Do you date another race because you dislike the men of your race or do you just bhappen to like that person who is of another race?
Be honest.
If you're a black women answering please stay away from the " there are no good black guys BS" that's why I date white guys.
Thanks

Honestly, I think it's because growing up, I hang out with people of different ethnic groups. Race has never been a crucial factor but it's amazing when you hang out with different social groups and realised that stereotypes are sometimes true.
For some people, they could be attracted to the whole package. When someone is of a different race, it usually means a different culture, lifestyle or even country. And all this make for an exciting recipe for a relationship (especially if the girl has been dating all e wrong guys from her own race)
If she has been dating wrong guys all of her life. That's an issue with her not the guy. She is either dating too much and she needs to sloooow down or she just selects f#cked up guys!!

Contrary to what some may think, I believe that my preference for white suburban raised educated men is because of the white suburban setting I was raised in. So... I find that I have more in common with those raised like I was. And then there is the matter of my not encountering very many single Asian men in my life travels. When I was into the local rock n rock scene in my city, it was all skinny white guys surrounding me. And the same situation wherever I worked. So not a lot of single Asian guys, let alone any of them asking me out. Well I did work for some Japanese restaurants (and I'm Chinese), but most were married and besides, the majority of them smoked cigarettes which is a major deal breaker for me. In the hotels, I knew some Vietnamese guys, but they were all very petite men. When I was young, Bruce Lee was a big deal, but I didn't care for martial arts movies so he was not crush material for me. I also don't think that my personality suits the average Asian male, either FOB or ABC types. I don't hate Asian men, they just don't turn me on sexually. And while my boyfriend has had some Chinese and Korean friends, none of them had my same life values, some I even thought lacking commonsense and morals.... some of which I attribute to their age. And I don't hate all Asians, I have encountered a couple of really cool Asian women of all ages. Otherwise, I don't go out of my way to avoid Asians, but I also don't make any efforts to encounter more of them.
I don't think of myself as any colour, and I also don't think of myself as white, but that I'm just a regular old American.
Oh, guess I should answer the question. I married outside of my race, but it wasn't an intentional thing. The man I love and who is crazy enough to suit my tastes just happens to be of a different race. Race did not enter into the equation one bit. If he were the same race as me, then that would have been fine, too.
I'd date any nationality or race... because those things don't matter to me. I wasn't raised any certain way... All my experiences with different kinds of people are experiences I learned on my own. I seem to get the most respect from black men honestly, though I've never had a serious relationship with one most of my guy friends growing up and even now are black. I don't judge someone because of how another person from that group acts. It's all about who is the best match for me not what color they are. Just like I wouldn't want to be judged for what I am.
