Lying is never a good thing.

I've had a few guys tell me that if I wasn't Mexican or Native American Indian, they'd see me.

It does work both ways.

People like who they like.....I can't fault them for it. I don't know if racism always plays a part in it though. If it does, that sucks, but racism of any type is always going to be part of our lives. Move on and find another who is willing to see you.

I can honestly say I don't give two shakes about this most of the time. But I'm responding to someone about statistics, most statistics are bull$h/t. Have you ever been through the judicial system? When you have money and you do something you walk, go free nothing on your record for being good, usually the Caucasian race has resources to provide their family members with proper counsel. While the average African American teen does something they will get the max time just because their family doesn't have the resources to get proper counsel.

Same thing with statistics about std's, you have more African American people using health clinics so therefore more of them are diagnosed and recorded. The average Caucasian has a private doc who doesn't report accurate findings to protect his patient.

I love good people they come in all colors. Yes it's true to some point about stereo types but I feel if that's what the issue was the references would clear you.

Solid post blk07ac!!!!!

As someone who is slightly more than a casual observer of the judicial system, the only thing I would add (which I think blk07 would agree to), is if you have money....regardless of skin color...the system works totally different, no blindl justice there.

But still a great post by blk07, IMO!!!

IMHO, "fatism" is rapidly replacing racism. Although racism still exists and is pathetic.

He is/has been feared/hated/discriminated against and his natural response is to demonstrate he doesn't give a fuck. Together, we've created a vicious cycle of fear, hatred, and violence.

Regardless of how he got that way, he is a thug and he is dangerous.

I think most of the ads with that stipulation are intending to avoid thugs. It's life in the culture. It sucks. I like to think we're growing up, slow as it is.

Meanwhile, OP, all you can do is be patient and communicate to whatever degree you can. Through dialogue with intended provider/s, just like anyone else, it will become obvious that you are not the feared stereotype, and you'll get where you want to go.

well said, I had a friend tell me and show me how to ID dangerous spiders, so if they arent dangerous, I wont kill them, I will entice them to leave my home.

too much trouble, I just squish all spiders, but take a chance that one out of 100000 will be deadly? Pros dont outweigh the cons.
Thats how it works....another hardship to handle....I also face discrimination daily, and it does indeed suck as this is only a recent, yet permanent trait in my life now.
maybe the new pope can help? or maybe some milk will help

Several providers have told me that they refuse to see black men because they were robbed by a black male,;refuse to see any mal(of any race,creed or color, under 30 or 35years of age because they might cause drama and are too demanding.Obviously all of these are built in inner generalizations ,but never the less,that is what seveal ladies have told me.

"Please don't shoot me or get mad at me for saying all of this,because I'm only the messenger!"lol

replacing? no,
being fat is a choice, what race you are is not a choice

this country doesnt seem to understand personal responsiblity

LOL
I keep laughing when I see you eating and saying,with your mouth full, such an inaccurate statement as, "fatism is the same as racism"

Since no one can predict the future and since any given action can have many unintended concequences…
Doing the "right" thing may have a good outcome.
Doing the "right" thing may have a bad outcome.
Doing the "wrong" thing may have a good outcome.
Doing the "wrong" thing may have a bad outcome.


So when it comes to deciding what to do, you may as well just use your own judgement rather than relying on (someone else's opinion of) what's "right" or "wrong"

seems that the providers(man, why cant I just use sluts, would that get me banned?) are just trying to play it safe. and,right or wrong, what they do makes them feel safe, then thats all that matters

Whether it is or isn't a choice does not justify the bigotry. Ignorance is a choice too, but I don't discriminate against you just because you're ignorant.

So Gary, you're saying the ladies have the right to.. 'play the race card..'? We all have that right don't we. Even president Obama.
