The Existence of OWD or off white dilemma!

[LightHouse89]

I never heard of that term until I came to this website. Some people think I look white but I always have identified with my nationality first

Whats your nationality?

Yeah, I've seen it here with DesiAmerican, major inferiority complex. Amongst others I've noticed as well.

Of course IRL, I meet plenty of darker Southern Europeans, Middle Easterners and they are proud of their color and heritage and do not feel inferior so it's probably just anthro boards where this is common.

Pretty much it's an inferiority complex that manifest itself in wanting to be closer to the racial ideal in their puny minds. From what I have seen it's mostly a anthroboard phenomenon, but the people with this disorder have the loudest voices and often reflect negatively on the proud of people of their community. Though it exist in real life but not as common, because no one will respect such people who are self-hating.

For example a person who might come from the swarthiest areas of Southern Europe and he looks quite swarthy and can fit in the Middle East would rail on brown people, a meaning less term that has no genetic or phenotypic truth, as brown people have varying different genomes and looks.

It certainly wouldn't have anything to do with those same people being social problems when they immigrate to the swarthiest areas of Southern Europe.

Anyway, how is life as a member of the Five Nations up there in Canada? Oh, right...

also i want to add that we shouldnt act like racial inspectors and make fun of people that they are self-haters if they like whites or want to be accepted with white communities etc. they could have various valid reasons, also it is nothing wrong, i think the term self-hater is too overused, similar as calling a homophobic person a racist or a islamist a racist etc. it is used for various phenomenons and some arent really "self-hating", just because they dont adhere to eurocentric ideals of one drop and coloureds etc. and such, that they need to know their place etc. also it is not self-hating to marry another race or love another culture, like a white marrying a japanese and adopting buddhism etc. some would say it is self-hate but those are just as racist ideals etc. or if a black person thinks he is british etc. thats also not self-hate, self-hate is for example if you hate your skin like michael jackson. if you fall out of racist perceptions of how it should be/eurocentrist where everyone with a bit of black blood needs to identify solely with his black ancestry etc. is not self-hate, also obama said at age 12 he realised that if he communicates his mom race that he is seen as sucking up to whites or such, and that he stopped communicating his moms race etc. thats quiete dumb etc. he has also a right to like white people, his black ancestry doesnt negate his white ancestry etc.

i just dont like people who are sneaky hateful arrogant etc. and attack other people, but to me everyone is free to associate with whom he wants and i respect self-declaration and perception etc. just for example i dont like people like desiamerican who are hateful to another group to validate his own self

No its something different because they also scapegoat the dark people of their own ethnicity as it clearly stated in the OP, and this true of Middle Easterners not all only those who have this form of disorder, don't put words in my mouth or alter what was said in the OP, nor I wrote it as I have stated.

I didn't bother to read all of what you wrote, Chief PostFakeEthnicityInProfile. I've read this story before. You talk about it more than Wadaad but at least Wadaad named names. I think you should be masculine (for once) and name those people who suffer from OWD so they can provide a defense or throw themselves at the mercy of the court.

I blame Hollywood. I don't want foreign people to view themselves as my people. I hate it when I see south American natives dying their hair blonde. Its just odd to me. I have met people with middle eastern ancestry who do the same thing.

There are many examples, no I don't like naming names they have already embarrassed themselves enough btw if you want to see my ethnicity go to my 23andme thread, gedmatch, and McDonald results they are all here for everyone to see. My ethnicity has nothing to do with it. No I don't.
