The one white American girl turned up her nose and said how "we women have worked too hard and struggled too much for that" and how her mother never did those things for her father. We were just like...who is "we?" LOL. We are not struggling against any and every traditional value just because it may please or benefit men...please.
Agreed and many of us "anglo white" dudes are dating and marrying Indian Hispanic, Black and Asian women because we're tired of the "you owe me" attitude of too many of the anglo white women out there.

Their level of crime was appalling and never fully documented. African-Americans have a very long time to even begin to catch up with White Americans...and likely never will. Not just because more White Americans have gotten it together in the last 60 years or so does that give you and room to talk. Scores of White Americans descend from brazen criminals.
2 things here: 1, we're NOT responsible for what our ancestors did and 2, the Black hood rats are doing things to each other that would make the old KKK sick.

So what is the excuse for the "typical" white behavior?

Since we are using anecdotal information as fact, it happens to be the white people in my office who have the 'issues' (family drama, drug abuse, mental issues, financial problems, legal issues, child molestation allegations, etc.) while everyone else (Black and Hispanic) come from solid backgrounds and live drama-free lives.

White "foolishness" pales in comparison to typical black behavior. And that's a fact.

If you want to talk about the history of bad behavior, you should begin with the African leaders who sold their own people into slavery.

No one said you all were responsible for it, but it is still white American history. For those "whites" so stuck on "black" behavior, remember that at a certain point "whites" in the U.S. were committing atrocities that "blacks" in this place will never equal in measure. Virtually every group of humans has had an unfavorable of history. Not because "yours" may have calmed down in some ways for the moment doesn't mean you have any room to talk.

I started shying away from white girls when it occurred to me that many of them need bs and mayhem in their lives.

No, it doesn't. White criminality went on from hundreds of years. African leaders may have sold slaves, like many other leaders around the world. However, they did not commit the hundreds of years of atrocities that many White Americans did on American soil. Not only slavery but the genocide of Native Americans that they refuse to acknowledge. But yet what to talk about genocide that happens elsewhere. They fool no one but themselves. And they you wonder why the Muslim world laughs at American criticism of their religion and cultures...

Yeah, but we've progressed. It'd be nice if you'd get with the program.
