Topic: Dutch confused why it might be offensive to call Rihanna the "ultimate niggabitch"

"She has street cred, she has a ghetto ass and she has a golden throat. Rihanna, the good girl gone bad, is the ultimate niggabitch and displays that gladly, and for her that means: what's on can come off. If that means she'll be on stage half naked, then so be it. But Dutch winters aren't like Jamaican ones, so pick a clothing style in which your daughter can resist minus ten. No to the big sunglasses and the pornheels, and yes to the tiger print, pink shizzle and everything that glitters. Now let's hope she won't beat anybody up at daycare."

After being bombarded with hundreds of angry emails, Jackie’s Hoeke took to Facebook to write: “The title of the article was intended as a joke.” Explains Dana Saxon, an American lawyer and graduate student living in Amsterdam who has written extensively on racism in Holland: “The use of the words ‘nigga’ and ‘bitch’ to describe a black woman would normally go unnoticed or be deemed meaningless, with most Dutch people assuming that anyone who takes offense is too sensitive. And this explains the editor’s initial response to the complaints, annoyed that people were unable to [see the humor].”

I hope u can read english, because your magazine is a poor representation of the evolution of human rights! I find you disrespectful, and rather desperate!! You ran out of legit, civilized information to print! There are 1000's of Dutch girls who would love to be recognized for their contributions to your country, you could have given them an article. Instead, u paid to print one degrading an entire race! That's your contribution to this world! To encourage segregation, to mislead the future leaders to act in the past! You put two words together, with the intent of abasement, that made no sense..."NIGGA BITCH"?!....Well with all respect, on behalf of my race, here are my two words for you...FUCK YOU!!!
