You're a troll.

Maybe this is best expressed in the form of a question. There are a lot of black men who prefer to date white women.

Are they racist and/or self haters?

I'm seriously out this time.

You are ridiculous.

Do you see why racial preferences are racist
Who cares?

Would also call the men who prefer black women over white women racists, too?

I'm calling the troll police. Nobody can really be this dense. If I had a racial preference (which I don't), it would be that white people are more attractive than black people TO ME. It's MY preference.

I wouldn't find people unattractive BECAUSE they're black, but BECAUSE I don't find them attractive.

What about this are you not getting?
You're also getting angry. They say that when people get angry when when someone calls them a racist, they are definitely racist.

Why get angry and disprove my point. If you were genuinely an open minded individual you would've tried to understand my point of view. See why you may have racist tendencies and work to correct yourself.

Er, no.

Racism, as it is historically understood, is the oppression of a group of people based on the color of their skin. It is also the conscious or unconscious animosity or hostility that one group might have for another. If one regards another race as inferior to their own, that's racism. If someone doesn't like blacks or X ethnicity simply due to their ethnicity, it makes them prejudice and a bigot, not "racist." Racist is a very strong word to throw around, and should not be thrown around willy-nilly.

I am a bi-racial woman, black and white. I primarily date white men. I am more sexually attracted to white men. However, I do find men of other ethnicities attractive. My father, in his adult years, almost exclusively dated black women. He likes black women, hence why he chose my mother and stepmom. My black uncles (mom's brothers) married white women.

I have always had a preference for white men, and not due to some sort of conditioning or indoctrination. I have grown up in ethnically and culturally diverse areas (Seattle, Nor and So Cal), so it has nothing to do with my environment or lack of exposure to different cultures or ethnicities.

So while this isn't explicit or blatant racism, it is still racism on another level. Maybe deep and buried, maybe subtle, but it is there.
Thank you

The thing is, I did. You are very much entitled to your point of view, as ridiculous as it is.

And I'm not angry, I would call it "bemused."

I just don't understand people who have this default victim mentality.

Call me a racist all you like, it really doesn't bother me. Your misguided opinion, as a total stranger on the internet, is worth its weight in horse flop to me.

Oh, and I would choose Sanaa over Jennifer any day. I don't find Jennifer Anniston to be what many claim her to be. I mean, she's attractive, but compared to others, nah, not my type.

I can see this thread being closed soon. That said, there are attractive people in all races.

Actually I'd like to amend my statement. I am getting angry, but it's not because I'm a racist. Its because you are attempting to make people feel guilty or have something to be ashamed of in their dating preferences. You have absolutely no right to do that.

I guess I kind of am racist. I am only attracted to latina, asian, middle eastern, and african women. I have never been much attracted or have ever wanted to get with white women.
