Last night, I was at a Friday's having dinner with a friend of mine who happened to be black. We're friends, not dating and no relationship.
As we sat there, two unattractive white women sat sneering at us from a table next to us.
I heard "...take all the good men..."
And a lot of other racially charged comments. Luckily for them, my friend didn't hear them. (I have hyper-active hearing and I can hear **** like this all the time). That would have been an ugly scene and they would have looked like even bigger *******s than they were.
Have we really come anywhere in race relations? These women were about 28-35...so it's not like they were from the Brown V. Board of Education days. They've been raised in a society that encourages inclusion and tolerance of differences.
I was shocked. As I left, I looked directly at them and
towards them. One of them got pissed, one of them buried her head in shame.
So, tRCMB...what's the deal? Do we talk a good game but don't follow through with it?
Does anyone here...honestly...have a problem with two people of different "races" and sexes having dinner together?
