Am I too White?

[WorldCritic]

I'd just say you like classical music, not sure how that makes you white.

Just recently, I bought out the entire collection of Beethoven's music (in terms of 'Data', it would have to be around 18 GB's of MP3's I guess) and have most of them on my Phone to listen to while taking the Metro.

The thing is, I'm a 22 year old guy and straight. Yet after some of my friends finding out my music consisted mainly of violins and Piano's, they came to the logical conclusion that I am either very very 'Metrosexual', and when they found out it was a classical composer, they came to the new theory that I am 'White as white can be'.

So my question: Am I really 'too white'? Please note all responses will be recorded for QA.

Your friends sound very small minded and fond of following trends and sterotypes or "pigeon holing" people. Eitherway they sound stupid, literally as in the "I wouldnt go on a TV quiz show with you for fear of embarressment" stupid.

Im 23 and Hetro as well, I listen to Classical music and I'm not "white as white" (even though I am caucasion for the sake of PC) I listen to R'n'B, hip hop and reggaeton but the only times I use hood slang and spanish slang is when Im speaking in an ironic sense or just feeling light hearted.

I listen to pretty much the entire spectrum of music, Im highly educated, play videogames, love movies like The matrix, V for Vendetta and speak with an accent most people call "Posh British" despite being south afriucan born. By all means and rights I should be walking around with thick ass lenses on my glasses, wearing corduroy pants and a checked shirt with over the shoulder snap bracers. I do not.

Just because you like one particular thing a lot doesn't make you a sterotype and it sure as hell shouldnt result in small minded ignorant comments from your "friends".

Next time they bring up "oh you like classical music" respond by saying, "I wouldnt expect YOU to appreciate it," or something equally as patronising because frankly your friends sound like douchebags.

Maybe not TOO white, but definitely TOO racist.

I don't see conection between the two neither. I love classic music as well btw. Even though I prefer to vary it with metal and other genres. =)
But keep it on!

So you do see a connection?

Double negatives are a huge pet peeve of mine.

OT: I don't see the correlation between classical music and being white.

Do you perhaps spend a lot of time indoors?

[sarcasm]
So do you perhaps wear an awful amount of tweed, sweater vests, brown, leather shoes and play alot of golf?

Do you drive a Volvo?

Do you live in the suburbs and insure everything you own compulsively (including your pet)?

Do you put mayonaise on everything?

Are you terrible at both running fast and jumping high?

Do you report everything to the police?

If you do all of these things then you're too white.
