The fact of the matter is, this only becomes an issue when it involves a race that isn't white.

You don't find a white man attractive? That's completely understandable.
You don't find an asian man attractive? That's racist.
You don't find a black man attractive? That's racist.

etc.

The association with anything to do with race being negative as racism is what's the real problem here. A person can't find a man of a certain race unattractive without having negative racist views on their entire race? What kind of idiocy?

Did you just try to pull the reverse racism card? Fact of the matter is, racism against white people doesn't exist on a systematic level. Prejudice? Yes. Racism? No. No one is taught from birth that white = ugly. It's actually quite the contrary and many, many non-white countries are being influenced by western culture to believe white = beautiful.

When a white person is omitting an entire race, there's something shady going on, and that something shady is racism.

That's actually quite a lie. Especially pertaining to black people.

Africans are more genetically diverse than the inhabitants of the rest of the world combined, according to a sweeping study that carried researchers into remote regions to sample the bloodlines of more than 100 distinct populations.

I said unattractive =/= ugly. =/= means inequality. As in, not the same.

Making hasty generalizations and inequitable comparisons are both fallacies and you are making them. For one, White people are, by and large, are seen as the race (of males, at the very least) capable of producing the most "attractive" features. Second, not every person on this forum hold those beliefs. Third,

You didn't say this. You said this:

There is a difference between "I hate all asians, they're gross," (racist) and "I'm not attracted to most asian men, their general facial structure is unattractive to me," (not racist, preference).

TO MOST ASIAN MEN
What are the implications of this?

Deduction:
1. Most Asian men are unattractive.
2. Most Asian men are inferior to MY racial preference
3. I will not date an Asian man, unless they hold an extraordinary feature.

Now, lets apply this to your ORIGINAL THOUGHT PROCESS:

Deduction:
1. Most White men are unattractive.
2. Most White men are inferior to MY racial preference
3. I will not date a White man, unless they hold an extraordinary feature.


Deduction:
1. Most Black men are unattractive.
2. Most Black men are inferior to MY racial preference
3. I will not date a Black man, unless they hold an extraordinary feature.

unattractive =/= ugly.

They do.

=/= means inequality.[

If they are unattractive, they are not attractive.

Inequality.

These are all simply deductions that you've made, and are in no way accurate at all. I wouldn't date a person that I found unattractive, personally. Regardless of race. That's the point I'm trying to make. Would you date someone that you find unattractive?

Inequality.

Exactly. Not being attractive does not mean ugly. It just means that, not attractive. Not attractive, but not ugly either. Neutral.

In an extreme example, dogs are not attractive to me. I am not sexually attracted to dogs. Does that mean that I dislike dogs as a species? No.

Deductions I've made based on your original stance, yes.

Shifting goal posts here. You yourself said that people of a certain race that do not fit your preference are inferior.

That's the point I'm trying to make. Would you date someone that you find unattractive?

No. But, unlike you, I do not have preconceptions about someone's appearance based on their race.

Now you're equating people you don't find attractive to dogs.

Ooh girl once you start comparing people of color to ****ing dogs it might be time to exit the thread.

I'm not attracted to white people, every one of my boyfriends have been of African ethinicity.

Not being attractive does mean ugly. What are you going on about? Are you on a food coma because of the holidays?

But, that is a completely different species here. Not comparable to the topic at hand. Another fallacy.

See, this is the problem. You are all so focussed on race that you can't see the obvious.

I clearly said "a white man", "an asian man", etc. A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE. I never said "the white race", "the asian race". In referring to that post.

If somebody finds an individual white male (i.e. Justin Bieber, Harry Styles, ect. - both of which I consider unattractive, or should I say, neutral, to clarify that I don't mean ugly) unattractive, nobody would see a problem with that.

But if somebody would consider an individual asian man, black man, etc. to be unattractive or neutrally attractive, then there would be racist accusations thrown at them immediately. Which I feel is unfair.

Even if you don't want to have sex with an asian man doesn't mean you need to specifically target them in your bio so they don't message you ever. That's rude and demonstrates a lack of social conscious.

Exactly.

I don't understand preferences tbh. How can you dismiss a person based on the color of their skin or based on their features? I just don't understand.
