its natural fear of the unknown. its how animals defend the territory that is their shelter and food supply.last i checked i was in the animal kingdom.
though we are now at a stage in history where we have to rise above the primitive urge to beat to death anything that doesnt resemble ourselves, evolution is a very slow process. so what i mean is our resonably newfound cultural and ethical mind is in conflict with our primitive territorial mind. and not just when it come to other races. sex is like that too for me (and guys in general maybe).
For me, i can see a guy as an asian if thats my first impression of him. same as I see a woman, or a skatepunk. each limited veiw carries a huge array of pre-conceptions and prejudices. I may wonder if the asian moves heroin or goes to university, or if the skatepunk needs the board wrapped around his head coz he barrelled an old couple. or if the lady will want to...
So my veiw is, its a natural reaction, but less ignorance of others differences enables us to rise above primeval urges.
