Acceptable Ethnic Targets	comment	A subset of Acceptable Targets. Remember that these aren't always ethnic in the literal sense we're used to — they just refer to groups who are targeted for their physical appearance or for having inborn traits that they can't really change. Foreign/unusual accents and dialects are also typically considered speech impediments, and therefore become subjects of mockery much like Acceptable Hard Luck Targets. See also Funny Foreigner.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_12dde29	comment	Any midget match/segment is used for comedy or for the heel to mock their opponent. The exception are lucha feds like CMLL and AAA, as well as lucha inspired feds like Pro Wrestling Revolution, which have "Mini" divisions for anyone under a certain height generally taken as seriously as the "large" divisions. Though not the only members, mini ranks tend to be dominated by midgets and dwarves. Subverted in Dick the Bruiser's World Wrestling Association in Indianapolis in his and The Crusher's feud with Bobby Heenan. Bruiser and Crusher would team with a midget named Little Bruisernote When they did the match in Milwaukee, he was named "Little Crusher" against Heenan and The Blackjacks (Mulligan and Lanza). It's two big tough Face wrestlers and a midget against two big tough Heel wrestlers and a Heel manager. Who gets the pin? The midget. Who takes the pin? Heenan.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_16861a09	comment	Possibly averted in The Incredibles, in which there are two characters short enough to potentially be the butt of dwarf jokes, but both characterizations are based on something else entirely — Mr. Huph is defined by his callous indifference to human suffering, and the humor of Edna Mode's character stems from her artistic temperament. It is only a possible aversion because the cartoony style of the film makes it uncertain whether their shortness is supposed to be indicative of dwarfism, or just a quirk of character design. Most likely it's to contrast them with Mr. Incredible. Mr. Huph because it's thus more humorous that this tiny little guy is ranting and ordering around a massive, superpowered dude because of his authority, and Edna because she smacks the same guy around and bends him to her will with far more style and good humor. And many of the characters are physical exaggerations, including Mr. Incredible, to augment the movie's "morning cartoon" style.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_222f03d3	comment	College football coach Hayden Fox on Coach frequently mocked Sitcom Archnemesis Coach Judy Watkins, and the players on her ladies basketball team for being tall, and, implicitly, butch. Hayden was a curmudgeonly Straw Misogynist Chew Toy who mocked the idea of women playing sports at all, while and coach Watkins was decidedly closer to earth; usually, this highlighted that tall women are labeled as boorish and ungraceful, but unattractive as well. He also made fun of his assistant coach, Dauber, for being tall.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_2275c659	comment	House had an episode with a dwarf woman and her daughter. The daughter's condition was caused by a curable disease (Cushing's?), meaning that when cured, she hit a growth spurt. House actually treated both of them as he would anyone else — he's abrasive and demeaning with everyone he encounters, so while he made a few dwarfism remarks, they were similar to things he's said about any other group besides "people who are Greg House". Usually hyper-sensitive Dr. Cameron came off as something of an Innocent Bigot though.

In the event a black wrestler did become too popular to suppress, such as Bobo Brazil, they were still pigeon holed into whitebread baby face roles. Ernie Ladd was an exception, as his fame as a professional football player allowed him to get away with being a heel even against white wrestlers.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_2abd5315	comment	Whose Line Is It Anyway?''. Poor Colin Mochrie... In one game, Ryan makes a joke about Colin's baldness that naturally amuses the audience, but when Colin follows up with a joke about Ryan's nose, the audience reacts negatively. After the game, Colin notes "Notice all the melon jokes, the bald jokes? I make one nose joke, it's OOOOOOOHHH!". In fact, Colin is still the butt of bald jokes in the revival despite Wayne Brady sporting a shaved head now. It's brushed off due to Wayne being bald by choice (Wayne is black of course, but according to Wayne's hairline in the late 00s, his baldness is probably not entirely by choice either).

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_2b60ae0f	comment	In Bruges has Jordan Prentice playing Jimmy, an actor with dwarfism. This is more of an in-story example; main character Ray has a strange obsession with "midgets" but all the prejudice he meets from other characters is simply because he's rude and American. He's also mistaken for a child, and is in fact playing a child in the film's Film Within A Film. And he's an asshole with a coke habit and occasionally racist rants, but this is shown as having more to do with him being an actor than being a dwarf. In spite of this, though, he's a fairly multilayered, believable character.

There was a scene in a bar where the character was surrounded by half a dozen babes when another character tracked him down (he'd gone missing). He was asked "How do you get the babes?", and replied "Chicks dig brains", or words to that effect. The dwarf character had several math (and language?) degrees and was otherwise a valued team member. And was played by Peter Dinklage, by the way.

