and yes, holding a race-based dating preference does make you a racist. b/c you're literally engaging in race-based prejudice (aka pre-judging ppl based on their race) and even deciding which race is superior. it all adds up to 'race' and 'ism'. now, whether you find that a negative or positive is on you, i guess. i don't think it has to be a negative thing. maybe you prefer ppl of a certain race b/c you want to make biological children w/them and you want those kids to be of a particular race - that's all good. and it's racist as fuck. again, do you. if you like it i love it.

i feel hold my own prejudiced preference myself, i think - if/when i marry a dude i would prefer it if he's Black. i have pre-judged non-Black men based on their race and decided they will make inferior husbands. i have decided that Black men are superior - based on their race. i think my reasons are primarily positive. but this is a race-based preference that's rooted in prejudice. b/c i haven't met every single non-Black man or every Black man so how do i know that no non-Black man out there can make a great husband for me? how do i know that there's no non-Black man out there who would be better for me as a husband than a Black man? i don't but i'm using my prejudices and stereotyping dudes. and i'm okay w/that, for the most part. though i fear if i stick w/the absolute of my prejudiced preference i may miss out on a good man. but is he 'good' if he's not what i say i want? i dunno.

IMO the holding of the prejudice is racist and stating it is definitely racist. b/c why say that shit? what is the point otherwise? i can keep that shit to myself and just tell non-Black dudes i'm not interested on a case-by-case basis w/o alerting them to my prejudice. all they need to know is that i'm not interested - they don't need to know that i will never be interested solely b/c of their race. which isn't even about THEM as individuals it's about biological and social science facts that are beyond their control. they don't need to know that i'm not interested in getting to know them as ppl - i have written them off. they don't need to know but i tell them anyway and that's racist, i think. or it's at least hurtful and unnecessary.

anyway, yeah. DAS RACIST! but fuck it.

Black girls tawnbout "I date older white men only."

Look here, you backpage bitch...

Lol

Stay salty, my friends.

They strongly prefer to date someone white. Or they are interested in every race but black women. It helps me out. There are ppl who I could have saved a lot of time dating if I had saw their okcupid profile before we started dating.

"... finally a Black girl who likes Idiocracy, Evil Dead and 4 non blondes. That's so rar-- no Black guys? Wtf? Have you met all Black guys? Fuck your daddy."

just talking about 'cultural compatibility' in whatever company... it is near enough impossible to condemn someone for...


<-------- definitive proof I never would get with a white girl...

Mainly Black and Brown girls for me.

But I do like redhead Becky's.

preferences is probably racist.

The difference is dating your race can be based on the desire to date someone with a common life experience as you. There is nothing racist about that.

All other racial dating preferences though is premised on some racist stereotype.

Having a preference for blonde or brunette wouldn't equal only wanting to be surrounded by blondes or brunettes at work.

Aesthetic preferences for dating can surely be separated from the rest of equality - there is no accounting for taste, but there is plenty of accounting for hiring practises.



EDIT: Having a preference for dating "within your own race" may well be racist as fuck, tbh... having an honest preference isn't a problem, but blinkering yourself from the possibility that you'd find another race attractive probably is.

Every eye skin and hair color

"Blonde and Brunette" was just an example of a couple of aesthetic preferences. There are others.

Everyone has traits they prefer and traits they're not attracted to. They're different for all of us.

Choosing a 'most attractive' race without evaluating the others or acknowledging that most people aren't aesthetic stereotypes to their race? Yeah, that'd be racist.

Having a preference of traits after evaluating all traits? Nah, that's just human. Taste is a thing. No answer is correct or incorrect when it comes to sexual attraction.

whether you specifically want to date your race or you specifically don't want to date your race. Point is you drawing that race line

if enough of the same people get together who want to live and work together it can lead to discrimination, redlining, etc...

Ranking of races to determine which is superior.

Racist.

Does that make those with a natural blonde preference 'prejudiced' against natural brunettes?

