it could be.. gringo is not a bad word but if youre saying something negative it could be seen as a negative concept
for example, its like using "Asian"
you could say: Asian girls are really hot.
bit you couls also say: My friend has ugly eyes, just like asians.
(i dont really mean that, im not racist!)
