Question # 1 I would say to my son "Barry, are you dating black guys?"

I would name my gay son Barry.of course he would say

   "no dad why are you such an asshole?"
to which I would reply "why are you racist? I'll be damned if I've raised a racist"

                 "no dad I am not a racist"

      "good I guess everything is okay then"
[40 minutes of awkward silence]

"Barry"

"yeah dad"

"can you promise me something?"

    "sure whatever"

        "10 years from now when those kids that hit you come out.
 can you promise me not to date them"
 
Question #2 On this one nothing. just wait to see who replies.

Question #3 most likely nothing I tend to be passive in social situations I rarely understand social norms so I don't give my interpretation of events too much weight. 3.2 See that is exactly why I take this tack on things. Wait it out.

Question #4 Laugh, I usually do when people take things seriously. nothing funnier than a dude trying to be an alpha.

Question #5 My prejudices would escape unscathed. 5.2 I would hope my sense of irony would be invoked. 5.3 this is actually one of the things I would muse on when I drove for a living.

Question #6 to be honest I would not bother. It is sometimes sad to know who you are.

Question #7. Sweet Potato and Pecan.
