Why don't people accept that racial preference is racist?

Question

People treat those they're attracted to favorably and this leads to unfair behavior towards women of color. That is racist.

Well, the fact is, the WORLD is racist because of the colonialization of the planet by white Europeans. So anyone NOT a white European has been considered "less than."

This is obvious in all cultures around the globe. Koreans get plastic surgery to make their eyes "round". In India, fair-skinned Indians are considered more beautiful, especially women. Because white Europeans imported Africans as slaves, the world has negated African-based beauty: dark skins, kinky hair, wide noses, big lips.

Native Americans were ON the land Europeans coveted, weren't Christian, weren't cooperative, in general, so the Spanish, French, Portugese, Dutch then the Americans wiped them out, first by the sword and gun, then by the diseases they carried to the natives who had never been exposed to and had no natural immunity to.

Africans were glorified dray-animals since the 1500s. It has only been 158 years since the Emancipation Proclamation, and 66 years since Brown vs. the Board of Education.

Chinese laborers on the railroads of the 1860s West were paid less and treated marginably better than blacks. Japanese Americans were put in internment camps during WWII and their homes, businesses and properties confiscated 80 odd years ago. No German Americans were interned. Or Italian Americans. Because, again, they were European descendents. Not "others."

Eventually, these historic issues will blur into the melting pot and people will see people as human and their differences as unique, not "other" or "less than."

But, choosing someone of your own racial, cultural and religious backgrounds is "safe." THAT is a giant factor behind such choices. You don't buck tradition, parents or baffle friends.

And everyone practices this "racism" because of the history of colonization. It surfaces in colorism, hair texture preferences and so on. It will only die off as people choose each other less because of tradition and more because of attraction. There are more intercultural/interracial/pan-religious couples now than there have ever been.

The wheels of change turn slowly. Remember in the early '60s in the South there were separate bathrooms and WATER FOUNTAINS; few people of any color went to college. The "Loving" couple were hounded by authorities and run out of town because they were married. Those things don't happen anymore. It's bit by bit.

It won't happen in our lifetimes. Maybe by the time our great-grandchildren come around. Look how much it's changed already.

I consider racial preferences and fetish to be the same. Most things around us are build on racism. Accept it and move on

Aethereal · Accepted Answer

Because they refuse to understand the difference between "preference" and "prejudice". Here is an example:

In a choice between Coca Cola and Pepsi, we each have a "preference" for one or the other. In most cases though, if someone who prefers Pepsi can't get it, they will get a Coca Cola instead. This is preference; you favour one thing/feature in something/someone more, but this doesn't prevent you from enjoying the other for some other reason e. g. I prefer Pepsi, but I'd rather drink a cold can of Coca Cola than drink a warm can of Pepsi.

Using the above example again; "prejudice" is when the person who likes Pepsi would rather drink nothing than drink Coca Cola (or something else). This kind of stance is usually taken because of (strongly) held beliefs about the alternative. Prejudice is almost always supported by stereotypes.

Let's bring it back to dating. Dating is not as simple as choosing a drink. There are a large number of features to consider in a potential partner. As such, we tend to have a number of preferences and prejudices.

It is preference when you want to date someone of a specific "race", but would be just as willing to date from a different "race" after considering other factors e. g. personality, other physical features.

It is prejudice (i. e. racist in this case) when one chooses to ignore every other feature of a person in order to disqualify them solely based on their "race"; Essentially implying that no one of that specific "race" could ever possibly have a combination of physical and personality features that would make them attractive as long as they are of that "race". Doesn't that sound sick? Each "race" has hundreds of millions of representatives and yet someone believes that "race" alone cancels out every other possible attractive feature about someone else (including people he/she has never met).

People who keep insisting that their racism is "preference" either do not understand the term, or they want to be racist without being called so (as that is held in a negative view).

OlderAndWiser · Answer

If someone is not attracted to people outside of their race, that means they are racist? So, if someone of another race is not attracted to you, you can call them racist instead of just dealing with the fact that they weren't attracted to you. How easy that makes your life.

You need to define how you are using the word "racism." I believe that racism is a conscious attitude that one race is inferior than another simply because of their race. If I see girls from another race and I am not attracted, I am not thinking that they are inferior. Hell, I think Angelina Jolie is unattractive, but that just means I am not attracted to her. It doesn't mean I have passed judgment on her in any way.

Should I pretend that I am attracted if I am not? If you like guys who are tall, can you consciously make yourself become attracted to guys who are short?

