Interesting.... I've heard this a number of times. I don't necessarily view it as being racist, although it does make me wonder. I do view it to be slightly shallow. What if that person was your soul-mate? Possibly someone that you could truly fall in love with emotionally.

I disagree. I don't think it's shallow at all to have preferences. And my "soul mate" is someone I will be attracted to inside and out.


same here jill. and thats not being shallow. flowerforyou flowerforyou

If people didn't have their own preferences, they would like and be attracted to anyone and everyone.

I guess if someone I wasn't interested in asked me out, I'd just diplomatically say "no", and that goes for any racedrinker flowerforyou .

Exactly! That's the way it is for anyone! And anyone who denies it is just a hypocrite.

You rock Jill! Thanks for telling it like it is! :smile:

Everyone has preference, but depending on the criteria of your preference can make a person very shallow.

you don't owe anyone an explaination as to why you don't want to go out with them. A simple "no thank you" should suffice. However, when they come back with " is it because I'm black" then maybe they have their own issues that they need to deal with.

Unfortunately we will always have some people in this world who are racist. That goes for white, black, mexican, etc... I wish everyone could get along and set this aside. I have seen racists of every color. It's sad. I would love to start a movement to unite everyone so they can settle their differences. But some will always choose to be narrow minded. I have actually helped people understand that we are all human and it shouldn't matter what color your skin is. If we could all just look beyond color and see what's under the surface this world would be just that much better!

PEACE... :smile:
