Would you be less offended if he lied?

Think about the intercultural aspects of interracial relationships -- it doesn't always apply but it often does. Statements such as "White girls are trouble" reflect the attitudes of a culture. Remember the thread where we couldn't even agree on the meaning of the term "racism"?

(do a search for a thread called prejudism if not)


Its lik I said before, I know what he's trying to say. I just dont like the way he said it. It's like I were to say something like, "I can bring a white guys home if they get rid of their southern accents, stop wear abercrombie (which I love btw) and start dressing somewhat like decent black guys by wearing structure. Oh and they need to leave their skateboard and surfboards out of the conversation with my parents"

One doesnt have to date outside his race. It doesnt make you racist if you dont. But the least you could do is have some respect for other people.
