Like if someone says, oh I am not attracted to black people, or I am not attracted to Indian people, etc. It seems crazy to me to generalize an entire race that way....

I don't think it's racist. It's kind of limiting as people from the same race can look very different, but it's just a personal preference.

I think it's unlikely that a person wouldn't find a single person of a certain race that they are attracted to, unless they have a hatred of that race. Notice how the more you like someone, the better-looking they seem to become, and vice-versa? Perhaps there are *less* people of certain races that a person finds good-looking, but generalizations are pretty much always wrong. What clearly is racist is saying that you don't *like* people from a certain race, or, as I've seen recently, someone going as "hispanic pride" saying that all white women are ugly.

I don't think it's racist just dumb because I think there are attractive people in every race and why don't they just say there scared to date people of a different race 4 whatever reason they have but be honest about it . I mean everyone sees attractive people of every race and sex and you just can't say that there isn't. For example if we didn't check out the same sex then we wouldn't know what to wear how to act or how our hair souled look because we need to see it on someone else first to know if we like it or if it's ugly. I think the same goes for being attracted to people. There are stupid people out there . Just cut them some slack and SLOWLY explain that they are wrong- no quick movements- it scares them.

It may seem odd to you, but just as it seems odd to me that a man would be attracted to another man, it does happen.
I don't think it is racist to say you are not attracted to a certain race - I however do believe that the person who says that could actually find someone of that very same race attractive, they just haven't met them yet and so offer a general statement based on limited experiences.

I wouldn't say that its racist. For example, I'm really not to attracted to white women, because personally I'm more into full lips and big butts. But I have seen some white women with those physical attributes and have been attracted to them. So I think its more of a physical quality among the races rather than color.

No not really. I know some people who have many black friends. But said they could never do anything with them because there skin color isnt attractive. But you fall in love with a person not there skin or hair or anything else. So saying not be attracted to another race is just a stupid comment someone makes. Because you dont know who is going to be right around the corner. Peace out............

yes. I mean there are certain race I'm usually NOT attracted to. But I won't state that as a fact... cause I have never met every single person in that entire race.

No, its all about preference... If you can't see yourself kissing a certain people of a certain race doesn't make you racist. But making rude remarks and stuff is racist. I'm not attracted to certain races, I don't care to mention which because I don't want to offend anyone, but I keep my preferences to myself...

It's stupid to say because physical features are so very diverse among races and a black woman necessarily won't have big lips just like a white woman won't necessarily have small lips. But all in all, it's each person's own prerogative as to who they find attractive. I personally find my fiance, an Asian/Caucasian man to be an incredibly sexy mixture. Most men I've seen who were Asian and CaucAsian, or asian and black were all very sexy. But it's my opinion and others are free to disagree.

No,it's not racist, it's just a preference. The same way some people are attracted to one sex and not the other.
