Open Question: What is up with educated, stuck up white girls who try to be all ethnic?

Sunday, March 20th, 2011

I meet them all the time–girls who are super white…like so white they epitomize what it means to be white…and not in physical appearance, but in culture. I’m talkin about the ones who are uptight and prissy and think they know everything…you know what type I’m talking about lol.

I’ve noticed many of these types of super white girls trying to be so “worldly” and into different ethnicities and cultures. They’ll listen to non-mainstream hip hop like Common or Kaynon. They’ll try to be “down” with Hispanics at their workplaces. They’ll eat at Indian restaurants. They act like they know oh so much about the Isreali-Palestinian conflict.

But these same uptight, white chicks who think they are so worldly turn out to NOT have ANY friends who are not white haha. It’s so funny to witness, but I’ve seen it happen so often. These whities will act like they are so “down” with different races but deep down they are the furthhest thing from down. All their friends are just like them–uptight whities who think they are down, too. They have no close ethnic friends. They are too judgemental to handle friends of wildly diverse backgrounds and maybe even scared to embrace the diversity at such a close range. So it turns out they are total fakes and they just do it for show and/or to fill a void since their white American culture is so bland?

It’s all good to have all white friends and for those who would admit it and be real about it, then more power to you. But please don’t put on a front of being so “down” with other races and appreciating their music and culture, when you know you are only doing it to look cool and even the little culture of theirs you embrace is the “white friendly” parts.

We see through your act. Now please stop acting like you’re down and just embrace your whiteness. But if you are going to insist on being down, then do it all the way. Embrace all of our culture…not just the white-friendly parts. And be real friends with us. If you aren’t friends with people of different ethnicities, then you’re a total fake.
Barancy, you have it totally twisted. I’m not hating on whites. I have white friends and there are many that I love. If you re-read my post, I’m hating on the white people who are fakes and who pretend to appreciate other cultures when deep down they would never be friends with the people of those very same cultures. I didn’t say all white people were like this. But being that I’m in grad school, I’ve come across a LOT of white girls who act like this because they think it makes them look smart. It’s so irritating to witness. And I don’t judge by skin color. I love people who are open and non-judgemental no matter what their color. I can handle people of all colors and I truly appreciate them. I don’t put on an act because it makes me look “educated and cultured”.

Open Question: If you found out a straight or gay porn star was working in restaurant or fast food would you still eat their?

Just to say he or she wanted to earn some extra money on the side or try to live a normal life aside from their mainstream job. But what is they were making your sandwich or salad etc.. Would you care or not at all?

I’m just asking because some people say they wouldn’t eat where they worked.
Also explain why it would be or wouldn’t be so bad to eat at the restaurant they are working at?
I just want your opinion.

Open Question: Need the name of this song…very little to go on though!?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

okay so, someone help me? There’s this song…I’ve heard it in enough places to sing a little of it when I hear it but I can’t for the life of me remember any now…it’s a female voice…really pretty…(think Colbie Caillat or Corinne B. Rae) and the only word I remember in it is ‘murder’…it’s kind of like that ‘alternative mainstream’ type they play in stores and restaurants lately…slow yet with a little pick up in the chorus when the word ‘murder’ is in…really catchy….please help. its a great song…very new…….Help?
