This Dutch Angel Dragon has been Approved by
Stardust03
______________________________________________________________________________
3 of 3 maybe 4 of Thanksgiving Themed Dutchies I made for this Month~
I said I was gonna add rules... But I will later.. Depends on how this one goes..
EDIT 1: I will change the Indian term to Native American when I get home...
EDIT 2: F5! I have changed the submission. I've replaced the "Indian" with Native American to fix my little mistake. I apologize if I had offended you.
I was in no way trying and know that Native Americans isn't really Thanksgiving theme. I was basely going off history of Pilgrims and Indians and the whole theme that Thanksgiving have for these two cultures.
But again I am sorry for the mishap and mess that this design has caused.

How is this racist?
I mean... There is no disrespect in this design...
All the Arch Angels looked over the design and said it was OK.. And that I was good to go...
I'm not being racist or offensive towards Indian culture.. Heck I have Cherokee blood in me...
And Solas said... AngelsNest made an Indian theme DAD and everyone was cool on it..
How is this different?

They did last year. It was quite adorable too! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15065354/ :D
Yeah, she decided to go with the Royal Palm that year. Looks like this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2WieHAnro.....royal+palm.jpg Pretty neat, imo! ^^
I don't mean to sound like an asshole on this but, literally, what makes this one different? AN did a design on the Native Americans. This one is no different. Gorgeous and would look beautiful as a suit. I do not know if this is a joke but stop it. It really hurts people's feelings that worked so hard for a design only to say its racist. There is nothing wrong with it, before you start complaining to Jitter and I on it take a look at AN's design then come back. It's not racist
If you are not native American don't speak about it being racist you make yourself look stupid honestly. Being of native American decent I see no issue with this, but this is my opinion.
So those of you saying it is racist and not ok be sure you have a right to actually speak for the native American side. And there are many things with this type of theme.

SO, because I am not a part of the race, I cannot see anything being racist ever unless it is of my own race? I can't speak up about it being wrong or hurtful?
Really good logic there. So, okay. If some one made an angel dragon called the "N" word, I can't say anything about it, right? Or what about a "mexican themed" angel dragon with a sombrero and moustache? Even though it would be incredibly racist and could be hurtful to some one who saw it?
Sure. You have fun with that.
If people did not stand up for the rights of others, where would we be today? Think about it.

While the term "Indian" is politically incorrect, there's nothing wrong with making a design based on other cultures.
Just like there's nothing wrong with wearing clothing and accessories from other cultures.
And it wouldn't be an "N word" design, it would be an African design.
People make Asian designs all the time and no one seems to care. So why would the Native American culture be any different?
It just seems like a waste of energy to get worked up over something like this.
Live and let live.

You missed the point I was trying to make.
They stated that if I am not a part of the race, I cannot state it is offensive. Such as, if an AD was actually called a racist slur like the "N" word, by their logic I would have no right to say it was racist to call an AD that. Which is just silly.
The fact that this is for Thanksgiving, and is called "indian" is just not okay.
The set up is more stereotyping, like a halloween costume store.
tbh it is more a waste of energy trying to explain /why/ this is wrong, to people who just don't get it.
Also, those of us stating our opinions against this AD don't really seem too "worked up", rather, those opposed seem to be blowing things up.

I am basely going off the Pilgrim and Native American thing that goes on around Thanksgiving. I figured I make something to go with this theme of a idea. As Turkey design would be... To repeatative. Even though that is my next and last design maybe... Sorry that this offended you. As I told another. When I get home I be changing the words from Indian to Native..
Well, it is good that you are being civil about it, and willing to listen to what is being said. >_<
Feelings were not meant to be hurt, so I apologize if I hurt yours.
And you were not meaning to be offensive with the design. I get that. I understand what you were going for, but you should be careful with this sort of thing.
We were just letting you know what was/is off-putting.
Thank you for replying in a kind and mature way. c:

Wow I laughed so hard at that. To me no, you shouldn't find it offensive if it has absolutely nothing to do with you. Most of the people you are defending for you feeling they will find it offensive laugh about it. If they find it disrespectful or offensive let them speak up about it. You have no right to speak up in someone else's place, it does nothing but lead to fights. So yes I'll have fun with realizing people have a right to speak up for themselves and that you should not be speaking for someone else. Everyone hates assumptions and you are assuming someone finds it offensive when in actuality the only ones finding it offensive are those that have nothing to do with that culture.
Yes. No one else could possibly be offended by /anything/ ever unless it is super personal to them.
I am sure you know, personally that most people are laughing at my opinion here. Let me in on that study. Graphs, please.
"you are assuming someone finds it offensive when in actuality the only ones finding it offensive are those that have nothing to do with that culture."
Ah, you've figured it out!
No, but really. I hope my sarcasm is seeping through to you.
Not saying people can't speak up on their own behalf, I am just saying others can see it too and speak up if they please.

This design is rly cool !:D And idk, but there seems to be people that doesn't remember what 'racist' means- "by treating a spesific group of people(by colour of skin/their counrty) different. Which is not the case .3. You made a design based of a culture-- how can they be offended by that?
Seriously, if they get mad over having their culture being in a design, they should think about all the other cultures out there being used as well. Most husky dogs would have the same case(as they're a huge importance in cultures like Sami)
People are so fast with using the term racist.

Anything can draw inspiration from anything else. Especially a species that can change depending on what strikes it's fancy. Who's to say this adorable critter didn't admire the Native Americans so much, and when it went through the rebirthing process, didn't decide 'hey, they had cool stuff I wanna be like them' eh?
Maybe you should think more deeply into something before speaking your thoughts. Chances are that first thought isn't the thing you need to voice.
Jitterbug, this is a very beautiful dutchie, I hope he goes to a good home.

Pardon me. I am Apart of the cheroenhaka tribe of Native Americans This design isnt racist its quite beatiful on my part i've actually shown the native american DADS to the tribe's chief and he says he loves them we had a pow wow on saturday and i was like why not. also he is my cousin.
Why people be kicking up a stink? Wouldnt it be more racist to exclude other races?
This is a good and respectful looking design. I have designed two Indian designs and no one has said anything about them
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/17365088/
And one that i am saving for a suit adopt
Its perfectly fine to make a race based DAD as long as it doesn't LOOK obviously racist. Like Afro black dragon with blink (unless it is Mr T then that is cool to me)
If you are designing it well then who cares? Its not being racist
