It's very annoying what most of my fellow Africans/Blacks portray about themselves(cheats,frauds,thefts even worst still, Xenophobia). It makes it almost impossible to get on with someone who if things work out well, may have been one's better half. People tend to stay away and stir clear of the Black race, but we're not all the same. I'm proud to be an African and a patriotic one. If only you can give some people one chance, then, you'll see how wonderful and marvelous they are. I hope I can find that special person who understands perfectly....(Heart incomplete)

I'm right there with ya man, & I wish you ALL the good luck in the world! (You remind me of one of my lifetime best friends, actually.)

I've gotta say though, you have your work cut out for ya - MOST people (of any racial background) aren't even going to know what xenophobia means (without looking it up)...

Welcome to M2, & best of luck on your search!

I don't really understand this.

Okay.
I have a doorway.
Most people that walk through it will be decapitated.
But not everyone!
Of course there are other doorways, but why not just give my doorway a chance you may see how wonderful it is going through it...even though there are other doorways that lead to the exact same thing without decapitation (or being cheated, frauded, thefted, xenophobized).

That's basically what you're saying.

If someone from Syria said "I see most Syrians portray themselves as suicide bombing murdering terrorists...I'm proud to be Syrian and patriotic...but I'm different than most, you should give me a chance, hang out with me and see..." would you really want to?
Would you really blame anyone for not hanging out with that guy?


The irrational fear of Lucy Lawless?

Lucy Lawless is HOT!
