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?

That's ridiculous.
But confronting them probably wouldn't do anything. People don't change.
I am seriously considered doing something to get arrested so I can spend some time with the chicks that are getting arrested tonight....

If (and im not being racist) the white girls were actually agressive and pursued guys instead of playing games and waiting for us to "woo" them, they would be better off. Even notice why girls who are flirtacious and agressive towards guys are rarely alone (yes can be whores too), but still not alone.
Imagine what your experience would have been like down here in the South.
My good friend here at work is white and she is dating a black man. You should see the looks they get when they are out in public here in Greensboro. She says that anytime they go out to a nice restaurant or go to one of the bars here in downtown GSO, they would both be dead 100 times by now if "looks could kill."
Pretty sad, but still happens in this day and age.

I think it bugs women more than men. If I see some black dude with a white chick then I'm more critical than a white dude with a black chick, because I dig black chicks and if she's cute I'd understand.
You think white women are bad, try bringing that black chick with you to a black area. Or even worse a white chick with a black dude in a black area. You won't get whispers....

Depends where this occurred, some areas are still in the era of Reconstruction no matter what year the calendar says it is.

__________________ Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.
Just because we don't live in Brown v. BOE times doesn't mean that society as a whole has matured. It sucks that you overheard what you did, but there are plenty of ignorant people around who have never left a 1 mile radius of their homes. I used to hear all kinds of **** as a kid, and I still do as an adult. Although the frequency of these events has decreased, I'd say the sting factor has increased some. Like you, I hoped that adults just know better and are more tolerant.

Very good points...and very true. On spring break this year, I was being a wing-man for my buddy and started talking to this girl's friend, who was black. The girl was awesome...we had a ton in common, so I actually loved hanging out with her over the week. But when we all went to the clubs, whenever I would dance with her, all of the black guys there would yell things out to me and give me ****. The ignorance is there on both sides and it's unbelievable how backwards the world is at times.
