I've never read any of your post before therefor I can not say if I see you as a hypocrite or not. But if I came across a thread in which you were speaking of some "pro Black" stuff I wouldn't take you seriously at all. Do I find it jarring? No. Disrespectful? A bit. This is after all a Black site. I'll say I probaly agree with most of the negative things said about you in regards to who you settled on.
In the end we are both Black but your not my kind of Black.

She ASKED for opinons and she got 'em.

If you have a problem with that, maybe you shouldn't read this thread. . .


Nobody makes you read my posts, Fab.

If you have a problem with me giving my opinion, them maybe you should put me on ignore.

This ain't about ME. . .

and you weren't just giving your opinion, you were trying to blast a BLACK MAN for his, and THAT I 'do' have a problem with, WB.

His opinion is MORE valid than yours will ever be (in this case). . .cuz THIS is a BLACK BOARD and we're talking about BLACK PEOPLE. . .

If you don't like what HE (Wiz) has to say, I suggest YOU take your own damn advice and put his posts on ignore.

It's UNNATURAL for a white man (you) to come on a black message board (again you) and blast a black man for his reaction to an interracial relationship. . . Eek

you're absolutely wrong (for getting nasty with him) and I will 'point out' this type of thing to your trifling self, EVERYTIME you step outta line (or everytime I see it).

The black person who started this thread 'asked for' OPINIONS & thoughts. . .

Wiz is just as entitled to HIS opinion & perspective as anyone else. . .

who are YOU to tell him he's wrong and that the pic is not an affront to him???? Seems to me you're having the typical white folk reaction. . .

always trying to tell BLACK PEOPLE what they should 'think' and how they
should 'react'...

White b@y, please. Mad

Now I just gave MY OPINION. . .feel free to ignore me, but I will continue to respond to posts of yours that I take offense to (like this one). . .

You'll be happy to know, though, 'usually' I don't bother reading your posts, cuz I find you BORING as hell and your avatar (displaying your fat beer belly) hurts my eyes.

Yes, Fab. It is all about you.

More specifically, it is about your deep seated psychological need to inject drama into this thread with your silly "let's you and him fight" antics.

Nobody is making you watch anything. As far as I know, she doesn't have a webcam set up in her bedroom.

The picture is not an affront to anybody. It is just a pic of her and her boyfriend. No different than what you would see if they were walking down the street.

Hell, I've had several pics of my wife and I at various times as either avatars or in my sigfile in a number of internet forums, inluding this one, and probably will again, once I get tired of this silly roadrunner cartoon. It's really no big deal.


It is metaphorical sort of, she is making us watch with that picture. If it were not here and she never said anything, no one here would know anything about who she was dating or even if she was dating. She is making us watch and that shit ain't cute.

I could understand you posting, you have a sorta black woman (I think you referred to her in the not-black sense of Columbaniana or something) At any rate were it not for her, would you be here? So she is more or less your link to this site, well that and the math thing, but for her to not simply post a pic of her and him, but to use it in every post she makes us watch.

Even this thread Me and My Mexican brings even more attention to her and him, as though there were already not enough.


I say the picture is an affront. You say it is not. WHile it may not be an affront to you, it is to me, so then it is an affront. So are you going to tell me again it is not?

She is not "sorta black", she is black. Afrocolombiana. She was born and raised in a virtually all black region of Cauca until her early teens when she and her family moved to Valle under less than desirable circumstances. I have never referred to her as non-black. (And if I did, I had better not let her find out!)

I probably would still be here (except in the rather trivial sense that I might never have stumbled across this particular forum in my random walk through the internet). My link here is not my wife. Indeed, her general opinion is that computers, and in particular the internet, is a huge waste of time. (I'm not sure that she is wrong!) My link here is Lofton, who invited me (and everybody else who he could find!) here from another forum that I had just been invited to a couple of weeks earlier. I haven't posted at that other forum in years, but still post here.

The whole purpose of an avatar is a visual representation of the poster. That visual representation may be abstract, or it may be very concrete. I have used both. Currently, I am using a previously unknown species of hummingbirds reciently discovered in Colombia. Pretty abstract. At other times I have used a picture of my wife and I. I don't see anything particularly unusual about that. Certainly more on the concrete side.

