Ok, not wanting to get into any big debate (that's no doubt been done millions of times before on here)
Just want some insight for an article im writing. Why do some of you use the n word to describe yourselves and your friends.
I have done some research and the under 25 demographic is most prolific in this area! I KNOW it comes from America, but its only started here (in the UK)in the last 5-10 years or so.
It wasn't happening on such a huge scale before that and I'm wondering what happened (apart from the explosion in rap music) that made young British kids adopt such a disgusting trait.
The people i have spoken to (about 300 people)have been from 27 - 16 I couldn't find anyone older (or younger!) who did this.
Is anyone brave enough to come on here and admit they do it, AND give an explanation as to why they find it acceptable, apart from the fact that they are copying americans.....
We disrespect and devalue our OWN sh*t and our own folks in an effort to legitimize ourselves to other people and I find it despicable and lacking in dignity - G Mahogany 2008
