You might just want to exclaim you have a preference and stop with the blanket statements because you might not be a racist but you do cone off ignorant. white brown tan extra dark. Albino shouldn't have anything to do with what your after directly let me explain if you are saying that for instance the man you most recently dated would not be attractive to you had the pigment of his skin been as light as yours then you have a fetish and why you have a fetish is ttpically linked to some irrational taboo beleif fantasized about and built upon an absolute direct defiance to whoever assisted in shapeing your mind and moral circuutry because it shouldn't have any impact on you one way or another whether or not someone is or is not black now you like what you like nothing wrong with that i dont judge anyone for nothing you do you or you lnow what i mean if your after satisfaction for the stigma then dissapointment will fall on you and if your about satisfying social awareness. , or about the thug persona or the stereotypes or racial and cultural ideologies or bias preferance... If your curious. about what it is that prevents you from finding attraction to a guy who shares your pigment its the comoany you keep around yourself and its the image you gravitate towards its the role model you hold in your head you know the one you wish that you were that role model in your head keeps you from being able to let each person just be themselves eo your ego and your desires limita you and unless you think its a problem and would like to not contribute ignorance further in your life in regards to self responciibility to get to knowing yourself loving yourself and then represent with comfort not confusion not ignorantly. Good luck you aren't racist unless you know you are

Nope.
I am attracted to guys who look totally different from me.
There’s something about the difference that excites me, I am white brunette dark brown eyed, in my family everyone else has blue/green eyes other than my dad.
I tend to be attracted to blond blue eyes guys and from my experience they like me as well.
And when I traveled to Asia, I found out I am also attracted to Asian guys.
Both of then look different from me and that’s what makes me attracted to them,
for the black men I can’t say much, I haven’t been exposed to them enough, being from Eastern Europe, you can’t see many black guys here.00 Reply

Racist? No. But i’d question how you can’t find even one guy of your own race attractive enough to date someday. Sure there's preferences but in the back of my mind, I’d think you kinda hate being the race you are. Thats just personally what goes through my head when i hear people say stuff like that. They get all self-hating and act ashamed of what they are. But hopefully thats not your case... I have dated some of every ethnicity/race but I will always love my own just as equally if not as much. Thats just me personally 🤷♀️

I’m extremely attracted to Chinese guys physically but culturally and morally, we’re not compatible cause I’m too religious for the average Asian guy.
00 Reply 313 opinions shared on Dating topic. Ofcourse not. Rascism has nothing to do with the persons who you are attracted to or not.
Rascism is when you minor a certain race and considering them as less important or less worthy then other races. We are all humans with the same basic needs in life to no race is biggerz better, stronger or more important then other races! We are all equal! When you are a rascist you say things or do things to a certain race because you feel like they are a minority compared to your own race but it has nothing to do with being attracted to certain races or not00 Reply- +1 y
Nope , it does not make u a racist. But thinking or saying sth about them like they are bad , they do not deserve living , I hate them , I wish them to die of suffering of sth , they all are the same or so on... makes u a bloody racist at the maximum level. The other things are ur preferences u can be attracted to one person's appearances much more than the other one , that can be normal , at least not a wrong thing to me if u do not differentiate or differ them from the other people. But u fistly need to pay attention to the people's personality , I think , cuz in every race we may find the people we could be attracted to , but when it comes to personality we could also find it but their amount is really really limited or low anymore , unlike the past , unfortunately. So the rarer a thing is the more precious it is , almost always in a good way , right?
00 Reply Your not a racist and it's ok to have preference of other race attractions but at the same time don't rely on your preference because you can miss out by finding the One for you and learn to have an open mind to give others a chance especially if you getting approached by your own race (sometimes it takes time). I am African American male, I love all cultures races of women, and I use to date outside my race (I dated mostly Caucasian woman) a whole lot because black women were hard to get back then and I gave up on them for a while but now I am engaged to an African woman because she is the one.

