Non-multi-racial people with immigrant or "ethnic" parents are often rejected by one or more sides as well. My cousins and I are all "100% Chinese" yet my (paternal) grandmother seems to prefer those raised in Hong Kong than the Canadian-raised ones. It seems she thinks the Hong Kong raised cousins respect her more…

The culture point is important. I think Halle and her family will still believe that Nahla is denying her Black AMERICAN heritage, even if she was raised with a lot of Black Quebecois influence. Black Quebecois culture/cultures =/= Black American culture/cultures. Of course, you could look at it the other way and say…

Their petite line starts at 00P or 0P and goes up to 14P (size 4P is shorter and slightly slimmer than a size 4, but wider (though still shorter) than size 2 regular). It's cut and designed for shorter women 5'4" and below or average-heighted women with shorter proportions. But yes, they vanity size like crazy. As for…

We still think it might be an error on the J.Crew side. A few items on the new arrivals list which are available in petite sizes haven't been added to the petite category. In addition, the price discrepancy has never been seen at J.Crew before.

The Black Eyed Peas sound GAWD AWFUL...guess that's what happens when you don't lip synch.

Both my parents worked and I'm not overweight. My cousins all had working moms and they aren't overweight. The way I look I look at it, it's about HOW people prepare the food at home. Working moms don't have much time to make dinner (and it's usually Mom who makes dinner, not Dad), so they usually throw something…

She probably has no idea what she's saying. When I was a lot younger than her - probably around 10 months, I was able to "recite" parts of the Ballad of Mulan in Cantonese. Of course, I had no idea what I was saying - I was just repeating sounds.

@monstermax: Weren't there tablet-laptops running Windows like 3-4 years ago? And didn't they die a really quick death (likely because they weighed like 7 lb)

Kanye looks like he's about to interupt the photog...

@firefly82: Maybe cheerleading, but probably not football, since it's a sport and schools offer gym (um, I mean physical education).

Dear Crazy Right Wingers:

As I've said before, I really don't like how certain segments of Christianity like to claim the whole "Christian" thing. One reason why many more "progressive" denominations prefer to be more specific. It's not good to be one of "them" after all. And Catholics, despite being more conservative (well, we're supposed…

Question: Why do media tend to focus on blacks when they discuss issues concerning non-whites? Why aren't there many stats on Hispanics or Asians? What's is the infant mortality rate for Asian babies, for example? What about the moms? One thing I *DO* hear is that the teen pregnancy rate among Asians in the US is…

Well DUH!

This kid had 8 accidents in one month. Isn't that more than is "typical" for a 3 year old?

@turtleturtle: Except the people who are anti-evolution don't back the Vatican and many are anti-Catholic.

Ummm it's Jonathan who is gay, not Jordan. And if you ask most of my friends, their fave NK was Joe. The order usually went like this:

I always thought "princess culture" meant frilly lacy things and good manners - the latter of which is a good thing, especially when a girl grows up to be CEO.

@Manly Pointer: Well, that's going too far. When I was in elementary school back in the 80s, many of the Asian kids would go to Kumon in addition to the usual piano and swimming. Kumon, however, was once a week for about an hour - two if you include commute.