This is just bullshit from the woke crowd attempting to instill social conformity as a part of their dystopian vision for the future.

PS I am Caucasian and living with my Chinese girlfriend. Call me racist and I'll call you names, okay?

MCheetah · Answer

It's discriminatory but not racist. Me being black and being rejected OFTEN by women o all races, I used to think it was, too.

People are not obligated to date or sleep with you. And if any MAN said this, they'd instantly be labeled an incel. Yes, people saying they would NEVER date someone of race X is discrimination, but "racism" would be saying they think all people of race X are inferior, disgusting, and "beneath" them. It involves hate and malice.

Me, for example am not attracted to men. That doesn't make me homophobic. Me not being attracted to transpeople doesn't make me transphobic either (not that that term even means anything anymore; everything is "transphobic" nowadays). And me not wanting to date Muslim women because I think Islam is a horrible and violent ideology may or may not make me "Islamophobic", but I don't think it does, because I condemn the ideology, not the people practicing it since birth who don't know anything else but what they've been taught since childhood.

But like I said, it's some real Femcel level energy to think anyone is obligated to sleep with or date you. Men who'd think this would get shamed and harassed into oblivion. Besides, women are the ones who re more selective and picky with their partners, anyway. A man is under 6'0" tall and you could easily claim women for being Heightist or "Shortphobic" for not being interested in them. Well, I identify as 6'5", bitches! Now have sex with me or you're a bigot, LOL!

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I know what Lv. 2 "woman of color" posted this.

Juan_Curious · Answer

By racial preference do you mean sexual attraction or laboral and social preference?

If you talk about sexuality, well, every person has his own preferences. There are people who are attracted to blonde or dark haired people, to blue or brown eyed people, to black or Asian or caucasian people, to short or tall people. Sexual attraction has NOTHING to do with respect! Although I would say most people are very open tastes. I have been attracted to women from all races, because they were sexy as hell, no matter their hair, eye or skin colour.

Now, if you are talking about social preference (p. ex. excluding a person of different race or origin from the group of friends, without any reason other than their appearance) or laboral discrimination (not hiring a person of different race for that same reason) in that case it certainly is racism.

Finally, I remember a question in some social media asking if black women would date a white man. Most of them were positive, however, there were others who found it a terrible idea, assuring that they would never find a white man attractive enough. As a white man I felt excluded, specially because there are many black women I find attractive and I would date them, but, you know, at the same time I reminded to myself that every person has the right to make his/her own choices without being discriminated for that.

Anonymous · Answer

That's not being racist. I look at it like this. You are not God. You don't know who you're going to end up with. Although some people don't listen to Him. You can say "My type is Asians" or "I don't like white girls because they are basic".

When you are referring to people of color you need to say America or the place YOU live. Where I'm from we respect people's choice of dating. I live in a country where every person is black and about 20% white. I'm black but I'm not african-American because I'm not from the USA. That's why I said you need to be specific on America or anywhere else.

Like the thing with cultural appropriation. Where I'm from (AGAIN NOT THE USA) when we see a white girl with braids we actually love to see it. We think it's cute and they look cute as well with it. WE don't have a problem with it. Same with white boys rocking dreads we don't have a problem with it. We don't mind and we don't care. Again where I reside there is no form of bashing towards people of color. if a boy simply may prefer Latinas or black girls or anything like that. We just mind our business that's all.

In America though, social media has shown me exactly what you're speaking about. To conclude I don't think it's racist if you prefer Brazilians or Black girls or black girls over white girls unless you make any racial comments about either race. If not, then I don't think it's racist.

DJB72 · Answer

I don't find some women attractive. I'm not racist because I don't find female Australian aboriginal women physically attractive. My wife has a friend who's Indian. She's a nice enough person but I don't find her physically attractive. It's not because I'm racist. I'm just not sexually attracted to those women who share certain stereotypically Indian features.

Racial preference in attraction has fuck all to do with being racist. One is how you're biologically wired while the other is how you've been brainwashed by the people and culture you're around.

Cite all the bullshit studies you like. They still won't get me turned on looking at stereotypically Indian women. Or aboriginal.

Racism is a school of thought. A totally fucked up one that suggests melanin in the skin makes someone more or less worthy of a higher rung on a social ladder.

Not getting a hard-on looking at Asian porn just means you're not attracted to those women sexually. That doesn't make you a racist any more than going to church makes you a Christian or sitting in a garage makes you a car.

