I was just wondering if there is such a thing as good racism? Let me give you a few examples. I refuse to hire a white guy to do my yard work..... I've had probably 5 or 6 white guys do my lawn over the past 5 years. They have all been slow, didn't do a good job, most asked for water and over charged. On the flip side, you get some mexicans and they are friendly, fast, do a fantastic job and are in and out in under 2 hours. I always give them a nice tip for the job they do.
Also my wife won't trust anyone but an Asian to do her nails, last time a white lady did her nails she got this nasty infection on her thumb and developed a hang nail. I only trust Asians to do my dry cleaning also.... they get all the stains out, never give me a hassel and get them done fast.... If I see a white guy at the dry cleaners I literally walk out.
Are these stereotypes good or are they unjustified or am I just a complete jackass

Your opinions are perfectly acceptable because your preference implies that whites are inferior to their minority counterparts. However, if you were to reverse the situation and imply that minorities were inferior to whites you would be a racist bastard.
Ha ha, When I do my yard work, I am slow, don't do a great job, and make my girlfriend get me water quite a bit! It's not racist if it is true, I guess!!!
I don't now if it's acceptable racism, but I think it might be okay to have a preference for people to do certain things based on your personal experience.
For instance, the last full body massage I got was done by a handsome, young, hot, black man. It was fabulous!!! Was it fabulous because he was a handsome, young, hot, black man? I dunno, but I sure as hell ain't taking any chances!!

I don't know. Chiefs fans and Redskins fans cheer for it every sunday. Mods are too quick in closing threads right now so i came here. I would say no. Some people are just better workers than others. I have a lot of friends of Mexican descent, and they are the first ones I call when I need something done. I think its a work ethic that varies from culture to culture. Mexicans who come here find that work like this is an effective way to make money.
Oh and Folster is dead on. Double standards... What can you do?
Ryan, I see where your coming from. To me it's the same (sort of) as having a lot of friends of different races, yet you would prefer your child to marry someone of their own race. While I don't necessarily subscribe to that, I wouldn't label someone who does as a racist.
