If not, then we are all frauds here!!!!!!

Well, let me be the idiot and start it rolling.....

I personally dont like when (some) White Women talk about going to Jamaica and hooking up with some Jamiacan men, as if to say that they (the men) are hanging out in Jamaica with their lives on hold, just waiting for them to come down and fall in love.

I dont like that.

Will someone talk to me about it or get upset?
if not, I'll just turn this into a monologue.

I think you know exactly what I am saying........and yes certainly I come to a point in work situations where I do get tired of hitting my head against a brick wall and therfore direct my energies where I believe they will be most productive.......I am also one who looks at the evidence base.....which on here I think speaks for itself..does it not?......I dont need to prove to anyone who I am or what I stand for so If you consider me to be a fraud based on my opinion to a subject then you are entitled to your opinion.....I know who I am and the standards that make me the woman that I am today, so I have nothing to prove to anyone.....I dont believe that being involved or not as the case may be in this debate AT THIS TIME......is any reflection on my character.
