@caffinejunky Yep you do. Don't be offended though I suspect that it was said in all innocence. It got me googling and there seems to be little evidence to support the theory.
I may leave it at that before someone really upsets someone. Suffice to say I sweat a bit and I'm often referred to as a plastic mouse, (even if I'm actually a bear so what do they know)
@WaveyDavey001: You know what.....it's offending, but it's not about the sweat. I'm actually writing a post about weight loss today so I think my sensors are up. I wrote a little last night on my blog about it.
I'm white and fat and extremely offended by my own comment. I guess my sense of humor is more obese than I am. People, you've gotta learn to laugh - it's our only salvation. (Besides cheezburgers.) LAUGH, it burns calories.
My comment wasn't intended to offend. The human species is united in diversity not equality. It's a fact that there are genetic differences that are most obvious when it comes to skin color. And if the skin and its consistency is different, why is it not possible that ethnicity can be linked to perspiration (which is strongly linked to the human skin)?
Because if I said that you smell or your ethnic group smelt in type on a mobile blog you might think at minimum that was a bit strange. At maximum you might take offence.
If you met me and you saw my good and inquisitive nature you might think different I guess
i thought it was a spoof on how paris hilton talks, and you were saying how the new nokia tube is hot... All the asians love it!... But, i was wrong...
@WaveyDavey001: Well, following my own logic it could very well be that the reverse is true and asians in fact sweat more than other people. All I know is that we are all different from each other but still sharing certain attributes with a group of people (sometimes refered to as ethnic groups).

Non-Asians in the tubes are fat. D'uh. Forecast for the tubes: in-coming stroke.

First real thing said that offends me on Jaiku.

Yeah! I'm non-Asian and I don't sweat on the tube...and believe me I've seen plenty of Asians sweating on there!

@trench: Actually, some of them are really hot. And some even hotter when drained in sweat ;)

@casmaron It's a trap.

@cj Yeah shit it is and I regret drawing attention to it. I'm trying to stop a crap fest that I might have stupidly started.
@adonisdemon :) In honour of @cj revealing her true self, I now reveal my true self for a limited time. Ta Da

@casmaron: As I said I'm not to bothered, but the black and white comment could be taken badly. Don't panic
