This sounds like ignoring the fact that there are common feature sets associated with various ethnicities. Mentioning uncommon traits among those groups seems irrelevant since it wouldn't be associated with the ethnic traits of the group. I'm sure just about every eye color or hair color has appeared in just about any ethnic group, but when they are uncommon like the ones you mentioned, the uncommon traits won't throw away every understanding and association of the ethnic groups with their common physical features. That wouldn't make sense.



Those aren't mutually exclusive as your wording implies. Quite the opposite. You can tell the difference between an Asian person, black person, Middle Eastern person, white person, etc., based on common physical features. Race and ethnicity do have associations with physical features and appearance. We as people can recognize the distinctions based on the common features of the ethnic group, and that part is okay.

I'm feeling like people aren't maybe sure what racist means. It isn't simply everything that is associated with race, that's for sure.



I never forget these boots.

Well, I would say that's not always the case. In any case I dare say race and ethnicity are social constructs.

I don't see him often -- he was who I was meeting for the first time this weekend, as he lives in another state. That helps, I suppose. But I dunno. The challenge I guess will be finding the right balance between distance and closeness. I need to protect my heart from hurt but retain his spot in it as a dear friend. I wouldn't give up his friendship for anything.

In the end, I guess all I can do is work through it.

Sorry for the late reply.

Don't apologize, please The guys have shared their experiences, so I'll try to be as short as possible. I'll just say that the distance could prove to be a blessing in disguise for you. You'll be OK, I'm sure of it.

My grandpa started to get grey/white hair (on his head, I mean) when he was around twenty-four so it's not like it's a sign that you are very old. It's just low pigmentation causing it as far as I know.

Just finished rewatching Top Gun, it's been too long. I forgot how ridiculously attractive Tom Cruise was in this movie. And of course, there's the volleyball scene.

Jesus Christ.

Yeah but then you remember what a nut job Cruise is and can't spank it to that. Plus Val was in way better shape (and was Madmartigan which beats anything Cruise has done)

I never found Val Kilmer attractive. Don't know why.

all of you freaking bout one gray hair while I have thousands on my 23-year old scalp, seriously, it's almost like I have gray highlights ;/

Embrace it. They make you look more distinguished.

on, near, someone elses.

 

[Vazra]

I have the solution. Bleach the fuck out of your hair.

 

[Rayis]

silver crotch should be a thing if it isn't already.

Embrace it. They make you look more distinguished.

I guess that would work for attractive people, not for me though ;A;

 

[Henchmen21]

on, near, someone elses.

Yes, No, and I wish in that order

It's pretty hot when young guys have gray hair.

 

[Hours Left]

Yes it is.

Attractive men (young or old) with grey/salt & pepper hair? SEX.

 

[Kevyt]

It is!

Would Legolas' hair be considered blonde or white? I can swear it changes from a light blonde to white from movie to movie.

Blonde.

I think movie white balance throws it off.

Something about Cruise irks me. I was okay with him in middle school, but that didn't last long at all. I didn't get Kilmer either. I see why I'm supposed to like him in theory, but something has never clicked.

But the Madmartigan point stands. I haven't seen Willow in over a decade. Time to remedy that.

(And white/gray hair rocks. Embrace it!)

Now this is grey hair (with black) and it looks cool:

Balding is one of my biggest fears. Grey is hot, and some people can rock bald, but not me.

Thankfully Penn State are well on their way to solving the mysteries of balding.

GayGAF, you guys are seriously the best.

I love the above post. Too often I hear 'oh well you can never be friends it's all doomed cut them out of your life' and I'm like I'm not throwing away valuable relationships just because they become a little complicated, you know?

Right? If the advice was "oh just cut them out of your life" there wouldn't be enough lols in the world to respond with. Not the slightest fucking chance of even considering it.

Crushing on a friend is seriously the worst. I had very strong feelings for several of my friends in high school, and then especially one of them during college when we shared a room. It was a situation in which distancing myself from him was not really possible considering we lived together (and shared a room no less) which just made it all the harder for me. I was a wreck emotionally because I knew there was no way it would ever happen (he's straight). It's been several years since then and he's still my best friend and I don't really have those intense feelings for him anymore thankfully. I won't say there's still not a little twinge of jealousy or sadness every now and again when I think of how amazing of a person he is (and very attractive lol), but I'm in a much better place now than I was back then.

I've been in this exact situation before, to the point where I even moved cross-country in order to have more of a chance at us being together. You're going to struggle with it for a while, no doubt -- all the feelings of "what if we..." and "maybe I could..." but time wears down the rough, complicated edges and, assuming he's also interested in maintaining the friendship, you'll eventually wake up one morning and not be shackled by it (the longing) in the slightest and instead just be happy that you have such a good friend.

In my case, he and I are still close, visit each other on occasion, etc... We're both in relationships of our own now and it's not awkward or painful or unusual for either of us. So yeah, just relax and try to let life take its course. You'll be much more content in the end.

Don't apologize, please The guys have shared their experiences, so I'll try to be as short as possible. I'll just say that the distance could prove to be a blessing in disguise for you. You'll be OK, I'm sure of it.

Thanks so much, guys. This helps give me some much needed perspective, and hope I'll be able to work through these feelings and hold on to him as a dear friend. Got a long road ahead, but at least I know it's possible. That makes it easier.

Good man.
