[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad is a West Virginian. It's a beautiful state. I went to WVU and had the time of my life (and have a great career now).

But but but....for many years I've tried to defend it and have finally made peace with the fact that the stereotypes and negative impressions are mostly true. MTV's Buckwild was the last straw for me.[/quote]

I'm in an interacial marriage.  I would love to visit WV as I've heard some parts are truly beautiful, but I fear going there with my family. [/quote]

*sigh* WV is not a racist place. There are lots of AAs, Hispanics and even Asians in WV.[/quote]

So, if we went to the Appalachia we wouldn't get stared at, have racist comments thrown at us?[/quote]

White (non racist) person here: I wouldn't travel to WV if I were not white. They are very racist still. I hear racist phrases all the time that I've never heard in VA/DC. [/quote]

I'm from WV and grew up in WV.  Some of the most racist slang terms I heard weren't until i moved out of WV when I was 24 yo and they were coming from my [b]Pittsburgh boyfriend.[/b]  [/quote]

Then again, you were the type to date said boyfriend.[/quote]

shittsburgh is in wv pretty much[/quote]

NP.  Pretty sure it's part of PA, actually.[/quote]
