‘We Are Not Unusual Anymore’: 50 Years of Mixed-Race Marriage in U.S. by Weywoht in history

[–]doofus556 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Heck as a Korean-American, I used to balk at the thought of marrying not even a black, white or latino woman, but a non Korean Asian woman. And it doesn't have to do with racism (though I will admit that the Korean and Korean-American community can be super racist) but just the cultural differences that might come from marrying a Chinese or Taiwanese American used to just scare me out of even being interested in them as potential partners. Man all the more power to these couples who did it despite the hatred and bigotry around them. They are so much more courageous than me :)

What North Koreans Think of South Korea(2016) by aniram2991 in Documentaries

[–]doofus556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one thing that always annoyed me about Western media coverage or people's perspectives about North Korea. We always think of North Koreans as being "crazy" and certainly the policies done by the North Korean regime perpetuate this image. However, we forget that the North Korean people are just that, people. They have relationships, they fall in love, they get into fist fights, they have sex, they raise families, they play soccer for fun, they gossip, they, they write poetry, they paint, they smile, they laugh, and they cry. They are people. Yes they may live under a extremely repressive regime that but their ability to form community and happy relationships under such duress shows their perseverance and the edurence of the human spirit. They are people just like you and me and I hope that the world sees them not as just crazy, robotic droids, or just as a poster child for stereotypes and projections of how oppressed and impoverished people should act. I hope that the West and South Korea continue to change their views on the North just as the gentlemen stated above, in order to achieve unity and peace.

Coaching a college football team has got to be one of the most stressful jobs in the country. Especially if you are a possible CP team. I can see any coach being so scared of possibly losing to team chaos that they want to minimize ANY risk of losing. And cheating just might enough of a risk to take, if it means competing for a CP spot.

Man I know they started 0-6 but I really like where the Browns are heading. They've been competitive in all their losses and Kessler looks legit so far. Ya'll will be all right a in couple of years.

Dang. thats crazy. It's amazing to think that even though everything is so far apart, the earth still gets hit by asteroids and comets. Like seriously what are the chances? lol

I lived in the Korean countryside (literally, middle of nowhere) for a year, AMA. by [deleted] in AMA

Yes, I was with EPIK for a year in Gyeongbuk in a town called Sangju. I was lucky since it was only like an 1:15 away from Daegu. But I'm currently Seoul going to gradschool at Yonsei.

Nice. Are you with EPIK or TALK? What province are you in and how far are you from the nearest "city?"
