That's a perfect analogy.

You're right, being called 'white' is in an insult, when ever some black co-workers start talking about something I don't know about (even the other white co-workers know what they are talking about) and i ask them what they are talking about, they just shake thier heads and laugh saying "Dam you're so white!"
