the thing is that most, not all but most, people who have a preference, are actually not completely closed off to other races, but would prefer one.
as u said, anyone who is completely closed off to a particular race is just downright racist, there's no doubt about that. As long as u keep an open heart and an open mind, everything is fine.
No, that's different @ted22 because then it's about attractive features not being present or unattractive features being present. The race is an indirect cause.
@ted22 There's no way on Earth a non racist person can say "I don't like a certain race because of their race's features". Yea, because all people from the same race look alike, load of hot cowshit.
-I have my degree -I have a career -I often wear suits and dress nice -I take care of myself and workout -I am not ghetto at all -I have been told I look like a model
YET... the only type of women that seem to like me are hoodrats or bbw women, which aren't my type at all.
Recently... I have noticed that a lot of black women want white guys... not just want them... THEY CRAAAAVVVVEEE a white guy.
I am not sure why this is. It seems like the only time black men get good looking women of all different races is when they are famous.
This makes sense. I found "men being racist to other men than women to other women" & "women being racist to men than men being racist to women" ridiculously true.
Media, Hollywood, Pop culture and colonial history, everything has a fair share in fostering the racism and changing the mentality of the people, especially infants.
I'm a South Asian + East Asian mixed. My life is ruined. (Lol kidding) I liked the video too. The statistics seem pretty accurate and direction is excellent.

Racial preference being influence by media is actually quite true. In North America their is an undertone that white is right. While in other parts of the world where media is less influence by hollywood, other ethnic features are praised among the masses as ideal beauty.
I believe their was a girl who went abroad to Japan or whatever (can't remember exact) but her racial preference change after staying in the country for a long time.

Just want to add to this:
western/white supremacist culture has lead me to believe there is a "status symbol" given to the attainment of ATTRACTIVE (key word, attractive, lord knows I ain't going near any fat white girl) white women. Why they're everywhere. The media is a constant barrage of white european beauty standards. As someone who consumed as much non black media as black media this repitition has a profound effect the psyche. Its exactly why sexual preference is not something which we "cant help". Many aspects are very much learned.
As I age though I can say I do have a strong affinity for dark skinned African women.
Congratulations for exposing yourself as a complete cuck. Of course it is only racist when white people don't want to date a certain race, right? When black lives matter activists say that they date only inside their race it is cool and natural, to name an example. If I am a racist because I only date inside my race then I am proud to be one. What else can you expect from liberal retards who are programmed to act and think as the system demands?
See that's what is, racism stops as a social evil when everyone has equal rights. You cannot call person a racist based on their preferences. That's a freedom. Women are always more selective than men, a few have them even have outrageous preferences. Most women like tall men, what can the short men do? Hold the women responsible? Hold the tall guys responsibile? No man. Its just the way it is. Its a preference. No need to make it racist.
A lot of white women love black men, but then you make a good point about women being more racist because you don't often see women being as open to dating other races, so yeah it could be true.
However, I'm not sure I'd say women have lots of options as men are more desirable on a global scale, particularly western men, whereas western women are not as sought after by foreign men.

Race is just a really visible proxy for social status, that's all.
Take a Greek guy and make a dating profile. Now take the same exact person, but mention that he's Syrian or Middle Eastern. You'll get significantly different responses.
Most of the racial issues in dating are due to unconscious stereotypes created by racist media portrayals and a lack of exposure to people of different races.
Cue the white whine below :^)

I've dated black men before and those experiences keep me from doing so anymore. I've dated a couple hood types who lived up to the stereotype exactly and also educated, wealthier black men. The thing about the latter is that they are still heavily influenced by black media and, regardless of the fact they grew up well off, still act out hood stereotypes especially when with friends. It's just too much for me. "Nigga" gets old fast.

And for the record my preference has nothing to do with physical features, I find many black men attractive, it is their collective attitudes that turn me off.
@BangBadBxtches I said DATED as in past tense as in not any more. I assumed it was the hood upbringing that made them act the way they did until I tried dating black men from "good" families. Still the same attitude. Still a turnoff.
having a racial preference is not excluding. and hardly anyone who has a racial preference excludes. I've only ever daten white guys. would i date a black dude or hispnic dude? sure but im more into white guys
You must have really bad opinions, Japanese and Thai are the same race but they don't look alike, southern white Europeans are the same race as Scandos yet they don't look alike, Ethiopians are black but they don't look like African Americans.
I already know that. I specifically mentioned people who claim that they will not date a person of a certain race. Because there are many people out there who do exclude groups and make such statements. Nowhere did i say that having a racial preference is bad or anywhere near the same thing as excluding a race.
I agree and disagree , you see more women dating outside their ethnicity than you do men. Especially white women who are known to date outside, marry and have children with non white men specifically black men. hence the amount of biracial children we have today. Men however minus black men don't really racecourse there ethnicity. Hispanic men generally date Hispanic women due to cultural reasons, it can't be race because Hispanic isn't a racial group.
This is wrong, men are actually more likely to be open to date other races. It is far more common for white men to date Asian women compared to white women dating black men for example, in places where all of these racial groups co-inhabit in large numbers.
>White women usually don't give a fuck what color you are >Black women usually like black dudes over white dudes >White men hate black men because inferiority complex >Black men hate white men because they shoot at them for no reason >Asian women and men dont care >Mexicans prefer other Mexicans but will take what they can get >Arabs are monocultural as fuck and most races hate them
@LilWeezey Really? I'm in CT, there aren't many Hispanics here and the ones that are kinda stick together. I was just generalizing based on my own observations
I'm half white but I won't really date white guys. I'm not racist to half of myself, I'm not racist to what is one of my parents race. I love both sides of me, i just don't find some skin tones attractive. I need to be attracted to date, and white skin doesn't do that for me, it's a bit of a turn off... Unless they're extremely tan or something, but even then, not so much. I'm not racist, just not attracted.

