I have just been booted from an MSN community for being ANTI racist!!! I wouldn't mind but it wasn't exactly a support group for members of the master race, I can see that I wouldn't blend into that sort of group. But it was a group for people looking for a descreet affair! You would have thought they would be a little more loving. 
I came across this group when I was bored and browsing and thought I would take a peek. (As you do)
I imagined it would be a bit sleazy but definitely more interesting than an evening of reality T.V. so I applied to join. ..... I got through the vetting process with ease, saying that I was a married woman looking for "more".
Once inside, I was amazed to find that the virtual place was filled to the brim with horny Daily Mail readers ready to get down and dirty at a Manchester 'meet'. I imagined a cross between a beano and orgy ..... bald. boozy, bank clerks with their bleached blonde, bakery assistant counterparts.
Their imagination knew no bounds as they invented new ways to escape from their wives/husbands for steamy afternoons/evenings of middle aged passion. (Not a pretty sight 
) Bingo was a favourite excuse for Sunday sex sessions. BINGO! (Who would not guess there was something seriously wrong if their partner was going to Bingo on a Sunday evening?)
They seemed a somewhat sad, but safe, bunch until the racist came on the scene, a man who made his feelings about immigration clear, using language that reminded me of old Enoch. The man was obviously deranged, but to my utter amazement his views were defended by someone who had previously come across as a harmless, albeit boring, Buckinghamshire bumbler. "Don't you start Roberto" said I "There is enough of this crap in the real world I can do without hearing it here" ..... Well, the bloke reminded me of a 'Werebear'! (Those cuddly bears that were around in the 80's who's smiley heads and paws turned inside out to reveal fangs and claws) He turned!!!
Roberto, sent me a rage filled, hate infested, racist e-mail telling me what a disgrace I was to my race and my country and then another saying that their "fun loving" group did not want people of the "filthy muslim persuasion" in their midst. (My nan was a Jew!?!) My "anti racist views made me unwelcome" and I found myself out in the cold..... I was expelled from the group! 
It was a sad little band of disloyal mid life crisis suffererers. A bit of light entertainment for me when Eastenders didn't suffice. Nothing! But the events described above chill me to the core.
I am a Londoner, born and hred and I live in a wonderful multi racial part of London that is filled with colour and cultures from across the globe ..... I love it! Roberto reminded me that what I love fills others with fear and rage.
Racism unexpectedly, kicked me in the teeth.
