Anything we post is going to be a stereotype. I'm black. My GF is white. People say I "act white" . There is no standard.

I heard that phrase is actually pretty offensive, and I can see why. Do you find it offensive/irritating when people say that?

Nah.  I'm just me all the time.  I wonder what people want me to do?  Sometimes, people make it seem like speaking articulately, paying bills when they're due, and wearing a sweater over my shoulders whith the sleeves tied around my kneck (just kidding!) is something to be ashamed of.  I am who I am and I'm happy.  I'd rather "act white" than live the alternative.

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm still badass!
