No. Not at all. In fact, I don't believe ANY of those stereotypes are true. You CAN'T stereotype anyone by race.

White people born and living in the same place, and under the same conditions as blacks, Asians, or others, will have the average mentality of those around him. The same with other races raised by whites.
Their race does not determine their mentality. Surrounding, education, customs, etc does.
Blacks are not more athletic than whites. Many times more blacks try out for athletics, therefore you'll see more of them on athletic teams. If you have a basketball court in a town where the population in ninety percent white, the court will have eight or nine blacks practicing to each white.
I don't know how you determined that Asians have faster reflexes than anyone else. so I won't comment. But I will say that I have never witnessed these fast reflexes, and have very strong doubts about them.
Color of skin is just that - - color. All other characteristics are the result of environment and education,

i know studies have shown the Asians to be the most intelligent and i think that is most likely what intelligence test would show .
i don't think they are the smartest as i am very hard put to think of a truly original idea the Japanese have come up with for at least one hundred years.
so i think the whites are the smartest then the Asians. then the Spanish although i consider them white. then for sure at the bottom of the list has to be the blacks.

Ok, first off you're lobbing races into stereotypical catagories like they're nothing. And there is no one race in the history of the Earth that is smarter, stronger, or has better reflexes than the rest.

These are all sterotypes, it's 2007 and peolpe still believe this? SMH .And what would be the proof of this? I thought the stereotype was that Asians are the smartest and white people just pretend to be.

No. I don't think any race is smarter than the other. I believe it's based on individuals.

Nope. It doesn't really matter what race. All races are capable of the same things. Get over it.

No. Those are stereotypes. Are you smarter than Colin Powell or Oprah?
