it's not just the sims , it's real life of racisim around the world today, people are being treat because of skin color, I remember my first incounter wit a racist person.It was the 80's, I was 7 yrs old.
NOTE: Anyone who read this, come forward and share your heart.
Dude, I am very sorry to hear of this, and very sorry to know of that happening in the 80's. I was a child of the 60's, and started school at the tail end of the "Jim Crow" era. I remember my best friend at the time was a black boy who appointed himself my protector because bigger kids were always picking on me and it made him upset to see anyone get picked on. Anyway, the reason I bring this up, is because of the water fountains in school. They always had two, side by side, the cheap ceramic kind, and the metal one with the built-in cooler and the colder water. We'd get a drink from the fountains, and he always drink from the ceramic one. I asked him one day why he didn't drink from the other fountain with the colder water and he said because he wasn't allowed to. I was confused, and asking him who told him he wasn't allowed. He told me someday I would understand. By the time I "understood," I was in another school across the state after my folks moved, and I had lost contact with my friend. But I've never forgotten how sad he looked when he told me things like that. Or how he smiled when I treated him like the good friend that he was.

This thread is sliding off topic, and unfortunately, my post now isn't about to help.
Simdude, you have not been personally attacked by anyone in this thread and you need to chill out. You also need to apologize for your completely unwarranted attack on the moderator Paden Panther and for your choice of language. This is not the adult site and even if it were, people behave there with civility and courtesy and the same is not only expected here, it is required.

Hi, there! Just another choir member here, but I can definitely relate. These things happen when you get outside someone's "norms" - their definitions of the world. The thing about the internet is it opens up windows to new things that you never knew about before. Unfortunately, they'll sell an internet connection to anyone, even if the small-minded petty person isn't ready for the opportunity to play nice with the rest of the world.
I'm a moderator and creator at Simmergirl.com. We make feminine things to turn male sims into female sims and let male sims live feminine lives. You couldn't imagine the disgusting posts I've seen attacking our site; the outright maliciousness. If I bothered to reply to these persons, I would tell them that nobody forced them to come to our site. Nobody twisted their arm. Instead, as a moderator, I take great pleasure in deleting their threads and/or posts, banning them, and deleting their accounts. I have no patience for trolls and other small-minded prejudiced creatures.
