Dear All

I know we are in the 21st century and taking about these things is not the done thing. But, however, we are still as human as we were 100 years ago; our sensibilities may have changed somewhat due to being politically correct, it's not now acceptable to openly advertise for "no coloureds" as it was 50 years ago; many of us are ignorant and that's not our fault it's just we don't know any better.

My question is, therefore, when a non-Asian lady sees my picture, does she look at my colour/race and make a decision or does that not come into the equation?

Please, this is a genuine question and is not intended to be prejudice or offensive in any manner whatsoever. Surely in this day and age we can be open and discuss these issues, if there is an issue?

Thanks for reading, I welcome your comments/views...

Best wishes

Everyone has personal preferences, eg hair colour, height, weight, personality, political views, etc etc.
Race is just another factor.

I suppose it's almost tribal. People generally like sticking with people they have a affinity with. With a different race I guess your entering different terority and so one is a bit unsure.....

come on, its just a preference. There are many who prefer to date blokes from other races. But when it comes to love, its beyond that.

well to be honest there are indeed all difereing races.
and as such, we must consider that gthey all do the same thing really at end of the day, no matter the va;lues that they are all racing for really, it all comes down to the right nutrition, carbohydrates, vitamins, and shopping and so on, and they all use the same petrol too.

but where they do differ is on the surface.
fr eg, car racers, and the varying degrees of car racing, ei rally, or formula one.
horse racing, steeple chase or flat?

and likwise
we have the 100 meteres and the marathon.
but under neath this again, they all of the above are all doing exactly the same thing..
does race, or more correctly, "racing" get in the way?
well only if you let them.

go to any race, enjoy, have a bet, am sure you will see the fun for all!

discrimination is a human nature and u can not avoid that.. u dun hang around with a certain type of ppl. some categorise them as kool or not kool, some look at the clothes they wear color of the skin is just another factor.. dun make such a big deal out of it.. if u r into blondes or european grls arent u discriminating aswell ??
i bet there are plenty of women who will like YOU for being YOU.. i knw some of them.. maybe cuz i dun see them as european/white grls but as people.. and they are amzing..

dude its like looking at a half filled or half empty glass.. just change ur perspective on how u look at ppl, and u might realise the change in way you are looked at .. think abt it!!
have a good one yo..!! cheerz..!!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......

There's nothing wrong with discriminating against someone based on race (some people just don't find whites attractive for example). Where it becomes wrong is where that discrimination is based on prejudices or inaccurate preconceptions (that blacks are less intelligent or scots are mean for example).

Discrimination is a bit of a loaded word but essentially its just the act of making a choice. The option not taken is the one discriminated against.

I think race, and all other characteristics will come into anyones decision, race may not make much of a difference, may be outweighed by other factors or it may be a deciding factor. It'll just depend on the person.

For me as a male who dates females you're either attractive to me or you're not, regardless of the colour of your skin. Being attractive has nothing to do with your race in my opinion. Granted i find more white people attractive then i find say, Indian, Chinese or Afro-Caribbeans but that's just because there are more of them where i come from and where i've grown up. If i lived in a society heavilly dominated by another colour then i have no doubt it'd be biased towards the racial majority.

You are who you are, i go out with girls for who they are, not what they are.

i think people can have very short term views, if your looking for someone to be with for life you have to aim for the character not the looks. once they look like an elephant skin rug and have a crap personality your not left with much now are ya.

yeah it is , us english people dont like foreigners, muhahahhahahhah
from a skinhead (white english not british lmao)

Well, without sounding racist, i agree, i think it is all personal preference. I know it sounds shallow but I wouldn't get with a guy if i didn't find him attractive. That's just me. Personally, I find black guys really hot but I'm not attracted to Asian guys. Just like some men would hate to be with someone like me ( a red head). I don't think it's racist, it's just what people like/don't like.

That's just me anyway, everyone else might disagree with me "/

its totally personal preference. Ive never dated a black guy but ive not ruled it out and i doubt other people would be naive enough to rule out a race completely. I dont think anyone would be put off by race/culture as long as there are other shared interests.
