If you only find a specific race(s) of people attractive, would you date a person of another race even if.....

there was a person of that race that you found attractive? I guess what I am trying to ask is, if you didnt find a particular race of girls/guys attractive, would you exclude them completely? If you are a person that doesn't find a particular race of the opposite sex attractive, would you EVER see yourself with that person, even if he/she had all the qualities in a girlfriend/boyfriend? Ok, how about this, if you are(insert race here) and wanted a person that had (insert criteria here), would you limit that to only one race? Like me, I am Black, and I dont find many Black or White girls attractive, but if one came along that had all the qualities I wanted in a girlfriend, I'd still go for it. I'd never restrict love to race only, that would get me nowhere. You get what I mean? OK, enough out of me, your turn. What do you think? This also for people who don't find guys/girls of their own race attractive as well.

If you only find a specific race(s) of people attractive, would you date a person of another race even if.....
I do have my preferences in races but yes I would date outside of my race if I found the race that I'm least attracted to attractive. Even though I have my preferences, that does happen sometimes. I try to be open-minded and as non judgemental as possible. Looks matter to me a little but not that much and there's certainly no race that i would exclude for good even if I have general preferences...if you know what I mean lol. BTW: I'm mixed Dutch/Filipino
Reply:i find races and sexes across the board attractive, race is something i don't look for in a person, i mean, sure, i'd go for a pale white guy, a latina, or an asian anything over anything else (that's just me, though) but if someone else came along and we clicked, i'd jump on that and then on them ;-p
Reply:Eh, well...I find people of all races attractive. I saw a part white/part arab guy and he was so hotttt! I find race to be irrelevant as long as I have the factor of compatibility.
Reply:yeah... but i dont find a specific race attractive only. I find asian men more attractive on average but i find men of any race attractive. I personally care about personality the most though. I have liked people that were considered on the ugly side but they were super duper sweet. =)





I think what ur tryna say is u tend to like a certain race more but still would date people of other race even if u met some1 who was of that race that was attractive.





AHH!!! im confuzzled.
Reply:hmmm that’s a good question. first I think its important to always ask why you feel a certain way because I’m only 18 and i cant stand when people give the pathetic excuse of "oh well that’s just how i feel". society has a lot to do with what a lot of people find attractive and as long as you’re aware of that and question your thinking, then you should be a healthy individual.





well I’ve generally not been attracted to black guys for various reasons, but I think mainly because i grew up around different races/cultures and i never felt like i had to be into guys of my own race. although bw dating guys of other races is more common where i live than many other places in the us, it was still kind of taboo. Also I hated the media always ranting on about how everyone wants a black dude cuz…well you know. so i guess dating exclusively outside my race was a rebellion thing at first; like a big “**** you” to anyone who thought it was wrong. as time went on, it just became what i was attracted to. crazy because i think women of my own race are gorgeous but you know that doesn’t really do much for me : \





um so to answer your question...i don’t really think i would unless i started seeing black guys in that light. i mean i have friends around me everyday who have the characteristics i look for in a bf. am i going to **** them? not necessarily. i think that narrowing your list of desirable racial characteristics to a specific look or race is kind of bizarre though I’m not gonna lie. For example Latinos are a mix of black, Spanish, and native American blood and I dated this one Latino guy who looked more on the black side. I didn’t really care because in my mind it was okay as long as he wasn’t black. I know it sounds kind of ridiculous but that’s just how my mind works. I would never use stereotypes perpetuated throughout the media and society as a reason to not date a certain race. that’s ******* stupid. I had this one girlfriend (she was white) and we were really close until one day when we were talking about my ex bf and I and interracial relationships. She goes “well black guys are sexy but most of them are in jail and uneducated and most likely going down a crap shoot”. I could sit here and talk about that subject for hours but it’s just such a blatantly ignorant statement that I kind of blew up on her. I know she meant well and I could have helped her understand that topic better but I have a low tolerance for ignorant people. Anyway…i think its wrong to completely cut off a certain group of people because you’re not attracted to them - that’s just nasty and evil. however, i have never done such a thing so i don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything. i have always had awesome black friends of the opposite sex and i don’t think its going to change so...i don’t see myself having a revelation like "omg i have to date that black guy now he’s my IBM omg" yeah...not really. i mean if it happens sure but i don’t know. I’m just an opposites attract person i guess.
Reply:i prolly wont





im black and i dont find that many black guys or white guys attractive, (i find latino and asian guys cute but anyway). but maybe if they had a quality i was lookin for then.... thats inside my own...
