i did not mean to offend you in any way, and i do agree with you 100% about the "racism". by the way, i loved ur home page!!!

and guitarrockinchick:chances are high you ll be coming across me saying "white girls cant dance" or similar things are untrue and racist when checking US bellydancers entries (inter alia stuff byWDNY, Sandra or Michelle Joyce from California and many others), just to say how ridiculous it is attacking ME for saying nonArab or white girls were not to do bellydancing or couldnt.I take it you have a lot of rage towards whomever judging from your post - and assume it is not me you intend to hit.

To add, Meche8099:I do not agree with most allegations of "racism" towards Arabs, for instance, when it comes to how men are oftentimes harrassing Western or Latn women and thinking they d be "easy".This is a widespread behaviour that I as a mixed person with black wavy hair, bronze ski and light blue eyes have often experienced by Arab youth in European cities. got blue eyes, must be Western - sl**. If a large amount of Arabs behave that way - it s not racism to me, they re choosing that way!

meche8099 thanks for your suggestions and hints..They are insightful and helpful, as they seem to be coming from a person who knows bout both sides.On the "racist" I tend to not agree, because to me racism is related to qualities or "defects" of ppl based on their blood, the "racial features" they are born with. A behaviour is a choice of every human being, so I do not like to subsume it under "racism" which is much more wicked as it limits ppl to what they cannot alter, colour and stuff.

guitarrockinchick - these are the comments of yours I found belittling and ultimately disrespectful - and from my experience (sorry to say) behaviour widespread in the US:well did you know Suhalia Salimpour invented tribal dance? I bet not.you still dont get what I am saying.Im SO glad Im writing a paper to inform peopleRead some more dude, you're starting to get it.Note at that time of the discussion I was very patient and not getting personal at all. Explainin MY viewpoint, respecting

yours.That is what I got.My point about Independence Day (no one said it s not a shit movie) was Americans (and this is visible in highschool education) are brought up being told they re the best in the world, they ll show the world how things are done. And this manifests in such shit movie's dialogues. I think Americans are seldom told these things because the ones critical of the US bring nothing but pure hatred ("imperialism") towards them, ridiculizing the actual wrong mentality underlyin

i didnt say slowly starting to get it. im done arguing with you seeing as it pointless. you insult people and then rub them off because they're an "american". you do it with more than just one person you were arguing with someone earlier saying the same things. Independence day? are you SERIOUS??? that sci-fi piece of crap? youre such a hypocrite when all i was saying was i was agreeing with you, and all you wanted to do was shun everyone away because were "americans". go figure!

so no one should aruge about what is right or wrong, if one wants to inform others about how the REAL CULTURE and its true back grounds, then by all means allow them too. don't fight about it, help her out so that she won't misinform others. that way both of you are doing ur part to get the real message across.... good luck ladies.... |
