For example, one Asian person is really nice to White person because the person is White. It's not a racism because the Asian person is just really nice and the White person won't know the Asian person is nice to him "because of his race". But what do you think about them? and the White person won't know about the reason they are nice to him forever?

Yes, it is "reverse racism", seeking someone out and favouring them because of their race or nationality. It's not criticised as much, because it's not always that noticeable, and even if it is noticed, it's not that big of a deal, as long as they are treating people well. It is most noticed when people date someone from a different race, for some reason that offends others. For example, some Black women get upset when a Black man dates white women. It has been said that it would be better for that man to be dating a Black woman rather than a white woman. Where I work, a white man is married to a Philippine woman, a Chinese man is dating a white woman, a Jew is dating a Gentile. This world is a big place and lots of people meet lots of other people, there are few limitations from encountering people from other cultures, this sort of behaviour is perfectly natural and it is rather beautiful to see. Kimora Lee Simmons is half Chinese and half Black, she is a tall gorgeous model and business woman. That's a fantastic role model for Asian and Black girls alike.

Maybe they like Asian people, or are attracted to how they look. I think I always smile at black babies just because they have this sparkle to them. I can't explain why I see this sparkle, I just do. Sometimes I am just nice to people because they look like they need a smile or a kind word. When we first see someone it is only their appearance that we can react to. And people are attracted to different things. So if someone is nice to me just because I am white...that's OK by me.

I know what you're talking about and have seen it first hand. As for Asians, well, most of them hate themselves anyway and wish that they were white, so thats why they are extra nice to them. Having said that, overall, I feel that Asians are nice, gentle people and are nice to everyone!

Some people are nice to others simply because they want others to be nice with them too. It is always right to be nice for as long as there are no ulterior motives why you are so nice with the person.

because some races feel like there on a different level than others and by being nice to themm it could help you boost your race or for other reasons .also people thinkthat other races can hurt them so they either fight back or try to earn there trust

I think if people are nice to someone just because of their race,than they`re racist hypocrites.I see that alot it`s because they`re afraid. I personally am nice to anyone who is nice to me,if you smile at me in passing, I`ll smile back,and vice-versa,If you turn your head and don`t acknowledge me,Then you can kiss my *** for all I care whatever race you may be....Ain`t no shame in my game!!! I love people for who they are not their color,to me the more races I know the more my life will be fulfilled.

I've seen people in stores be extra nice to black people. Maybe they don't want them to think they are racist.
You should be nice to people because it is nice.
