Many minorities have stereotypes and generalizations. I'm just curious as to what white stereotypes are.

That we all owned slaves and owe every black an apology and money. That we keep all black people down. Just look at black comedians. They make fun of whites all the time and it's no big deal. But let a white comedian say something about black culture and Jessie Jackson is suing.

Hmm...Not having style....geeky, oftentimes. Naive and priviledged, lazy, not having to work as hard as ethnicities for equal profits. The "dumb blond" stereotype only applies to blonde white girls, really. Not having 'soul'. Being very literate, and that white businessmen are uptight (although that may go for businessmen in general).
There are stereotypes that entire states (such as Alabama, I think) are racist, as well.

Black people do not care about stereotype about white people as white people do blacks. For anybody to know stereotypes about another race means they have a prejudice stereotypical kinda of mind to even care what other races do.

Since you don't know any your not one of those people.

What is white culture? I have never heard such a thing. When people talk about black culture I am also at a loss. Are they referring to our African Ancestry, the inner city American Black experience (ghetto), the suburban black experience (Bogey)? I am never sure but all of these experiences are different as all black people are different and are exposed to culture in varying degrees. It is my guess that white people, whomever that describes, are the same.

Values of white culture: money, power, independence, justice (i.e retribution), privilege, contractual obligation (vs. just doing the right thing), correctness, property...Along with the basic values that all human cultures share: freedom, family, honesty, integrity, excellence.

White American stereotypes: naive, biased, clueless, silly, impractical, dishonest, selfish, wannabes
