I fill out forms as Black or African American (depending on the form). I really don't pay attention to the terms at all, I am not offended by either. But I do agree with Ideal08 in that I would prefer people to be real with me and not Politically Correct! And I am not sure who would be calling me either black or African American anyway, If someone is saying LadyAKA is black, I must not be in their presence, so why do I care what they call me. I could tell them I prefer one or the other and they would just get it wrong anyway. I just prefer people to approach me and call me by my rightful name.
