    Well i'm mixed race(European{Caucasian}, Japanese, Native american)
    I generally don't think "race" has anything to do with dating someone, seeing as there's only ONE actual race (human)
    but in all honesty i'm probably more attracted to caucasian, asian/oriental and
    mixed race people,
    regardless, personality is always the most important thing :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: though i don't really notice "race" a lot, seeing as there's such a high population of mixed race people in England it's hard to tell a lot of people's ethnic background.

    I don't think I have any preferences really.

    I think what's important to remember here is that not liking somebody of a certain race doesn't automatically mean we prefer other ethnicities. Although most of the people I like would be classed as caucasian, that's only because they are the heavy majority of people in my country, so it's not really any surprise that I am attracted to ethnic minorities less than I am attracted to Caucasians. If i lived in an area in which the tables were turned then statistically I'd probably find myself attracted to people of a different ethnicity more than I currently am. It's just how the demographics play outtt.

    So yeah, I don't think racial preference plays a part really. But hey, if I like somebody then their ethnicity is the last thing on my mind. :grin:

    My only issue with race is mine. I spend half my time fretting "OH GOD IS MY PRIVILEGE SHOWING AUGH WHY WERE MY ANCESTORS ASSHOLES. SORRY SORRY SORRY." And then I get all nervous and twitchy and if that doesn't make it an uncomfortable experience for everyone, then it at least makes it damn uncomfortable for me.

    I've seen women of many races/ethnicities that I've found beautiful. Most of my celebrity crushes are caucasian because we tend to be the majority in the media, so it's more of a numbers game on that front, but I think ladies from any region are rad.

    ... It's just that piling white guilt on top of my inability to talk to attractive women in general is a whoooole lot of awkward. And yes, it's apparently possible to get more awkward than me hiding my face and trying to curl into a ball any time my friends say, "She's cute, you should go talk to her."

    But it's not their problem I'm pathetic, so... >.>

    If I look at my track record of people I was like "wow" about, it's mostly caucasian people but that's probably because 85% of the people I see around me are caucasian. And that doesn't mean I think all caucasian women are hot either. So, I guess it's hard to say. I wouldn't say I'm not interested in any particular race/ethnicity as a whole though.

    I used to think that I wasn't attracted to Asian guys. However, I now live in a place where I have a balcony overlooking a tennis a basketball court where alot of Asians have been playing shirtless this summer, and I have to say I was wrooooong. :grin: Apparently any good looking guy can pretty much do it for me!

    Well, being black and having barely anything but other blacks around me has made my preference to be of my own race. But that doesn't mean I don't eye f*** any other race.

    Man, the things I would do to Jake Gyllenhaal....

    Agreed. I'm mixed too (Chinese, Taiwanese, Scottish, British, and a mix of a bunch of other stuff I'm not really sure about...). I give personality and internal characteristics more value than physical attributes, so race isn't a big determining factor for me. Though I do think people with mixed race backgrounds (Hapas for example) are quite interesting looking.

    Well, porn I like watching lighter skinned guys, but boyfriend I don't mind, its what matters on the inside :slight_smile:, as long as he isn't always negative, and is in control of his life.

    I prefer white guys, however some mixed race guys with some white physical characteristics does something for me too.

    I've never really had a relationship, but all the guys I've felt attracted to are white and I myself am white. Doesn't mean I'm not open to another ethnicity though.

    I am white but I'm not attracted to white guys... white girls yes but not white guy, not unless he has dark hair and dark eyes. I figured out that in my family both my father and older brother aren't attracted to blondes. Maybe that's where I get it from. Nope, I am attracted to tall dark and handsome, I prefer my girls to be at least brunette but there are a lot of blonde hotties out there. Open to all races :grin:

    if i think someone is hot, i could care less what race they are. i'm black. ideally, my list goes like this:

    1. black/or mixed with black
    2. Latino - Puerto Rican or Dominican types. maybe a columbian or brazilian possibly
    3. whites - darker skinned whites or ethnic whites (italians, greeks, jewish, spanish, darker french types, etc.)..
    4. asian....usually filipino/pacific islanders, japanese and maybe some viets.
    5. some persians.

    I tend to be more attracted to white/Oriental men, but if I do get attracted to someone of a different race that's just the same, it just seems to happen less often.

    I am into white but a mix of Spanish or Mexican and some Indian will also do as long as they are hot. Due to my past I can never see myself with any black guys, but that doesn't stop me from recognizing a cute one once in a while.

    I don't have any preference. However, Black and Asian babies are worlds cuter than all other types of babies.

    Are redheads or 'gingers' a race? well I know they're not but damn I love ginger girls, always have.... and brazillian guys, they're so clean and filled with vitamin D, complete polar opposite of me, not that i'm not clean.... you know what i mean. I'd move to brazil but the ginger girls get sunburned.... the dillemmas we face :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    but hey, you can be purple with pink polka dots for all I care. If you rock out then you can rock my world \m/
