Dear white people if you feel the urge to....

[monstar1]

If you feel the urge to tell a black person that they look similar to another black person please stop and keep it to yourself.  Even if its a celebrity.  From my research in the field you are wrong in your comparison 87% of the time.  
Its really offensive to tell somebody they look like another person who in reality looks nothing like them.  Please stop doing this.  

How come I've been told I look similar to Morris Chestnut my whole life by blacks (men, women, family and strangers).  But for some reason a guy at my job swears I look like Larry Fitzgerald....

 does this guy seen my face or just dreads?  Its pretty sad.

Yo I'll never forget when I'm chilling with a couple girls and this gay white dude is going to tell me I look like his ex-boyfriend. I was disgusted in several ways. Straight silence hit the room and I aint even bother getting at him cuz I see it was pure ignorance and he aint see nothing wrong. I didn't even need to see a pic of the dude to know how off he was on that.

I won't lie though a lot of white men look alike to me and when I'm in the city or in Queens Asian girls all look alike among a few different types.

Outgroup Homogeneity and In-group Differentiation
The out-group homogeneity effect is one's perception of out-group members as more similar to one another than are in-group members, e.g. "they are alike; we are diverse".[sup][1][/sup]The outgroup homogeneity effect, or "relative outgroup homogeneity" has been explicitly contrasted with the "outgroup homogeneity" in general,[sup][2][/sup] the latter referring to perceived outgroup variability unrelated to perceptions of the ingroup.

The out-group homogeneity effect has been found using a wide variety of different social groups, from political and racial groups to age and gender groups.[sup][3][/sup]

The implications of this effect on stereotyping have been noted.[sup][4][/sup] Perceivers tend to have impressions about the diversity or variability of group members around those central tendencies or typical attributes of those group members. Thus, outgroup stereotypicality judgments are overestimated, supporting the view that out-group stereotypes are overgeneralizations.[sup][5]....[/sup]

This is universal! Black people used to ask me if Bruce Lee was my uncle. I thought they were sikick (sp but i doubt it) Everyone from outside your race looks the same.
