If you know anything about the culture you would know it is offensive.

That's one of those subjective offense things that I just ignore. LOL.
If it makes you feel better, though, I would never flatter you so much as to assume you are/call you a Rasta. I have way too much respect for Rastafarianism.

yeah do that...so do I.
I am not a Rasta and it's not flattering to assume that I follow the religion as to address me as one.

And for the third time I ask, and more specifically, why is the term Rasta offensive to you?

No, and nobody has ever called me one. And if they did, I wouldn't be offended, I'd just explain it and leave it at that.

That's like ASS-uming that each and every person that has locks are from the West Indies when in reality they span as far reaching and far back as Indian sikhs and Khemet.
Read up on your hair man...
But fine...we are done here...if you feel like you need a further explanation, feel free to contact me directly.
