Members JackPeyton Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 I am always stereotyped as a rich spoiled brat that does nothing but party with famous people and lets his parents pay for everything. And thats not true... well... not all true, lol. I actually work a fulltime job and pay all my bills. and if my parents were thr ich we would not live in riverside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DevotedToAMC Posted March 7, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 yea when I think of rich places in Southern California, Riverside does not come to mind. It does seem that people think, because you live in California, that you are rich. I have been in the upper middle calss but right now am in the middle class. There is still a significant part of the population that is right above the poverty line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bakedghoti Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 I work with french people a lot. some are nice. but the ones that are not are really.................. difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yep. Thi i will admit it. We are in the upper class. granted the lower-upper clas, but still upper class. But its not like i can go drop millions like people seem to think. The other day my friends wanted me to go to the hookah abr with them an i said no because i didnt have any money, and i didnt have any. They were all whatever, thats a lit. you could get money and got all pissy. sure i could go ask my mom for 20 to go to the bar, but why? she worked for her money, shes not going to the bar. it just annoys me. and i found out a few minutes ago that we live in riverside because its just a house my family has owned for 50 years. i still told my mom we should sell and move to malibu....

Members bakedghoti Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 funny, but there's a stereotype within your rant. some third world countries may be poor compared to other more economically-robust countries. but there is technology also.

Members bakedghoti Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 that the gay community is unified under that rainbow flag and everyone is represented. that's a stereotype if ever there was one! there's so much racial discrimination against racial minorities within the queer community.

Members DevotedToAMC Posted March 7, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 Whatever! This is an offensive post if I ever saw one! This thread was not meant to get offensive. I started it to open up dialogue. If you wish to write nasty stuff, take it someplace else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bakedghoti Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 and i write about discrimination in daytime and discrimination within the queer community to begin a dialogue as well. that is what message boards are for. everyone is entitled to their opinion. offensive is saying something like: "americans should commit atrocities during war" or something to that effect. i am expressing my opinion. everyone here is entitled to their opinion. that opinion is based on my experience and the experience of other queer males of color that share the same views as me. is there unity and equal representation within the queer community? clearly not. for every noah's arc, there's a will&grace, queer as folk UK, queer as folk usa, dante's cove, etc. what's worse is that some of those shows not only lack racial representation, but discriminate against other queer men of color. look at all the magazines (instinct, genre, out, etc.). majority of the models are usually white. is this a unified representation? my opinion is that there is a lot of racial discrimination against queer men of color within the queer community. you disagreeing with it does not make it "nasty". that is my opinion, and if you disagree, then that is your opinion. but this is how i feel and how other queer men of color that i know feel.

Members JackPeyton Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 i agree. some people just like to stir up drama for fun. the ignore feture on this board is love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bakedghoti Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 isn't it sad when people pretend to use the ignore button, yet keep responding to what you write? giggle! anyway, another stereotype is that asian people cannot speak english well. that's a bad stereotype.

Members Noel Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 People with dreads are pot smokers. Seriously, I was talking about an American Idol contestant and I made a comment about how this guy looks like he's a pot smoker and it turns out that he has dreads. But honestly, I was looking at his eyes and listening to how he talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DevotedToAMC Posted March 7, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 He responded to me, dipshit, not you. And nobody here thinks you are funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DevotedToAMC Posted March 7, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 LOL Noel my brother, at one point, had dreadlocks but, rest assured, he did not do pot. He smoked cigarettes but quit (not at the time he had dreads) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bakedghoti Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 Have you heard of indirect responses? I guess not. Nobody here thinks i'm funny? Hey everyone, devotedtoamc has telepathic abilities! he can read everyone's minds! Now if only he'll use his psionic powers to influence minds and stop discrimination against racial minorities in the queer community! As for your language choice, you like using those terms to express your opinion, yet you don't like listening to a spanish recording? how classy! anyway, back to topic, another horrible stereotype is that queer people are shallow. not all queer people are shallow, but based on my interactions with other queer men, i would say most queer people are. jmho.
