If your game is tight, you'll have no problem, bias or not.

Yup again.

But some people here refuse to see that and continue to be wrong...

She'll get a lot of politically correct answers to make her feel better. I don't like to lie.

I'm a white guy who, despite having an ethnicity that sometimes has olive skin, does not. I am only attracted to white women who have white skin, not even olive skin. I've never dated a Latina, so why go even darker? Why waste their time if you're not attracted to them? It's a matter of taste and that's largely preprogrammed.

It's getting a lot better due to the internet and media images of hot Asian guys. Guys like this...

And this...

There are some non-Asian women out there these days who actually prefer Asian men. Back in the day, if you were a white woman who preferred Asian men, you'd be some kind of total freak.

Beauty is all media driven...

It's a matter of taste and that's largely a result of your exposure to media, your background, and the best that you think you can get.
Fixed...

Well I can only speak for myself, and yes I would date a dark black woman as long as she met my standards which actualy matter. In fact I find some dark black women very attractive.

They prefer women who are lighter, but they'll date dark skin black women

There are all kinds of dating bias. But I wouldn't worry about the men that don't dig you but focus on the ones that do.

This post should be on all the threads about bias: the bald guy thread, the short guy thread, the women's "athletic or curvy?" thread, etc. This is a great post!

And you speak for everyone, do you? Because you certainly don't speak for me.