Certainly, this thread is indeed bringing attention to her relationship with her boyfriend, and soliciting comments on her avatar. But that is a different matter than the use of the avatar itself.

And everybody participating in this thread actually made a concious decision to click on a thread with the title "Me and My Mexican". I doubt that they are shocked...just shocked...

I had to actually look up the definition of the word "affront" on dictionary.com, to see whether the word reflects the mental state of the "affronter" or the "afrontee". It seems to be the former.
quote:

af·front /əˈfrʌnt/
–noun
1. a personally offensive act or word; deliberate act or display of disrespect; intentional slight; insult: an affront to the king.
2. an offense to one's dignity or self-respect.
–verb (used with object)
3. to offend by an open manifestation of disrespect or insolence: His speech affronted all of us.
4. to make ashamed or confused; embarrass.
5. Archaic. to front; face; look on.
6. Obsolete. to meet or encounter face to face; confront


I don't see how it really fits either definition (1) or (2), which are the definitions of usage given there as a noun.

It is certainly a fact that others might be offended by the sight of an avatar, or even by the sight of an interracial couple or a same sex couple walking hand in hand down the street. But I'm not sure how any of these qualify as an "affront", at least under either of the two meanings listed at dictionary.com.

These are all of the same women who bashed men for interracial dating.

What a freakin' double standard.

SistahSoulja,

Yes you are a hypocrite; but no more than the women who are responding to your discussion. As far as I'm concerned 95% of the women who frequent this board are hypocrites when it comes to interracial dating.

The way I see it. At least the guys are honest.


THAT TYPE OF HONESTY IS BELOW MY PAYGRADE.

And HB,

You ought to be ashamed of yourself... all of the male bashing you've been doing. I just knew you were going to exercise that same vigilant anti-interracial business here.

Ha!

Yeah right.

ricardomath, your wife is definitely a descendant of an enslaved African, and even in america, but she is not black. Black people do not have access to terms like Cauca or Columbiana, and (this is a joke) black people do not wear white socks with sandals, even if they have feet like monkey hands.


Here is the black test.

Q- Are you black?
A- Yes.

No qualifications about Indians or French or Columbia or Haiti. Just yes, plain and simple.

We do make exceptions for Barack Obama, only because he, like Tiger Woods (who ain't black) had choices and unlike Tiger, said Black.

The wonderful thing about being black is that we are not all that discriminating. You could be black if you wanted to (well after renouncing, attending a few marches, and learn how to dance. It may not look like it, but we do have standards) And you have to accept being called white all the time, as in: "Hey there go white ricky."

It is not the worse thing, the other day my son told me that white Devon moved in next door. Devon is not really white, he is mixed (but not very well) and my son calling anyone white is a trip, but he can call Devon white.
'
I have also known numerous white mikes, and I still know a white eric., but I digress.


The thing is that her mexican is not a nigga. Now I know some mexicans that is niggas, but he aint one of them. So her putting that mofo in our face is bullshit. For all we know, she might just wanted some babies with good hair.

Confused

Do they have access to terms like Iowa and Iowan?

You might try asking her if that is the case. It would seem a more reliable method than assuming.

Ricardoazz, 'IF' I had one you could suck my dyck. You have a lot of nerve injecting your drama here by suggesting (to a black man) what HIS reality is.

You say shyt to black folk and expect NO ONE to respond, it's supposed to be 'cool' cause it's you, the authority on black folk.

white b@y, please.

If you don't like my so-call 'antics' too focking bad, eat shyt and die....

how 'bout that?

Cause I can't STAND your white azz, more specifically, you think you're an authority on black people simply because you married a black woman (who wasn't even born here).

We ain't ALL the same, or don't you know that?

So while you call yourself analyzing me, analyze WHY you don't DO something about your UNHEALTHY fat beer gut.

This, with maybe one exception, would have to qualify as the dumbest thing I've heard this year. tfro

You can post a THOUSAND pictures of your black wife, but that STILL doesn't entitle you to MINIMIZE ANY black man's experience or perspective.
