Why do most people prefer to date within their own race? (Page 2)

Question

If you live in a multicultural society, the options for who you'd like to date are much more diverse and varied. You are surrounded by every type of skin color, and every color combination of hair and eyes that exist. You can eat any type of food, and have a better insight into other people's culture and way of life. So something I often wonder is why do the majority of people still prefer to date within their own race. Is it because they are genuinely more attracted to them? Is it to maintain and carry on their culture and pass it down onto their kids? Is it because their parents/society expects them to? Or something else? I personally only want to date outside my race, although I do find my own race attractive. And my reason is simply based on my preference on looks. What about you?

If I were to date at all, which I won't I'm MGTOW. Though if I were to, I would date within my own race because I have everything in common with those within my own race.

Personally I think dating only your own race is absolutely boring. I'm white and currently so in love with a black guy

It's no surprise that people tend to prefer partners of similar cultural and ethnic... most men and women often prefer dating someone of their own race.

Anonymous · Answer

I think there's already a connection when both people are the same race. I think it can be harder to connect with people of a different race if you didn't grow up around that race.
