Brothas and Sistahs

3/26/2015

I absolutely love when I talk to older men and women and they address me as little sistah or queen. I love the comradeship. I love the connection it builds. I love the RESPECT! Now in no way am I saying if we as humans do not address one another with pet names we are showing respect. It’s just different. Words can’t really explain it. It’s just an overall feel-good, well feeling!

I personally do not associate the terms brotha and sistah with any specific ethnicity, just a culture. I bring this up, because not too long ago an older Hispanic male addressed me as sister during a conversation. I can recall during our in-depth conversation, about Fresno and the ways of society, a few stares from other people (Black, Asian, and Mexican). At first we took it as they heard our conversation and had an opinion. However, when he addressed them and invited them into our conversation they turned their backs or shook their heads.

Real talk what do you all make of this? How do you feel about these terms? Havre you ever found yourself in a similar situation? How did address it, if at all?
