First of all insecurity and depression runs ramped among women of all races.

Advice...
My bf has a friend (white guy) who only dates African American women. He had a lot of the same issues, until he changed the type of women he sought out. He dated a lot of girls he met at bars, and clubs in the city (a lot of promoters etc) and was finding them all to have complex's about being seen around town (predominantly AA community) with a white man, and some of the other issues you mentioned above. SO...he changed his approach. Started meeting women through a local college, coffee shops, community events and he found himself not having these particular types of issues. (Not saying there weren't still issues)

I don't know if this would apply to you or not, but it seems to have worked out better for him.

O.K. let's say there's person #1:

I'm a white female and I only date Asian men, Japanese specifically... Black and White men don't turn me on. What does that make me?

There's person #2:

I'm a Black male and I only date Black women, white women and women of other races don't do it for me. What does that make me?

There's person #3:

I'm a female I date whoever I want regardless of where on the planet they come from. I could date someone from France as easily as someone from Zimbabwe or Korea. What does that make me?

Here's your answer:

Person #1, and #2 are racists. They only date people according to racial criteria. Person #3 is not a racist, they date whoever without respect to someone's ethnic or "so called racial" background.

Here's a sweeping generalization for ya:

1. All French people can cook.

2. All French people hate Americans that don't speak French in their country.

3. All French men have mistresses.

(on second thought #2 might be true )

Exactly. But people just want to throw around racism. They don't want to hear your preferences because if you mention race or ethnicity, all hell breaks loose. Emotions start running high.

Well you and everybody else can call me racist all you want, I still prefer non-American black women. I know what is best for my life. But I truly do wish AA women the best of luck in their dating life.

Oh, you still haven't answered my question. Am I sexist for only dating women? Because I am only focusing on one gender. Or does gender gets a pass but not race?

You are immature.

The concept of RACE is man made. People should be looking at individuals not skin color or ethnicity. If someone has a preference for whatever physical trait that turns them on in another person - that is superficiality. And something that people need to get beyond. Along with stop perpetuating racism and dealing in racial terms. You don't date a race, you date an individual and if someone is dating specifically based on reasons of race that makes them a racist. Plain and simple.
