Do you date outside of your race?

I am an asian female. I have dated men of different races before. Ex: Black/hispanic, white/asian, but I do find myself very and more attracted to white men. The last 2 men I have dated were white. Is that a problem? I'm not saying I wouldn't date another race, because I have, but that is just my preference. My roommate, "P", has an asian male coworker, recently single %26amp; he is joking around about fixing me up with him. I told him I wasn't interested and "P" got upset, saying I was discriminating because he wasn't white. I apologized %26amp; maybe I am discriminating, but I don't want to be set up with someone, and I'm not that attracted to asian men. I read somewhere that a lot of asian men don't like asian women (like me) who date white men- these asian men claim that they are better than white men because they care more for their family, etc. Again, I'm not saying I don't date asian men, just not really attracted to them. I feel guilty for this. What is your stance on this?

Do you date outside of your race?
I do not see what is so wrong for not wanting to go out with that guy. Everyone has their preferences like some girls like tall guys, smart guys, guys with brown, blue, or green eyes, what ever hair color. since when is a preference disciminating? And plus, you should feel attracted to someone you are going out with. I wouldn't want to date someone that I have no interest in and waste the guys time.
Reply:it shouldn't make you feel bad. just ignore what other people think. as long as you're happy, thats the most important thing. If your friend was a true friend, they would understand this if you just explained that you didnt find asian men attractive. If what you say about asian men not liking asian woman who like white men is true, then they're just as bad as you.





Dont worry, be happy!
Reply:You can not help who you are attracted to. This is just something about you. (it isn't right or wrong...it just is)





I am white. I find White and Asian men attractive. I do not find Latin nor Black men sexually appealing. I can tell that they are good looking but that "spark" just isn't there for me.





If "P" has a problem...then it is his problem alone. You are not being racist. You (if anything) are being honest and saving everyone's time and energy.
Reply:I'm african american and i date outside my race. i've dated an asian guy, a hispanic guy, and i'm currently dating a white guy. There's nothing wrong with doing that. All i know is.. i'm not attracted to black guys.
Reply:You can't help who you prefer. Tell your friend to get over it and you can find your own relationships.
Reply:My last girlfriend was Asian and I'm middle-eastern. Race don't matter for me; it's whoever makes you happy.
Reply:I only date within my own race...the HUMAN race. Skin color matters not. ☺☻
Reply:Well there isn't much wrong with that. But if your friend told you that they wanted to hook you up with a white guy instead of an Asian, would you have said yes? If so, then maybe you are a little against your own race. But at least you're questioning it. Change can't happen until you are aware of your own actions.
Reply:Don't feel guilty, we all have our own tastes. I'm a white female who seems to be attracted to men of the Latin decent. Sure there's culteral differences between the two, but we all have our own tastes and preferences. Go get you some white boy girl! If we all liked the same kind, there would be some serious catfighting going on!
Reply:It's your life, so date whoever appeals to you regardless of race. These friends of yours should be tending to their affairs and let you be your own person.
Reply:well i've dated out of my race and in my race(im hispanic)...i usually feel better with my own kind, but it doesn't matter...u should be with people of the race u prefer, not to be discriminating, but because they make u feel more comfortable that any other...don't worry about wat others say, just be with the ones that make u happy, even if it is white men!.... :)!
Reply:"I do" varity is the spice of life. I like garlic more than oragano and I'm not even Itailan.
Reply:don't feel guilty it just ur preference! Let "P" know ur just not attracted to them physically. who cares what n e one else thinks just make urself happy!!!!
Reply:I'm a white man who's more attracted to Asians and Latinas. Absolutely nothing wrong with the concept...


...good luck girl...;)
Reply:I date guys based on my interests and personality. The vast majority of guys who end up fitting those criteria end up being white. I wish there were some other guys too, but it seems like white guys allow themselves to variate more. :(


I wish that weren't the case, but I'm not going to date someone within my race just because he's the same color as me.


You shouldn't generalize though, date based on personality, not color.
Reply:i don't agree with your roommate. you're not discriminated. you're just not focused on race, and that's a good thing. i've dated outside of my race also. (i'm black)
Reply:depends on the individual ;)
Reply:No unless you really like the person
Reply:You can date whoever you want and who cares what they think
Reply:Yes I have dated outside my race have dated a black woman before. I have never dated an Asian girl before but I must admit that I am very attracted to Asian women for some reason . I have never had the oppourtunity to date an Asian girl before but I am still hoping.





oh by the way I am a white guy and I beleve strongly you should do waht makes you ahppy skin color or race should play no part in it.
Reply:I think you should date whomever makes you happy. Caring about race is retarded, who cares? But at the same time, I don't think you should put down your own ethnicity and discriminate against them, that leads to self hatred and you may want to examine why you don't like men of your own race.