Then they became dangerous hardcore brawlers with the rise of The Sheepherders, but they got turned into jokes in the WWF after their Heel–Face Turn into The Bushwakers, and New Zealanders became seen as "wacky".

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_3e5de40b	comment	Played half-straight in Scrubs. A recurring character holds a black belt that's generally shown with punches to the crotch, or in one case, crushing the hand of another character to end a tense handshake. "Would you stop using that expression, Randall? It's stuck in my head." But averted in an episode where assisting a really short surgeon is considered a terrible assignment to pull; the "boys' club" that uses him as an instrument of social coercion is portrayed as a pack of Jerkasses, and he gets to deliver the aesop of the episode. To be fair, the "punishment" aspect of being assigned to assist the incredibly short doctor was because the assisting surgeon would be required to stand hunched over for hours at a time, resulting in severe back pain and stiffness because of the height disparity.

All of them are portrayed as violent racist militants who like the fact that the Confederacy allows black slavery, buying slaves for themselves while there. To be fair, however, the real-life group they came from was extreme even by apartheid standards (it was actually banned by the government in those days).

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_4b790c79	comment	Iron Man tries to avert this trope by saying that the terrorist group includes people who "speak many different languages — Arabic, Farsi, Dari, Urdu, Russian, Hungarian (!)..." However, all the terrorists shown onscreen are brown (although some are undoubtedly supposed to be Afghan, not Arab). And the main terrorist henchman speaks Arabic in all his scenes despite being played by the Pakistani-American Faran Tahir (though Urdu is spoken in some scenes, and is a realistic choice for a multi-ethnic group)…so the attempted aversion doesn't really work. Perhaps a subversion later on when Iron Man actually saves innocent Middle Eastern citizens from the terrorists. There's also the nice prisoner who helps Tony build his suit. A bit of a Magical Negro in a few ways, but his Heroic Sacrifice (aka he walks into a group of armed men with no chance for survival) is made more interesting when he reveals that he's actually trying to get himself killed so that he can be with his dead family again. In the original comic book Tony's captors were all Vietnamese (it was published around the time of The Vietnam War) including Professor Yinsen, who, yes, helps Tony to build the armor and makes a Heroic Sacrifice to save him. (Yinsen is most definitely a Chinese name, not Vietnamese, though there are ethnic Chinese people in Vietnam, whom the Communists persecuted.)

TNA would try again with "Mexican America", an group of Mexican supremacists who wanted to launch a Nazi style takeover of the United States Of America(or at least Florida) while spouting rhetoric about the boarder crossing them first and superiority of their race. There was even cross promotion with WWC where Mexican America invaded the promotion to fight a two front war because WWC was so full of Puerto Ricans to beat up.

One man sums it up — The same show, and its stablemate Family Guy also lampshade the Values Dissonance between American and Europe on the desirability or otherwise of female bodily hair. European women who don't care or don't bother about shaving armpits, etc, are pilloried as somehow being unclean and certainly less desirable.note Europeans can find the perceived American mania for women to shave and depilate virtually everything to bejust as weird and un-natural

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_6300d32a	comment	300. Yes, you can make the case that it was told from the perspective of an Unreliable Narrator, but there are a lot of other ethnic groups that a major Hollywood movie simply could not get away with depicting as faceless, soulless, subhuman depraved monsters. More likely the film would never have seen the light of day. The bad guys in both movie and comic book were not only the Persians, but also (generic eastern) Asians, black men, homosexuals (and bisexuals, transsexuals...), old men, sick men, hunchbacks and deformed in general. And they were all portrayed as cowardly, incompetent, and/or inhuman, depraved monsters. Even the only woman in the movie, despite being on the side of the heroes, has to prostitute herself to try and get military help for her husband. And if you speak Italian, it's funny that the only named bad guy other than Xerxes is called Theron, since its italianized form (Terone) is a derogative epithet for people from the South of Italy, usually darker and physically more similar to Arabic people, as opposed to the people from the North, who have usually more Mittel-European features.

Their mother was an abusive and alcoholic monster (metaphorically speaking), none of which is directly blamed on her being Roma, but it doesn't help that she engaged in a lifestyle that matches the worst of the anti-Roma stereotype (fortune-teller, scam artist, thief and jailbird). Worse are the Sarzo clan and their witch of a matriarch, Abelia-Roo (especially in the fifth book). We're told that, of all of human society, only the Roma are aware as a society of the non-human inhabitants in that particular universe.

