I think it's racist. And this type of racism is typically found in the South. The reason they are not attracted to a person of a different race almost has nothing to do with the person's appearance and mostly with how they will be perceived in public or how well they will be accepted or fit in, all of which are racist reasons. I knew plenty of Caucasian people in the South that found people of a different race attractive but wouldn't date them for societal reasons. Interracial dating is not well accepted in the South. There are attractive people of all races and I think a non-racist person can recognize that whereas a racist person refuses to acknowledge that and will generalize that they can't find someone attractive of a specific race.
For me, skin color has nothing to do with a person I chose to marry. It has to do with culture. I need the same or very similar culture. I have rejected dating someone who's culture is too far from mine. It had nothing to do with racism.
^^ Agree completely!! Having grown up happily in educated middle class suburbia, I have no interest in dating and having relationships with men who I have no common culture, values or morals with.

All my girlfriends in East Texas were white. So was my wife...
Of the only two white women I've ever heard say they don't date outside their race, one was in Indiana and one is in Virginia.
I'm friends with both and one asked me to be a god parent to their kids.
WHy does everything have to be about race? There are definitily certain races I dont find attractive at all and therefore would not date them, does that make me racist? Its not only about finding people attractive or not, its about cultural differences. I have friends that love dating those outside of their race and it works for them. I am very traditional on the other hand and like women that have the same likes/dislikes etc.. as myself. Culture plays a big part in all of this and even though there are many women of a different races I find attractive I would never date them.

I don't date outside my race because one particular race has endlessly treated me as an OBJECT to be used as they please, and as a trophy white b*tich to brag about to their buddies while abusing us in front of them. I don't date outside my race because I've seen so many women of my own race treated like trash by men of other races, as though we were a trophy to be shown off to men of their race and viciously abused for the sake of a masculine EGO TRIP!
Once again, I have more self-respect than that.
She's making this s**t up as she goes along.
