If you live in the western world, it makes sense to want to be white. Way more pros than cons, from a purely logical standpoint.

 

[dispensergoinup]

Worgen ,cuz its cool when they transform and go RAORROR

 

[Escape Goat]

yeah, but christ is that shitty haircut mandatory?

I could wear a hat!

 

[Ezalc]

Not really.

EDIT: What I could have sworn that I was the first to post Louis CK!

 

[Plywood]

Fine, I'll just be a Thundercat.

 

[Vox-Pop]

Always wanted blonde hair. Like her:

 

[captmcblack]

I want to smash ladies from a different race.

I'd love to experience the different cultural mores and/or societal benefits from different races.

But I don't want to be from a different race. Why would I want that?

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I like being racially ambiguous.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Always wanted blonde hair.

I've got blonde hair.

Not all it's cracked up to be.

 

[Jangocube]

Nah

I'm happy with myself.

 

[Sylver]

No, would be very stupid. XD
We, spaniards, are the best.

 

[Jacobi]

I'd like to be a bit thinner but that's about it (80kg)

 

[Miggytronz]

Im happy the way i am. Tan, Mocha Puerto Rican guy that looks like Fat Joe.

 

[Keru_Shiri]

I sometimes wonder what it'd be like if I were full-blooded Arab or full-blooded white American, instead of half of both, but that's about the extant of it.

 

[dr_octagon]

100m or bust

 

[Always-honest]

Nope. Never even crossed my mind.

 

[Zzoram]

Probably not that different. When you're half-white, people don't see you as white, they identify you with your other half.

 

[sooperkool]

I'd like to be taller and thinner, that's about it.

 

[Plywood]

I'd like to be taller and thinner, that's about it.

I wish I was little bit taller,
I wish I was a baller,
I wish I had a girl who looked good
I would call her
etc, etc

 

[snacknuts]

I'll let Louis CK answer this for me.

Came to find this link and quote it.

 

[corporate cheerleader]

No, but I wouldn't mind being white for a couple of days. Could be interesting.

 

[RoadHazard]

Nah, I'm fine.

 

[Zzoram]

This question is also flawed. There are way more reasons to want to be white than to want to be anything else, especially if you live in the western world.

Obviously if you're white, you wouldn't want to be black/arab/etc.

 

[spindashing]

I wish I could be black onetime.

 

[Raiden]

No, but what a strange thought to have. Do people really think about this stuff?

 

[BorkBork]

I'd like to be a Romulan. Strength and intellect of a Vulcan but without their emotional handicap.

A more appropriate answer I could not come up with.

 

[Capitan Futuro]

Race is just a social construct.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

I wish I were Kryptonian

Spoiler

a black kryptonian, seriously though I'm fine being black.

 

[Kayo-kun]

I always wanted to be a teenage mutant ninja turtle since I was a kid.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

No, but what a strange thought to have. Do people really think about this stuff?

Spend a week not being able to move after being in the sun for two hours and tell me if the thought crosses your mind.

 

[Unconditional]

nope. I like who I am.

 

[EatChildren]

I wish I were a Lannister.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Different species perhaps

 

[Rahxephon91]

Sadly, yes I wouldn't mind it. More because I dislike features I've been given. I dislike my hair so I would like to be of any race that has straight hair, it would be better then what I have now. Perhaps being another race would also change my skin, which is very oily and off-putting. I kind of hate being mixed.

But I can't change who I am, so whatever.

 

[Neuromancer]

No, but what a strange thought to have. Do people really think about this stuff?

I'm very curious as to what the Rihanna thread had to do with it the OP coming up with this question.

 

[Raiden]

Spend a week not being able to move after being in the sun for two hours and tell me if the thought crosses your mind.

Lots of it.

 

[Ezalc]

The only thing I wish I had would be blue/green eyes.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

The only thing I wish I had would be blue/green eyes.

I have that! That's something

 

[G-Fex]

I don't know, I like being Japanese,CaucasianEgyptian?

 

[tiff]

did someone say Asian yet

 

[victreeb3l]

no. i love my brown skin and my silky black hair

90% of people dont know what ethnic group i belong to anyways. i get anywhere from southeast asia to south america. its pretty awesome

 

[Throavium]

Wouldn't it be considered racist if a person preferred to be a race other than the race they were born as?

 

[krypt0nian]

I don't know, I like being Japanese,CaucasianEgyptian?

hehe

 

[leadbelly]

I like being racially ambiguous.

Interesting terminology. I guess that is what I am. It's not really apparent where I am from. The reason for that is because I'm mixed race.

 

[bobbychalkers]

I wouldn't change it.

 

[shuri]

Was this thread an excuse to post your pics?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Nothing actually. I really enjoy bei exactly what I am.

 

[GavinGT]

Nope. I'm ok with being sickly white.

I'm personally okay with it too, but I know other people are constantly looking at me.

It's just not worth it to sit out in the sun for hours and hours, only to end up a slightly less pale shade of white. I just don't tan very well. To make matters worse, my brother sits inside all day too, and he's dark enough to be confused with a Mexican.

 

[Anteater]

I want to be all race, like all race and everything combined into me, I'd be the last boss like some of those fighting games.

 

[Zeke]

Nope I'm like being mexican
