  i wanted to know everyones opinion on him losing his show and his comments.. first of all i do think his comments warrant the cancellation of his show, but it should have never got that far.

  when you are talking with family it should never leave the house.

  it should stay behind closed doors.

  You certainly haven't offend me - however - you should read more history. White people have been enslaved for many years past - have you never heard of the slave trade between Africa and the British Isles? Never heard of the English selling off their own to plantation owners or stealing their own children to sell off? Many poor white English were sold off/auctioned off or 'indentured' by that government to the wealthy Americans prior to the African slave trade. sammieswife.

  Thanks, I did not remember that part.

  But I was refering to the scenerio of the majority of the white population being considered property.

  I know that people speak more freely when they are in private.

  Should a private convo be the reason he loses his show?

  That said, I heard what he said, and the language he used was imho, blatantly racist.

  As a caucasian or 'white' person myself, I would never utter that word, and I can honestly say I never have.

  It would never cross my mind to call someone else that in anger. I think that words uttered in anger are the most honest.

  Is it racist if you say it in anger to someone else? Some here have said it's not. To me, it is.

  I don't really care that people joke around using that word when it is putting down racism itself.

  Black people who joke using that word, are taking away the power of that word.

  It's the derogatory term there were called openly only 50 years ago, if they want to make fun of it,

  and it makes them feel better, then go for it.

  I would never though, since that word hasn't hurt me.

  Words like ''white trash'' and ''honkey'' or ''cracker'' are to me, are mean words, but not as offensive as the N word, but, that could be because I have never been made fun of simply because of my skin colour. I get offended if anyone uses the C word towards me, but get IRATE if a man uses that terms to describe any woman.

  If there was a radical change, and all of a sudden white people were a minority and were enslaved.

  The N word would have no more power at all. It might even change meanings to be a word of power. It is just a word, but because of the meaning attatched to it, that is what gives it power.

  It would be like ''white trash'' (which is not a nice term), but it doesn't have the emotionally charged meaning that the N word does.

  ''White trash'' would suddenly have another meaning altogether if 'white' people were enslaved.

  I hope I have not offended anyone....

  What a waste.

  We're not back in the 1800's where this was common place!

  This death was preventable if all she needed was blood.

  This religion needs to go down in flames.

  planning a career in online christian fundamentalist apologetics?

  how about the exciting world of young-earth creationism?

  witnessing to, and debating with, atheists and other hellbound unsaved sinners on the internet can be hard work, so you need to familiarise yourself with the tried and tested methods used by fundies all around the world.

  Do Ladies Prefer Gentlemen?

  dear lady friends,.

  i'm massively naif when it comes to the ways of the world.

  and 40 years a wta has not given me a great sense of what's real: crazy rules and regs on "appropriate behavior.".

  Do Ladies Prefer Gentlemen?

  Gentlemen strangers, yes, Those men are appreciated very much.

  They are polite, kind, non-threatening, and helpful. They hold doors open and help with heavy groceries, etc.

  Do I prefer a gentleman for a mate? No.

  As a mate, it is nice, but I like it that he does not treat me like I am fragile or weaker (even though I am weaker physically)..

  I am strong enough to help him do tough jobs, know my way around tools enough to know the difference between a phillips and robertson.

  I know how to use powertools, and I dont mind getting dirty.

  I'm a tom-boy though and not a 'girly-girl' so that probably is the reason why I prefer my man to treat me more as an equal,

  and not as a weaker woman who needs help.

  Maybe my views are wrong, I look forward to reading other's comments.

  For the ladies. Do you think that when you.....

  dress to impress, get all slathered up and have your little or lots of flesh showing, depending on your blouse, skirt, pants or shorts....that people(men) are not supposed to stare at you?.

  seriously, if your at home in your closet deciding which outfit you're gonna wear to work, school or out to play, and thinking how you'll look more attractive in this or that....do you not know that guys are gonna stare at you?

  but you see these females on occasion that will get all in an uproar when some guy is staring at them....but hello...didn't you choose with pin-point accuracy, the exact top that's gonna reveal your cleavage at it's fullest?????

  Notaness. were you gawking at a woman who was dressed sexy?

  Just wondering where this thread is coming from.

  Go ahead and stare at the women who like to dress sexy. Looking doesn't hurt anyone.

  The ones that yell at you are probably just grossed out at being gawked at.

  But I get it, if we're gonna wear revealing clothing, we better be prepared to be stared at.

  Heck, I check out everyone, and if you're hot and wearing sexy clothes, I will look at ya, but I try to be discreet.

  It's one thing to be gazed upon politely by a stranger and another thing to be leered at.

  But, if we women want to dress sexy, we should expect to be stared at.

  There are alot of men out there who don't know how to look using discretion.

  Most us normal women just ignore the creepy guys looking, unless they're really creepy

  Then we just get weirded out and scared.
