What kind of mental disorder is characterized by discriminating against yourself and your race and admiring another race of people?
Gallantmon
It's not a personality disorder or a 'mental disorder' in any of the usually accepted senses. It's often called 'self-hate', but this does NOT mean that a self-hating person (in this sense) is suicidal or anything like that. This kind of 'self-hate' is sometimes found among some members of various oppressed groups. The 'self-haters' have internalized some of the views that their oppressors have of them. Even if they don't actually share these prejudices, they have real difficulty accepting and identifying with their ethnic and cultural background or 'heritage'. In extreme cases they may even be deeplyashamed of their origins. The problem is often seen as one of group pyschology as well as (or even more than) individual psychology. It's NOT the kind of thing one would see a therapist about. I hope this is of help. Joncey
