You don't think it would be insulting for someone to ask if you dye your hair? Before they even know you at all? It's rude to ask any personal question before you know someone. Asking about an accent is completely different IMO

My MIL got that too. Once she was walking with my brother in law and a woman asked if she was the nanny. She is Puerto Rican and he was a blond haired baby with light eyes but it was ridiculous that this woman would immediately go there.

This was in a trailer park, for what that's worth. Not that there is anything wrong with that but this particular one was right in meth country. I've been to Texas many times as an adult and I've never heard that there either.

I have no problem with my identity, what I hate is the assumption that this is an appropriate question to ask when the person doesn't even know my last name. That implies that my race is more important than anything else about me. Also, I have a distinct look about me and I've had too many uncomfortable moments with

It's rude to ask at all if you're just meeting the person. It's a different story if it's among friends in my opinion.

I agree, it is a seriously rude question. It especially bothers me when it comes from a complete stranger. If I've known someone for a while and it comes up it's a different story.My best friends and I have had this discussion and it didn't bother me in the least, because it was brought up in a normal discussion and I

I get that all the time too and it frustrated me to no end. I was born in Texas and my mom said that people would literally come up to her and say 'what kinda critter is that'. I also lived in the mid west for a few years (my dad was in the military) and kids would follow me around saying 'ching chang chung! Chinky!'

To me it's the alley part along with the jumped that makes me think of rape, as in the classic getting raped in an alley boogeyman, or ya know 'forcible' rape that apparently can't make babies (if you listen to certain politicians). I do think this a bit of a stretch but I can see the connection and he only made it

Get over yourself.

I read everything from Fox News in Limbaugh's voice for reals. Can't help it. Though I only read the douchiest stuff that my mom sends me (or I read here).

Slutz 4 liyfe yo

I wanted to add that only my 80 year old grandma say snookered. And she was also a slutty Mcslut slut that lived with a man before marriage (her second one in the late 60s but still).

Oh, they always have love babies. In the historical ones they might even have like 6 love babies. I remember stealing my mom's Bertrice Small books and there was always a bunch of love brats running around.

Pretty in Pink makes me gag too, so you're not alone on that. I'm still a sucker for Dirty Dancing though.

That's great and Imma let you finish but this

Add in some abusive sex and you have yourself 50 Shades of Grey.

This right here. I don't think it's that difficult. People (read: not gender specific) should respect each other.

*Slow Clap* This is exactly what I've been trying to say for years, but you said it much more eloquently than I could have.

"Pay the rent. Make him feel safe. Tell him what to do and how to be. And make it all look hot." THIS!

Oh that is definitely a part of it. Especially after Charlie Sheen left. I'm not a Sheen fan but the show was somehow LESS disgusting with him on it, which is astounding. Jon Cryer's character now has no redeeming value whatsoever.In fact no one on that show has any. I used to watch occasionally to laugh at Charlie
