Even tho I'm guilty of it, alot of the questions could easily be answered simply by googling the subject. Do people just want to see how others respond to them? Please, no mean responses. I cry easy, lol.

In a sociology/racism class, I learned some of the stereotypes that different groups have about each other - these are just SOME of them:

- All Black men: are lazy, are thugs and drug dealers
- All Black women; have bad attitudes, have big butts, are on welfare
- All Black people: are always late, love fried chicken.
-All White people: don't season their food, their babies all look alike, are sexually uninhibited, and smell like wet dogs.
- All Asians: are really good in math and science, love to eat rice, are really short, they all know about martial arts.
- All Hispanics: live with tons of family members, will do any kind of work, are sneaky are are illegal.

My question: Do you believe any of these stereotypes? Where do you think these stereotypes come from?

How often do you see anyone calling black people racist? How often do you see people call asians racist? You could go on forever with these races ,but why must we always finger point the white guy? I'm not white ,but I'm pretty damn curious.

For example: My 94 year old grandma asked me to go get some electric light bulbs. She doesn't just say light bulbs. It's always electric light bulbs, because, its still kind of doesn't take it for granted.