Or is it more like deciding between Jazz and Soul? i.e. Entirely subjective and therefore inconsequential? Neither are objectively "better", but one is "preferred".

I think using terms that pertain to race is probably backwards and may point to underlying racism, but it's an incredibly difficult call. Variation amongst members of the same "race" is probably high enough for "I'm not attracted to black women" or "I'm only attracted to white women" to be factually incorrect (and therefore evidence of internalised racism), but having aesthetic preferences is not, in itself, racist... it's true of most people.

I lean to agreeing that verbalising it along racial lines is problematic and arguably racist. But then I'd think it would be unnecessary to write "I only date blondes" - what's wrong with only messaging/responding to blondes! It's the need to advertise that's weird...

>Does that make those with a natural blonde preference

no b/c jazz and soul aren't ppl.

Where is the Exercise of power based on race in wanting to date someone who has shared experiences?

Where is the Ranking of races to determine which is superior by deciding you want to date someone who you can relate more easily with?

sometimes unconsciously. they think this person will fit in and be like me because they share the same skin color.

I've found that I am most attracted to a certain subset of Black Women.

That doesn't mean I can date ALL black women.

It's stupid to compare my dating preferences to work place discrimination because in my dating preferences there is nothing wrong with selecting a partner based on shared experiences, eye color, height, whatever.

There is no reason to make hiring decisions based on such arbitrary factors.

because of their race and they may not. they may be from an entirely different country/culture and or class and have had completely different experiences than you.

Given that we're talking DATING WEBSITES, most people are making that first selection based off the photo. There's nothing guaranteeing there's anything more going on than "I'd hit that" or "I wouldn't hit that".

Not all people confer special "personal relatability" traits along with other aesthetic traits - i.e. I think most people would agree it'd be ludicrous to say "I relate to blondes better than brunettes" but it wouldn't be ludicrous to say "I only date blondes because they get my dick harder".

There are certainly cases and it might even be a LOT of cases where racism and the sort of thinking you describe above come into it... but the OP said it was racist full stop. It's not. It only can be.

and nobody should feel shame for their preference.

Is it heterophobic for you to state your gender based preference??



"Seasons may come and your luck just may run out, and all that you'll have is some memories..."

...brunettes over blondes? Or ass over titties?

But to discount whole races has its basis in discrimination. No two ways around it.

No Irish Need Apply? Thats racism.

Discounting a race because you hold hatred against them directly related to their skin color and simply having a preference because you're naturally attracted to a certain type of person.

So to even be on the lookout for tan or pale or super dark, any number of races can fit that bill. Why discount people in advance? And advertise that your mind is exclusive that way?

My only point, personally, is that I don't think it's racist to acknowledge "I haven't historically been attracted to many darker skinned women". It's as natural as preferences to girls who look a certain way based on hair, eyes, ass, whatever. It's the same thing.

That's WAY different than someone saying "I won't date black girls". That has basis in prejudice, you're right.

But I don't think it's racist, at all, to acknowledge what your preferences tend to be based on your life's experience.

Not "I tend to like this" but "I will not date (x)"

That's the bit I find racist.

People try to make those two the same thing.

"Oh you like light-skinned women...you're racist or have self-hate"

That shit just isn't the case. Having a preference is different than "NOT dating someone solely based on race."

People need to stop fighting reality.

It's about, you're at South Beach and your eyes naturally going to a specific type of person time and time again. Yeah you look at ALL of the fine women, but if I said...pick one to take out tonight...you're going to pick one and you know what...if we did the same thing the next day, your end choice would be similar. And it has nothing to do with you being racist and everything with how your eyes and brain view the women.

People have preferences.

"Seasons may come and your luck just may run out, and all that you'll have is some memories..."

Because in my head racism is a deeply harmful thought process leading to false schisms in society... and having a favoured hair colour is just having a favoured hair colour.

Are all the white women going bottle-blonde just fanning the fires of their own self hate? Are you saying they think Scandinavians are superior because they've got lighter hair? Does "more fuckable" really equal "superior"? To anyone who isn't a porn agent?