Lol no. Being a racist would mean you discriminate against your race (or other races). You oppress them, wants to murder them for fun, vote for a political party that passes laws taking their rights away, etc
Racial preferences aren’t racist. They may have racist undertones (depending). You know based on the past and all but overall, still not racist
You’re fine. You can be physically attracted to whoever you like. And it definitely isn’t the end of the world10 Reply - +1 y
You can be attracted to whom ever you choose to be attracted to.
Also attraction can change over time. As you grow older and mature. Change as a person, your likes, dislikes change. So just go with it, don’t worry so much.
Your not hurting anyone. As long as the people you like and are attracted to are treating you well and with respect, it doesn’t matter if they are white, brown, purple or green!
It’s all about happiness!00 Reply Look to me only dating within our race is kind of like taking a kid to a ice cream shop and forcing them to vanilla ice cram on a plain cone. Sure some people are fine with vanilla ice cram on a plain cone and that's fine for them. But if you want to try a different flavor ice cram or cone, do it.

no it doesn't, and if it does, it who cares. if's your life.
where that comes from might be interesting exploration. If you had trauma with other races, maybe you trauma bonded to them. Attraction is sub conscious, not always good. Maybe it's genetics at work. often opposites draw so someone very light my draw to someone darker as example.
As long as it isn't a problem for you then whatever. If it's something you want to change about yourself, then you have to dig deeper.00 Reply People will try to pick this apart and maybe make it sound like you are my opinion is no you're not you like what you like and there's nothing wrong with that you are not ignorant do you believe in what you believe in for a reason and that you should be happy no matter what that is not racism that is love toward yourself and anybody else that you love

Example;
I am "Black". Not racially, but culturally. I am African-American. I don't share much with folks in Haiti who may be dark-skinned. Or folks who are dark-skinned from France. I grew up in a specific culture with a specific history.
Race cannot speak to that.
If you are attracted to guy of a certain skin color, that is one thing.
Example;
Kim Kardasshian has always said she was attracted to guys of a certain skin complexion. Dark skin. That ain't race either. That is being attracted to a phenotype. Not a race. Race as defined in America is kind of like a bunch of nonsense thrown together for political reasons.

I am trolling you? Are you saying that just because you believe in race, that makes it scientifically proven? You have to figure out what race means. But if you keep trying to claim it is some objective arbitrary grouping mechanism, I am going to call bullshit. Most folks think culture equals race.
Uhm. . .
www.americananthro.org/.../Content.aspx
In the United States both scholars and the general public have been conditioned to viewing human races as natural and separate divisions within the human species based on visible physical differences. With the vast expansion of scientific knowledge in this century, however, it has become clear that human populations are not unambiguous, clearly demarcated, biologically distinct groups. Evidence from the analysis of genetics (e. g., DNA) indicates that most physical variation, about 94%, lies within so-called racial groups. Conventional geographic "racial" groupings differ from one another only in about 6% of their genes. This means that there is greater variation within "racial" groups than between them. In neighboring populations there is much overlapping of genes and their phenotypic (physical) expressions. Throughout history whenever different groups have come into contact, they have interbred. The continued sharing of genetic materials has maintained all of humankind as a single species. - +1 y

You can be genetically black and be born White but that is what we call a mutation it is an outliier?"
then you said;
"Just because a race is named after a color does not mean everyone of that race is going to be of that color"
So in the history of the world there isn't a person whom has been more confused. You don't know if "Black" people are defined by skin color or not. I am not concerned why other cultures reject me. I am concerned if other "Black" people accept me for being "Black" or not.
The physical differences between African-Americans is striking, whether or not a weird troll on the net can see those differences or not. This panel has folks of many different skin complexions. They are all "Black" or identify with African-American Culture. Because our identity is build off a history, a tradition, and the experiences of a group of people.

@Tornado92 Well, I am not here to play games with trolls on the net. I just wanted to state that race was nonsense and show the actual scientific proof. The AAA is the largest body of Anthropologists in the world. They have repeatedly said there is no scientific basis for race.
"Ultimately "race" as an ideology about human differences was subsequently spread to other areas of the world. It became a strategy for dividing, ranking, and controlling colonized people used by colonial powers everywhere. But it was not limited to the colonial situation. In the latter part of the 19th century it was employed by Europeans to rank one another and to justify social, economic, and political inequalities among their peoples. During World War II, the Nazis under Adolf Hitler enjoined the expanded ideology of "race" and "racial" differences and took them to a logical end: the extermination of 11 million people of "inferior races" (e. g., Jews, Gypsies, Africans, homosexuals, and so forth) and other unspeakable brutalities of the Holocaust." - +1 y

@Tornado92 Well, I run into racism in my own discussion group. It is just the way it is.
