What ethnicity are you?

I'm curious as to the Shroomery's proportional ethnic make-up.
What ethnicity are you?
You may choose only one

Well, this is a depressingly caucasian cross-section of The Shroomery.

Are there any black Shroomerites, seriously?

...Well, the shroomery poll is situated at the very bottom of all the listed categories.  Some of the forums listed above this section can be very enlightening even entertaining I'd say.  Even for myself, I didn't find this section until one of the moderators re-directed one of my polls and suggested it was better suited in this forum.  May be it might help to get the word out that there's a general polling area where surveys are posted that don't quite fit any place else?

We need more 'nvestigations about this lack of diversity in our midst. :wink:

If you're talking about the disparagingly small ratio of female Shroomerites to male Shroomerites, then I'd agree. :tongue:

How true.  In a way the medium with which this discussion takes place also filters out much of the population.  All participants not only have to have access to a computer, but a computer that isn't blocked by software censoring adult content websites, or viewing limitations found at many public libraries. Remember, everyone here is suppose to be above 18y, but the age survey suggests a very large clustering of very young adults.

Yes, there are a few. Moe Howard is black and was an admin back in the day. He doesn't post much anymore.

I think you mean --what race are you-- because ethnicity is the culture that you associate yourself with.

Some of those categories are ethnicity, like hispanic.  Others are race, like caucasian.  This one is good because it mikes race and ethnicity in one category, "Black or African American".  So yea, it is confusing because hispanics are usually a mix of white, black and native.

A lot of black people are scared of things like lsd, mushrooms, and just tripping in general. So maybe thats why there isn't a big representation blacks here. :ohwell:

What makes you think "a lot" of black people are scared of tripping? I'm sure a lot of white people are less than eager to drop acid or shrooms as well, and I don't see why there would be much of a discrepancy between the two groups. :strokebeard:

I lived in the "ghetto" for most of my life, and I can tell you, from my experience, (generally speaking) "ghettos" aren't very fond of 'shrooms, or any hallucinogens for that matter. Whether or not they are afraid of them, though, I don't know. I would assume some are and some aren't, just like any group of people.

Because I lived in Memphis for years and the blacks at the car lot I worked at would always be like "Fucking crazy ass white guy, there's no way I'm gonna eat acid or mushrooms, I don't wanna see shit floating around and shit", and then they would finish smoking their blunt. Seemed to be the general consensus. How many times have you went to the ghetto to pick up shrooms or lucy? Never. And iff you did, I know you got ripped off. :lol:

Thus my reason for thinking blacks are usually scared of hallucinations. They told me so.
