Stereotyping your own race

[Hellion]

Just wondering,have you ever called your own race racial names.

Considering there is no law against it.

Blacks have called each other the n-word

whites call each other cracker,whitey,white trash.

In the news they portray black people with crime and blight.

and in suburbia,when it comes to crime,they portray white people as molesters,serial killers.

Then again I don't watch the news anymore since its nothing but negative bs.

I could care less if anyone calls me a cracker,whatever.

your

opinions

on this

You. Have. No. Idea.

We Hispanics have sooooooooooo many insults for our own...unfortunately, most of the best ones are in Spanish - and I don't speak it. At all.

Damn Honkeys. Fucking Frogs.

Um... Not really.

If I am a cracker,then it might as well be a Ritz Cracker,btw there is a band called Cracker,OFF TOPIC)

yes some of us may be guilty of it.

That is hilarious.

Actually, for us hawaiians-types, there is only one word for the ethnicity: kanaka. As far as I know, it is not disparaging. Though the word for anyone not hawaiian haole, can and usually is. Again, as far as I know, those are the only two distinctions: us or them.

i actually dont call anyone anything...dude

one time i asked a black kid in my art class why he always used that word

and he got offended..."its like white peoples dude" then i asked...."why not just use the word dude then?" and he was sooo mad at me ......i was sad.

this is one of the few countries in the world where most ppl don't get along.

free speach huh?

I think those of the asian pacific skull shape have the capacity for more inteligence and better attention span.

I think those of the negroid skull shape are physicaly stronger.

i think those of the caucasian skull shape are distintly more cunning/ evil/creative.

of course these are just archaic stereotypes that i seek to overcome within myself.

as far as getting pissed about what other people say, to me it matters mostly in the way the word is used or the context it was used in. I know that if I yell at my dog it doesn't know if I called him a bannana or a peice of shit it just knows it's getting yelled at. I like to be cosiderate and respectfull of others to a point. that point is when they have no respect for me.

oh we would call people stuff just for shock value, usually friends in inner circles. unless there was alot of alchahol involved.

it would be common to here " you DumB Bitch" or if some one had no job they would here" Your a worthless Ni$#@".

kind of played out catch phrases now.

AH the good old day's. I can still remember when some one would walk into the party and ten dudes would be chanting at you "worthless ni$#@, WORTHLES NI$#@ wORTHLESS NI$#@" . half of them would be black but color didn't matter. and then you would be forced into a keg stand.

so i don't know how to count that guess you just half to appreciate it for the shock value as it was intended.

I take it upon myself to make fun of my race, creed, and stereotypical idiosyncrasies-- otherwise, someone who is ignorant about real rednecks and hillbillies will be first to do so.

Only a true southerner can capture the subtle comedic nuances of white trash succinctly.

I don't like the word "race"...it is out dated & shitty...I call DM cracker all the time...it's like his OTHER-OTHER nickname...

Ethnic slurs are fun for freinds to use IN FUN...like my freind Chaim, he's a Hasidic Cohan...so he walks into the bar...I'm like to the bartender, "Get the Heb a drink".. & he's like, "Ya, & make sure this Gypsy pays you right away...no tabs for them, eh".. & we all laugh...if ANYONE said some shit like that with out a stout hug behind it, BETTER RUN.

...I did not know your Latino...I thought you were "light-skinded"....see why I think "race" & "ethnic shit" are so stupid...

[Oh_My_Goth]

I'm German.....

That is all.

One german is a philosopher , two germans are a beer pub , three germans are a heavy industry , four germans are a world war , five germans are atrocity.

The best instruction of stereotyping and using disparaging slang regarding one's ethnicity (or anyone else's,) came from a briefing I received in the first 8 weeks of my military career:

DON'T. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE. period.

[Slogo]

Actually I once joked about two of my races (there are many).

I told people I was going to open an Irish bar with cooking I learned from my Mom and Grandfather.

The name I came up with...

McDago's

And yes I am Italian and Irish