This sort of conversation is why a lot of reactionary dicks dismiss racism in 2015 as petty. Racism is not petty, but as a society we often get bogged down in petty interpretations of it.

>Because in my head racism is a deeply harmful thought process

i don't think colorism is necessarily as harmful to society or individuals as racism.

I'm bout done with the over sensitivity and all the rules.

>Is it heterophobic for you to state your gender based

at times, yes. it definitely can be.

i agree that i have some irrational fear of heterosexuals and heterosexuality. if that's heterophobia i'll be that. just like i also have some irrational fear of homosexuals and homosexuality. i'm a homophobe - as many of us gays are. even those of us who're out.

Option to some blonde chick. But I don't really date anymore so it doesn't really matter.

not in line with my preferences

Why even let it get to that level unless it was a preference you could overlook in the first place, is my thinking

I'm talking about just not dating a type of person you are not into

I've had white girls throw it at me but i keep it friendly without saying 'i'm not into white girls'

i don't think when you first meet someone and they are trying to spark interest you have any obligation to tell them the reason is due to your own dating prejudices. I was assuming this post was dealing with more depth than that, maybe I'm wrong

there's no reason to go there - except to be an asshole.

people outside your race.

if a black guy prefers white girls i'd like to know that too.
so i skip them as well.

I mean I know this is OKP and a lot of us truly believe that the way we see things is rational no matter how irrational it is, but the only thing I'd ask of anyone is to at least not be an asshole about your racism or prejudices.

It's better expressed as "I do or do not care so much about the ethnic features of the humans I date". Because the only interracial dating that has ever occurred (at least to me as an armchair anthropologist) would be between Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens.

Interestingly enough whites and Asians have the highest concentrations of Neanderthal DNA (3-4% on average) which seems to suggest this as being the truest form of "race mixing" among genetically distinct races of human. And yet Darwin considered those aforementioned groups to be superior-- proving yet again his scientific motives are not to be trusted.

smh....open-minded, deep-thinking, living single asses..

for the same reasons, assumed shared experience, that's what they prefer to look at, that's who they're comfortable with, etc. we're not saying that makes them a bad person. but the reality is it's racist.

their race.

and people who want to work and live around their own people open up some serious liabilities like work discrimination, redlining, lack of funding in certain neighborhoods, etc...

preferring to date your own race isn't in the same boat.

it may be a life boat attached to it but that shit ain't the same.

and act based on those prejudices are wonderful folks who make positive contributions to society outside of their racism.

and those folks also think their race-based prejudices are positive or at the worst benign but definitely not negative.

my saying that dating preference for your own race or any particular race is racist doesn't necessarily mean i think it's a negative.

but not wanting to date someone else because of their race (which is the same damn thing) is racist.

i'm not sure what to do about it tho, cause i'm in the same boat that you are.
---------------------------------------
it's true what they say...people are strange, when you're strangers.

not compassionate....only polite.

I am not like you at all and i cannot pretend.

that would be racist...

but having a preference to marry a Black woman isn't racist at all.

nah, i'll pass.

the post is fine w/o you.

but it can be based on bigoted views but isn't necessarily so

I prefer to date short girls, because I am not that tall.

That doesn't at all mean that I think tall girls are inferior to short girls.

no, that doesn't mean you think tall girls have worse character or that short ones are better ppl. but short girls are superior when it comes to choosing your wife or girlfriend.

-->

of course, when it comes to dating one has the power to choose one's dates. if one exercises that power in consideration of race by using race-based prejudices - that's racism.

for example I couldn't date anyone who would say "why cant protestors be less violent like MLK?"

as well, I know what Im most attracted to but I dont think black women are superior on a human level

but you decided that women of a certain race are superior girlfriends/wives and that women of certain other races are inferior girlfriends/wives - b/c y'all won't relate on certain issues. that's a race-based prejudgment.

if someone doesn't understand my blackness, that isn't a character failing. they aren't inferior to anyone who gets me. Bennetton ads were great and dreamy but I dont think we're all supposed to be compatible

I was once set up with a woman who was completely all about saving Africa. She immediately disqualified me as a prospect once she saw that didnt run my gamut of interests, but I hope she didnt view me as inferior to anyone else

we all do.

we judge ppl based on how they look. how they dress. how they wear their hair. how they speak. what car they drive. and on and on. little judgments and big ones.

