What are you opinions about this controversial meme?


I honestly want to know what people think about it. Is it funny, is it true, is it ignorant?

Racial stereotypes are just as useless and stupid no matter whom they are about. However, they are far more destructive toward minorities in any society.

Well I'm torn about it. After all, this is simply a joke, not really an attack.
To say white girls like pumpkin spice lattes and black people like fried chicken is like saying Italians like spaghetti and meatballs.
I don't really see the insult, because every group has its stereotypes. I'm not a woman who likes to do my make-up and hair and go shopping, yet I laugh at those stereotypical jokes. It is the same with guys liking football and beer! Some men can't stand either of those things, but they accept the joke for what it is.

@NineLives: Agreed. Well said.

Many people, like the posters above, do see the humor in these silly stereotypes and have the good sense not to take these stereotypes seriously. I'm a blonde who laughs at blond jokes, for instance. It's the few who do take stereotypes seriously, especially the ugly bad stereotypes , who create the problems. And for some minority people those problems have included some very violent, even deadly behaviors. That is the reason some people seem overly sensitive about these mostly harmless stereotypes.
