buddhism is pretty awesome as a philosophical tradition.

i don't care about it as a religion. but what i noticed is that every buddhist i know and/or meet talks in that faggy white guy buddhist voice. the philosophy doesn't teach it. the religion doesn't teach it. but all the white people who become buddhists start talking like it. how come?

Never met a Buddhist. I used to know a Hindu dude from Ghana, he didn't talk like a homosexual-american though.

I've edited my quote so as not to offend

I am a practicing Buddhist and don't think I have a "faggy white guy voice"

ever go to a conference or speaker on buddhism? like jack kornfield or someone like that? they have this soft spoken, thoughful cadence to their voice an their voice sounds airy and ethereal. then they ask for questions from the audience and everyone who goes to the mic and asks a question emulates the speakers vocal qualities. it's nauseating and demeaning.

Nevermind. I was going to break your chops, but the first white buddhist I found on YouTube proved your point.

Plus I think that guy probably is a homo, so that is not a good control subject.
