not "ghetto", but the real hood?

Actually, yes.
I get pissed when people say they're from the ghetto, and there's friggin gates around the trees there. Chalk on the street is not graffiti.

Ghetto Asians rock! It sucks that you get discriminated though. If it makes you feel any better, I'm a black girl who did not grow up in the ghetto, and in that way I cannot really relate to other blacks. We grew up differently, and I go to a private school. Most of my friends are white.

No I grew up in the suburbs and not really anything like the hood , it's been awhile , back then we just used our fists and either won or took a whipping , no guns , knives or clubs , gangs etc. . It's much more dangerous to add weapons to the mix so I consider myself lucky to not have had to deal with that .

probly not ... but grew up as military brat back when miltary didn't get much pay, tho it wouldn't qualify as 'hood'.
I've been *in* the hood a few times ... and even there was waaaay more lux than 3-rd world hood overseas
no powerlines, no plumbing, no utilities ...waaay different

No, but I spent years 8-15 in low income apartments in a small southern Missouri town. I know of food stamp coupons, wearing old cloths and evictions.

No.
I grew up as a little rich girl in alot of ways...
My dad grew up hood in East L.A., so he always bought homes in extra good neighborhoods-- but then we didn't fit in because we didn't have any more money for the clothes, cars, ect... Oh well.
It made me appreciate who is "real" now.

Nope. And proud of it. :) Although I guess it really was just luck of the draw. No one can be blamed for the situation they were born into and can do nothing about.

No....I lived about 36 places before I left home, none of which was any kind of 'hood'...none of which also is worth recanting.
