I think what ChaosDST was trying to say that there are blacks and other minorities that join "WGLOs" because they relate to white people better than their "own culture", perhaps because they were not raised around "their own". Like me.
THEN...
They're are blacks and other minorities who PURPOSELY choose to be with GLOs outside their race, regardless if they relate to white people better or not, just for the sake of being in a "WGLO". THESE PEOPLE ARE CALLED "SELLOUTS".

well, if you're going to make fun of someone for being dumb, at least use quotes correctly, and only post a message once.

I do, my dad talks about race relations all the time....He couldn't understand for the life of him why I joined a NPC sorority instead of a NPHC sorority, last year.

the use of the "smiley face" to hide sarcasm...

Uh...you don't want to take this thread to the next level...let's stick with the initial topic. To satisfy your "curiosity," re-read my post (that you quoted but apparently didn't read carefully) and THINK about what I typed...your question is null and void.

you do what? you do not know ME or my reasons behind what I've said. I can't speak on your father or what HE feels. Like I said, if you wish for CLARITY, ask for it. We can't began to have intellectualy discussion if you don't fully understand.

you're a very rude person, elitist in the sense that your opinion is the only one that is worth hearing. Is the satisfaction of reading your own words as great as listening to yourself talk?

Try connecting this to the original topic. For the record, I NEVER called anyone dumb...so those who took it that way suffer from paranoia. Topics such as these go bad because folks are so quick to jump on the sarcasm bandwagon as opposed to TRULY listening (or reading) others' viewpoints. I stated some unpopular viewpoints (apparently). However, instead of being sarcastic and combative in your replies...let's try another route.

Congratulations Memberfriend!
You have made it into the 'elitist' circle!
That means you basically disagree with SigmaChiCard, a dubious distinction I know since just about everyone on our forums disagrees with most of what he's said, but hey....
LMP&GAO,

There are a subgroup of blacks, a pretty big one, who thinks like my dad. The things I read from some black GCers are very similar to what my dad "preaches".
And, yes, I do ask for CLARITY.
