i haven't read past wookies post on the first page so sod off if i'm going on about something you've already said....

anyway...so...i think a lot of people who say they aren't racist are. My dad is perfect proof of that....he uses the word nigger and other derogatory names when speaking of blacks and then will turn around and say hes not racist because 'he accepts them for who they are.' well that alone says it right there, doesn't it.

i'm a racist to some.... i'm the first to slag someone for their race if they do something stereotypical to their culture...go knows a few of you 'yanks' have had that from me...and go knows my poor husband who is a real canadian with native blood has more then a few times had my foul mouth slag him for sitting on his arse blamed for because of his heritage...

no its not nice...and i'll not make excuses for it nor will i change my ways...other cultures, races, etc, just naturally don't like or find something else different as a weakness....i just so happen to think the english are the best.

lol...;):24:

I don't think stereotyping is racist because stereotyping goes beyond races. I mean races will stereotype each other with their own society. For instance how caucasians have the stereotype that all blondes are airheads...

Every culture has has something that they do that brings a stereotype about. Now not everyone in the certain culture mauy do said thing but the stereotype exists for a reason.

Basic garden dictionary definition.

In this case - the fear of an unknown, creates a negative belief. If one was convinced there was nothing to fear, then there'd be no logical reason for the negative belief.
well yeah, as soon as im convinced that there's nothing race-related to fear then i disregard race, im just saying i have a habit of judging others based on their race

Fair enough. I do the same depending on the situation. It's not something I'm proud of. Again, the bottom line for me is how I'm treated - been screwed over by more of my own race than any other ;)
