Leserables: You seem determined to start a feud. How on earth is a lack of interest in a culture, racism? Your logic is bizarre.

Well, you have very dated opinions. To insinuate that Germans are any more prone to racism is offensive to me, and I'm not even German. This "Germans are racist" propaganda has gone on far too long and it stinks of ignorance. If anything you have revealed your prejudice towards Germans and have little grounds to lecture someone on the same account.

Agreed.

It is not a lack of interest in a culture, but ZERO (in capital letters) interest in the mentioned cultures that smacks of racism.

There are plenty of girls that I have ZERO interest in, but it doesn't mean I'm gay.

Hell, there are plenty of white European cultures that I have zero interest in, I guess I must be prejudiced against my own race.

It's called a non-sequitur fallacy. Google it.

For you, a man, to be gay you would have to have zero interest in all girls in general, physically.


That's a non-sequitur as well...
