White people shouldn't call you bro like black people shouldn't call you bro either. I'm black, no one calls me bro or the n word, black or white, it shouldn't be a matter of color but respect. I don't understand why you need to single out whites on that matter.
Likewise it would be stupid to say it's ok for girls to call each other bitch or cunt, but not ok for a man to do that because he is a man.
- pessimizer 11y agoI'm black, and I feel as if I'm in a brotherhood of common experience with other black people. I'm perfectly fine if someone from that same experience calls me brother or bro. But take it from me, I get bro from white guys who don't bro other white guys, and it's not once in a blue moon, it's more like once a week. My sister calls me bro, does that mean I'm somehow obligated to take it from you or that she's disrespecting me? I'm not remotely offended when another black person calls me "nigger", because when black people say that to me, they're referring to a position in society that we both know that we're in. Does that mean I have to take it from you? Because you definitely don't mean the same thing. Also, I don't personally say it because every black person doesn't feel the same way, and I don't have any cause to impose my belief system onto them. > Likewise it would be stupid to say it's ok for girls to call each other bitch or cunt, but not ok for a man to do that because he is a man. I'm not sure why you think that's not disrespectful; telling other people what they should be called and by who.
