Unfortunately when you come to a society unbiased you notice how people treat each other a lot better.

Here some example. I played basketball at the neighborhood court mostly with African Americans and after they got to know me and we played together for a couple of month I could come to them and say: 'What's up niggas' without a problem at all. They know I respected them and basically this is where the problem is. RESPECT. I am very sure that your wife has all the respect for you so she can call you Nigga whenever she wants and it does not hurt you at all. However I am sure your mother would not approve the Nigga calling with your friends also because she probably recalls the 50's and the 60's where they were huge problems between whites and blacks. Therefore she simply dislikes the term as she thinks it shows the lack of Respect that a wife should have for her husband and vice versa.

So I think the questions cannot be answered straight with yes its ok or no its not ok. It is all about the situation and the place where to use it. So if you want to make sure you might be better off not using Nigga at all.

Just my

Thanks Andi for your

. I really appreciate it!

BAH! Sorry dougeetx, but anyone darker than my cracker ass is just another spear chucker to me. *ducking* and very much kidding!

LOL, I've often wondered the same thing as you asked in your thread starting post. I understand there are many underlying issues but I really feel that many of those issues are caused by either mis-information or dis-information that has been propagated over time. Without launching into a lengthy debate on the facts of history, et. al. I'll just say that much of the information being spewed by many is pure bullshit.
Bottom line: Words are only as powerful as they that hear/read them and allow them said power.

While it is a disparaging term derived from Negro, it's origins are very questionable and most likely not from anything that happened in the United States of America. If memory serves, and many times it doesn't, it came from the misinterpretation of what African slave traders were saying to the European traders that landed on their shores buying people for use in the slave trade.
The USA gets beat up on a daily basis for being the originators of slave trade. Guess what, we've only been a country for um... 383 years (and that's only if you count the landing at Plymouth Rock in 1620). Slavery was well in force long before this time.
The trade is well documented dating back to the ancient Egyptians that made it a practice of enslaving their very own people. The African people have a Huge history of slave trade on one level or another for at least one thousand years and it continues today. The Asian people have a penchant for selling their women into slavery, as do the russians and anyone else that has participated in "indentured servitude". The USA merely got slammed the hardest because our open media format and free speach rules of government allowed it to be talked about on an open forum.

I know I kind of drifted from topic here by talking about the actual issues of the usage of a single word, but at the same time I have to ask folks this: Do Italian born or Irish born or Asian born people make it a complete and utter grandstand display of disdain when someone says the terms "wopp", "mic" or "slope"? These people are also major victims of slavery (or have you not noticed the trains spanning this continent and the rest of Europe?) They may take it harshly, but they also know that that is merely part of life. People are idiots, so to speak. People of African heritage seem to feel singled out here, and in some ways yes, their hardships were very ugly - I give them that bit of credit.

But, people of African heritage also tend to slander their own credibility by calling each other, in jest or not, terms like "nigga" (which IMHO is nothing more than a cop-out way of calling a friend a ******). "Nigga" or "Niggah", to my knowledge, has no base in any language other than English slang; it wouldn't seem to have come from any African language, according to the OED or any other comprehensive dictionary on languages.

dougeetx, while I think these terms are what keeps our races verbally segregated, you can call me honkey and cracker any time you want. It's a commeraderie thing, and in this case a show of friendship. :D

Peace out, you <insert racial slang for fun here>'s.

Its all about the tone of how you say it.

There's ****** and there's ****** and they have 2 distinctly different meanings.

Funny shit, I had a black dude, with a case of road rage, who I had cut in front of on Hwy 1 recently, zoom past me and he called me a fucking ****** and I'm white so go figure. In today's world I don't think it is referrencing the black race anymore. Its gone beyond that.

Now, she mistakingly said, "Nigga please!" in front of my mother. Whew! I thought it was going to be WW3. My mother took it in stride and talked to me about it later. Now, is it racist to say that??? I personally don't think it's racist b/c we as black people say it to each other all the time...... "Wazzup Nigga!"......"Show me some love Nigga!"......"Nigga please!"....."I'm going to whip that Niggas ass if he doesn't pay me my motherfucking $25!", etc! So, why is it so wrong when someone white says "nigga"???? I know one of the arguments will be "we're saying nigga and they're saying ******". So, for those of you who might come back with that argument, if "they" said "nigga", would it make it alright??? Hmmmm...just food for thought!

here's the deal... many people may not agree... but a large portion of the back people use the term "******" among themselfs in this day in time... I would say that 10 years ago.. the word "******" would have been a racist term for sure... but now the meaning is deluted..