Sarahr123 · Answer

Tbf I have seen some really good looking Black, Asian and White men. I am generally more drawn towards Indian (all south Asians - includes Afghanistan/India etc) simply for the look but probably because they’re familiar and look like me and what’s familiar is what we find comfort in.

However that is not to say I have never found other types of men good looking. I think some Black men I have seen around were very good looking (no famous examples I can think of) just people I know of personally.

I find White men attractive if they have dark hair and preferably brown or grey eyes and an olive undertone/light-medium skin tone that is similar to my own. I don’t find pale men attractive though in general. And I don’t like blonde hair in men especially.

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

Actually no.

1. People treat friends and family different than others and thats normal, being attracted to a person usually means you would like them to be added into one of those catagories.

2. The assumption that only dark skinned women are effected by sexual preference, is racist and sexist, as it assumes innate inferiority based on race and gender, which is incorrect.

3. The facial and body features of each race are present in individuals of each other race. Human sub species are not as drastically different from eachother as you claim.

4. Sexual preference is not a choice, it is a response to an individual's genetics interacting with stimuli, ie no one gets to choose who they find attractive, anymore than they get to choose what food tastes good in their mouth. Which means sexual preference can't be racist.

Subarugirl · Answer

Hold on just a second... so having a preference on what you find attractive is sexual racism? So wanting a man who is taller than me with green eyes makes me racist against everyone who doesn't look like that... I mean that would makes sexist too then since I am not into women...

Sonorous · Answer

Partiality is always around us. Every day, we use it in even the tiniest of micro-actions. So "preference" always implies that unfairness is involved. How else would we distinguish between what we like and what we don't like?

And such things aren't fixed, black-and-white, linear, or otherwise. There's a range and things can be dynamic relative to what they're being compared to. Which opens the possibility of someone having a preference & not being racist.

I believe they can be mutually exclusive because someone can have a preference and not be prejudiced. So if they don't have any unfair opinions or actions based on unfounded beliefs, then I believe that the preference is justifiable and should not be considered immoral or illegal.

Mango-man · Answer

Because it is not.

By your logic, we could start saying that heterosexuals are sexually discriminating against their own sex because they are attracted to the opposite sex. And that we are discriminating against carrots when we prefer eating (and thus killing) carrots instead of cauliflower.

You can't force people to eat food according to some quota. You can't force homosexual to pretend to be heterosexual and vice versa. And you can't force someone to date people they feel no attraction to, just because of some quota.

TwinTonyz · Answer

If it's considered racist then it's a form of racism which is acceptable. Tuff.

Also what' s the end game? You date someone of a certain race, that makes you racist? Do I need to meet a quota and report it to some kinda authority, or else? The only people who think this is a legitimate problem are bitter and looking for some way to cancel people who don't want them, and people who have so few problems they have to create create conflict so they have something to save people from; like an arsonist fireman or God.

sunshineglow · Answer

It's not racist. One can't choose who's he less or more attracted to. If I don't like that or that hairstyle, type of body, face etc is that chauvinistic? Or I just can't control what I am naturally more attracted to? So that's a preference. Same thing with race. Some white men prefer women of colour. Some prefer white. What is there to blame? What is there to poke politics or judgment onto? That's a private inner thing, like what kind of scent, colour, things, food, style or whatever else, person prefers. It has nothing to do with intentional chauvinism or racism. Don't do that, don't stirr conflicts over something very irrelevant.

hahahmm · Answer

Nope. But why is it only butt ugly women who make these kinds of arguments? And I'm not saying they have to be ugly on the outside. They might just be ugly on the inside. Either way they're not attractive to a huge percentage of the male gender. Then she has to find something to blame this lack of attraction on. Culture plays a huge role in compatibility. Just for one example: If you have a hardcore loud mouthed feminist tude, don't expect a guy who didn't grow up with a mom like that to be into it. And even a lot of the guys who had moms like that aren't into it.

lightbulb27 · Answer

people don't want to be labeled as "a bad person" or doing something illegal. reality is, most people have biases and preferences. It isn't just against people of color, but everyone to some degree. I think people of color... maybe because of the color contrast, social behaviors, recent history, or media... I'm not sure which... are more aware of the issues... and it is appears more severe. Culture is a stronger factor in preference.

"race" is a factor, but it's not the only factor... is one among many in assessing qualities of a person.

GaGirls · Answer

Because they don't understand what racism fully means. People focus solely on the nightmare side of racism and they never understand fully what racism is. We know most people are racist in some manner because through testing we have found this to be true. But a lot of people will reject what I am saying and never go search for a deeper understanding of racism. There are many words in the dictionary that you understand but have never seen the definition to. There are many words you have seen the definition too but don't understand or fully understand.

