WHY DO I CARE ABOUT BIRTH ORDER!? I'M AN ONLY CHILD!!!

A FEW WEEKS AGO WE READ AN EXCERPT FROM A BOOK ABOUT BIRTH ORDER IN ENGLISH CLASS. MY TEACHER LOVES TO TALK ABOUT THAT. BUT AS AN ONLY CHILD I WONDERED, "WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS GOT TO DO WITH ME?" I DON'T FIT INTO ANY OF THIS. I AM MY MOTHER'S FIRST AND ONLY CHILD. I'M PRETTY SURE THERE'S NO SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ON THAT!!! BUT WHILE READING THE EXCERPT OUR PROFESSOR GAVE US (BIRTH ORDER AND SIBLING COMPETTION) I FOUND OUT THERE IS SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ABOUT US!!! OUR SCIENTIFIC NAME IS SINGLETONS, WE EXPERIENCE CHILDHOOD WITH NO SIBLING COMPETITION AND NO PARENTAL DISCRIMINATION. THERE IS A QUOTE IN THE READING THAT STATES THAT WERE ARE "...CONSCIENTIOUS AND PARETNAL-IDENTIFIED, AS WELL AS... EXHIBITING ABOVE-AVERAGE LEVELS IN ACHIEVEMENTS" (DUNBAR, 304). I AGREE WITH THIS BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS DONE GOOD IN SCHOOL AND I'VE BEEN ABOVE-AVERAGE IN CERTAIN SUBJECTS. BUT I ALSO KNOW ONLY CHILDREN THAT DO NOT FIT THIS DESCRIPTION. SO NOW I ASK MYSELF "ARE THESE BIRTH ORDER RESEARCH PAPERS REALLY AS ACCURATE AS MY PROFESSOR SAYS?"

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SPANISH GUYS AND BLACK GUYS

I KNOW THIS IS GOING TO PISS OFF A LOT OF SPANISH GUYS AND I JUST WANT TO APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE. I JUST FEEL THE NEED TO EXPRESS HOW EXCITING AND UNIQUE BLACK MEN ARE. A LOT OF SPANISH MEN ARE SEXIESTS AND IMMATURE. THEY ARE ALWAYS FIGHITNG AND COMPLAINING ABOUT WOMEN. BUT BLACK MEN ARE STRONG IN CHARACTER YET LAID'BACK AND NOT SO ARGUMENTIVE. SPANISH MEN CAN BE VERY UNATTENTIVE AND SELFISH. BLACK MEN ARE THE OPPOSITE. THEY'RE ARE ALWAYS THEIR TO HOLD YOU DOWN. THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE AND CAN BE SENSITIVE WHEN IT'S APPROPRIATE. SPANISH GUYS DON'T ALWAYS KNOW HOW TO DO THAT. BLACK MEN ARE ALSO VERY GENEROUS AND CHARMING. MOST SPANISH MEN ONLY DO THAT WHEN THEY WANT SOMETHING IN RETURN. I KNOW THIS SOUNDS A LITTLE HARSH BUT I'M JUST BEING HONEST AND SHARING MY EXPERIENCES. THERE IS MORE TO COME. STAND BY....
