My therapist kept calling me black today because it's apparently the politically correct way to address someone who isn't white?


Honey, I know I'm not white but I ain't black either.

YOUR'E NOT HELPING WITH THE IDENTITY CRISIS

If you’re not white, you’re black. Sorry every other race. 🤷‍♀️

I know the nhs has been adapting critical race theory in some of its training for therapists recently. It was true at least in the Tavistok which was closed down. But I imagine it's in other places.

They probably got told to do that but I think it's weird and alienating for clients and bad for client therapist rapport 🤨

@Ryannnnnn She's not from the NHS. She's Independent. I get her reasoning but it felt odd and out of place
Ryannnnnn · 31-35, M
@NickiHijab Yeah..I wouldn't bring up race unless they specifically want to talk about it. Just seems weird.

... that's not politically correct that's the exact opposite of politically correct.
Last time I went to jail they marked me down as white

I mean look at me.. yeah.. I was confused too 😅
@ChiefWalksWith40oz Time to hit the tanning booth, so they don't get confused.

I think we should do it by DNA everybody is what they are if you're black then you're black if you're white and you're white if you're Chinese or Chinese it doesn't make any difference
but you can't fool science and you can't fool God

If you are wearing a hijab, there’s no way to know you’re black or white.
NickiHijab · F
@Torn60 what race are people with hijabs?

Political correctness is stupidly hilarious at times!

Your therapist definitely haven't see asians yet.

Neither white nor black, but definitely gorgeous.
AndysLoft · 56-60, M
I see, how fascinating.
Because you can only be black or white?
NickiHijab · F
@InOtterWords it was dumb. She then asked me what I identify myself as far as colour and I say brown. She apologises and claims she may naturally switch to "black" throughout the session because it's how it's referenced in research and her training.

I'm literally doing training rn and never seen that.
WaryWitchWandering · 36-40, F
@NickiHijab Ignorant.
@NickiHijab that is just lazy

No other word for it
MartinTheFirst · 22-25, M
Sounds like it's time to shop for a new therapist.
NickiHijab · F
@LordShadowfire already have. This was 8 months ago
@NickiHijab I get confused sometimes. Posts from long ago pop up because somebody responds.
This is the funniest thing I've heard since I learned that Fox News thought there were multiple Mexican countries.
