I have a type but then society now says it's wrong to have that.

I can't help it though, since it's what gets me going physically and on an emotional level. Why then is it unfair to turn people down?

You can do whatever you want. Don't worry about those goofballs called "society".

Who's telling you it's wrong? Only people who are completely out of touch with reality - or, unable to meet your standards but wish they did.

Unless the OP's "type" is children or animals. Then society can step in.

there are differences between "standards" and "types". Standards are things like "must have high ethics", or "must be nice to dogs". "Type" is only liking someone with dark hair or a certain ethnicity. Standards are "who" they are and "type" is what they look like. Having both is not wrong, but you will miss out on wonderful people if you focus on the type. Standards are really what is important.

Are you an adult?
Do you want to live your life the way you want to live your life?
If you answered yes to either question then live your life the way you want to and quit worrying with the ideas that "society" throws out there.
Life will be less stressful and more fulfilling in the long run.

OP, if your "type" is a consenting adult, who cares about the details? We all like what we like.

The last part of your post, "why then is it unfair to turn people down?" made no sense. What did that mean?

You are free to have your standards, but other people are just as free to critique those standards. It is a pre requisite to liberty.
