After reading aboutface's response (which I thought well said and equal to my own perspective on the matter) and your response it appears to me that you already know where you stand and are just looking for validation and affirmation from your respondents.

I disagree. I feel that for some it may be an expression of ones inner feelings but I am a man of equality... might seem odd but I actively fight for equality among all people daily. I live on a street on mostly latino and middle eastern cultures and when it comes to playing outside I always go by fairness to all, I'm not secretly thinking I wish these *insert slur here* would avoid me.
I also view people of other groups and do think stereotypes but immediately correct myself and see the person as an individual. It usually has more to do with clothing and not race or sexual preference.

Does anyone else happen to feel this is something negative or that it's a sign of inner emotions? I'm up for discussion.
