What the hell? I just called my girlfriend & when she picked up I heard some giggling and instead of âhiâ, she answered, âI was just telling this girl here that you are the only white boy that Iâve datedâ. And I swear it sounded like it was degrading. The girl who she was talking about was Asian & said, âOh, is that the Italian one?â And when my girlfriend said, ânoâ, the other girl sounded repulsed. Now, I know some people may not agree but when someone says they are Italian I bunch them into the âwhiteâ category. I said that to my girlfriend and she said, âNo, thatâs Europeanâ. Nevertheless, they way the two of them sounded & whatever on earth the conversation stemmed from, it was like being white was an absolute disgrace or something. Now my girlfriend is 1/2 French & a  Mexican so, who is she to act so snobby about slumming it with her white boyfriend? Besides, half of me is mystery meat. My dad was illegally adopted and there is no telling what half of me is & if you were to see my father youâd be surprised just how dark he is.
I have never been one to discriminate one what nationality you are, what your ancestors have done or who your parents are, to me race is secondary to the person you are and I have dated girls of all types of different nationalities. However, in the recent few years I have noticed that with being white you become an easy target for being a racist & it seems to be a lot more socially acceptable to say degrading things about whites but if I were to say something similar about another group of people, Iâd be the biggest scumbag bigot alive. So Iâm white, Iâm sorry. Some of you might have a different view on this & that is fine, Iâm not here to argue I am just telling you my personal experience with being white does have flaws & isnât all about perks.

Posted by: gene on August 4, 2006 03:42 PMI had a good friend's girlfriend once accuse me of listening to "white girl music" because I mentioned that I like Cheap Trick. I could have understood attacking the choice for being banal, or even just bad, but "white girl"? It took EVERYTHING I had not to come back with "what..as opposed to spic girl music?" (She was Mexican) Not that I meant the slur that it is.. but sheesh.. if you really want me to draw out the stereotypes, by all means, let's bring it on. But seriously... what's the point? Don't we have better things to do? Let me hate you because your smarter than me, or prettier, but not because you are a racist retard. Come ON now...what a waste of oxygen!
Posted by: Jenn again on August 4, 2006 09:51 PMOkay, i confess, I'm too much of a pansy to be that hardcore...That was actually the response from my mexican girlfriend when I told her the story. SHE would have had the balls to say it outloud. I just stood there lamely, feeling vaguely guilty for some dumb, unnecessary reason.
Posted by: Jenn again, and again on August 6, 2006 02:32 PMWhenever you're confronted with racism but don't want to respond with another racist statement, you can always use a race-neutral statement like "lick my balls"
Posted by: docta v on August 7, 2006 12:06 PMI probably could have gotten away with that, but I daresay Chris might've had some problems if he popped that one back at his girl. Yessirree... some definite problems.

Posted by: docta v on August 7, 2006 02:19 PMthank god all I was drinking was water when I came back to check this comments section. Much less painful coming out the nose than other liquids.
The good docta might appreciate this story: http://www.theonion.com/content/node/51336

Posted by: Jennifer quadropod on August 7, 2006 03:11 PMThis blog has sparked quite a discussion in our office. And the unanimous decision is that "European" means "white".
Voted on by the Vietnamese dude, the Jewish chick and the black guy, chaired by the "European" babe. (me!)
Meeting adjourned!
Christopher w/removed crusts? Is this some form of venereal disease? Or is it just dried semen?
