Reprehensible? I think it's the opposite. If a part of you has an opinion that you know is wrong on some level, and you are ashamed and guilty, I think that's called progress. Otherwise, you're just an ignorant and racist jerk. At least you're alert to how inappropriate your thoughts are, and that is the first step towards change. If it didn't even occur to you that your thoughts are bigoted in any way are - those are the people that are reprehensible.

Glad to hear that you're not Vulcan, although you have the kind of boyish face that could carry pointy ears.
