[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re-read OP's post. All she asked was if any white nannies existed in an area...she made no statements, judgement or otherwise, besides this. How on earth is it racist??? Is just saying the word white in to context of skin color automatically racist?? I would love if someone could identify the specifically racist content of this post.[/quote]

It's not racist. I think OP was likely being intentionally inflammatory, but I don't think the post was racist. It would seem we are all a little uncomfortable with a white woman actively seeking out the company of other white women purely on the basis of their skin color, but admittedly had she been any other race I don't think I'd have given it a second thought. There was even a post recently of a nanny looking for Fillipina nannies in silver spring and no one screamed racist. I do see a difference though in seeking companionship of others who speak your language and share your culture, which is perhaps all OP was looking for but could have been worded more tactfully.
