you were my daughter and you hung out with slim shady i wouldint want you to date him, cause hes an idiot and rap music is not good for you. America is confused on this subject, I personally dont like rap and I think its evil so people think im racist.Dont get on this crusade about that all black people are good just because your dad dosnt like them.I personally get along with them and live with some here in my building, but what you have to understand is that your dad is trying to protect you.But straight up if a astute educated black man who works and goes to school all the time and dosnt drink smoke or do drugs comes to your door asking to take you out and your dad refuses yah i guess he is prejudice.But be careful if you just say" well dont tell me what to do" And go out with the first blk. dude you see just in rebellion then YOU now are the racist because you are doing it in rebellion to your father and dont even care about the boyfriend. Your just dating him because hes black and not a person now.Just like me Im predjudice against fat ugly women and i dont date them.I prefer gourgeous women and i love asian women. Its stupid im very shallow, the truth is i should accept the person for who they are and not what they look like. So i guess im predjudice my self.

Answer 4

It's SO sad that people have to be SO close minded!! People are people - hearts, bones and brains. Some parts they use more than others - but thats ANOTHER story!! My dad (passed on) HATED anyone that wasn't bald (hated long hair on guys), redneck, drove a truck and treated women like trash. Sad, huh? However he would ROLL in his grave if he knew how many friends I had that DID NOT fit his criteria!! HAHA! I love them and would NEVER judge them in that respect! God is the only one that judges and He does NOT judge by race and creed - THANK YOU!! I just took what my dad would say and never brought my friends anywhere NEAR my house even when I grew up and moved out. My life was MY life. I'm SO sorry you have to deal with that man!!

Answer 5

Your father is an ignorant, bigoted person. He should respect your choices and if he hates that you associate with black people it is his dysfunction. The sad part is, he is going to miss out on so many people that could have come into his life and make a positive impact on him. You can't control the will of others, but you can try to teach them about the importance of accepting and respecting all people regardless of race.

Answer 6

to be honest it probably isnt his fault, when he was born and growing up attitidues to black people were alot different then and he still probably carries these views and because hes known them all his life he believes them as right. alot of people around his age probably feel the same. im not saying hes right because im my own views i think racisim is very wrong. but its just how he sees things though his eyes... and maybe also both his parents were racist and it rubbed off on him.
you could just simply tell him that you dont see the colour just the person. and that they are your friends , that you dont share the same views as him etc.
its a tough one so good luck - sorry i couldnt be more help

Answer 7

Tolerance is key. No one asked you to be friends, live with or socialize with other races, but to go out of your way to write some discusting slur, is just wrong. To all you racist who are responding to this question. Shame on you. It makes me very sad to know that you are so ignorant as to hate people you have never met and hate them for the color of their skin. It makes me sick. I thought we, as a whole had evolved. To the questioner, all you can do is continue to teach tolerance. God Bless~

Answer 8

it is a shame but some people from the past generations cannot let go of the environment they were exposed to.

Rise above it. Raise your children to be tolerant, educated, and understanding; that is the best gift you can give to them and to the world.

hang in there, Your father may never change, but that is not your responsibility.

Answer 9

Personally, I think there is nothing you can do to change your fathers perspective on people of another race. You are obviously your own person and can make your own decisions. So it's your choice to talk, see, date, or be friends with whom ever you want, no matter their ethnic background.

Answer 10

No, I don't hate racist people. Everyone has the right to their opinion and views. Why does everyone want to be so damn politically correct? Can't we hate people as well as like them? Who said we had to like everybody? Why can't we not like a certain group?
