    Default Why do white guys try to talk like black people when yall around us?

    90% of the time i won't say anything because i don't want to just interrupt a conversation with a awkard moment.On the inside my blood is boiling though why do white dudes try so hard to fit in around black people sometimes?Example im with all black people and 1 white guy talking about sports.Out of nowhere this white dude keeps saying "that maaaaa fuka" "he got 3 rings that maaaa fuka is the best."This white bch is going out of his way to emphasize the MA trying to sound black i almost snapped his white fuking neck.


    im not racist at all just had to rant because i dont want to snap on my dawg for trying to fit in.

    Why does that upset you if he is just trying to fit in?

    I say "mf" all the time btw, and I'm white, that phrase isn't exclusive to brothas

    I don't pronounce it "maaaaa fuka" though

    Same reason black guys try to talk like white people when interviewing for a job they really want. We're trying to impress by fitting in.

    If you have this attitude at 13 years old, then you're bound to just be another black man in jail one day when you grow up.

    That isn't talking white, that is talking normal. A black man wouldn't interview with a black business owner with "yo I'm tryin to work wit you and shit dawg"... Unless your interviewing with Suge Knight or something

    It's 3 different ways to say mf
    .motherfuker(the way most white ppl say it)
    .muthafuka(the way most play ppl say it)
    and maaaaaaaa fuka (the way this white mf was saying it)

    At its core, I think it's natural to attempt to align one's form of communication with whoever they may be communicating. Unfortunately, some may struggle with the subtlety associated with such assimilation.

    I believe my speech patterns differ from chatting with students, to staff meetings, to being a player on a basketball court, to being a coach on a basketball court, to just chatting amongst friends. I think it must be about access and acceptance.

    That said, I've never come close to trying to pull off anything similar to the example in the original post.

    Take it as a compliment that they are trying to impress you by associating with you in a way they believe will endear themselves to you. Everybody act fake sometimes, you do too. People only act fake in order to impress others. Eg. Ppl try to put the version of themselves the believe is the most attractive

    Or black culture has influenced them so much they try to imitate it.

    Either way it is a compliment. It's at worst misguided.
    I have been on both sides of a job interview and basically everybody is acting during it. But they are doing so because they sincerely want to be part of the company.

    Edit: if you think about it its even more of a compliment.
    Its not like he is a politician that needs your vote.
    Its not like you're a hot chick he is trying to ****
    its not like you have a job to offer him.
