'white girl'

[deleted]

And that's exactly what’s wrong with the world. This is so hypocrite, either no one should call another person something based on their race or everyone should be able to do so.

Quite frankly I wouldn't mind anyone calling me "white boy" but then again I also find the whole "n word" business also quite small minded. I'm from the Netherlands and luckily we don't have "n words" that everyone is scared of. I really think that the big controversy around "n words" makes the problem only bigger. By banning a word like that you really give in to the problem. People should just be able to say the "n word", its not the word that’s the problem, its the fact that people that make such a big deal about this word actually are giving the word its power. That is why "lasiandra jaste's" comment is so wrong. You don't find white girl offensive since you assume there is nothing wrong with being white and therefore you basically imply that the "n word" is offensive since there IS something wrong with being black.

Now back to the movie, besides the fact that the story was terrible I found it exceptionally hard to watch the white girl trying to be black. I found this rather discriminating since it basically says "Now that you are wearing this horrible pink tracksuit with one leg pulled up we will accept you"

... and that's all i have to say about nam...

Yet if I (a Caucasian female) called an African America "Yo, Black Girl" I could be risking my ass getting kicked.


I see a lot more black people making fun of white people on tv, than the other way around. It's because whites now have to be 'politically correct' on tv, and not using words like the 'n' word (not that i'm advocating the use of it, personally I find it despicable that people still use it, and have never used it). Yet it's perfectly allright for African Americans or "black people" to call us Crackers. It's got the same derogatory affiliation, so it should be considered the same. But it's not.

It's all right for black men and women to call themselves the n word, as well as it's all right for them to call whites Crackers. But if a white person even ATTEMPTS to use the n word in public, they're risking their asses getting kicked, as well as becoming a social pariah. That's just wrong on so many different levels. That's discrimination...

I know all the reasoning that black comedians have given for their (and the black community as a whole's) use of the word, but I still find it morally reprehensible, to get offended when someone calls you a specific name (based on the color of your skin), and then go ahead and call them something similar, and then not feel anything bad.

Yes but even if you called someone "Black girl" they would blow a fuse and start acting like an animal.

it started to annoy me.
i just wanted her to turn around and say "fine black girl"
and see them all get offended.
but then whats the difference with them saying "white girl" and her saying the same.

hypocrites.

fans to nicole: can you say thats hot!!?
nicole: no, thats humiliating.

it was meant to appear racist. the whole movie was based on how both white and black people are still racist towards one another and showing that BOTH do it rather than just the blacks being racist towards the whites or visa-versa.

I think this movie really hit on the subject and it shows that this type of prejudice is still going strong in the world.

I found this movie breath-taking and i know it can never replace the first installment but it is by far the best movie to hit on that sort of topic.

I didnt expect this movie to be all that great but im glad i was wrong and i took the chance to buy and watch this.

Yeah, it's quite easy to see you're a white girl, from how ghetto you speak like a black girl.

Bone, it is what it is.

Ok, I think I got offended by your comment. I think that the whole "white girl" thing was supposed to open up the doors as to how that's just the way the world is. People are still hiding behind ignorance anyway and if it takes a made for DVD movie for them to see it, then so be it. So I'm going to basically say the same thing I said in another thread.

I wouldn't be offended if someone called me "Black girl" at an all white school. I mean, there was only 3 black girls in my grade in middle school and I was the only black girl on the track team in high school, so it was like "Hey, she's that black girl over there" or if they didn't know my name or whatever. In the movie, I'm pretty sure she only meant it as an insult in the beginning, but then it just kind of stuck like a nickname and became a joke.

I mean, imagine being the white girl in a predominantly black school and you insult someone without meaning to. Of course they're going to give you some sort of nickname that's going to make you stick out. She was WHITE. In a BLACK SCHOOL. So they called her "white girl." They could have called her "cracker" or some other racist name. So I, personally, don't find "white girl" to be racist at all. Now if it was a school where you had enough white kids, yeah, maybe it would have been considered an insult. It's not meant to be racist. So just get over it.

I, personally, have never heard ANYONE call a girl "white girl" as an insult. I HAVE heard other racist terms. Just like n!gga, I don't like hearing cr@cker. THOSE TWO are racist. ... But, gosh, if it makes you FEEL any better, I'll keep in mind that since it seems like a majority of people consider "white girl" to be racist, I'll keep my mouth shut.

Anyway, I don't see why it would ever pop into my head because that's not the first insult that comes to mind. If I wanted to insult you, it would HURT. And you wouldn't be questioning whether I insulted you or not.

And for a future not, I, personally, would appreciate it if generalizations like "White people have to be very careful what they say and do, Black people however just use it as an excuse" weren't used. I DO NOT use it as an excuse to get away with things and I find it insulting that you are, in a way, insinuating that everything that I have worked hard for in my life is because I'm using something as an excuse.

... And what the heck is the opposite of the "White People Awards." I don't know of any "Black People Awards." And if you're talking about the BET Awards, no one said that's just for black people, because white people like Justin Timberlake, Robin Thicke, and whoever else I can't think of at the moment on that station/award show all of the time. It's celebrating Hip Hop, R n' B, Rap, etc, which happens to be predominantly black while MTV tends to celebrate Pop, Rock and whatever is popular at the time, which--a lot of the time--happens to be predominantly white.

So PLEASE just think about/don't generalize things said so you won't end up indirectly insulting anyone.
