Is it normal that i think i'm better than most blacks?
I have never spoken AAVE (African American vernacular English), and I always have spoken standard American English. People throughout elementary, middle, and high schools have said," You talk like a white girl" and similar things.
The way I dress as well. I dress in USA polo assn, Aeropostale, American Eagle, Hollister, Ecko unltd, etc. I don't too much about the stereotype of how white people dress, but they'd make fun of me for this too.
And the last thing is how I act. I'm not ghetto or ratchet at all. I'm very quiet. Peers would call me dumb and retarded for being quiet. I guess because quiet used to mean dumb, and idiots still believe so. Not being ghetto like the others= acting white somehow.
Either way, I have let it get to me, because when I would ask people about this, they'd say I'm not like the others and that I'm better. They say I can get a better job and get even further in life than someone else who doesn't act good.
TL;DR: I apparently act, dress, and talk white. Since I was in elementary, middle, and high schools, people would say that. I believe I'm better than most black people because of this, since people inadvertently told me that is so.
