I always try to be fair with everything nowadays because it seems that nothing is fair, or is overly criticized....something like people can't have their belief that homosexuality is wrong w/o being called homophobic. i mean is it wrong? yes it's wrong, but am i going to bash or say i'm homophobic...wellllll i'll say this, i love lesbians.........LMAO lolol..but seriously, that's just one small portion of the not being fair/perceptive w/ whatever nowadays.
    Yep, that's the definition of stereotype. The negative aspects of black people dont apply to everyone, but they do apply to some. Black people stereotype white people too. Probably just as much if not more, but white stereotypes just seem to be harmless. Why? because for the most part, white people dont care. Think about something like the movie "white men cant jump". White people dont care about it. Imagine a movie titled "black men cant swim", can you even imagine the political shit storm that would happen if a movie like that came out????

    At a later point in time, my manager (female black lady) gave me a negative review for a raise. When i talked to her about it..... she said "dont worry about it, you're the corporate color, you'll move up faster than any of us"
