They seem to think they can suddenly understand thousands of years of another culture just because they happen to date a black/asian/latina girl a few times. Then when they do something (i.e. make a off-color remark based on his own racist perceptions) his retort is: i'm not racist, my girlfriend is: (insert race here)...

Yeah I agree. I hate how they always have to mention, my ASIAN girlfriend...my BLACK friend..or whatever. Some sort of inferiority complex.

I am white and my husband is Middle Eastern. You cannot generalize like that. First of all, the Middle East is made up of several countries with different cultures. Within those different cultures are different people. Just because someone came from a certain place does not mean that they are sexist. Also...did you ever think that maybe some of those "sexist" Middle Eastern men might have come to America to get away from the parts of their culture that they disagree with? My husband loves that I have a mind of my own and am not afraid to argue with him and tell him he is wrong. I go to school full time, I work full time during the summer (part time during school), I hang out with my friends, I go out to bars, I am not having kids until I'm ready....Middle Eastern men as a whole are not controlling and sexist. Stop looking at the extremists, they do not define the culture.

Racism is a natural manifestation of the human mind. My father is from Spain and my mother is from Mexico. To this day when they get into it I hear derogatory remarks made about each others ethnic backround. (My sisters and I find it hilarious) Do they hate each other? NO! They have been married over 30 years and are still deeply in love. Sounds like you are just being over sensitive.

Why do you think all white men are racist?
