/sigh and if you like Asians you have yellow fever, and if you like black you have jungle fever, oh and don't forget if your a black guy you want a blond.

Ever notice how diversity is only needed for White people? If someone in China only dates Chinese people or someone in the Congo only dates other Africans there's no problem.
White people prefer white people. It’s nothing to be ashamed of.
OkCupid published crosstabs on this a few years back on their blog. The general takeaway seems to be a stronger in-group preference down the line and a weaker universal preference for caucasian men and asian or caucasian women among out-groups. Of course that all being statistical and not always filtering down to individuals. I think all of us living in diverse areas have met people who will only date folks from a specific race not their own.

Being positive is a good idea generally, and also here in particular. If you're going to say anything at all. There are two good strategies:
1. Say what you like - this will filter out those you don't mention* and people with far-left views
2. Say nothing - manually filter
Saying what you don't like will filter out anyone left of center, which unless that's what you are trying to do is probably not what you want.
*This will backfire if you only list one group and it's not your own because this comes off as creepy.
That is what is currently happening and someone, who exactly I’m not sure, is objecting. They apparently don’t think you should have preferences.
I had a good friend who had a thing for red hair and blue eyes, she didn’t prefer white people, she preferred a specific type of white person. How is that any different than having a preference for skin hue, or certain shaped eyes, or types of hair? People should be entitled to restrict, based on whatever criteria they want, who they will or will not date, mate, or marry.

Nationalists, who are just socialists with right-wing social views.

And let mother nature and natural selection sort it out, not leftist with their dysgenic policies .
