How to Date a Brown Girl (Black Girl, White Girl, or Halfie)
"How to Date a Brown Girl (Black Girl, White Girl, or Halfie)" is a satirical short story by Junot Díaz. The story takes the guise of an instructional manual, purporting to offer advice as to how to act or behave depending upon the ethnicity and social class of the reader’s date.
==Plot Summary==
Diaz’s dating guide for the Dominican American teenage male takes on the authority of experience by employing a narrator speaking in second person. The story is centered around a young teenage boy giving instructions about readiness for a date. Starting off with removing obvious signs of Dominican “ghetto” culture such as the "government cheese",〔Diaz, Junot. “How to Date a Black Girl, White Girl or Halfie.” The Story and Its Writer. Ed. Ann Charters. Compact 8th ed. Boston: Bedford/St.Martin’s, 2011. 305-312. Print.〕 then to approaching the female depending on whether or not she is an “insider” or “outsider”. As the story progresses you see how the narrators words and mannerisms change according to the race of the female. These observations determine his speech and physical approach to them. The narrator constantly shifts descriptions of both the women and the male's ethnicities and social class to where it is very difficult to determine exactly what type of person is speaking or to whom.