Make sense that we women are more SELECTIVE than men. It is just the way we are wired, get it? I am in CA and I see women and men dating different races. Actually I see white guys that are crazy for Asian women. This was a surprise to me because where I come from, Asian are not hot at all. I like all races, I was crazy for Spanish, then AA and now I am back to white which is the race I liked when I was growing up. I am white Spanish girl. south American, european descendent.

Well if excluding one specific group makes me racist, then I guess I'm a racist against women with pixie cuts, obese women, annoying vegans and women who wear flip-flops all the time.
Completely excluding something solely for aesthetic reasons is never racist. You would never call me a racist for refusing to ever date a woman with facial hair or a woman with terrible hair.
all individuals of a certain race do not look the same, in fact they can look extremely different from one another, i have a hard time believing anyone is so picky that they find small traits like for example east Asian type eyes to be enough to make all of them attractive, especially since all east Asians dont even have those kinds of eyes.
I guess I have to go out and date someone from a race I personally don't find attractive, so I'm not called a ''Racist.''

It Is Not Racist To Be Attracted To A Certain Race And Or Unattracted To A Certain Race. Everyone Is Entitled To Be Attracted Their Race Prefrence Without Being Called A Racist. You're Not Saying You Hate Or Dislike Them Due To Their Race, You're Just Not Attracted To Them.

I'm open minded when it comes to my taste in men. I've dated black, latina and white men. I do prefer white men but that isn't because I'm racist. It's just I'm more attracted to white men then other races.
did you even read the mytake? i clearly mentioned that having a preference is okey and normal, but if you specifically avoid a whole race and are against dating them then thats a whole different thing.

@BangBadBxtches look alike lol
@ted22 What?
A majority of women prefer white men anyway.
I'm a black guy:

would i date a black dude or hispnic dude? sure
but im more into white guys
I also disagree that physically race means nothing. In most cases in my opinion people of one race look quite similar.
Also I date not my race because I think its more racist to date inside your race than way out of it.
You must have really bad opinions, Japanese and Thai are the same race but they don't look alike, southern white Europeans are the same race as Scandos yet they don't look alike, Ethiopians are black but they don't look like African Americans.
@BangBadBxtches
Hence why I said in most cases.
That's still completely wrong.
@BangBadBxtches
Not really.
At least where I from majority of races look a like here.
Especially if they are within the same category per say
If you're in Asia, I can understand that but anywhere else, naw.
@BangBadBxtches
Well that's a matter of opinion. Ain't it.
Not everyone sees the same way.
And some people do look extremely similar

>Black men hate white men because they shoot at them for no reason
>Asian women and men dont care
>Mexicans prefer other Mexicans but will take what they can get
>Arabs are monocultural as fuck and most races hate them
Just summed up race relations right there
I must not be Mexican then.
I definitely do NOT prefer other mexicans
@LilWeezey Really? I'm in CT, there aren't many Hispanics here and the ones that are kinda stick together. I was just generalizing based on my own observations
Yea.
I dont date my own.
One of the reasons being at least where I am [Chicago] Mexicans are very stick to your own and kinda racist.
I love interracial relationships especially romantic ones. So I refuse to date my own.
I'm half white but I won't really date white guys. I'm not racist to half of myself, I'm not racist to what is one of my parents race. I love both sides of me, i just don't find some skin tones attractive. I need to be attracted to date, and white skin doesn't do that for me, it's a bit of a turn off...

your examples are not comparable.
I say those gals are racist, because on the guy's race alone,
and not the content of his character or the culture (s) he is a part of and associates with,
disqualifies him.

That shit racist as fuck.
However, not finding a person of XYZ race/ethnicity physically attractive isn't racist. Attraction can't be helped.
I guess I have to go out and date someone from a race I personally don't find attractive, so I'm not called a ''Racist.''

There's a difference between the racist "I don't date a certain race" and the PREFERENCE "I tend to date white or black or hispanic, etc..."
Get. It. Right.
