"Did you get her number?"
"*****............"

Meaning yes, its all in the tone.

White people cant say it though LOL.

For real.

I dont mind being called a "black man" in an non racist way for thats what i am, but i dont see why my race should define me.

And to the white people sayin there not offended by being called Whitey Etc, its because the history is different, over the years your acestors didnt expirience what ours did, so we have different mentalitys towards it, in my opinion.

why not? I don't see the problem if they are using it in a joking, whimsical way like blacks do. After all, it was the blacks who 'brought it back' as it were and made it a cool, visible word to use. Then they get offended when anybody but them uses it?

And by the way if someone ever called me that to my face, I would have to open up a can of whoop ass!!
