Well I am a 26 year old virgin myself, so hey we aren't too different on one thing. Besides the reason I remained a virgin is because most women I found in my life usually were very trashy, prejudiced, close minded, etc etc and I didn't want to have anything with them.

Yeah, it isn't possible that something is wrong with you or your attitude.

No it usually doesn't go that far, women look at me and realize I belong to a race that they hate and then give me the stink eye, so attitude/personality and all that don't even come into the picture.

Ahhhh...people who blame their race for their lack of attractiveness to the opposite sex...like women who blame the fact that they're dark skinned...

The point is, if you're attractive you're attractive, if you're not you're not. Doesn't matter what your race or skin color. I'm a black woman who is likely darker than you.

You think Hrithik Roshan has a hard time getting dates?

Hrithik Roshan is rich and famous, so there's no comparison. Also, if he were an average guy in US right now he would perhaps lie about his background and say he were Italian or something because I know a few who do that.

Also, attraction is mostly race oriented, some races are deemed more attractive than others, and I belong to one that's deemed least attractive and not even part of the social/dating circle, so there's no point in even trying as far as I am concerned.

I think if I had trouble dating within a country I would consider moving back to my home country to find someone with similar values, culture and tastes.

Ever thought about moving back home ? If not, it's totally you.

He's rich and famous because he's ridiculously good looking.

Like I said, if you're attractive you're attractive. If you're not, you're not.

But it's so much easier to blame others for our shortcomings.

Of course.

It's so much easier to say, society doesn't find men of a certain race attractive or society doesn't find women of a certain skin color attractive than to say I'm not attractive.

That's not to say racism or colorism don't exist, but when people have ascribed to it their entire misfortune in the dating world my red flags go up.

And I say this as a non-light skinned black female.
