Originally prior to moving to Seattle, I thought people here were open-minded. Boy was I WRONG!

After living here for almost 8 months, Washington State, or I should say "western" WA state being more Democratic, seems like the Midwest with a "Democratic" label affixed to the outside.
Dude...

People are mostly going to want to date their own race. Sucks but this is EVERYWHERE no matter how liberal. People can't help their biology.

Liberals/progressives are the least open-minded/tolerant people of all. Were you not aware of this? Just look at how they treat those with differing political views.

White progressive women may throw up a #BlackLivesMatter on their Twitter/FB page but that's for their own benefit (to make them look like a cool/suave/hip progressive). It doesn't mean they're concerned with the well being of blacks or are anymore likely to date a black/hispanic guy. It's just a facade -- the sooner you realize this, the better!

I wonder if I went to the Southwest would I have an easier time with White women? Seems the stigma to dating brown men is removed from regions Texas and West of there.

Now when I say brown I mean more Mediterranean looking. Not Amerindian. Outside of the Northeast Mediterranean men don't tend to date White women much. If they do then said White girls have a thing for Italian men.
Aren't Portuguese people White?

By the US Census they are. I always mark White on applications but perception is different. I live in the South and I might as well be Black here.

Leave the incendiary political flamebait out if this. The truth is most people regardless of political belief will rarely date outside their race. We are tribal by nature. Are you aware you can care about racial issues without dating someone of that race? I wasn't aware I needed to be sexually attracted to someone to care about happens to them? By your logic should people not care about handicapped people unless we find them sexually attractive? Come on you can do better.

For the record I do not buy into BLM or their tactics but it is ridiculous to assume that just because a White woman cares about people she may believe are oppressed (whether they are isn't part of this discussion), now she has to sleep with them? That's like saying a girl who is into anti-bullying campaigns is into the guy who gets picked on by the jocks. No. She most likely will still sleep the jocks and have a soft spot in her heart for the kids being picked on. But having a soft spot in your heart for a person rarely means you're sexually attracted to them.

Quite the opposite. If a white girl believes Black guys are too oppressed, she doesn't view them as sexually attractive because she views them as victims, and women don't find victims attractive. They may CARE about said victim, but it's more of a motherly instinct rather than a "come pound me big daddy" one.

I will myself as an example. I care about the plight of the Palestinian people. I am not sexually attracted to Palestinian women, really ever. The two are independent of each other. On the other hand I find German women to be stupid lib tards brainwashed by Merkel but I still think German women are drop dead gorgeous.

People have tribal nature and it won't go away. Your biology isn't trumped by your social concerns, ever.

Most girls that believed that dating me was interracial were liberals, by the way. I have only been with less than a handful of conservative women. I find that conservative women consciously object to interracial relationships whereas liberal ones do so just but instinct.

In Louisville where I live the majority of women I have dated were hardcore liberals and they were open to interracial dating. In their mind I wasn't like them (it's the South). I could never get in with the conservative types here who are natives. They really only want White guys.

There aren't many Mediterranean people here in Louisville (I have met 0 thus far) and here being Italian or anything in Southern Europe makes you not White. There are actually lots of people who consider the Mediterranean nations to be non-White. Heck we had a dark Sicilian fellow walk in to where I work and one of the guys here just thought he was a light skinned Black guy.

HA..several years ago this thread was started and brahn913 I think was saying back then that most people will stick with their own race. But everyone flamed him. I think he had some good points.

"Mediterranean" Is pretty vague in terms of looks. Is the situation the same with a, say, fair skin Southern European? Is it more of a cultural or looks thing?

I meant stereotypically Mediterranean as in olive skin, brown features. And hairy.

Usually pale Mediterranean would have no issue. But lots of women here love the look of country boys with Blonde hair and Blue eyes. An Italian just looks out of place here.

But it is a looks thing. I am culturally American. Nothing Portuguese about me. Darker men here date darker women unless you're like me and the women you date are transplants or not culturally Southern.
