  • How about, "I stereotype people, and you in particular annoy me. Can you please spit up your mucus in the rest room, where the rest of us don't have to listen to it?" That should get both points across.
  • Try, "Hi, I came across this information on basic hygeine courses and couldn't help but think of you. And please don't think that you have to thank me. It was a pleasure."
  • How many Asian men do you know who do this? I know no Asian men who do this. And I know several Asian men. Sorry, I got distracted there for a moment. If this is a work environment, you should speak to your supervisor. If for whatever reason that's not possible, the best way to do something like that is to approach him in a friendly way and blame yourself: "Excuse me, would you mind doing that in the men's room from now on? I'm sorry, but I have a weak stomach."
  • Just say "Hey, can you do that in the men's room?"
