"According to a recent study out of Australia on online dating apps, people who display a marked romantic preference for one race are more likely to be racist."

"Data was crosschecked with the results from a Quick Discrimination Index, a survey that measures attitudes on race and diversity that participants also completed, they found those who scored high on the discrimination index also had high levels of racial preference."

"So if you say you have a racial preference on your dating profile, you're very likely to also hold racist beliefs in other areas."

-Key word: "likely"

There is also the Okcupid study on Race and Attraction, 2009 - 2014. Black women are apparently the least desirable. So I guess everyone that doesn't want to date black women is racist? "82% of non-black men on Okcupid show some bias against black women."

If Sexual Preference is Racist then i think almost every male is racist. We almost all have preferences.

I personally am less attracted to black girls. And i think Latin > White > Asian but its really close. Its just different.

we are all racist, some like to pretend they are not, some try and control/change it, and some want to embrace it.
the end.

Is it sexist to prefer fucking women over men?

No.

please explain why.

Please explain why I would be?

Shut the fuck up. Not to you, that would just be my response.

Feel free to include any relevant studies.

There's a documentary on this wireframe model that shows it can be applied to any race and even any sex. It is a basic measurement of symmetry that our brains define attractiveness as. Quality symmetry displays quality genes, thus we are drawn to it. They also showed the same attractive faces to infants and they all unanimously responded in the same manner regardless of race.

I am predominately attracted to white women, however I have seen a few black women that had the faces of a white woman and their blackness didnt bother me at all, I would have totally smashed that and had a relationship and everything. But it's rare.

Asian girls look like my sister

yuck.

Besides pure instincts our perception of what is beautiful is heavily influenced by what is depicted as beautiful in the media. Caucasian features are definitely portrayed as ideal, minority actors and models usually look like white people with a slightly darker complexions. Obviously a lot of what composes our idea of what is beautiful is visual cues like physical health or birthing potential (lol) but there's a huge cultural influence as well.

Am I racist for liking girls that are not my race and hating white chicks?

No.   please explain why. Please explain why I would be? Ok, let me throw out a hypothetical here... If we switched from: "prefer Caucasian" and "prefer Blacks" to "no Whites" or "no Blacks" etc., would your opinion change? (Give a yes/no in your head before you read further.) Stating that you "prefer" one race over another is not much different from saying "no" anyway, since you're issuing a caveat to anyone that is not X race. It is akin to saying: "Well, you can try your luck with me, but it probably isn't happening." You are discouraging people of various races from contacting you. Onto your question. "Why would I be?" Well, I'm not a regressive leftist/progressive so that's a bit difficult for me to answer. Personally, I don't care if someone is or isn't attracted to a specific racial group because I've always believed that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and sexual desire is something that we have no control over. I've got better shit to deal with than to analyze who I'm attracted to and why, BUT being that I've come under criticism in the past and present and I've been accused of racism numerous times about this particular situation, I thought I would do some reading and inquire. If I had to flip the regressive switch and take a shot at demonizing your sexual desires, I may say: You don't care about racial discrimination because your race (Caucasian) rarely ever faces sexual racism. You are rarely ever told "no" based on your race. Your standards of beauty are heavily promoted on a global scale influencing your decisions. So I believe that your desires are just influenced by social norms. Society has made you racist. In saying "no" or "prefer" you are basically discriminating against and shutting out millions or even billions of people whom you've never met before. You are saying: "I've never met you before, but you are not attractive to me because you belong to x race." There is a strong correlation between racial discrimination and racist attitudes according to X study."   Feel free to include any relevant studies. In this documentary did it state whether this wireframe model matched the faces of specific races / ethnic backgrounds more often than others? Perhaps disproportionately so?

If I understand you correctly...

You are a white male that does not like white females? "Hate" is vague, so I will need to make some assumptions here...

I believe that western society has been heavily influenced by Cultural Marxism so I can understand why you would feel that way. Your hatred of white chicks is probably illogical.

I speculate that you dislike (are not attracted to) (or outright hate) white girls as a result of their attitude(s) and not so much as a result of their physical appearance.

Or am I wrong? It's just unusual to find white people who write-off other white people due to physical attraction.

Usually those people have self-loathing tendencies. Have you been discussing The Crusades or The Atlantic Slave Trade on your FB page at all this week?

Documentary title?

I tried finding the documentary on youtube, just found a bunch of other little 5-10 minute shorts instead. I'll look again later, it was kinda cool. As to the other guy's question, I want to say that they did indeed lay the image on more white women than other races, but I think that was just for "familiarity" sort of thing. As someone mentioned media is heavily white-centric so it's just what we're used to seeing, but they did lay the template on asian/black/whatever and if they were hot, it matched. They also of course put it on ugly people just so you could see how badly it did not match.

i am not even going to read this thread. i am already vomiting with the title