Genoside · Answer

A lot of the replies are trashing the asker, but I think I get what she’s saying here. The point she’s trying to make is that racism is sometimes OK.

We’ve developed a knee-jerk opposition to racism because some very bad historical figures were racists, like Margaret Sanger and Adolf Hitler. But you know what? Some really awesome historical figures were racist too, like Ben Franklin and Abraham Lincoln.

Yeah, sometimes racism is used to justify bad things, like school segregation or ethnic cleansing. But sometimes it’s as harmless as preferring to date white women, or to patronize black-owned businesses.

So don’t assume that racism is always bad. As the asker points out, it can sometimes be fine.

MelaninQueen21 · Answer

Although I would say kinda is... technically it is!

I don't have a preference when it comes to my future boyfriend/husband. Although I wouldn't mind dating the same race, I'd prefer to date/marry outside my own. I grew up in a diverse community/neighborhood and I've always been exposed to different cultures.

Now, although I'd prefer my man to be olive/tan skin complected, have ocean/sky blue eyes and curly dark hair, that doesn't mean that I won't be attracted to anyone else who doesn't possess these features.

doopayo · Answer

Because most people only recognize racism on an individual level and not the social/political/eve mimic/systemic level that is reality. Racial preferences are usually rooted in a bigger issue, but no one wants to address that in fear of being labeled a racist

Most people are idiots. And I mean it with conviction.
The term race means competition.
The term -ism means the study of or doctrine.
Anything else that’s affiliated to the term and spelling is used improperly. Some people don’t know what they’re talking about but uses certain words to one up eachother. Society is filled with imbeciles and ignorant people who want to feel better by talking down on others by using the level of skin color, ethnicities, and dialects of a person or people to their selfish advantage.

Those who live by the sword die by the sword.

Nothing outside of yourself will make you smarter, stronger, attractive, wiser, or richer. It all comes from within. So don’t let nobody else tell you you’re not attractive. On this planet, there is always someone for somebody.

Anonymous · Answer

You know as a white man there are some black women I’m more attracted to vs. other white women. Notice how I said “some”.

With that said attraction is not a choice. You either feel attracted to someone (to varying levels) or you don’t. If you try to force yourself into dating someone you are not attracted to it’s going to be a miserable relationship.

So saying it’s “racist” that some men aren’t attracted to black women is a huge stretch. If can justify that then how about trans women trying to force cis gendered men into dating them (there is already a push behind that crap). Or worse about someone trying to force you into a homosexual relationship?

Just don’t go there with the “racism” angle. It’s a cheap shot. I actually had a very bad (and scary) experience with this last year. It would of had “metoo” written all over it if the genders were reversed.

Hellraiser1984 · Answer

You can date anyone you want but there may come consequences. If you want to call it a fetish to only date someone of the same race fine. But it is not racist. I only date white, Asian and Hispanic. I am white so what. There are some very beautiful African women, but I feel that their families would dissaprove of me more than the races I mentioned. I would not date a Muslim woman for the same reason. Also our children may be rejected. So why take the chance on something that's probably never going to work. I love redheads too.

That's like saying "it's racist for makeup brands to make makeup with different shades of natural skin tones because they're making certain tones for some races and different tones for other races, thus, they're treating races differently, thus, they're racist.

People can't control who they're attracted to and who they're not attracted to. Just because someone has a preference for a particular race doesn't make that person a racist. I'm not attracted to guys that are significantly shorter than me. Does that make me a heightist? No

Kaneki05 · Answer

It is.
But it don't hurt anyone and it's personal choice for a person to date who they want therefore no one calls it racist because it don't have the connotation to bullying with it.
Example, Your not belittling someone just cause you have had more Asian girlfriend's because you are more attracted to them. Therefore no one see's it as a problem which it isn't.

Racism is treating another person differently because of the colour of their skin, it has nothing to do with if you are attracted to them or not.

Okay. What should we do about it?

To change the behavior based on attraction, we would have to change the attraction. But attraction is not quick, or simple, or easy to change. It is mostly formed in childhood, and it is even partly genetic.

How would you suggest that adults change their attraction, and what should they change it to?

I don't know why you're making it seem like people of color don't have their preferences also. Are THEY racist?

Well I think a man's perspective is obviously different from a woman's, but I don't necessarily feel it's racist. I have been turned down by women who tell me they only date black men.

Anyway I'm glad that they reject me because I'm living for a real relationship.
