Ask My Black Friend Anything

[mulva]

i think i liked it better when SrslySirius was driving the bus.

we now have fitness experts, experts on law, and now black experts ready to dispense advice.

[SrslySirius]

No worries. Marvin's not here right now, so I'll relay all the questions to him tomorrow. I'm sure he'll be happy that another black person is here helping out.

Spend some time in poor white neighborhoods and you will understand.

Sorry for my ignorance, where would I have to travel to find one of these?

On a serious note. Do southern blacks also use the phrase, " damn, the hawk is out today?" when encountering an extremely cold, biting, windy day. Where you live, I'm not sure if he'd know what the fuck that means. It's something I have picked up through the years from being around a lot of black guys, and any northern black would immediately know what it meant. I dropped it on a black guy visiting from Florida once when he was up in Pittsburgh and we were coming out of a club, and he looked at me like I was using a pejorative term directed at him, and then I realized he was from Florida and might not know what the fuck I meant. Is that a phrase your friend is familiar with? because white people don't really use it in my experience. Wasn't like I said "I'm getting chalky." We start chalky.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...0055340AA0Mv5H addresses your first question.



Chalky skin occurs across all skin tones, but it is more apparent on darker skin.

Yeah, I could have googled it, but I already knew what it meant. I was curious as to if a southern black would know what it meant, hence the question. I take the fact that you googled it means you weren't familiar with the phrase?

I was more curious as far as if it's a regional colloquialism even amongst blacks rather than looking for a google result.

The chalky thing was a joke. Obviously it's just used by blacks a lot more.

That looks like nothing like my black friend Marvin. That's an Ethiopian. My black friend Marvin is an African American.

Marvin and Fckvwls,

Do you believe that liberal white America, and the liberal black establishment itself which are really just puppets, allowing black people to act like animals (ie allowing kids to run around in mobs committing racial attacks in public) is itself the ultimate form of racism? And does it bother you that by holding blacks to lower standards and fostering their feelings of oppression, liberal white America is guaranteeing the black community will never break their bonds.

[ErickAA]

Also, African Americans having longer penises on average is undoubtedly the same reason why they are more muscular on average, and the men (and women( more masculine looking. There are higher amounts of androgenic hormones (and more sensitivity by the responding cells) in this population than others.

[gauchojake]

Is it offensive if I call Brazil nuts n-word toes?

Do you know the definition of niggardly?

I think to assess the behaviors of the lower classes we must look to the history of this country. Enslavement and post enslavement, people of color have been victimized by extreme bigotry and cruelty that is still alive and well today. The effect this has had on family structure, earning capacity, access to basic human needs, and cultural attitude is significant. To hold a different standard as you say is to comprehend the origins of the problem... But this is not enough. Only when we change the tenets and the very fabric of human interaction will the standards (expectations) become reasonably equitable. What I am proposing is a departure from lazy thinking - an enlightened mending of fences. It can begin in your own home - in the way you teach your children. In the interim, legal and social standards must be enforced without prejudice - that is - all citizens of this country must be targeted, tried, and rehabilitated with equal measure, and basic access must be made available despite the stereotypes held by the decision making bodies and their representatives.

In all fairness, blacks dont have souls.

I read an account (presumably based on valid research) that showed black men do not in fact have larger penises on average. So I guess that's just another lazy brain stereotype.

The muscular quality you refer to may be attributable to careers that work the body more than they do mental acuity - this is a poverty issue and is rooted in lack of access to education and the job market in a still-bigoted market.
