First of all i need to tell you that i am definetly a Turkish as you can read on my profil page and i am one who cant see the difference between people. I also like chatting and one day i met one of my friend while chatting. He is called anarchotaurus. He was considering his self as a Gabonese with a smart reason. And his behaves gave me an ideo about a test.

The test was simple and appliable here. I'd consider my self from different countries, such as Turkey, African, Asian and North Europian.

I started to seek for people firstly i started to say i am from Turkey as what actually i am. I met 8 girls and wanted their msn adress, only 3 of them gave me the adress.

For the test i started to behave a little bit strange to all girls i've met here. I sent some erotic pictures and asking about some sexuel ideas bla bla. 3 girls striked me out :) Honestly i thought they were right about this behave because i overstepped.

I changed my nick name and started to say i am from Thailand. Many of people whose msn adress i wanted gave me their msn adresses easly.Honestly pople behaved me kind then i thought. But they were usually asking me about my country, shemales and some wierd things. It was ok, because they were  trying to break some stereotypes. I also sent some erotic pictures to these girls, they didnt care so much but when i wrote them second time, they didnt back to me. I tried 3-4 but no response :)

When i strated to say i am a Gabonese, i enjoyed a lot with people. They were asking about how i find internet, electric and questions like those. A few people still talk to me and they are saying i have good english compared them :) I dont know if i should blame them with this but i know many people didnt talked to me after learning i am an African.

If you are new at chat and you want to chat someone never mind how you seem, say you are from North Europe. Everyone behaves you well. I almost got all msn adresses. When i saw that being an Europian works very well, i found people whos msn adress i took and blocked me :) Even they welcome me when i sent some erotic picture and chatting spicy. I dont still want to belive but they also sent me such things. Honestly one of them sent me a great blog based on art porn :)

We have an old comic guy called Nasrettin Hoca. as he said; "Ye Kürküm ye" ( it has same meaning "fine feathers make fine birds")

Now i am thinking that maybe i must close this account, and create a new one which prove i am from Noth Europe :)

Thanks for reading

Yes i agree about hardness of breaking stereotypes but there is nothing imposibble for us too :)

anarchotaurus

Honestly i dont know why i chose such a title for this post. Maybe i wanted people think about human equality. 

And i tried to explain more then racism. Maybe i chose a wrong way to tell what i actually think. I am talking about many people choose his/her partner according to his/her richness. Being an IPhone user and Non IPhone user shouldnt say how people we are :)

Though I do not enjoy chatroom for the reasons you perfectly state in your blog. Maybe I shouldn't bother to be exposed. You touch upon a very interesting subject. I wouldn't suggest a title such as "humanism test" for your experiment. It's rather an observation on the prestige of white race that of europe and america.

I totally agree with your observation but is that too different in a local context dear Set_? I mean imagine two turkish person trying to strike a conversation. Location comes as one of the first instruments of conversation-building and it is bound to create an ocean of prejudices. We wouldn't even go so far as to hear the location, we just make assumptions according to facial features and we cross other person off if we think s/he is from an underdeveloped region/city/cultural background. And we have understandable reasons to be so exclusive.

I remember a turkish girl rebuffing me with a message like "I'm sorry I didn't notice you were turkish so let's not write messages to each other" Many people are seeking a shortcut to better society through relationship, marriage etc... Increasing success stories in this scenario inspires newcomers and there you go... I think rooting for a settlement in northern europe or any other social welfare environment through an online english learning environment is a pathetic attempt to say the least, but they have every right to try their chance.

Hello, i cant write much to my blog because of my works and my mind is usually as busyas cant write something:)  i think you already know what i mean.

 

Religion may seems so innocent  to you all. it is normal because priests, imams, rabbis, budists always talk about love inside humanbeing. they makes you belive you are nothing if you dont belive in anything because we have to be here for complete a mission such as praying or begging to god for not being burned by him .

 

If you think, you can prove god exists or not exist, you are wrong. This is really serious topic that must be known well. it is not easy to prove something which you cant see by naked eyes or via some tools. You can say that  "But you dont belive what you can even prove" the answer i will give, what should i be?  muslim?, chirstian?, jewish? or buddist ?  or i have never seen a miracle. as you knew, miracles can belong to god only. if i see, i will start to belive in.

 Many people who belive in god and a member of a religion think he is lucky because he is on right way even though he is there by only chance. Those people alaways try to prove (for instanse he is a chirstian)  Christianity is the right way and people have to belive this if they dont want to be burned in the hell.If those people should have been born in middle east they will defend islam, in india hinduism, in tuva shamanism. it is about having a washed brain.

i like searching and watching some decumentry film on internet.I found a video which says i am right about washed brained people.

People speak according to their experiences, the environment and society influences are the basis for the ideology of everyone.

I think "the family is the basement to success or fail a society of a country"
 

In Mexico we have a saying:
"Everyone talks as his/her experiences at the party", this means that everyone has their own point of view abt different topics.

On the other hand, I know some people are not comfortable with certain topics or certain comments from others. I hope I never to offend anyone with my "personal" point of view.


I can only say:  "personally" I do not need to show to any human being my beliefs nor to convince anybody of my own convictions.
So, if others are Orthodox, Catholic, Christian or otherwise, is their own decision.
My daughter is atheist and i respect her point of view too.

Each head has a complete world inside. And each world is must be very respectable.

i was searching something in internet and i found this poll :) 

 Results

Country      % who agree

Italy 50
Turkey 43
Canada 36

Honestly, i dont think that results reflects truth espesially in Turkey. Yes many people are atheis, agnostic, and careless about religion but if it is real, i am ready to accept :) 

Maybe Turkey should be %50 according to me  :)

I guess it depends how cynical you are about human nature.  If humans are bad, then religion is bad, since religion is ultimately human.  

I like to think people are basically good, so religion, even false religion, is a force for good as well, overall.  

 

Where religion is really bad is in enforcing dogmatism.  Whether it be religious fanatics in the Ottoman Empire that prevented the adoption of the printing press as a decadent infidel innovation (to take an example you might be aware of, Set), Communist fanatics in the USSR doing ruthless purges of kossaks (aka any peasant with more than dirt to his name), or any other oppression that stems from a difference in ideas, intolerance and dogmatism are greatly responsible.   This is why freedom of conscience, speech, and belief are so important.  We need to respect people's rights to be wrong.

I think this poll was in english so just failed to represent the opinion of the majority Laughing Realistically speaking, the rate should have been over %90 just as in saudi Laughing Besides, this has not so much to do with your adherence to religion I suppose. If you'd pick my opinion, I would also agree that religion is a force for good taking into account the vast majority of the society. There is a considerable mass of people who can not be a "good" person without fearing the tales of hell.

On the other hand, the "good" religion offers is extremely relative especially in gender issues. I think it has both good and bad aspects. Looking from the bright side, religion can be a controlling mechanism over perverts - which we know them making a great percentage of turkish male population - injecting fear into the rapist mentality. Though it is reasonable then to argue that why this is not the case in Egypt where grouping of women is a cultural norm?

The dark side is the religious justification of disrespect for women who choose to wear whatever they like. Yet it is not the right way to draw general conclusion from a broad category of religion. Coz when we speak of disrespect for women attributing it to religious teachings, I think we speak of islam which we make our observations upon.

Anyway... This is a deep subjects. No matter how hard we try to elaborate as much aspects as possible, there will always be a majority to neglect what rational arguments say and place mottos and dogmatic ideas instead.
