Jeff Gordon is everything bad about NASCAR. He whines, cries and yells at his own team. Like everyone else at Hendrix, he wouldnt win anything without his team.

That's why he has 75 wins and 4 championships.

I confirm this and advise you to stop objectifying ginger kids while your soul is still redeemable.

Have you ever heard of Alfred Kinsey? You should maybe read some of his work, it will answer all of your questions. On a related note, I've heard that redheads are wild in bed.

Just like white guys are better at hockey.
(  Of course, something being predominantly black or white doesn't mean that either group does it better. It's usually just about training and recruitment opportunities. For instance, the NBA was VERY WHITE for a long time.)

Wait, you mean to tell me that the entirety of black society didn't magically become better at the sport of basketball between 1950 and 1995?
BOOM HEADSPLODES
Occam's Razor is alive and well . . . for the 5% of us that use our freaking brains.

You know they were putting growth hormones in Church's Chicken for a while, so anything's possible.  That also explains why basketball shorts went from Daisy Duke to saggy baggy.

Ok, I know I'm a little late to the thread, but I feel like maybe I can explain why the question was offensive. I find it unbelievable that so many female posters couldn't understand why someone could find the question offensive. I think that it may be the objectification of a man that some can't wrap their heads around...like how people can't wrap their heads around the idea of a man being sexually harrassed or raped by a woman ("Oh, he's a man, he probably enjoyed it. Oh, he should just man up and stop whining and complaining"). But objectification based on race is not that different from objectification based on gender. As women, it should be offensive to see anyone (man or woman, black or white) reduced to just the sum of their sex organs.
Since I think a lot of people are having issues understanding the objectification of men, let me explain it from a female perspective. Black men and Asian women are opposites sides of the same coin. Both have the stereotype of being hypersexualized. And people without first hand knowledge probably don't understand what the big deal it. They think we should be flattered that someone finds us attractive based on our race. And it's like "Gee, who wouldn't be flattered that some guy has lumped me and every other Asian female in the world together and thinks that we're all a bunch of submissive, porcelein-skinned sex dolls?"
By definition, a fetish is an OBJECT that causes a habitual erotic response or fixation. Now, that's fine and dandy when the object of your fetish is a shoe or a whip or an enema or an adult diaper or some other freaky stuff. But when you have a fetish about a race of people, suddenly we're talking about human beings here. When you fetishize a race of people, you're saying that they're objects...that one black man is interchangable for another...that one Asian girl is interchangable for another...that you're not into that person because of their charm, wit, personality, kindness, compassion, generosity, etc. It's to the point where I'm wary and suspicious of every Caucasian guy that approaches me or shows interest in me (I have encountered African-American and Latino guys with "yellow fever" but the vast majority of the time, it's Caucasian guys). At the back of my mind is always the question of is he interested because he thinks I'm cute, funny, sweet, cool, etc. or is he interested because he wants to "experience" a yellow girl and any yellow girl will do?
I know that some people may think that I'm over-reacting but until you've experienced this sort of thing on a persistent basis, I don't think you can really understand it. This whole idea of racial fetishism and eroticism really pisses me off, both as a minority and as a female. I hope I was able to shed more light on the topic. I wanted to go more in depth, but I'm going to be late for work....maybe later if the thread isn't shut down.

You really broke it down. Point well said. I can't agree more.

You so eloquently stated your position. Thank you.
And, no, you are not yellow...
You are a human being with feelings, desires, achievements, concepts, goals and dreams.
I hope you accomplish all your aspirations.
I am just saying this because I have all kinna young people in college coming to me telling me these same things and I don't know why I am compelled to uplift the years of engrained self-depreciating societal bigotry...
If anything, the original poster has an extremely low self-esteem in my PROFESSIONAL OPINION... I would refer her to psycheval.
