It could work for racial restrictions, but where do we stop though? Fat people will want weight restrictions, tall and short people will want height restrictions, etc.
Welcome to the world of online dating, best of luck to ya. | |

Posted: 2/18/2008 5:30:16 PM | Hey, you like what you like and you want what you want. I like chocolate ice cream more than I like strawberry. Many man don't like women like me, but MANY, MANY men do! I don't whine every time a man is not attracted to me because I am sure that some are very attracted to me.
I have been approached by White men, Black men, Asians, Italians, Native Americans, Indians, Physically challenged men, Old men, and
Young men (even minors). Not one was rejected because of their skin color, but because of attitude . There are so many gorgeous men in every race--THANK YOU GOD!
Personally, I just like an intelligent, hardworking, fine man who is not full of hate. He can be as white as an Alpine mountain-top or as Black as a thousand nights (before the heat lamp was created). He could even be physically challenged but I want to see his heart and his soul. To me, that is the ultimate!
I am going to re-check my profile & update it for specifics to read:

Posted: 2/18/2008 10:12:58 PM | I feel sorry for Asian guys, it seems western women consider Asian men bottom of the barrel (excapt Asian women unless she's all about white men).
However I see discrimination against blacks (all blacks are criminals and irresponsible, etc) and latino's (same stereotype)
However I do not see any negative stereotypes against Asian men, they simply are not desired
I have seen white women with Asian men but it was RARE, I have not seen however a Asian man married to a caucasian women except once and they were in they're 40's
I see black men with white women but oddly that is more rare that you would think, it's more white men with Asian women I see | |

Posted: 2/22/2008 8:03:22 PM | | What's funny is i saw a profile a few days ago from a woman that said" no black guys'.in the heading...it was harsh, and would make you wonder what shes has against them and (it was kind of amusing)...but at least she was being truthful!...and if a black guy sends her a message he does it knowing he won't have a chance with her. | |

I can only speak for myself, but I can honestly say I've never sensed/experienced any alienation by non-Asian females due to the fact that I was Asian. I would have to say 90% of the females that have checked me out and/or flirted with me were Caucasian.
What you are describing may well be true for smaller cities/towns but I don't believe it's as dire as you are describing in larger cities. | |

I'm short, and I'm Asian.
So I guess I'm kinda screwed in the online dating thing, huh.
*sigh*
If women out there don't like me for whatever reason, it's not my place to tell them they're wrong. But I do think it'd be nice if I could see on women's profile that they won't go out with me right from the get go, for whatever reason I can't control. It'd save me the time of writing to them.
That would be nice for everyone, right? Big-enders don't like Little-enders. It's not my place to convince either that they're wrong, even if their differences are in all reality, trivial. But somewhere I think it'd be nifty if I could see they didn't like .
And that's how I see things. | |

Posted: 2/22/2008 8:50:06 PM | | I'm also Asian, and I have talk to all kind of people. Surprisingly most of my ex were hispanic. I had one that was El Salvadorian/Chinese. Im guessing it all depends on what cities you stay in. I know a guy that stay in Nebraska(small Asian population) that the people there stay in their own ethnic group. In houston I have seen cacuasian females with Asian males all the time. I also see a lot of caucasian females with African American males. | |

And you lie about your age in such a way that either makes you sounds dumb or else you think the women reading your profile are dumb enough to fall for it.

I'd go out with you but you are distance challenged. Or I am. Plus you're probably more eligible for my oldest daughter. But you're cute. Just thought I'd mention it.

^^^^^^^^Bingo!......the OP is using the race issue as an excuse for women rejecting his emails..
It has nothing to do with your race....women see through you....from your profile and the way you portray yourself in the forums..
You are trolling for pity.....that is why some of your threads you have posted have been deleted.....IMO | |

Posted: 2/24/2008 8:23:25 AM | | I think if someone is so set on dating within their own ethnicity, whatever. But I can't see the point, myself. I don't see people in terms of ethnic groups, colours or whathaveyou. If it wasn't for interracial marriage, I wouldn't even be alive, so it gets a hearty two thumbs up from me! | |

If you choose not to date a black man, that is your right. But why do you care if a black man emails or dates another white woman. That is their business. Not yours. BTW you could state your racial requirements with more tact. Such as "I am only interested in white men" instead of "don't contact me if you are black" | |

IMO it does. A person who matches your requirement can also lose interest in you in you state your requirement without tact. For example, if a man states in his profile "Don't contact me if your are fat", then even some thin, athletic/fit, and average women could lose interest in him. | |

I could care less if you wouldn't want to date me because I'm black. I have no problem with a stating a racial requirement on a profile. Then I wouldn't be wasting any of my time and effort sending an email to that person. My point is some people that match your requirements could also lose interest in you because of the way you stated your requirements, not necessary the requirement itself. | |

Posted: 2/24/2008 10:36:04 AM | | if a man has a problem wiht any of my requirements which are very few then he isnt worth my time now is he? and my requirement are not hard. most men fit my requirements. there very simply normal requierments. | |

Posted: 2/24/2008 4:40:26 PM | | Some people claim 'preference' when everything they say and 'post' screams racist redneck! That's when it's scary - when they are so ignorant to their own racism - that's what perpetuates it. However illiteracy may be a determining factor in how they come off to others! | |

people on here though should only go after white if they are white and black if htey are black.
Are you f*cking serious????
You do realize that this is not only a racist statement, it's basically what Nazis were preaching, right?
But... come to think of it, you ARE serious because this is not the first time that you have decided to spit out this crap.
if ur black then u shoudltn even message a white woman.
Perhaps we should have separate dating sites... you know, for whites and non-whites... Because, non-whites should not even be allowed to look at the profiles of pretty Aryan ladies such as yourself.
but then again there are some white women who date black.
There are? OHHHH, the horror.... the shame... We should burn them on stakes, right? Do you even realize how ignorant and hateful this statements are?
im one who is totally agaisnt it. but thats jsut my choice.
Yes, we got the picture. However, you stated already that this is more than your preference... that this is what SHOULD be.. that people SHOULD stick to your own race.
I posted in another thread already that this is precisely what Jim Crow laws were about, as well as the laws in Nazi Germany, and South Africa during the Apartheid... but, I guess that was too complicated for some people to understand.
So... perhaps instead of putting insulting comments in their profile, such people should post a photo of themselves in a white hood... that would make it easier for those who are not members to stay away from them...
Or they can join any of the following dating sites:
www. WhiteAndStupidOnly.com
www.PlentyOfKlan.com
www.LynchersDoggieStyle.org
www.KnightsoftheWhite Kamelia.com
www.ClansmanLove.com
Seriously, statements like the ones above only make me wanna
