    "....and they've got big dicks, and are good at sports, and dance better, and...look, this is just science! Am I going crazy? Am I in crazy town over here!? :calli:".

    Diacanu needs a girlfriend, too, btw...
    By Cthulhu the All-merciful, that would untie so many knots.

    Yes. But when they correlate, criticism of one can be easily supposed as criticism of the other.

    Even the slavemasters of the south who wrote volumes on how black people were animals fucked them. Some dudes will stick their dick in anyone, and that does not mean they are not racist. It also does not seem to cure them of racism, especially since racism seems to run hand in hand with sexism (Paladin does that too). Sexists love to fuck women and do not think of them as human like they are.

    @Paladin is a sick cunt of a racist. If it were legal dude would love to go to a lynching. If Paladin had a time machine the firast thing he would do is go back to find some lynchings he missed. It would be TIVO for his racism.

    Nah, he isn't that sort of racist.

    He doesn't seem to hate people because of their race.

    interesting that you'd wonder if she was "available" rather than "interested","willing", or "into mediocre old white guys".

    or is the inherent objectification based on sexism here?

    I must have missed the posts in which Jan Jansen made racist statements. Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Maybe you should lower your standards a bit in terms of looks. Who the hell is this woman anyway? And by love I don't just mean sex, but a loving relationship based on acceptance and respect. Of course! That helps against bad thoughts.

    Ok, maybe I've been watching too many bad soap operas lately. Like Star Trek: Discovery. ;)

    one could probably go for the low hanging fruit of fetishizing WoC or the utilitarianism involved in
    like it'd be a red seal qualification; but it'd be lazy to do so without first enquiring as to the motivation behind the statement. Dig into it, you might get a decent conversation about stereotypes-both semi valid and imagined about the pros and cons of interracial dating that I suspect there isn't much of a local opportunity for experiencing in Switzerland.

    :yes: Paladin isn't a hateful person, but his ideology paints him into a corner because it won't allow him to accept that social inequities can result from anything other than individual merit and effort.

    If one is racist, it matters not if the racist hates. What matters is if the actions and words of the racist injure an individual or individuals of that race. Paladin’s actions, by way of votes, makes him just as bad as any asshole who has ever been involved in a lynching.

    Thread title still sounds like a note the bitchy mean girls passed each other in study hall. Check 'yes' or 'no.'

    No, if we were being bitchy we'd ask that and then point out that it's a fucking short page.

    Oh, like hell. You'd make a pastime of trading pissy gossip and petty comments, just like now. Have you commented on his fashion sense yet?

    Again with imagining your adversaries as feminine.
    What is that obsession?
    I hesitate to call it misogyny, because of the tantrum it'll spiral you into....but what other vocabulary is at my disposal that isn't a lie?

    Mate, I'm sat about the house in a wifebeater top and jogging bottoms.

    When I'm out and about it's black V-neck T-shirts and cargo pants, with non-brand trainers.

    I still use Lynx (Axe for colonials) on occasion, but mostly it's Brut.

    I can, however, still call a racist a racist. You could be in fucking Armani and that stench wouldn't wash off you.

    That would be a yes on her handling that spasm like a fucking champ. Do I see some cum popping out of her tear ducts? I think that is a BINGO!

    Dude, you know @Uncle Albert is rocking some khaki cargo pants and a polo. I bet he has the goatee and all. Shaved cue ball head, ...........oh no, he probably has a long mullet.

    probably at least one black FP with gold trim... maybe a Herrington.

    guessing at one point he had some 14 hole cherries or oxbloods with yellow laces at some point, too.

    Maybe "racist" in the modern parlance, where applying the same standards to everyone's conduct is somehow unfair. You'll not find me all that impressed with such a verdict.

    That you call an A-Shirt a “wife beater” says more about you than your insinuations about UA. Time for you to get in a boiling hot shower.

    You show me evidence, and I'll show you "creatively interpreting" something beyond all recognition. Whoever told you that kind of shit was clever has done you a disservice.

    It merely says I didn't know the term "A-shirt". Over here, we'd call it a vest, but I know Yanks don't, so I went with a term I know is used both sides of the channel.

    I'm wearing one. I am not judging all men who wear one as wife-beaters, nor condoning wife-beating. Such men are the lowest form of scum.

    But the vests are comfy in the heat.
