P.A.W.G Cultural Appropriation

First, let me explain what cultural appropriation is. Cultural appropriation is the adoption or use of elements of one culture by members of a different culture. In this case, the use of the acronym p.a.w.g. The acronym p.a.w.g. means phat-ass white girl. Phat is outdated hip hop slang deriving from the 1980's. Hip Hop was created by less privileged groups/minorities at the end of the disco era. Every minority was not a part of hip hop culture and is not today. Also, Hip Hop is not rap but rap is an element of hip hop. Culture is simply the beliefs, ideas, traditions, speech, and material objects associated with a particular group of people. Appropriation is the illegal, unfair, or unjust taking of something that doesn't belong to you. Often, used to strip the identity of another culture. Therefore, the escorts on this site who use the acronym p.a.w.g. are attempting to appropriate culture while unfairly discriminating against the same culture they appropriate with the NBA rule. Any thoughts?

Most of the stuff in today's culture isn't worth appropriating.

I sincerely hope you are intentionally using hyperbole in your post....

Can't argue with that. And in today's very intertwined virtual world, it happens all the time and across all geographic and social/ethnic borders. Well, maybe not so quickly in North Korea or Iran, but in most the world.

OK, but not sure what your point is here. You might claim "phat" is an "outdated term", but it is still used--so has it been assimilated into more general speech just as terms like "ping pong", "radar", and "band-aid" are far more generally used (and their meanings modified) from the original specific brand-name meanings? That is the evolution of language, not something "evil".

Culture is simply the beliefs, ideas, traditions, speech, and material objects associated with a particular group of people. Appropriation is the illegal, unfair, or unjust taking of something that doesn't belong to you. Often, used to strip the identity of another culture.

I suspect you have, in which case YOUR usage of that term is more "illegal" than what you are referencing.

Do you drink hot chocolate and coffee? If you do, then you have culturally appropriated at least one of those unless you are an Aztec-Arab mix. Apples if you are not Chinese? Play music of various genres? Use any of 51% of the words in the English language that were absorbed from other languages?

The fact that a person uses/likes part of a culture but not all of it is neither uncommon nor wrong. At what point is it "appropriation" vs "appreciation of"?

If you have an issue with NBA policies--which I assume you do--there is an entire very long discussion thread on that. To link that discussion point to the natural mixing of language across music/internet/in-person conversations is a really long stretch.

Let me ask you a question in return:
--What if a Black woman from a '80s Hip-Hop cultured family has an NBA policy but uses "p.a.w.g." to describe herself? Is she culturally appropriating her own culture?

Yes. I have a thought and it is for alias to shut up and keep his thoughts to himself.
He’s butt hurt that the girl he wants to see has an NBA policy (am I the only one who finds that acronym ironic as hell?!). So, girls have that policy for one or more of the following reasons: 1) she has a pimp who doesn’t want his property stolen, 2) she’s had a pimp before and is afraid of it happening again, 3) she can’t handle a big black dick (although in my experience, the biggest dicks have been older white guys - do you see what I did there?!), and/or 4) she has a fragile pussy that can’t take a pounding, because the majority of black gentlemen fuck like they’re in the sexual olympics and they’re going for the motherfuckin’ gold.

And as a side note: good lord, the OP has a whole fuck ton of ‘no’ reviews, which means there’s no pleasing this dude.

So, yes. Don't 'appropriate' PAWG, nor Snow Bunny...unless you wanna give me some.

The above replies.. And the OP is why I love this site.. Very entertaining and always funny

As for PAWG...I don't see many women that advertise as PAWG.. That term is OLD so is SNOWBUNNY..Safer to review profiles and look for a Caucasian or White woman with a larger than normal ass if that is you definition of PAWG who will see AA men in your area. And any woman who you consider PAWG with a NBA Policy has her own reason and cannot be generalized in 3 or 4 reasons. I am sure these women have their reason. If it is important to you ASK THEM. BTW AA men do not view sex as "going for the gold".... HAVE A LOVELY DAY

“Cultural Appropriation” is another attempt to turn the Great American Melting Pot into a cage match.

You should file lawsuits against all providers that use the term PAWG and show just how illegal it is. But to be fair, I need your real world name. I want to file suit against you for using appropriation. It is a late Middle English word: from late Latin appropriatio(n-), from appropriare ‘make one's own’ (see appropriate). YOU ARE NOT MIDDLE ENGLISH OR LATIN!!! NOR ARE ANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT CAME UP WITH THE BOGUS CONCEPT OF CULTURAL APPROPRIATION. YOU DOUBLE STOLE! ILLEGAL! NAY DOUBLE ILLEGAL!!!?!
