Today, I had to explain to my white girlfriend that dating me doesn't give her the right to call my mother the N-word. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had no idea my mom was low key racist until I told her I was dating a black woman, and she told me that was fine, just as long as I didn’t do something silly like fall in love with her or let her distract me from finding a proper wife. Wow mom, just wow. FML
Today, I had to slowly and very seriously explain to my mother why there is no 'White History Month'. I can't believe we are actually related. FML
Today, I had to explain to my mother that it's inappropriate to hit on my boyfriend when his parents are over for dinner. FML
Today, I had to explain to my grandmother why, "What a nice singing voice! He doesn't sound black at all!" is not a compliment. FML
Today, my son said his first word. It was the N-word. We are white. I need to have a talk with my husband immediately. FML
Today, I introduced my mother to my new girlfriend. My mom made a very nasty comment about her in Spanish, not realizing that my girlfriend teaches Spanish at the local school. FML
Today, my mother yet again went on a long rant about how much of a loser I am as I have "never had boyfriend" and I'm 26. Truth is, I've been in the same relationship for over five years but it "doesn't count because he's black." FML
Today, I had to explain to my girlfriend why being with a girl while being with me is cheating. FML
Today, I was busy going over wedding plans with my fiancé, when my mother called. Apparently, she wants me to "drop the joke" about this "fake engagement", because she was under the impression I was only dating a white guy to piss her and dad off, and was now getting carried away with it. FML
Today, I had to explain to multiple people that even though I'm white, I have no interest in joining a hate group. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Call her mom a cracker and see how she feels about it

Why would she even want to call your mother such a disrespectful word in the first place? Deal breaker for sure.

Kill her.

Woah, your girlfriend is either naive or stupid, either way nip that in the bud now.

My god. She's either incredibly inappropriate and insensitive, or she's trying awkwardly to emulate the satirical "yo nigga bro" kinda thing.

Wow she's incredibly rude!

Wow. That is so disrespectful. How old is she, you would think if you are over the age of 14 you would know better. I hope your mother put her in her place when she said that!

#9 - How ironic. Judging by your username, are YOU a good girl to bring home?

I don't see the irony really #18. And I'm not one to throw around racial slurs, so yes, my girlfriend brought me home to meet the parents.

My jaw actually dropped at this one. Why the hell would she think that would be okay?

Reminds me of that scene in "Clerks 2" in which Randal and Dante have that lively debate on racial slurs. Is your girlfriend "taking it back," OP?

Never mind I posted above comment on another post but it's been removed I guess, not sure why it ended up on this post

Awesome movie! :)

I never understood why black people get upset when called niggers. ****** = black. Black people are black. If you don't judge people by their color and therefore don't see black skin as an inferiority, why would you insist that calling someone black is offensive?
gracehi 33
Actually the term, "******" literally means "illiterate." That's what people used to call black people when most of them were slaves because they were, well, illiterate. The name stuck, and that's why it's offensive. You're thinking of the word, "Negro." Dumb ass.
Evgeny2222 11
The only dumb ass here is you. "******" comes from "niger", which means "black" in Latin.
Evgeny2222 11
I'm not saying that OP's girlfriend wasn't rude, she was, I just don't get it why the "******" word is so censored that it has to be reffered to as the "n-word".
LennyComa 39
Are you actually that dumb, or are you trolling us? I sincerely don't see how you think the term is fine and dandy. Do you call Jews kikes? Down you call white people Cracker? do you call mentally handicapped people spastics? do you call Mexican/Americans wetbacks?...if you do then I hope to **** you never breed.
