Yes well rather sensibly MY definition COINCIDES with the ACTUAL definition:

racism n.
1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

And NO, asserting that polynesians are mostly attractive does not make you racist. But if you had the INTEGRITY to admit that you find polynesians MORE ATTRACTIVE than other races that would indeed be a discrimination based on race, and therefore racist.
