Racism in Model Chatrooms

[SNATCH]

To be honest, I have only had a couple times where someone is overtly racist towards me where I had to ban them.

With that being said, I will say the racial slurs fly like birds in my room, because we make heavy racial jokes. I myself have actually been accused of being racist, when I am making fun of my OWN race. I am asian, && never will I hesitate to make asian jokes, esp ones that pertain to driving. But I have been harassed about how racist I am, && how uncool it is to say things like that. Apparently a lot of people are blind, && stupid, && can't tell that I am asian, LOLS. [it's blatantly obvious]

The couple times I had to ban a few people was cause the context was just like well hey there look at this fat yellow gook. && I'm like dude. NOT COOL. FAIL. GOODBYE.

I did have one guy get completely pissed because I said I wasn't usually attracted to white guys, && he got all bent out of shape l&& took it as a personal insult, because he was white. - eyeroll.

I tell everyone that I am an EQUAL OPPORTUNITY HATER. . But I just think it all depends on the context of what's being said.

Sometimes I see a lot of homophobia too. Its like there's something about naked women that reminds staright men how much THEY HATE THEM GAWT DANGED QUEERS. It just makes them look like gross old rednecks. I quickly try to derail/remove hatefulness, makes me feel the opposite of sexy.
Im glad none of my regs are like that though

Racism and homophobia are wrong, there's no doubt. I've not seen what you described, except in the lounge. But I'd bet it's more due to the dynamic of a "group of guys". A lot of time in these groups they have to constantly reassure themselves that they are "manly men". It's more of a testosterone (or lack there of) thing than a homophobia thing. You would probably see this in the usual gathering spots: strip clubs, sports bars, mechanic's shops (lol), etc. It's basically the same thing as one guy telling another "you're a fag", but ramped up that none of them come off as "fags".

Of course, there's no doubt that there might be some genuine homophobia in the MFC customer base.
