I'm white, I follow hip-hop/rap culture, and dress accordingly, so....?

Question

Does anyone else find 'wigger' to be a stupid term? I won't even get into the fact that it seems to be a contraction of the words white and ni***r. Just because a young white person such as myself is into it, should not make us the target of ridicule, right? It should actually be embraced. Since we are practicing diversity in a way. But no, somebody always has to trash on it. I don't talk in any way other than what comes natural, I don't put on a performance 24/7 to "look" a certain way. I just like rap, and I like urban gear. What's your input? If you wanna check me out, feel free, http://www.myspace.com/jrdubeau

Answer 1

I feel you, W**** is a word no one should use. Mainstreem rappers should be glad the all American kids are listening and buying up S**T or they wouldn't be bling blinging all around town. Everyone could steel someone else's style. The way you look, dress, or act should not automatically classify anyone as a W***** or a N*****.

Answer 2

The fact that you chose to follow a certain genre or style of music or clothing should not put you in any category to get particular ridicule or called any slighting names. It is no different from your choice as well as your right to choose long hair or short. None of those things by show of outward appearances actually makes you the man you are on the inside and that is the only quality which really counts. If you are a man of honor, the actions behind your words do show this. Not the way you may choose to dress, which is very much up to date in style for young men your age today. Tell all those who would prefer to criticize to eat a big one! By using their ignorant terminology they are showing their obviously low IQs and need to be placed in check. I have checked out some of your pictures and your style looks great. Don't let those pudding heads bother you. You do have it going on =)

Answer 3

It's cool. You can like whatever music, clothes you want. Don't be initimidated by anyone.. Just so you know though, the only people that use the term "wigger" are other WHITE people. I've never heard that term within the black community, cause I remember when I was in high school, all the white kids who were haters would say "wigger" all the time to their white counterparts.

Answer 4

I know, its stupid. i wear baggy clothing, listen to rap music, i'm white. so why should we be considered "wiggers" because we wear a diffrent style or enjoy a diffrent genre of music. i'm 12 years old and i find it pretty pathetic..if someone calls us a honkey or wigger its "perfectly fine". but if we make racial comments to latinos or african americans then hell breaks loose. I don't make any racial comments torwards anyone because the way i see it were all human..just like were all gonna have diffrent tastes in music and styles. I'm so glad someone finally spoke up about this, but its just the messed up little world were in. so much racism..i wish we could just all get along and stop hating each other. anyways its perfectly fine, we dream of living that "ghetto lifestyle". i don't see that making me a bad person. I useually ignore the people that make nagitive comments about my style anyways.

Answer 5

the term wigger is specifically deemed to any white person who has to talk one way to their peers and another to their parents... kinda like in Malibu's Most Wanted when the two guys forced B-rad to talk "proper" and he sounded completely different. Just like an "oreo" which is someone who is clearly black but has to switch it up around his neighbor - "hood" friends. don't take offense bro just be aware... and really it doesn't matter what they think of u... they don't buy your clothes or put food in ur mouth so in theory... they don't necessarily count for sh!% that makes ur world go round. good luck!

Answer 6

Nah i think of it fairly is amazingly properly nevertheless alive; each and every of the events and golf equipment right here in NYC are nevertheless blasting with hip hop/rap song. i think of Justin Bieber and One direction, they are generally happening with a youthful age team of ladies. Hip hop/rap has a extra robust fan base imo.

Answer 7

you like what you like, whats the problem with that. youre human right? nah, its cool, you like what you like, and you dress how you wanna dress. ive never heard the word 'wigger' sounds ridiculous to me, sounds like thier trying to say you wear wigs or something. anyway, i dont like that new thing with the skateboards, just because Snoop Dog or wtv rode a skateboard, all these little posers wanna skateboard, when its been around for ages and they used to think it was for gays and white boys. lol sorry, i ranted a bit there lol =/ hoped that answered youre question ( or that my input was helpful =D)

Answer 8

There is this song by Murs called And This Is For. Check it out he talks about it, and says it straight up like it is.

Good music transcends all physical/racial limits.

Answer 9

i love hiphop and im asian.

dont worry about it.screw what ppl say.
