Hey I Think Its Cool For a black girl as your self I'm guessing, to like white guys this is not an act of racism. Why Because you are black, your background is who you are, and to say that you like white people / guys is to say i have no problem with white people witch is totally okay :) some black people don't like us very much :P in fact i know quite a few , and for you to say you like the white culture that's cool you are who you are and nothing will change :) um I'm no good at this sorta stuff but i hope that helped you out a little :P

Well it really depends on the reason you only like white guys. If you only like white guys because you have some belief that black men are insignificant. Or that a black man will treat you badly etc without giving them a chance then yes you are racist. And yes it is possible to be racist against your own race.
But if you only like white guys because that is who you find yourself attracted to for no other reason then that is what attracts you then no you are not racist.
Everyone is attracted to different things. There are certain things that attract me to certain people and some races tend to have those qualities more then other races. I am not a racist...I just have certain things I like-just like everyone else in the world does

I don't think so, like a lot of other people said - certain behaviour-isms, looks, characteristics and even personalities are embodied by race. Who is anyone to tell you who you can fall in love with?
I am white, dark haired and with blue eyes, and I'd hate to be limited to those characteristics in my choices for relationships. I've never had a relationship with a black person, but you bet your *** I would. Asians too. Hell, the more the merrier, you don't know what you are missing out on otherwise.

Depends. If there are certain physical features/characteristics that you find attractive in white men, then no, you are not racist. You just have a personal preference for dating white males. If, however, you are one of those individuals who insists on grouping men of the same and/or different race based on a number of belittling stereotypes, then yes, there is a possibility that you have some racist tendencies.

Well are you? It is not your fault if you don't like black guys that's just the type that you like, you find them attractive. May be you go for different guys. It's the way you are, and your teacher was not right for calling you racist.

No, it's just that opposites happened to attract. I am black and find plenty of white guys very attractive. I'm physically attracted to guys that look different from me- I love expressive blue eyes and blushy fair skin...so cute:-)

No your not racist for liking white guys. Your choice, your life, not anyone elses.

No, I like white boys too because they are gentleman unlike some of these black guys. Black boys just want to have an one night stand so

It's your preference, who you're attracted to. Perhaps you've been socialized, i.e., grew up in white neighborhoods, went to white schools, etc. where there were mostly white guys around.
The only reason you might want to examine who you like, is if you're running away from black, asian, latin, indian, etc. guys?

ONLY white guys... ONLY white guys? That's racist even for a white girl.
