In my other blog, My Problem With Feminists, I talked about my issues with some feminists, I think that some (not nearly all,) come across in a way that makes you not want to be a feminist, not want to be a woman. Now, when I talked about my racial issues, I think I have more to add to what I said. I wrote that it upsets me when African American people automatically think that you are mad at them for being black. As I think this over, that has never directly happened to me. I’ve seen it happen many many times, and when I think about where I always see it happen, that’s in the media, which, I know, for the most part is a lie. Now, I think of the possibility of contradicting myself. Is it my right to think of what is going on in someone else’s mind, I have no idea what it must be like to have someone not like you because of the color of your skin. So, I contradict myself in what I wrote about that topic before, because now, I am just more eager to learn about where it all comes from. Racism doesn’t make sense to me, is it fear? Is it just needing something or someone to blame for your own issues? I think that someone being prejudice against someone else for the color of their skin is horrible. And, I am so sorry if I have ever made anyone feel that way. But, I wonder if I have the right to question or explore where it all comes from. I feel that if I wonder about racism, then it automatically comes off to people that I am racist. Does it? I really don’t know.
When it comes to feminism, I am a feminist. I just think that a lot of feminists, (not nearly all,) come across promoting something that they aren’t, hate or rigidness, or the idea that being a feminist means you need to be completely hardcore. I ask you to help me with my questions, for I am not racist, I am not sexist, I am just curious to where this, where evolution, where hate comes from.
