I will be very honest and say I wish I was born biracial (white/black)
Why : I find them very cute, I love the curly hair and the ones I know have the finest boyfriends/girlfriens plus a constant string of admirers.....

Any group where the people have great hair - Indian or Asian. I wish my hair was that lovely and straight!

No and no.. I'm big on (at least trying) to be happy with what and who you are.

I'm mixed with it all and very happy. Although I don't have any Asian race in me but they are in our family.

This is the second race poll and I wonder why??? Is this person/people trying to create drama on this site. I refuse to vote because it is irrelvant because is would never happen. Anyone who is not happy as they are has some serious issues.

Actually I think it might be a good for the world if everyone was forced to try each race.. Maybe a month per race.. get a little perspective on what people go through. Might end up with a little more tolerance in this highly judgemental world.

Karma that is a great idea but we are all mixed anyways some are just too ignorant to know it. In October we will be getting the 300 millionth American. Scientists are now saying America is so intermixed there are no more pure races left.

My co-worker's teenage daughter lives in Idaho and when she came for a visit she said her friends back in Idaho told her to take a picture with a "black person" because they had never seen one. Now that is ignorance at its finest. So apparently there are still places that are not all mixed up yet.

Nana I'm sure most minorities don't want to live or visit Idaho but we enjoy the potatoes

Very true.. we're all mixed, now if everyone could understand that we wouldn't have so many racial problems.

Audrey when I was in Minnesota last summer I started hanging out with the people in the apartment building I was staying in.. A few of the people were just starting college and they told me that they had only seen (wait for it) "one black person" before. Apparently a black kid moved to the small town they were from and it was big news. I was shocked but I guess that's reality for some people.

Ahh, also when I was working at the American Embassy in Warsaw I hung out with a black man that said he was terrified when he found out he got the job.. There are hardly any blacks in Poland and people will actually stare at them on the street! How sad is that?

Of course if they were raised not seeing or interacting with something, I don't know how much you can blame them for thinking its odd?

True karma. My dad is mixed black and white and he said when he lived in Omaha when he was younger people used to stare all the time. That is one of the reasons he likes living in California because people don't care like in other places.

Bye Audrey! I'm out for a while in a bit too Smiling

Cali that's one big plus for London.. it's a gigantic mix of everything imaginable and I love it. I have absolutely no tolerance for hating of any kind..

Except when I'm on a celebrity blog saying I want to push Chestica Simpson down a manhole Eye-wink

Okay, this might sound quite peculiar...but I'd like to be a puppy for a day, just to see life from their perspective. How they view humans, what they dream about, why they get so excited sometimes. I wouldn't be keen on sniffing other dogs' asses, though.

Please don't send the nice men in white lab coats for me.

LOL Tornado, it says "race" not "species"

25

LOL Pea...I know, I know...I kinda strayed from the poll's question a little, didn't I?

I don't know, I guess trying any race would be interesting solely for the sake of curiosity. But in the end I'm happy with who I am.

I like being white coz I have green eyes & more choices when it comes to haircolour, lol, but I also think it might be nice to have darker skin coz then I wouldn't have to worry about getting a tan, or blushing so much! I hate the fact that I blush so easily, its so embaraasing!!!

31

I would like to be a bird for a day. Or a tree. A weeping willow specifically.

8/14/06

32

Taking a temporary walk in someone else's shoes/skin would probably be good for all of us.

8/14/06

33

i'm happy being who i am but it would be neat to experience what other people deal with and i want asian hair so striaght i love it !!!!

8/15/06
