I don't think so, if it was really that weak you would answer the question, but you cannot because you know how demeaning it is to reduce someone to something as absurd as the pigmentation of their skin.
Originally posted by FMFwhatever but we both know I am right! You will see one day that the practice will become obsolete as people are treated as individuals, not according to the pigmentation of their skin.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieOn page 12, you claimed that you have told some undisclosed number of black people that you find the term black to be demeaning and offensive and you would rather that it was not used.
I haven't lectured anyone, now you are just foaming. Drool alert!

Originally posted by robbie carrobieWhere have I suggested anything that could even remotely be construed as being against "people being treated as individuals"? What new banter is this, robbie?

Originally posted by FMFIts not new banter FMF, its self evident reality from your text, you think using the term black accurately describes someone. Why you feel the necessity to make reference to the colour of their skin is known only to you. Why do you?

Did you stop mixing with the black people who ignored your request or did they all accept you projecting your linguistic preferences onto them?

Originally posted by FMFyes you made it up you slobbery drooler. Some related accounts of their growing up in the UK, my Jamaican friend from Manchester, was called, 'blackie', when she attended her primary school, such a derogatory term of course for you is nothing, its like divegeester with his hooliganism, 'hey im cool with that', you are cool with these racist slurs.

Originally posted by FMFdude you have no problem labelling people according to the colour of their skin, its all good as far as you are concerned. Lets ask you outright, would you have had a problem with my Jamaican friend being called, 'blackie', at school?
What "racist slurs" are you claiming I am "cool with"?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieBlack British identity as they themselves define it and express it through English is certainly not "some jive talk". Have you put this theory to any of the black people you have met?
you palmed of us with some jive talk about social convention! FAIL! EPIC!
