Topic: Racism IS still alive and kicking | |
---|---|
Don't want to rattle anyone's cage here, but I will say this;I was under
the impression that anyone who is a member of the "Just Say Hi" community was of a different ilk than other dating /chat sites. Imagine my surprise to discover that you have to be the same colour as the person you say "Hi" to ( this "gentleman" knows who he is) and is lucky that I know when to reward ignorance with disdain and disregard insults coming form small minded people. Having been a member for a very short time, I am touched by the response I have recieved from some highly intelligent people and was made to feel very much at home. If anyone has a beef with the colour of my skin ( no name mentioned) then take it up with my parents, they infomed me that I was a part of a very structured society called " THE HUMAN RACE." So, THANK YOU, (you know who you are) for pointing out to me that you are white and I am black so "it isn't going to work." It does no harm to say "hi" your "white" status will remain intact despite speaking to "one of them".I feel that I have done my bit for interracial communications.................I gave birth to 2 beautiful bi - racial children!. Don't use this site to fuel your hatered for others, be it black,white or the indifferent. Grow up !!! |

Bonny...
So sorry that you came across this person. There is prejudice all around us and I'm happy to say that I am NOT one of them. I would just chalk it up as ignorance and try to get beyond it. -Joanne |

I wish I could say "what a jerk off racists suck!" but I think I'm
becoming one, and that scares me O_O |

Bonny..I know how you feel..I've gotten that type of attitude from
several men before myself..which is why I now do not take the first step in contacting anymore..you would think that in the year 2007 that people would see JUST PEOPLE and not what makes us different..Well maybe one day before they miss out on TOO many good people they will pull their heads out of their rear ends!..oh and by the way..Welcome to the site Bonny |

I have had the same thing happen to me, and I am not black. I was dissed
by a black man because of my race. It is not something defined by certain races; it is all over. |

TO HEAR OF THIS IGNORANCE AND DOWN RIGHT HATEFUL NATURE OF THESE PEOPLE...... TO YOU I AM ALSO SORRY....LADYOFMAGIC WE ALL CAME FROM THE SAME BREATH OF LIFE...WE ALL HAVE THE SAME MOTHER AND FATHER.....I DONT CARE THAT YOU GUYS ARE BLACK ....YOU ARE MY SISTERS!!!! AND TO THE PEOPLE THAT WANT TO BE HATERS ....HATE ON YOURSELF BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO KNOW THESE WOMEN!!!!! |

But as Lily has stated some folks dont date outside their race..why is
it racism..I'd call it a preference and move on.I mean jeesh one nameless white guy you never met caused all this fervor??I dont date women ,am I a homophobe?? |
|
|
|
Cutelildevilsmom, it isn't the fact that this guy does not date outside
of his race, this is his choice. There are other ways of making a statement without him dragging his mentality into the gutter, he could have stated distance as a barrier, but I did not ask for a date, I said hi, all he had to do was respond or ignore it. I was not asking for a date or for him to father my babies................ |
