  1. I call them John or Dave or Paul or Joseph  or wherever their name is ? I wouldn't want to be called white-British btw, js ?
     
  2. but... but... being a milk bottle is awesome :(
     
  3. not really, i wish i was dark(er) :lol:
     
  4. Lmao. Y'all got him typing capitals..but yeah of u say black on here...it brings outs the negative comments. Some people can't read and comprehend like other people so they just write whatever without thinking. I think it depends on the government actually. Like when u fill out applications for the ethnicity there may be different wording. For example people in america have different ethnicity but there are mostly the main ethnicities so they will just go with those and write it down. They won't specify it. That's why they put other as a box also. But African americans are a dominant race in america. So are asians, Caucasians, etc. But it may be different in the UK. They can be called just African British or etc. It depends on the government because they do that cencus thing and that's where they determine the dominant races. U would have to ask a dark skinned person from the UK.
     
  5. My 94 year old great grandmother calls them something else. ..different times though. She won't even eat the food if a black cna brings it in.
     
  6. John I'm farming you grandma 
     
  7. You guys aren't getting the question.he's asking what do the people over in britian if they dark skinned called. As in when you fill out for any paperwork and they tell you what ethnicity are you, what do dark skinned people from the UK called.we're not breaking it down. We're just speaking in the generalization category.
     
  8. ^^thank you. Exactly my question.
     
  9. If u are born in Britain u are British, no matter what ur skin colour is.
     
  10. If you were born in Britain then you put "British"? that's your ethnicity
     
  11. Ok so it doesn't matter what skin color right? Cuz in america its a big deal lol
     
  12. Lamont. 2 different countries. 2 different ways. Black people in England are happy to be called English. It would appear it's mainly in America where this happens not so much everywhere else in the world.
     
  13. Its not a big deal in all of America. It depends on where you are.. And I agree dude. That answers it all.
     
  14. No not such a bid deal in other countries.
     
  15. No it's not a requirement to put ur skin colour, ur either British or "other" as far as I know.
     
  16. evrythings a big deal in america about any topic. If u talked about the purge sum dummy. Gonna think u a terrorist
     
  17. That has nothing to do with america. That's just peoples reaction to what you say. Lol. Me personally, you say that and I I just feel like OK. Lol
