Because I'm Mexican
When I was 4 years old, I had a very large collection of stuffed animals. They were my babies. All had names and personalities. I talked to them, sat them down for pretend tea time, watched tv with them. Funny how even back then, I preferred non living beings to real human interaction. Seeing how maternal I obviously was, my mother asked me "Kayce, why do you want so many babies?" My response was "....uummmm....because I'm a Mexican," in my cute little 4 year old voice. Thanks to dear old dad, I had had my fill of racial stereotypes by age four.
OMG. They may be the greatest thing I've read all day.

LOL! That's interesting yet sad that you heard about that stereotype.
