I attend a predominantly black gym in my neighborhood, and sometimes I run into the same problem. It used to bother me, but now I'm ok. Once I've spoken to you, I've done my part. If big boy doesn't want to acknowledge your presence, screw him. I wouldn't let one negative experience impact how I interact with others. I hope you feel better.

You are right. Whether it is at the gym, the grocery store, no matter where, it is like we can't speak to each other. I have to admit though, I am a bit shocked since you guys do go to a predominately white gym that he did not speak.

This may have been an isolated incident but it does beg the question "Are we trained as black men not to speak or be stoic in nature?"

Living in London, it seems like everyone is pig ignorant, regardless of race or sex. Good manners are a rare joy to behold.

One thing I will say, however, is that I encounter every conceivable type of person in my day job, and I've observed this:

1) White women are the rudest, most obnoxious of any group.

2) Young black men (black British/Caribbean/Caribbean descent - not African) are the most polite, regardless of apparent economic status...

Interesting. I get frustrated by the way in which we African Americans sometimes treat each other. Maybe its self hatred or just plain lack of civility. Sad.

My computers acting all hoodlike and not allowing me to listen. Its probably the filters preventing me from listening to your x-rated bs. lol
