[happyascanbe]

ok this has nothing to do with puberty so if it's in that section, sorry..... ok so this offensive thing has started within the summer. ok so i'm a white kid in a town full of mexican people, so half of them are seriously from mexico. soo i told them i was from germany and the word got around, and EVERYONE calls me a nazi at school! like wtf? and like when i was talking to a teacher about it he like laughed! i'm a VERY proud german and i think some of them messed up but the past is the past. and when i walk down the hall they salute me the nazi salute! i cuss them out in german- Bumsen ihr mama wiebchen! hehe not gunna translate... and it doesnt help. whats should i do?

[eman1]

well it sounds like they are just joking, well hopefully. I would tell them to STOP and tell them you aren't a nazi. Try to ignore it and they might stop.

Have you told anyone? I would talk to maybe a counselor or your parents.

so half of them are seriously from mexico.

and the other half ? :)

Anyway cussing them out in German isn't going to help because they're going to end up making fun of you or something.

Cuss them out in spanish then they're going to be all surprised or make fun of immigration or something (that always gets to my fellow mexican community...lol)

If they are referring to you as a nazi because you're german and because of all the Holocaust things that happened.. you could call them drug traffickers (because of the very sad drug war that going on between Mexico and drug cartels)

Proud Mexican American! rememember... if you can't laugh at your own culture, what can you laugh at.

I'm sorry but I couldn't help but ask...
if you know this has NOTHING to do with puberty, and you know it shouldnt go IN puberty, then WHY would you put it IN puberty? It just doesn't make sense in my mind...


On to your actual issue, first thing would be NOT to cuss them out in German. It just makes you more Nazi-ish. Next thing you want to avoid is retaliating against them and throwing out some Mexican epithets. You're outnumbered, its just gonna make it worse (and its rude).
What I would suggest after that is just ignoring it. By the end of next year or beginning of next year definitely, no one will care and you will be much better.

If by next year people are still calling you that, you need to have your parents call the administrators and it will be handled extremely fast I can assure you.

I had this happen to some people in my high-school, including myself, although the school had very few Mexicans. Most of it was jokes because there was a comical reason behind saying it that started in a computers class, but there were a few times when it was used intentionally to be offensive. Cursing them in German or getting physical will get you nowhere because it probably is just feeding into the Nazi view they're casting onto you, so either try to ignore their comments or at least refrain from saying something in German.

[Peace God]

sorry but the best thing you can do is at least pretend that it doesnt bother you...trust me, they all know that you arent a real nazi they're just joking with you

[beedubs]

everyone stereotypes everyone else, its just how the world is

[Jess]

that sucks......tell them to stop or tell your parents.. I have a friend who's of a German decent he's very nice

I got called a nazi when I was younger too because of my german blood - the fact that I'm blonde with blue eyes never helped!
I tried reasoning with them. I tried arguing back. None of it worked half as good as actually ignoring them.
They want a reaction from you. If you stop giving them what they want then it will get better.

[Brighter.Tomorrow]

Seems to me yelling at them in German will just make the 'nazi" even more permanent.
You have a choice of talking to them, or ignoring it like nothing is happening.

i once dated this german guy and since i'm from one of the countries which was once colonised my germany, everyone kept saying that i'm dating the 'enemy' or whatever and i told them to stick it. then i let it slip that i had german blood in me and for a while, i was the 'black nazi' then they quite it 'cause i ignored them... maybe it might work for you. it's the best way, and if it doesn't stop, just tell 'em you ain't comfortable with it.

im partly german and proud. not racist at all, so don't feel bad. everyone is proud of their heritage

Stop giving them a reason to make fun of you as said above you can ignore them because If they get a rise out of you the taunting will only continue. You could always tell an person In authority at your school and they can handle it.

[SafeAuto]

They're just a bunch of trolls trying to get under your skin. If you show that it doesn't bother you to everybody, than eventually the teasing will stop. You know that you are not a nazi, so just make it clear to everybody through tactical cold shoulders.

[staying_alive]

Yeah, definitely stop with the german cussing. Just makes you look more like a nazi, and gives them more to make fun of. Stop retaliating altogether. Ignore them, joke along. Salute them back. They'll either stop, or they'll realize you get the joke and everything will be dandy.

DONT RETALIATE WITH MEXICAN JOKES etc. You're outnumbered and they'll just turn back to the nazi joke. Just ignore them or play along.

where do you live if there that many mexicans?? if i where i fight fire with fire but that might not be the best idea , try not to be botherd by them , or don't give them reason to call you a nazi

el paso texas!

[PainUnreal]

Try to just ignore it and move on. People get a cheap thrill out of making other people feel bad about themselves. Fighting fire with fire will just make it grow. It may be hard, but shut it out and when they see that you aren't phased by anything that they say, they'll probably move on.
PS I enjoy the insult... it made me smile...

[pixie1234]

i think the best thing is to ignore them and not give them a reaction. try reasoning with them maybe? good luck with getting through this :) xx
