I don't think you can call all people in their 40's old, some people that age are old though, just because of their old fashioned outlook on the world.

Yeah agree with that, I dont agree with Jessica that white people cant ever have derogatory comments against them because of their ethnicity though, no offence Jess but that's just stupid.

No it didn't go over my head, it's a ridiculous argument though.

Waaaah poor me, im a victim etc. The straight white is the devil and so on.

It's funny, lots of these middle class, starbucks drinking, we're gonna change the world uni types who buy into all this bs are usually living off daddies money. Straight. White. Male.

The hypocrisy is astounding. However all this extreme left pc nonsense hasn't exactly got these people anywhere. The proof is in the pudding :)

Except nobody says that.

A discussion about homophobia, sexism or racism is normally met by "I'm a man and I..." "But I'm white I don't have it easy" "I'm straight it doesn't mean I have an easy life" which misses the point.

Straight white men aren't attacked, they are disqualified from bleating about racism, sexism and homophobia which they don't experience. They tend to see it as an attack, however, which leads to the problem.

It does. Age can be a mindset, hence the ones who appear older/younger than their years. :hee:

Cracker and honky are slurs against white people.

Yes. Age is an attitude.

I know that words like that exist, I just don't believe they are actually offensive. The people who have been known to use words like that have had it a lot worse.

I miss seeing Niamh sitting at her fireplace, glowing in the light of her burning cigarette, :love:

Marsh. 20-12-2019 11:22 PM

I forgot she smoked.

Sexism, racism and homophobia aren't the only thing people face in this world. No matter race, religion, sexuality, gender, **** happens and life isn't easy. White males do face racism, this is just fact. White straight males are not immune to rape, to murder, to bullying. They're not immune depression, anxiety, cancer, disease. Straight white males may not face homophobia, granted, but they do face hate crimes, they do face sexism and they also face plenty of struggles. Just like everyone else.

She smoked up the chimney because she is polite and didn't want to make things stink for her family. :lovedup:

Living on a council estate doesn't excuse using slurs. All ethnicities are equally "privileged" now, so there's no punching up when it comes to racism.
