YABU, you have not been paying close enough attention

I was called a racist. But that was because I was on mumsnet during the annual racismstravaganza

Somebody referred to me as a racially indeterminate cow... does that count as a racial slur? AIBU to report the offender to the police?

I made derogatory comments about Peter Andre. He is in a minority group of one (Creosotians).

And I'm not sorry

nothing racist has happened to me and/or my husband in the 13 years we've been married. nothing racist has ever happened to our kids and we have lived in a little village among a sea of white faces for 6 years and nobody has ever said or done anything racist or even given any indication of giving a shit that there's a white woman a black man and two mixed race kids living up the road.

We are clearly very very fortunate.

Particularly since I keep reading how racist little white villages are. We must live in the only one that doesn't give a shit.

My DH said I looked pale.

I slapped him and reported the incident to HR at his work.

Trills · 18/11/2011 18:22

YEs, YABU, you should have made something racist happen.

Hmm
LadyBeagleEyes · 18/11/2011 18:23

My ds called me a racist as I don't like Oreo biscuits as opposed to British biscuits. He says I'm anti AmericanHmm

Kladdkaka · 18/11/2011 18:23

Nothing happened to me either.

But that's because I didn't make the doctor's appointment I need because I couldn't face the attitude of the horrible woman who deals with calls and pretends she doesn't understand what I'm saying.

I am no fan of Jack Black and his films, but I think Jack White is brilliant and love the White Stripes

I have reported myself.

Fanjoforthe memories misread your name and thought you were called fanjomo... hey that's an idea!

I no longer allow kids to bring their little blackboards into my house, they have to be white whipe ones or nothing.
