I don't see anything wrong with it. Don't let people who disagree with you or get mad at you get you down, or force you to change. There are people of every race who prefer only to date people of a certain race, I don't see a problem with it. What you said in your last sentence is correct and thats the bottom line.

You can have any preference you want sweetie. Just don't tell the guy he's "your type", lest he feel that you don't really like him for who he is as a human being with a soul. Just a suggestion...........

If you are talking about cultural differences, then that's a little different. Just don't confuse ethnicity and physical attraction with having "a lot more in common." This is America for God's sake!!! I don't know any two personalities that are alike based on their culture, unless it had directly to do with values and upbringing.

For instance I was raised Jewish, and I have never dated a Jewish man. Partly because there are so few of them where I live, and partly my sociopathic Jewish mother has given me a negative association with anything Jewish. But as I have grown up, I've learned that my lack of interest in Jewish or any other group of men as a whole is just another way I've restricted myself from finding who truly makes me happy.

I suggest you get over your shallow hang-ups and date whoever truly compliments you from within.

Do the creeps who tell you what to do date people for whom they have no attraction? I don't know the individuals, but I do know the type and I strongly doubt it. It is your life and you should choose whomever makes you feel loved and wanted and safe. Yes I am basically White. I am also Ojibwe and I have some Spanish in me.

Also, there is no scientific evidence for any race other than human. In spite of some small genetic differences caused by cultural isolation, humans from various cultures remain inter fertile and, given the right blood type, can inter-transfuse. The idea of different races of humanity is a myth.

Now for more cultural differences:

@atie
J'aimerais apprendre l'Espagnol. J'espere que leurs femmes sont aussi chaleureuses que les Quebecoises.


For the rest: I would love to learn Spanish. I hope that Spanish women are as warm-hearted as Quebec women.


@op
Es incorrecto que los hombres blancos tengan una preferencia por las mujeres Latina?


For the rest: Is it incorrect for white men to have a preference for Latin women?

Well, Hispanics are part European, and, in some cases, are fully European, and if someone has a preference for white man what does it matter. It is your choice, you are the one who needs to feel comfortable. So many people like to push what they think is right. Who cares if it is your choice, and they don't like it. Why should they care? More important, you shouldn't care. Accept your choice and feel liberated.

Everyone has their own tastes and preferences....you like Caucasian men (to be more politically correct) and that's your personal choice. Everyone has a certain taste when it comes to looking for someone....it could be the skin color, the cultural heritage, height, weight, skinny, muscular, bald, hairy, dumb as a post, smarter then the average bear....whatever. You have the right to choose whatever you feel is more to your liking. Never mind what others think...to be honest...it's none of their business anyway.

My monster is called "Physical Attraction", that's it, no sterotyping attached. My father is Mexican and I love hime too death and my two boys are half so to attach a sterotype would be degrating my children and I would never do that.
.
Pure physical attraction, without giving much thought to true emotional compatibility? Nope, that's never gotten anyone into trouble.......How could I have been so thoughtless? I take it all back.

You guys can say whatever you want to justify why you don't need deeper connections with your partners. To think that physical attraction is of utmost importance in a relationship, simply means you are missing out on the best part of sex and intimacy, which is what I assume we're ultimately talking about here.

I "like who I like" too, sometimes for no rhyme or reason. I just don't see the point in basing your preferences on a system of superficial rules, such as ethnicity, what kind of job they have, what music they listen to, etc. Seems like a no-brainer to me. I supposed if other cultures had this shopping mall mentality when it came to dating, there'd be a world full of people who think they're worth more than having to settle for someone who's less than ideal - and then we'd all be alone.

Pinupprincess, are you at least willing to admit you're not necessarily every guy's ultimate catch either? If so, then I withdraw my arguement, because then you are being truly sincere. I'm not even a guy anyway, so what's the difference?

Not if your a white guy who thinks latina women are hot . But here in Australia, latina women might be deemed as a little more"exotic". It's not a common ethnicity here.

come on lady - you look and sound like you've been aound alot. Get over it already! like everyone is saying you like what you like and you can't help that. I gone through periods in my life where I only dated white guys, then chinese guys. So, really its all about you and not your family and sistas.

Thank you for summing it up for me. This is truly the best response I have read on this form so far. I find people have an expectation of you and when you don't produce they are disappointed. One thing that really "bugs me" is people will ask where I am from, I used to play around with this question! at times I would tell them that I am from barbados. I found with this response I had a longer conversation and they showed more interest in me. Other times I tell them I am from Nova Scotia and its like ok, I have a friend from there, well gotta go now. Whats up with that?

Is it wrong? Hmm.... well that depends. Is it wrong for a black guy to answer a latinas question about her preference for white men?

There is nothing wrong with knowing what you like. I personally usually go for white guys too, and then I feel a lil racist but I'm not! I mean I talk with and date some guys that arn't white that I'm attracted to but, some white guys just do it for me. You know?

^^^most people don't even know what turns them on until they're already in an unhappy sexless marriage to someone they chose based on some ridiculous arbitrary set of superficial criteria, which they only THOUGHT turned them on, and never thought about the long term happiness for either person. Then they wonder what they were thinking, and begin to search for a true soul connection. Such a shame when they could have avoided that trap to begin with.

Im latina, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with liking white men. You don't need to uphold someone elses definition of "keeping it real". For me, they just better like my latina cooking or else they're gone

OP - You're not 'wrong' you're just in the minority......(which,as far as the world is concerned, often ends up meaning the same thing....)
I didn't look at your profile, so I don't know where you are, but here in NM, it is EXTREMLY rare to see a 'latina' with a white guy.
The vast majority of them date hispanic (now there's a broad term.....) guys only, a few of them like black guys.
If you're a white guy, even just trying to talk to them or asking them to dance is usually a complete waste of time, so if this is similar in your area, your 'preference' will be very welcome to the white guys who like latin girls.

I'm still not quite sure what 'keepin' it real' actually means, but I'd still say that trying to sound like a 'gangsta' is VERY last week by now........

It's not that it's wrong, it's that hurts people's feelings. If you put in your profile, "I only date men 6'0'' or taller," short men will feel inadequate. If you put in "I only date white men," non-white men will be pissed. If you put, I only like thin men," fat men will feel bad.

So, exclude everyone you want. It's not necessarily "wrong." It is wrong to think that people you exclude should feel great about it.

Here's what I have to say sweetie....I loved one guy since I was 14...but he's gone now....he was hispanic and very tall.....back in those days (70s) everyone hated us for being together, even our own families.... but we didnt care what they thought....but basically when I first put my profile up here...I plainly stated that I wanted to seek a tall hispanic man....*grins*

My sons, who are mixed race.... accused me of being racist against my own race.....go figure.....anyways....they said how do you know you're only attracted to hispanic guys if Joe (their dad) was the only man I was ever with.....anyways to make them happy....I changed things up a bit.....*grins*

and now....I really like this *white* guy who is tall....on this site....we email back n forth and have a lot of fun....but nothing has came of it yet....anyways....I find myself attracted to him......so maybe they're right....who knows?

but good luck to you
