Are you black or white ? ( just asking)

Please dont take offence but ive just realised something maybe its been touched on before,.but when i was reading the thread on Bil Cosby I read the one off Obviously secret. Now as I am a white person I assumed he was white until he stated he was black. So when i thought about it, I imagine everyone on this site is white, does everyone who is black imagine everyone else is black, and anyone oriental imagine everyone else is oriental. Now you could say what the hell does it matter. But thats the point where else are you just taken for who you are, than on the internet. Even on the phone you discriminate against people who have an accent that makes them sound thick even if they have a degree. But my main point is not racism but what goes on in our heads

... well, you know those of a minority racial group don't tend to do that - so yes, it is just your imagination, just what goes on in the head.

Hi! I am a white boy, and my heritage is Italian, Greek, and Cherokee. The picture in my avatar is me, albeit not a very good one.

I'm Black, but I usually assume people are White. By the way, many Asians find the term "Oriental" offensive, so I'd try to avoid it if I were you. Oh and welcome!

I didnt mean to just include black and white I should of said.........etc but as for the oriental phrase I apologise for any offence but where i come from it usually refers to Chinese and Japanes etc and nobody there takes offence infact thats how they discribe themselves with pride.
