Why is it 'sweet' exactly and not just the same as say, someone opening a door for another?

OMG! Beyonce acted like a normal decent human being!

And why exactly do American's think the nuances of thier racism is so different and special, then?

Yeah this reply wasn't meant specifically for you. I just chose you to reply to, there were better choices, sorry to put you on the spot. There just seems to be an awful lot of posts here talking about how 'oh Canadians don't understand the monkey connotation because Canada'.

Seriously! Who are all these Americans that think Canada is some utopian anti-racist sheltered society? Canadians can do racism with the best of 'em. Quebec is trying to get a super racist law passed that bans religious head coverings in all public services right now.

Your experience pretty much mirrors mine. It seems you understand what I'm getting at. :)

No you fucking douche. I was actually sent to a different school from grade 6 on because I was gifted. Never mind that anyway, since paying rent before being out of high school has absolutely zero bearing on whether or not one was held back due to intelligence, I question your ability to process logic.

"Graduated high school with 36 bucks to my name and started from there."

Okay, if I accept that you believe a certain segment of the population should be banned form buying certain items you feel are too luxurious, that sounds serious, but okay.

Oh fer fuck sakes.

Well that's a different story altogether, but the link I got from this article was this:

“There is a difference between pornography and pop music,” he said. “It’s important . . . to keep that line in place.”

Seriously. I have a hard time believing this kid just up and decided to run a half marathon as 'her own choice' either.

Mk. Just checking. :)

Are we sure this isn't a chipmunk?

This is the correct answer. Twice in my life I have seen a woman/girl cry over losing her long hair. Both times: "Everyone will think I'm a boy! Sob!".

I live around the corner from where this is going on and my opinion was pretty much the same. This sounds pointless at best, awful at worst. I don't get it.

A female-bodied feminist who would read something like this and knee-jerk to the thought "hey, what about cis-women and our lack of privilege?" is wrong.

Oh thats whats got you so upset!

Ugh. having to hear the racist jokes. I hate that so much. It does good, at least, for us to be able to report to other pocs how bad the problem is behind our backs, but so awful to hear.
