The children argument is interesting. When I was in second grade a girl from a different race had a crush on me, and I thought she was just swell.
But in describing her to my parents, I said she was a girl. A horrible girl made up of all those nasty girl things.
I think jorgelito is more right than wrong. Children tend not to be prejudiced. There are certain inbred feelings like not touching a snake, but for the most part they don't exist.
