There is no truth to this rumor. Some black men may not do it or may not like to do it, but most of my friends do. It’s the same with my white friends – some like it, some don’t. It has nothing to do with race; it’s just personal choice.

It’s much more shocking to them when they see someone who is white and supposedly above doing something that brutal especially if they aren’t ‘poor white trash’. Plus they know they will get ratings from minority viewers if they run these stories as long as they can.

He may be afraid to tell you he wants the same thing. One of the reasons men cheat in relationships is that they are afraid to experiment with their wives and girlfriends, so they go out and find some girl they don’t really care as much about and do tings with her that they think they can’t do with their wives. If you don’t assert yourself, you will be frustrated and begin to resent the relationship. Also, if you don’t say anything, you can’t complain when he doesn’t please you.

Porn is make believe and appeals to peoples fantazys not reality. For Instance while most people wouldn’t want to be tied up and raped in real life, they might actually have a dream or fantazy where something like that happens. Pornagraphy plays on that and it’s certainly going to be the least place to find political correctness

Many people think that African Americans aren’t patriotic because we complain about the wrong doings and racism in america but i think that it is because i am patriotic and do see the procress and potential of this country to be the greatest country in the world that i do complain. I feel like thats the way that we improve and work to be a better society.

In asian countries people who are poor are at the bottom of society and looked down on, and they perceive blacks as on the bottom. Many of the older asians come to this country with that attitude and will display even moreso that whites who have lived in this country forever.

Also living in the ‘hood’ may not be as traumatic for someone who has grown up there and lived there for all their lives like it might be for you.

Personally I think that it has to do with the fact that most African Americans aren’t exposed to that kind of music as they are growing up. We Identify with Hip Hop Because it comes directly from R&B rythms and talks primarily about the black community. Plus many african americans like a beat that they can dance too. and heavy metal really doesn’t provide that kind of beat.

If sharks do follow the same routes it prabably has more to do with their natural migration parterns just like birds who fly south for the winter.

Mister BO Jangles was responisble most of the moves that Fred Astaire and many others like him used. other dance forms like the Tango were developed at a time when blacks weren’t allowed into the dance studios to learn them. Now im not saying that blacks are superior but dancing and singing and making jokes have always been the way for blacks to cope with the harsh realities of life it was a coping mechanism that allowed us to deal with slavery and racism. the harder life got, the more blacks used dance and music and comedy to deal with life and we still use these gifts today.

The only thing that we can do is try to recognize that we aren’t perfect, try our best to rise above our petty prejudices and try to see each other as people. Remember that everyone is an individual and can’t be lumped into categories.

Whites do not have a monopoly on hatred or intolerance, but if that offends you, at least you can get a small feeling of the racism that minorities have had to suffer over the years.
