how do u act white?? how do u act black?? there aint a certain way that white ppl act or that black ppl act its just that most white ppl are portrayed as stuck up people and black people are portrayed as ghetto ppl who dont give a fck and its not like that. we are characterized or put into certain groups just because of the color of our skin so if ur not acting like your "race or skin color" is "supposed to act" then ur acting a "different race or color" cuz last i checked whites are caucasian and blacks are african american so how da hell?

Listen, I'm half Black and Japanese and I go through the same mess everyday at work now. I have a high position for my age and the youngest in my position. Everyone says I act white because of where I live and how I live. My family isn't rich nor poor but since my mother is a doctor that makes me rich I suppose and that means I was wealthy when I was younger and went to Private paid schooling. Don't listen to people they are either jealous about what you have or how you act. You will only get along in this world if you have the smarts to get through, It does matter upon what race you act.

There is no such thing as acting black or white, people are just so stereotypical these days. It's just how they be live the world should be. Don't listen to them, and don't try to change your personality to act "black". Why can't people just see that everyone in this world are just regular people???

No, you are who you want to be. If your friend can't accept that than what kind of friend is he? A pretty bad one if you ask me. There is no such thing as acting black or white no matter what anyone says. You decide who and what you want to be and how you act. No one else can do that for you.

Yeah, I've had friends call people that, but they said they were "whited-out". I know you've seen Malibu's Most Wanted- that is kinda an example, but to the extreme!!!! But as long as you're happy, be you. Don't listen to them people, cuz in reality we all act the same, just small differences.