While it's about an alien version of apartheid, all of South Africa is prejudiced against the extraterrestrials. The hero is also an Afrikaner who pulls a Heel–Face Turn. The movie's not about apartheid. It's actually about South African immigration. For the most part this trope is played straight, since we're talking about the main Afrikaaners in the movie, most of whom are Evil Businessmen, Sadistic Scientists, and Gun-Toting Maniac Racists. But a careful bit of attention to the in-story "logic" behind the Nigerian gangsters and you uncover some potentially interesting parallels. For instance, if Prawns represent sympathetic immigrants and a good many immigrants in the country are Nigerian but your Nigerians are Always Chaotic Evil then you're entering ugly territory.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_859e6b38	comment	The first Back to the Future film features Libyan terrorists who try to shoot the heroes. The "language" they speak in the film is absolute nonsense and in no way resembles the languages actually spoken in Libya. The series doesn't only pick on "acceptable" targets. The first film also features stereotypical African American characters (Goldie Wilson and Marvin Berry), and in the second movie Marty's screaming boss embodies a Japanese stereotype. This type of cheap racial humor was still common in the 1980s, even though ironically the first movie was trying to celebrate racial progress.

Studies have shown that it's common for a person of any race to have trouble distinguishing members of any other race. It is theorized that this is because when confronted with a person of obvious differences, such as a different skin color or a differently-shaped nose or face, most people will focus on those major differences, and will have trouble distinguishing the details, such as shades of skin color or slight variations in shape of nose or face. So, this may have been more Truth in Television than the writers intended.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_964ef08b	comment	Canadians in general used to be considered quite, serious types who insist on low to the mat no punch kick matches while struggling to give compelling interviews, dating back to the days of the Bristish Empire. Anglo-Canadians later began to be seen as hammy "cool kids" with fragile egos, tending to lash out at everything that doesn't acknowledge their superiority, thanks to Owen Hart, Jim Neidhart, Chris Jericho and Wrestling/Christian, but the charisma blackhole stereotype held on thanks to "technical wizard" Lance Storm and TEst. Franco-Canadians tend to be sea rats, dirty theives, low life thugs and garbage wrestlers, or wannabe Frenchmen, with all the negative traits that come with being French and a poser. The latter is due to WWE turning Franco-Canadians La Resistance and Maryse into Francophiles, fake Frenchmen, or French Sympathizers, as the situation required.

In the second movie, Chris Tucker punches Jackie Chan by accident while fighting Chinese Triads and says, "All y'all look alike!" This is only justified by the fact that Jackie Chan makes fun of Asians often, so giving Chris Tucker just one line does little harm. It's also the fact that the joke sort of involves mocking white people more than anything else, as it's a common accusation that white people think all black people look alike... thus the humor in a black person saying something similar of another ethnicity. Of course studies have shown that people raised around a majority of one race have more difficulty picking out distinguishing features of other races, but because of the above-noted WASP acceptable target, it's associated with white people.

Although one other dwarf is shown with a relatively high station in a religious settlement, it is clear that were he not a son of the richest and most powerful lord in the land, Tyrion would have suffered even more, something he is well aware of.

Consequently, they have never been solved by a human". This idea is elaborated in the promotional short "Bot Trust." The clip starts with a little animation of two humans entering a test chamber; one quickly shoves the other into a fire pit for no apparent reason. The narrator concludes that "Our data clearly shows that humans cannot be trusted. The answer? Robots!" Cue the montage of the two co-op robots, Atlas and P-Body, working together through "a regimen of trust exercises." At the end the narrator announces that these "inspiring artificial bonds" will be put to the test... and cuts to P-body shoving Atlas into a fire pit for no apparent reason. What did this accomplish?

As he's passing by, flight attendants and passengers stop and stare at him in fear or disgust (while the theme for Jaws is being played). When he finally reaches his seat, he's revealed to be a Middle-Eastern man in a turban. As soon as the poor guy sits down, he suddenly gets harassed by two employees and is called "Osama" by one of them. It's all Played for Laughs.

A member of Jack's crew is also a little person, and while they once or twice play his size for laughs, he's largely treated as just another member of Jack's dysfunctional little "family". Nearly every production that features Martin Klebba generally ignores his condition... unless his dwarfism is the entire point of his appearance.

