Who's Prejudiced? Not Me!
- Think you're not prejudiced because you're gay, black, white, Asian, Latino, whatever? NOT!
- A sense of empathy does not "naturally" exist between minority groups.
- Commonality, even gayness, does not guarantee community.
TypeCasting: subtle and damaging stereotypes of the gay community
- Black Men: Sexually dominant, dangerous, unintelligent, hypersexual, huge dicks, tops, thugs, low class, diseased, black pudding
- Asian Men: Sexually submissive, subservient, smart, naïve, non-threatening, exotic, bottoms, androgynous, foreign, rice (men who like Asian men: rice queens; Asian men who like white guys: potato queens)
- Latin Men: Sexual, sensual, diseased, exotic, unintelligent, illegal, low class, bean queen, maricon
- White Men: Normal, upper class, acceptable, ideal, average, devoid of culture, prejudiced
With Liberty and Castro for All
- Check out the mixers for African-American men at Magnet.
- There's also Soulful Thursdays at the Edge.
- Asia SF, Esta Noche and hip-hop nights at many gay clubs attract diverse guys regularly.
