Are you offended if your white and a non white person calls you white boy/girl and stuff along the lines of that...

or If your Black and someone refers to you as black person etc......no bad words..example..."hey white boy/black guy come over here"

Can't say it has ever happened to me. There aren't a ton of black people wandering around in Idaho where I live. :)

Let alone people.. Don't you have more cattle than people? So you more likely to say "Hey steer".

Having lived in Atlanta for 15 years, I've had this happen a few times. I'm not offended, since, you know, I am (7/8) white, but it does seem to kind of belabor the obvious...

No, it hasn't happened to me, but if it ever did I would laugh my head off right in front of them, because I have Cherokee blood in my family heritage.:P:lol:

Call the person who said it racist... Since that's what I would get if I said "hey back boy/girl" here...
Not that I actually get offended by it.

Uh, that's not offensive. We don't have to say "African American" every time. Political correctness sucks.

No, but that's because its never been said to me in an offensive manner. The only times its been said to me was by friends who were joking around.

I reiterate: I'm not going to directly address somebody as "black guy."

If it happens on the street I'll take it as a minor insult, nog because of the words but because of the intention.

But I won't feel like my identity is harmed in any way, even is someone calls me like whatever, milkhead or whatever racial 'insults' there are for white humans, I won't care even the slightest bit.
