Wow! Is this the 1940's where you even have to ask this question? It use to be blonde, brunette, or red head. We as people have evolved from that & can extend it to anything we wish. Colour, really shouldn't mater, It's personal taste & like's.....

Only you know what attracts you. That is "keeping it real." Nobody else can decide for you. Likewise, those other people who are giving you negative feedback are free to be attracted to whomever they wish.

You forget that being Latina is an ethnic description; Latina is not a race. Latinas can be white, African American, Native American, Asian (yes there are many.) The one thing we all have in common is that we speak Spanish. So, don't buy into that racial bias thing and date whom you please -with no excuses to anyone! If a jerk does not appreciate you for who you are, he does not deserve you.

PS- you should not have asked a guy; you should have asked another Latina, like me.

Stay true to who you are and what you're attracted to. Race may be important to some as much as physical body type or height. As long as you don't have a racial bias as in treating someone worse in general, then I don't see anything wrong with it. It is your own personal attraction. Some people may be turned off by blondes, does that make them a bad person? No. Some womenmay not prefer a guy who is over 5'6", does that make them a bad person? No.

I'll take a slightly dissenting position. No, it's not wrong if it's just physical attraction.

I do think it's WEIRD that you would not be attracted at all to any latino guys. Sort of like a guy who only likes blondes, and refuses to date super-model brunettes. That would be weird to me.

But if it's really what you like, whatever...

I think Latina woman are hotties, never dated one but I would in a heartbeat. So there's nothing wrong with your preferance.

People who tell you to be true to your race....


Your "race" is human. As long as you are dating humans, I can't see that there is any problem to bother about.

It's fine for me. I'd happily date a latina. They are sooo sexy, and passionate.

But it might put a chink in a a**** latino's armour.

Also, it might scare some controlling latina wome. Some women want to feel that they can dictate who their friends will and will not date, so as to keep the "sisterhood" together. Anyone who is willing to be open-minded can be seen as an enormous threat to them.

But, do you really want to belong to a society of controlling and possessive people? I'm not into control freaks. Why should you?

I'm not saying that all latinos and latinas are control freaks. See Ugly Betty for examples of non control freaks. But some are, and they're not worth your time and energy. FYI, those same control freaks are also the same ones who don't want they people in their community to branch out and get an education and a good job.

“Pinupprincess”…

Lets be honest… WE ALL have our preferences (I certainly know I do…there are just some types of men I am attracted too and one’s I am not no mater how hard I try…lol)…

I know you are asking a guy but thought I may be able to assist…

So… “no” I don’t think anything is wrong with preferring a “certain type” of man…..however ….I would suggest not advertising “only Caucasian men” on your profile… I totally understand what you mean by this, but please read on as to WHY I suggest this…

The reason is… I made the mistake of doing this a while back on my profile and got a LOT of flack for it… so I removed that from my profile (old profile… right now am revising it so what I have on is temporary) ….and then focused on the qualities I desired in a date (or future partner)… I tend to filter out when I receive emails (sending a polite email back that is just not the right match). I found by posting it on my profile I was offending some men (and women searching for their male friends) and that was NEVER my intention…

I also later realized that it came across as ethnocentric (which is NOT me at all)…

Hope this helps…

I am sorry that you are so swayed by the tho....no, 'thoughts' is a little too generous, the stated opinions of people who, by their very actions of posting what they must have, showed that they were far more bigoted and opinionated than you, judging from what I've read, could ever be.

You like what you like. Period. Your likes and dislikes have been shaped by years of living in situations that not one of us could guess. They are unique to you. There is a Seneca quote I heard a long time ago that goes, "May the Great Spirit grant that I do not judge my neighbour until I have walked a mile in his moccasins." Like what you like and say so and to the pits with anybody who does not like it.

Just be sure that whatever you put in your profile reflects the real you.

Stay well.

Does anyone think it is wrong for me to have a preferance for white men even though I'm latina?


I whole heartedly support any women who prefer white men, especially if they prefer white, chubby, geeky, men.

Why "Keep it Real" when you can "Make it a Fairytale" ?

Latina? Where is that? Lol J/k. But seriously what is a Latina really? If your from america it generally means your mixed with Native American and White anyway. Where as if your form europe... well I don't even think they call themselves that. Anyway. You like what you like. Besides your the one who has to live with that person so you better be satisfied.

When it comes to choosing who you spend time with, theres no such thing as racism. It's your personal preference.

I think latin People are confused, sorry to say but when in america if you not white your black.


I don't think it's the "latin People" who are confused. That was just plain ignorant.

You’re preference is your preference, I had along time in my life I would only date one ethnicity. Here is the thing, later I discovered that it was based of preconceived notions that I had about American women that weren’t completely accurate.

I’ve grown and changed over the years and become more open minded. Now I can honestly say it doesn’t matter to me what nationality or race a woman is.

So what im saying is your preference is your preference there is no fault in that nor do you have control over it so it’s not wrong.

On the other hand, strive to be an open minded person and don’t base decisions subconciously on preconceived stereotypes and prejudices.

Ther is nothing wrong with having preferences, there is something wrong with those preferences being based on closedminded idea's

I see nothing wrong with it. I'm actually more attracted to Latina women than white women. You have a right to be attracted to who you want to be attracted to. BTW, you look a lot like elvis in one of your pics lol. And we're not white boys, we're white guys/men.

No, it's not wrong. I think a reason a lot of Latinas like white guys is because they tend to be taller and have blue or green eyes. That probably turns a lot of Latinas on. I'm not so tall (part-Spanish myself) and I have dark brown eyes, so when I've dated Latinas they were "surprised" I had eyes about as dark as hers.

Then again, there are white women who only go for Hispanic men. I have some female cousins like that. It all balances out in the end.

I think that's ok. I'm the same way. I've never dated someone from my own race, but I've dated plenty of white girls. The weird thing is I would date a latina, but no latinas have ever been interested in me. I don't really mind though, I have thing for very pale girls, so I don't think I'm missing out.

No there's nothing wrong, except if your involved with gangs like the "Sharks" and the "Jets".
