Re: dislike of a genre of music = racism?

I don't think this is always true. I'm sure there are people that dislike a certian race, they decide they don't like the music most commonly associated with that race. I do not enjoy listening to country music, but that isn't because I don't like cowboys. I just prefer something a little harder. Metallica, Godsmack, things like that. I don't like most rap and hip-hop, but agian, it's not because I dislike african-americans. I have friends that are, and get along great with them. I've never considered myself a racist of any type, but there are types of music I don't enjoy. It depends on the person, and it is often difficult to express why they don't like it. I don't feel it's any different than saying, you don't like a certian kind of food. Just because you don't like chinese food, doesn't mean you are racist agianst the chinese, and I feel it is the same way with music, cars, movies, or anything else.
