what color r u really??

Question

why do white people try to act and talk like they are black?? do they not like their own race or are they just trying to fit in??

Answer 1

i hate that to they are just trying to fit in i believe

Answer 2

the truth, ms. stephanie, is that America ( I assume we're speaking of it?) has almost NO people that are just BLACK or just WHITE. Most people that are 'black' or 'white' have had some one from some alien ethnicity screw up the gene pool somewhere down the line. And besides? What is white and what is black anyways? I have a friend that is black, and her kid told her that her best friend isn't white, she's just a lighter shade of brown!

Isn't it the truth?

And another thing? why are we STILL calling mobs of people 'the blacks' or 'the mexicans' or 'the whites'?? Jesus Christ segregation ended how long ago? 50-60 years ago now. Get the hell over it. I am so tired of black people whining about how they don't have the same rights or w/e bullcrap. YES YOU DO GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR @$$ and realize that you DO have the same rights as whites, and even more! Whites can't call blacks by certain names, but hell, blacks can call whites w/e the hell they want. Fair? No. But I'll deal.

So to answer your question, who gives a bird crap about how people talk? It's not your place to discriminate, or discern the way a black person converses from a white person. Besides, you prolly aren't completely one race anyways unless your a first gen immigrant, and even if you were that, you wouldn't barely be talking english anyway; at least not slanged-conversational english!!

Answer 3

here it goes...

what is talking white i said to my friend the other day, if you say white people talk proper then how do black people talk i said he was calling his own race stupid since most of the time i guess i don't fit in because i talk proper but not white i just don't understand why black people are always stereotyped as having a rough life like lack of education which i think that this falls under how about for the black people who talk "white" i don't want to be called white because I'm not...and i think its shameful that people say that i talk white there is no such thing.. but everyone knows what it means i personally think..

but white people who talk ignorant sound straight up dumb assed to me and needs to stop because they are disgracing themselves and yes i do believe it's to fit in because if you notice they suck up to the gangsters and call there own race crackers it truly pisses me off. so yes to fit in i believe but they are followers i also input.

Answer 4

I wouldn't say that they're trying to fit in, seeing as black people in America are a minority. There are a lot of them, but still a minority. I think "white people" act like they're black because black people are so different, and they have such a different,rich culture, that the white people want to imitate them.

Answer 5

I'm white, like REALLY white. I wish I could tan a bit!! It's sad really, you don't get many black guys trying to be white. I think a lot of black guys do the 'cool' thing well and that makes young, white, zero-identity-of-their-own men want to be like that. They can't really see that they just look less cool instead of more cool!

Answer 6

Because they can.
Don't judge people.
They are just being themselves, theres no way well ther isnt a certin way to talk ight?
I talk black sometimes I live in the "ghetto", but I dress goth, and do what I want and role with my own crew hun.
I dont want to be black, I know I am white and proud.
Get the facts straight, ok?

Answer 7

It's culture. That's rasict to say 'act black' or 'act white'. Some people listen to rap, regardless of their race, so they will wear urban clothing, use slang because its a big part of the music & drive cars with rims & whatever else... Because thats the culture honey....


Just like people who listen to Country like trucks & cowboy hats...

And Classic rock listeners have big hair!!!

LOL. It's all stereotypes my dear!!

Answer 8

How you act or talk doesn't define your race. I do understand what you're saying though and I think people should just act the way they are and not try to conform to someone else's standards.

Answer 9

White people don't talk like they're "black." People are a product of their environment and trying to say that certain maneurisms are owned by any given race is just ignorant.

Answer 10

Im white but i dont act black around my black friends i act myself

Answer 11

I am white and whats wrong with talk like that I didn't know that language have a color