Only somewhat, because every major Arab character (except the one played by Omar Sharif) is played by a Westerner, and the fact they are unable to overcome their tribal differences in Damascus, allowing the British and French to take over from the 'children.' That was also kind of what really happened: the various factions were unable to agree on anything and couldn't present a unified front to the League of Nations. The movie also portrayed the British and the French as beings complete racist bastards who only care about Arabia as being a part of their empires.

And deliberately shooting her from high angles to make her look even shorter. One must wonder if a scene in The West Wing, where her character is walking on a hallway with C.J. "Flamingo" Cregg, is poking fun at her slight stature, or C.J.'s towering one.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_d154285c	comment	Believe it or not, TNA Wrestling actually manages to avert it, and subvert it. The aversion comes with Raisha Saeed, burqa-clad wrestler/manager who was one of the most powerful women in TNA's "Knockout" division (thanks largely to her association with the unstoppable Awesome Kong); though she's an example of a long running tradition of mysterious Arab Heels, it's more flattering than a terrorist angle. The subversion comes with "Sheik Abdul Bashir", who would seem to be the epitome of that standard "terrorist" stereotype, what with the angry rhetoric and the comments about holding the X-Division title "hostage"… but only if you ignore his introductory vignettes, which established him as a former Iranian-American businessman who lost everything after 9/11 due to runaway hatred of Middle Easterners, and then decided that he would make himself into the very personification of American fears as the ultimate revenge. Said vignettes even established that Abdul Bashir isn't even his real name; that would be Shawn Daivari. Daivari himself also portrayed the childhood friend of a Double Subversion in Muhammad Hassan. Hassan was introduced and constantly described as an American-born of Arab descent who was just as appalled by 9/11 as "we" were, but became the victim of racism from those who didn't want to know him. The double subversion came when irony bit HARD on the character, as the fans didn't want to know him and booed him for his race. The writing team quickly applied Flanderization like there was no tomorrow and turned him into the evil Arab the fans wanted to think of him as, culminating in choking an opponent out with a piano wire garrotte while Daivari was carried out as though a martyr by a bunch of people in ski masks, thus taking what might have been one of the most interesting characters ever and making him the most offensive. Irony kept biting when the WWE taped that particular scene on 4 July 2005 for a show to air on 7 July, meaning it was already in the can when London got attacked. Everyone in the media, including those who really should know better, said the WWE was capitalizing on the terrorist attack, and Hassan's career was over before it ever started.

Then there's Jasmine, a princess who dresses like a harem girl. It's also worth noting that the good characters have more Western-looking appearances (Aladdin was actually modeled on Tom Cruise), and generic American accents, while the evil Jafar has more Semitic features and an evil British accent.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_ea4f62db	comment	The same show, and its stablemate Family Guy also lampshade the Values Dissonance between American and Europe on the desirability or otherwise of female bodily hair. European women who don't care or don't bother about shaving armpits, etc, are pilloried as somehow being unclean and certainly less desirable.note Europeans can find the perceived American mania for women to shave and depilate virtually everything to bejust as weird and un-natural

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_ef076a36	comment	Star Trek: Voyager was notorious for this, with the anti-WASP male stereotype Tom Paris, but also treating B'Elanna Torres' periodically breaking the limbs of male WASP underlings as a source of humor: beating up weaker people is allegedly funny, so long as the weaker people are WASP males and the abusive figure is female. Even if the latter is half alien.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_f0a86c12	comment	How I Met Your Mother sometimes makes jokes about Marshall's height (e.g., when security tells Barny there's a Sasquatch in building) and the fact that the rest of his family are all even taller, Marshall is specificially described as being the runt of the family at 6'4. Except in the above example, it was Marshal calling Barney and then pretending to be a Sasquatch in order to make Barney laugh, so it's not an example of him being a target. That being said, Marshal's height is often mocked by his friends in a similar way they mock Ted's romanticism or Robin's tomboy qualities.

Acceptable Ethnic Targets / int_f4313238	comment	Averted in Ender's Shadow with Bean. While Bean does grow in later novels (it's a genetic disease that eventually makes him grow too tall), for the duration of the first book he is significantly shorter than all the others. However, Bean is shown as being smarter than all the rest of the school of geniuses. There are many moments where Bean is mistreated for his height, but those are mostly done by bullies or portrayed negatively. Largely, Bean uses his height to his advantage, as he does with everything.

While many jokes were made at the expense of his height, Frishman played up his character as a smug, over-rich, total and complete bastard, the direct antithesis of the usual "adorable midget" phenomenon that was sweeping the nation at the time. The jokes were made by Dan Fielding, who taunted Daniels mercilessly about his height — but got his punishment when Daniels turned out to be his supervisor.
