White people, what should we identify as in surveys and other forms.
posted 1 year ago by Mpetey123 1 year ago by Mpetey123 +86 / -0

I used to just check White and that was it. Now I will mark other and list my predominant cultural heritage English and Norwegian. Do you think this is a mistake? Should I be broader and say European heritage? Should I just mark the White box?

I intentionally check Other: American

I use this as a common weapon to start a fight with any of the DEI crowd.

Racially and Ethnically American, and my gender and orientation is Aromantic Demisexual.

It means I'm attracted to people I have emotional connections to. Also known as: not-sluts.

If asked, the Diversity Officer has to prove my self-identification wrong.

Dunno how serious you are about using their bizarre nomenclature correctly but since I like etymology, the greek root a-[thing] is supposed to mean without-[thing].

So aromantic is supposed to mean you feel no romantic connections with anyone, same pattern as asexual or atheist. Linguistically just "romantic" should be the proper opposite, but if you want to use their tard language terms on them "alloromantic demisexual" is what you want. Or you could try "reciproromantic demisexual" as tongue twister way of saying "not a simp".

I think that you're thinking of anromantic rather than aromantic. But it's a good point, alloromantic is probably the one they can go with.

Oh-no anromantic is an even more advanced stage of tard language.

If aromantic is without or apathetic towards romantic feelings. Then anromantic is supposed to be the active loathing of romantic feelings. Aka anti-romantic.

I can only presume they chose not go with their standard template and call it "romophobic" because too many of them related to it, joyless misanthropes they are, and they didn't want to lumped in with the other dirty 'phobes.

That or they were worried that, even though it doesn't quite make sense, it maybe sounded racist against gay Asians saying homophobic.

Noted. I'll have to shift some of that in my notes.
