[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [qb] In the U.S., a "wifebeater" refers to and thin, stained, usually skin-tight tank top undershirt. It derives it's name from the fact that most men who feel it's acceptable to wear a "wifebeater" in public probably are one. As far as the racially neutral comment, I meant drawing people with features of multiple races. I was also being completely sarcastic... so I didn't really think out the logistics of the whole thing. [/qb][/QUOTE]I think the name derives from [i]A Streetcar Named Desire[/i]- the famous movie with Brando wearing one and, of course, beating on his poor wife [i]Stella[/i]. As to racially neutral- they should go ahead and depict the painting's characters as white but with having "mongoloid" features- just to be dicks about it. Yeah. That would make some news. :D Speaking of Arizona jackasses- on the prior page I mentioned extremists like Rand Paul trying to repeal the 14th Amendment- guess what the Arizona legislature is trying to do? That's right- they want to strip the citizenship from children of non-citizen parents (born here). I'd really pay to see the family trees of these assholes- just to question their citizenship rights: [i]none[/i] of them are Native Americans. It'll never pass of course- state law can never supersede the U.S. Constitution. It’s a political ploy aimed at the anti-immigration Right (see Tea-party nuts) in an election year. [/QB][/QUOTE]
