good example of female rationalization

[Phyzzle]

well 95% of the world has racist cultures then.

Yes, I agree. As cultures don't tend to spring up very quickly, they are going to have major aspects of institutionalized racism that could take a long time to uproot.

In the U.S., and in Canada and Europe, interracial relationships involving a minority man and a white woman, often meant jail time or a de-facto death sentence a hundred years ago. Times change. People don't worry so much about color, or at least start to mind their own business around those who don't.

and that is the difference between here and there


edit: when I first made the comment, I thought Joeker said he could call someone at woRk an oriental and they would think he has a bad sense of humour. but for the most part, he really wouldn't get into much trouble because in Canada were trained to be more passive, so it would slide because the Asian, would take it for what it was and not get all worked up bout racism unless he's made other comments that were derogatory.

That's the way it is here too basically except when a white male says something toward a black person or a female. Then he's automatically racist! And being whit and considered racist is one step away from being as bad as considered a sexual predatory in the hiearchy of being a bad guy .

 

[joekerr31]

ok ok, if i called someone a wok i'd get in trouble. they'd give me a dirty look. heck, if i saw someone call someone a wok i'd step up and call them an *ss. so i was exaggerating a bit.

but no one would be offended by the term oriental. and yes Asian is the proper term.

But not believing in interracial marriage does NOT necessarily make you a racist. Kinda dumb, but not racist. (Three of my absolutely GORGEOUS nieces who I ADORE are half latino, btw)

How do you not believe in interracial marriages?

Lol. They are a reality! Does that mean your nieces who you adore don't exist? Or were they born out of wedlock?

Aren't you the same guy in love with some foreign chick??

 

[Phyzzle]

^^Outta context there, Iqqi. No one here really minds interracial marriages. Everybody is talking about some guy X and why his disapproval of Y does or does not make him Z. Clear?

That doesn't matter Phyzzle, she had to get in her "I must pick on STR8UP post QUOTA for the day"

 

[iqqi]

I thought he was saying it about himself personally.

?

I am not picking on STR8UP.

 

[iqqi]

Soon noone will be able to deny or not believe in interracial whatevers, as our next president is going to be a biracial man!









I just realized I just made this thread political now.

 

[STR8UP]

Huh?

 

[iqqi]

Huh?

This lovely dame.

If she is russian, turkish, or armenian, and you aren't, then she is a different race than you.

Man you really are boneheaded. Your confusing ethnicity with race. All those examples you gave were caucasian. In order for someone to be consider a different race there has to be sufficient differences. There's generally considered on;y 3 distinct races:Caucasiod, Mongloid and Nigeriod.

The term race refers to the concept of dividing people into populations or groups on the basis of various sets of characteristics and beliefs about common ancestry.[1] The most widely used human racial categories are based on visible traits (especially skin color, cranial or facial features and hair texture), and self-identification.[1] [2]

Conceptions of race, as well as specific ways of grouping races, vary by culture and over time, and are often controversial for scientific as well as social and political reasons. The controversy ultimately revolves around whether or not races are natural types or socially constructed, and the degree to which observed differences in ability and achievement, categorized on the basis of race, are a product of inherited (i.e. genetic) traits or environmental, social and cultural factors.​

Race and ethnicity in the United States Census, as defined by the United States Census Bureau and the Federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB), are self-identification data items, in which residents choose the race or races with which they most closely identify, and indicate whether or not they are of Hispanic or Latino origin (ethnicity).[1][2]

The racial categories represent a social-political construct designed for the race or races they consider themselves to be and "generally reflect a social definition of race recognized in this country".[3] OMB defines the concept of race as outlined for the US Census as not "scientific or anthropological", and takes into account "social and cultural characteristics as well as ancestry", using "appropriate scientific methodologies", but not "primarily biological or genetic in reference".[4]

Race and ethnicity were considered separate and distinct identities, with Hispanic origin asked as a separate question. Thus, in addition to their race or races, all respondents are categorized by membership in one of two ethnicities: Hispanic or Latino, and Not Hispanic or Latino. In 1997, OMB issued a Federal Register Notice titled "Revisions to the Standards for the Classification of Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity", which provided new racial and ethnic definitions.[5]​

She would most likely be considered middle eastern. If she is turkish or armenian.

Every turkish and armenian I know does not consider themselves to be white.

And they tend to be racist against whites.

Anyways, what is the difference. How could you be for mixing ethnicities, but not races? What is the difference? Besides.... dum dum dum.... the color of your skin???

Middle-eastern isn't a race, they're consider caucasians, just like jews. neither is white consider a race.

Well is there something wrong with not being attracted to other's who are too dark or too pale? I think one problem some people might have with inter-racial mixing is it's creating an unequal numbers mis-match question: if for example a white female and a black male pair, is the "excess" white male going to pair with the "excess" black female?

 

[iqqi]

haha, so the TRUTH comes out! You fear what you don't know... what you have heard... :yes:

you fear you cannot compete!

Haha. I will let someone else handle this one, if they want.

First of all, I'm not in love with ANYONE.

Secondly, I have dated asians, latinas, middle eastern, you name it. I LOVE exotic women.