>character failing. they aren't inferior to anyone who gets me.
>Bennetton ads were great and dreamy but I dont think we're all

great.

you've decided Black women are superior wives FOR YOU b/c (you assume) they understand your Blackness. their understanding of your Blackness is superior to that of women of other races. the other women's understanding of your Blackness is lesser which makes them inferior when it comes to wives for you.

I don't only agree with this statement, but such a viewpoint can be a case of "benign" racism.

it's still racism though

but racism nonetheless.

it's easy to think that racism MUST BE malignant/repugnant. but that's not true, IMO.

plus i'm sure the folks who hold opinions and who act in ways that many of us would agree ARE repugnantly and malignantly racist don't agree w/our classification of their action or opinion. it's subjective, i guess. what's malignant to us is benign to someone else.

but see #89.

i.e. 89 doesnt make much sense either

*shrugs*

people are uncomfortable with it obviously because they don't like being called racists
but i've always looked at it like "if you're gonna go out of your way to announce on whatever social media dating site that you dont like X girls/dudes, don't turn around and try to act like you're not sending a very clear message that you like certain people more than others solely on the basis of that X"
just embrace what you like and don't try to have it both ways
being a racist in and of itself isn't necessarily a bad thing
being a racist who kills people or actively tries to deprive people of opportunity that could advance their lives is whats fucked
people try to deny the shit because they hear racist dating preference and think you're lumping them in with george zimmerman.

I don't want to deal with the hassle of bringing Becky around family and friend s a, , dealing with race issues is hard enough, plus I have a stronger connection with sisters because of our shared history experience.

So if we lived in a truly post racial world I'd be more open to dating Becky but as long as the struggle continues I'm going to be with a sister

even if it's racist. technically.

Is it just me? Am I hunting for race bait?

i LOL every time too. especially the one about them having babies.

He knew yall would go cuckoo over being called racist.
When dating, you're also sexist (unless you're pansexual)... not to mention a whole
other host of "ists" (size-ist, intelligence level-ist, marital status-ist, the list goes on).

The thing about personal preferences is that people can have then for both benign
and malicious reasons, so to equate them all is ridiculous.

It's like you saying SoWhat is gay because he was molested. Sure, that's happened to
someone, but to think all situations are that one would be, again, ridiculous. And he would,
no doubt, say "fuck you" over such a generalization. Yall in here letting him insult your
intelligence left and right by saying you're no different from Jim Crow for a dating preference..... lol.

i didn't say and don't agree that those of us who hold race-based dating preferences rooted in various race prejudices are doing the same thing as the various governments that enacted Jim Crow laws. b/c the impact of the 2 are so widely different, for the most part.

i would agree that the root is the same though - race-based prejudice. but the fruits are not the same. that Jim Crow fruit is much more sour - rotten, even. where as that racist dating fruit can be sweet (at least to most ppl, some will find it sour).

though i can see where one might make this connection - especially when it relates to choosing a mate of a particular race out of a desire to keep a blood line "pure". ppl of all races are into that. recently i heard my Japanese coworker tell me her parents raised her to want a Japanese husband in part b/c they want purely Japanese kids and not 'halfsies'. hell, if i were to want kids w/that Black man i want as my husband i'd want us to raise some Black babies. it'd be fine if our kids were not Black or not 100% Black, i guess...but my preference would be for Black ones. i think most ppl would understand that and not find it offensive, but there are likely some who'd be offended to hear i want 'pure Black' kids.

Same goes if your preference is to live & work around White People.


You can say you want to date black people and live in a black neighborhood.

You can say you want to date Chinese people and live in a Chinese neighborhood.

