i wonder if he had been famous would white father react this way? thoughs?

seriously

homeboy coulda been polite and as cool as can be

bottom line is he's black and she's white:smt018


no one here should feel as if they have to work extra hard, to impress parents because they're white:smt015

But basic manners is a must. You don't walk around a man's home barefoot and you don't talk to him like he's one of your buddies. Must of lost his damn mind.

You're missing the point. The point of the scene is-

1. How some ppl race/ethnicity can be ambiguous (the kid could have passed as a middle eastern, a dark pakistani, a dark yellow hispanic, a dark jew)- hence the question "what is your back ground?"

2. Folks are willing to do business with you and your kind as long as you don't date their daughter (basically Tony's comment was I am willing to do business with bunch of egg plants as long as it makes me money but aint no way in hell my daughter is going to be touched by a mooley).

i aint suprised alot of bm ive spoken to dont mess with italian women, they say the fathers are complete assholes

But Italian men have NO problem dating bw. I bet those same fathers wouldn't mind their son bringing home a bw and getting with bw too.

EXACTLY, ive noticed italian women bring this up aswell, when it comes to the daughters its a different set of rules

Thats the difference between Italian families in America and more WASPish families. WASPS mostly keep their racist comments to themselves or behind closed doors. Italians wear their racism proudly. Like it's a badge of honor to be that ignorant. It's clearly shown in that scene.
 
like any of that would have mattered

tony's a racist, mafioso prick

who cares
:p

LOL - you're both right. Tony wouldn't have let Meadow screw a black man with a PhD and $10 million in the bank, but I'm not into running around someone's house unshod and acting like he's my pal when I don't even know him, either. But that's just me. :cool:
 
I once dated a (lovely) Sicilian girl. Her mother had a big issue with me being black/Hispanic. They did not dare tell the father!
