If anything I'd be a homeGIRL. And no apologies necessary for your weird and very incorrect assumptions. Have you ever seen a latino/a in California, dear? Or know anything of their culture? Or are you just concerned with the African Americans? Perhaps that's the problem..... At any rate, no apologies are needed.

Edit to add:

If you knew anything of, in this case, the Hispanic culture, you'd know that "homeboy" "homegirl" is not offensive. But you carry on in your quest to show that you know something (anything?) I know what I know and you're so very wrong on so very many levels.

Personally I blame Syllk entirely. I bet he even put good old Nia up to her rant too.
I'm as good a scapegoat as the next guy.

I'm flattered. You got up that earlier to respond to my post. Really, you should get more sleep, then you wouldn't be so snippy or offensive to begin with.

While you're at it read your original post and get over yourself.

I was checking out the urban dictionary, here's some of the definitions of 'homie':

slang term used to refer to someone who you are good friends with.
usually used by white people.


me= "hey homie, what's up?"
response = "ur white"
Little guys you can buy in vending machines .. like those little ones in grocery stores. You can get hookers, cops, guys with boomboxes ... hilarious


I went to the grocery store and came home with two homies
A term that now refers to a close friend. Historically, it was once used to called friends who would come to your house and smoke some weed. Hence, your "homie."


Wassup homie?! Let's pimp some ho's.
A term to use if you gangbanging in a blood set you call your niggas homeys to identify you down with bloods


Razor x: wut up homey who you be?
Blaze-Haze: im down homey gshine set!
Razor x: brat homey
American 'wannabe' gangster slang translating to 'person in my gang' or 'gang member'. Also a word that no other country except America will use thats why we cringe when we hear it in the movies/TV.


I'm hanging with my homeys/homies.

They might be reffering to you as a plastic toy....

There's a bunch of other amusing slang terms at http://www.urbandictionary.com/
