Yes, there is an element of stereotyping involved but it is at least based upon evidence rather then other stereotypes like Jews drink the blood of Arab babies or other such junk printed in the Arab world.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate. -
For what it's worth, most stereotypes are based on some kernel of truth. The reason why stereotypes are harmful is that they tend to impute the behavior (or abilities, or what have you) of a few individuals to the entire minority group.
Even "benign" stereotypes can have this effect. One good example I've had to deal with personally is the stereotype that Asians are good at maths. There is some statistical basis for this stereotype, but it still has a negative effect on individuals who are Asian but for whatever reason are not good at maths.
This is just a minor point I'm raising. It does not necessarily validate or invalidate Oerdin's point."lol internet" ~ AAHZComment

He does appear to be one of the more bigoted individuals on this forum.Comment

He can't, or won't. He's been displaying it since before he "went lefty" and all that. It's been there since when he was a gung-ho guy off to Iraq. It's just usually directed at Muslims. The South is #2 on his list.Stop being a bigot.

My father is an ethnic german, he was born lutheran, but ended up an "assemblies of God" speaking in tongues evangelical. That is the most common form of protestantism in Latin America.Originally posted by Oerdin View PostYour Catholic grandmother must have been so disappointed.
(I'm assuming that your family, like most Latin American families, was Catholic in the past though this is just playing the odds.)
I think that in some central american countries they are already over 30% of the population.I need a foot massageComment
