Your issue is not if it is ethnic or not, but is it worth to go to that presentation, and has great chance to meet some sales person that intend to hurt your feeling.

I agree with Jya-Ning ... they try to say it's an owner update and give you a check list of topics you are interested in hearing about. Then the salesmen shows up without that checklist and proceeds to look over you ownership transcript (and they even printed out my current points status). After drilling me about why I wasn't interested in owning that resort vs. the resort(s) I own at, the salesmen said you know the drill ... if you don't have any other questions and aren't interested in purchasing, we're done (it only took about 30 minutes).
I will most likely stop going to these at FF, since I'm not interested in additional points now and - as Jya-Ning mentioned - I don't appreciate them insinuating that certain benefits are subject to change in the future. I tell them they're only hurting their own sales by taking away owner benefits and owners will be less likely to buy or trust them in the future. I don't give them Trip Rewards referrals because I feel that the resorts sell themselves and I wouldn't appreciate cold calls from people I don't know.
I went to a presentation on Kona at Shell and was out in about an hour with $200 cash. I kept grilling the saleman trying to compare what he's stating vs. what I know about RCI and FF's system. They didn't even bother showing me their models. I actually wanted to see them, but didn't want to buy from them.