Now being white, I'm not going to go up to a black guy and call him a "******" now that would be racist.. but if it's a back guy I hang with then it would be ok to say "hey what's up my nigga"

But you can't take a word and allow one group of people to use it, and it's ok.. but if another group of people use the same word..then say it racist...
What you can say is racist is how the word is used...

To say that you don't recognize differences in people of a different race is unrealistic. That being said, I think treating someone differently (not giving them the same chance of being a friend, proving their worth to you as a fellow human, etc) because of their ethinicity is wrong. If you are intolerant to people because their a different color, or have a different background as you then you are the only one who is being sold short, by yourself.

There are racial differences. For example, black men have a strong tendancy for darker skin. It does not make me a racist for acknowleging this difference. Black men have a higher suseptability to sickle cell anemia, too. Do you want the medical community to ignore that fact in the spirit of political correctness?

I'd be a racist if I said "Those darkies sure are stupid." The difference is that I'm then judging their worth based on their skin tone.

I have an opinion on this if you would like to hear it.

I think both races should put the term away for good and try to concentrate on getting rid of stereotypes.

It bother's me that blacks can call each other ****** all day long but a white man saying it gets beat up. I would understand that, if they didn't call white people "cracker", and many other names that are not racially blind.

They (Not all) talk all day about racism, (and mostly the only ones who do) but are very prejudice against whites.

I tried to date a black gal once down in New Orleans and got beat up by her family. Prejudice goes both ways.

You are younger than 30. Try going up to any black man over 30 and call him a ******, and see how far in the ground you just put yourself.

Sure, in your tiny circle of young pups it may be ok. Just be careful when you get out of high school. (J/K) You may find out it's not so acceptable still yet.

I do agree with you that that is how it should be for the most part. I would be happier if everyone quit thinking of skin color as a reasonable judge of character though.

Sorry dougeetx, but anyone darker than my cracker ass is just another spear chucker to me. ducking and very much kidding! LOL, I've often wondered the same thing as you asked in your thread starting post. I understand there are many underlying issues but I really feel that many of those issues are caused by either mis-information or dis-information that has been propagated over time. Without launching into a lengthy debate on the facts of history, et. al. I'll just say that much of the information being spewed by many is pure bullshit. Bottom line: Words are only as powerful as they that hear/read them and allow them said power. While it is a disparaging term derived from Negro, it's origins are very questionable and most likely not from anything that happened in the United States of America. If memory serves, and many times it doesn't, it came from the misinterpretation of what African slave traders were saying to the European traders that landed on their shores buying people for use in the slave trade. The USA gets beat up on a daily basis for being the originators of slave trade. Guess what, we've only been a country for um... 383 years (and that's only if you count the landing at Plymouth Rock in 1620). Slavery was well in force long before this time. The trade is well documented dating back to the ancient Egyptians that made it a practice of enslaving their very own people. The African people have a Huge history of slave trade on one level or another for at least one thousand years and it continues today. The Asian people have a penchant for selling their women into slavery, as do the russians and anyone else that has participated in "indentured servitude". The USA merely got slammed the hardest because our open media format and free speach rules of government allowed it to be talked about on an open forum. I know I kind of drifted from topic here by talking about the actual issues of the usage of a single word, but at the same time I have to ask folks this: Do Italian born or Irish born or Asian born people make it a complete and utter grandstand display of disdain when someone says the terms "wopp", "mic" or "slope"? These people are also major victims of slavery (or have you not noticed the trains spanning this continent and the rest of Europe?) They may take it harshly, but they also know that that is merely part of life. People are idiots, so to speak. People of African heritage seem to feel singled out here, and in some ways yes, their hardships were very ugly - I give them that bit of credit. But, people of African heritage also tend to slander their own credibility by calling each other, in jest or not, terms like "nigga" (which IMHO is nothing more than a cop-out way of calling a friend a ******). "Nigga" or "Niggah", to my knowledge, has no base in any language other than English slang; it wouldn't seem to have come from any African language, according to the OED or any other comprehensive dictionary on languages. dougeetx, while I think these terms are what keeps our races verbally segregated, you can call me honkey and cracker any time you want. It's a commeraderie thing, and in this case a show of friendship. :D Peace out, you <insert racial slang for fun here>'s. __________________ I'm not a porn monger. I'm a porn ... STYLIST!

Funny shit, I had a black dude, with a case of road rage, who I had cut in front of on Hwy 1 recently, zoom past me and he called me a fucking ** and I'm white so go figure. In today's world I don't think it is referrencing the black race anymore. Its gone beyond that. __________________ If you would like to develop your domains, you can lease inexpensive foreign labor from the leaders in the field at iWebmasters.com TO LOWER YOUR COSTS AND INCREASE YOUR PRODUCTION! * * * * * * * * * * * *** Domains Adult News KRL's Newsletter Biz Tips Just Listed Domains