You can say you want to date Jewish people and live in a Jewish neighborhood.

Heck you can even say you want to date Irish, Greek or Italian American and it's still not racist.


But "White" is completely different. Why? Because the only thing "White" means in this country is "NOT black, asian, latino, native american etc."

Nothing else connects all white people other than not being ethnic.

There is no "White Culture" or "White History" Or "White Pride" that isn't built on racism.

Think about it, what is unique and universal to the white experience that isn't experienced by non-whites in this country that isn't racism related? A love of mayonnaise? Full House Marathons?

SO yeah I can want to live in a Black, Asian, Latino, Italian community and it not be racism. It could be part of a desire to share in a common cultural experience. If you say you want to live in a White community, that's just racist.

That's a black man that doesn't feel like dealing with Black women issues. LOL

I've thought on this some. In some ways....'white' people in north America have lost their identity. Too far removed from their heritage to relate to their ancestry. And nothing new that fills that gap other than a system of supremacy and exclusion.

I remember in the early 90's there was a significant skinhead problem in Toronto. My perception that in many cases....it was basically jealousy. Being surrounded by so much multicultural diversity.....white Canadians who had been here for multiple generations felt left out in a sense. Nothing to call their own. So these skinhead organizations popped up all over the place offering to fill that void for them. Of course, it was based on what they 'WERENT' moreso than what they were. They defined themselves relationally. There was not a skinhead problem in white communities.....only in or near areas that had diversity.

I can't prove it in any meaningful way....but the sense I got from the kids who became skinheads....they have THEIR food, their clothing, their music, their heritage events. What about me? And the absolute ridiculous results involved people who had descended from European countries later destroyed by nazis....pledging allegiance to nazism.

Everyone has preferences.

That doesn't infer superiority, it infers assumed compatibility based on natural attraction and comfort.

If one has a preference but is open to going "against" that preference should the right person come along, that isn't racist.

Same way it isn't racist to prefer to work with white people (i.e. due to basic comfort with your own) but be perfectly okay with the fact that black people are often more qualified, and then make the fair decision based on that and treat them fairly.

It would be racist for that preference to be immovable, so if that's what you mean by "holding" then I may be able to agree.

>Same way it isn't racist to prefer to work with white people
>(i.e. due to basic comfort with your own) but be perfectly
>okay with the fact that black people are often more qualified,

What's the non-racist reason for preferring to work with White People?

Not me, but some people. You prefering submissive white women eliminates every other woman of other ethnicities. Based on the OPs definition, you qualify as a racist and some others may say that you suffer from a host of other emotional, psychological and other issues.

what if I don't want to date white men because I have yet to date a white man who hasn't at some point told me about his experience of racism directed at him?

I'm about ready to smack my boss who has told me repeatedly that his daughter would have gotten into this or that college if she had been disadvantaged or a different race.

another attorney was talking about his kid's college choice and said TO ME that he wishes the kid were at least half-minority b/c then he'd have more college choices.

i wanted to just walk away from the conversation and thankfully one of my cases was called at that moment so i had an escape.

and affirmative action. And I keep saying, "and you know this how?" and "have you heard of confirmation bias?" He won't even hear of the idea that her essays might not have been all that great. He thinks she's a great writer. I reviewed and critiqued her essays, at her request, and I thought they were okay but not brilliant.

with the same scores. but she probably wouldn't have those scores if she went to an inner-city public school.

tell him not to worry because most of the disadvantaged and black/brown kids never finish college anyway because they don't have the money.

and if they do and wind up entering the professional class, they'll wind up 200k in debt. then when they go look for jobs guys like him will look down on them and assume they're affirmative actions slackers.

so they'll still be losers. that should warm his heart.

oh ok...

i guess that makes a little bit more sense

there really is no reason to explicitly state it unless directly asked

One is clearly racist. the other is not. Heck "NO BLACK MEN" and "Prefer White Men" isn't really the same thing.


That's my only point at this point.

"No white men" is the same thing.
