I think saying "I dont like how black girls look" is racist, because all black girls obviously do look look the same. They have different features.
What if someone says "I dont like african american features", is that racist??? I have male friends that dont like dark skinned girls but find beyonce and rihanna beautiful, are they racist??? I dont think they are, because they wouldnt be nasty to a black person or treat them differently, its just a preference regarding LOOKS.
People believe that all the beauty standards they've been fed is a "personal preference". I was one of those people before, but hello from the other side. At lot more open minded to beauty when I opened my eyes
No, I'm of South Asian descent but I don't date within my own race. In fact the guys I've been romantically involved with have been white. I don't think that makes me racist.
