Alex, you obviously don't speak Chinese and have no knowledge of the culture. Laowai is more likely to be a term of respect, although it can be used in a neutral sense and derogatory.
Its like Laoshi, meaning teacher, and many other titles beginning with lao. It literally means 'old' but age in China is meant to carry respect, so its really a term of respect, (even though the times are changing for the younger generation)
