I don't understand why you have so much trouble finding a country boy type based on where we live. I know you and I are practically neighbors. Any of my buddies (all country boys) myself included would love to have a good looking dress size 2 woman that likes campfires, cold beer and boats and ATV's for a girlfriend. Hell, most of them could care less about your size if you are nice and fun to be with. You gotta be doing something wrong. Just can't figure out what.

I'm seeing a woman from Thailand that is living here in Vail and I was kind of taken back by the way she was so uneasy when we went to bar in Denver that is mostly black people. Later on she said she don't care for black people . Seems like a lot of Asians have that mindset, she was polite to everyone but you could tell she felt a little out of place.

I'm still dating her, she's a lot of fun and loves skiing/biking. It's really odd though, she's such a sweetheart otherwise.

For the OP..
Seems like living in a tiny town is more your issue than anything! Just do more things and try getting into another social circle. I've actually had luck with online dating, but I live in a pretty decent sized area.

We really should meet one night for drinks.

I have a theory that men love the idea of me, but rarely do they know what to do with me.

And my size is 5'3", 120 lb, size 2/4... If a man finds fault with that he can take a long walk, off a short pier.

I don't agree with that.

Unless you think bigots / prejudiced people / racists can be good people. That, of course, is a matter of opinion.

The notion of not wanting to make out with / date / have sex with someone because they had sex with someone of a different race is so ridiculous its beyond belief. Really, if it wasn't for places like CD, things like MGTOW (drink!) and this type of stuff would never have ever crossed my mind its so bizarre.

"Good people"
Is subjective to your own morals and ethics.

My grandfather is a racist by definition, but I would not classify him as a bad person.

Sure. Pol Pot was a good guy to a bunch of people, I'm sure.

I just see it as an issue of wanting to be with someone who shares your values and beliefs. It doesn't mean you have hatred/intolerance towards other groups just because you prefer not to date outside of your own.

This thread has taken a weird turn.

A racist is someone who feels that someone of a particular race are inferior solely because of said race. No other reason. How can someone who makes a snap judgment about an entire group of people be considered a person of good character? I could not date someone who was racist. I would not consider a racist relative a good person.

Seriously, someone straight out said that they were racist and you continued to date her??? She's a nice person otherwise...

And since we weren't talking about that, it's rather irrelevant.

We're not talking about dating outside our race (of course we're one species, Homo sapiens sapiens, there isn't enough genetic differentiation in our species to have geographic races), we're talking about dating someone who has dated outside "your own". That is absolutely intolerance of other groups. It can only mean you view that other person has having sullied the person you're interested in dating. It is bigotry at its core.
