If a man won't hire my wife cause I'm latino, well hello. everyone jumps in with a higher-than-thou WASP opinion thinking they understand racism because they wrote the book. there is NOTHING wrong with the way OP feels. everyone has things they look for in a mate, and this particular preference is benign.

everyone who is calling OP racist has no clue. I'm not even white, and I have similar feelings. I'm latino, and if a latina dated a white, asian, or black before me, it would give me second thoughts about making a move. Now, if I were interested in a woman of another race, her past would mean little. Its weird, but that is the way it is. But as someone mentioned, a persons past with complete scumbags is an even more serious issue

OK - Brass tacks:
As a background I think (which means it's just my opinion) that Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, has racist tendancies... I've even postulated that this is biological, in that the majority of people are sexually attracted to those whose genetic difference is not greatly dissimilar.
Additionaly I'm able to seperate my objective acknowledgement of that racism from the social negative connotation. Racism is by its nature an inflammatory and contentious issue, especially in America.
If I were to say that the OP's action were inspired by a groundless racial bias and that it would behoove him to reassess his reasons for that bias, would it be acceptable?

This is NORMAL. But I'll lay money, if you say something even remotely about white people, you'll get a damn warning PM. BS threads like this are cliche. But its ok because its concerning blacks. Then you get all the ones who get in their little racial comments. These are the poster boys for Clorox.

define "too small", varies according to female.
Solution, talk to female - aquire more information.
For once I agree with you. Look how many wrist-slaps McDunce got for all but dressing up in white sheets here, only finally getting banned for something which had little to do with racism (see sig).Originally posted by: classy
Man if your white, you can get away with just about anything here as long as its directed at blacks. This is the BS that just gets my blood boiling.

Great post IMO. Thanks for setting all the "I'm white but feel your pain even though I have no idea what you're talking about" posters straight.

my problem is:
1. as mosh said earlier there are degrees of racism and yes, in my opinion, there are acceptable levels of "racism".
2. the fact that most of the inflammatory remarks were made by supposedly enlightened people and all they could show is intolerance.
3. you can't get rid of racism by refusing to talk about it.
4. the comment by darkstar above is good example, his implication that only black people know what racism is. puhleease. many people have suffered. many cultures have suffered.
to really get to issues of racism, we have to be willing to discuss it not just shout insults at each other.
Have you seen how brutally prejudicial kids can be though, and how cruelly they will pick on, segregate, and torture, those that they view as "different"? I don't really think that you have. That segregation may not occur primarily along racial lines, true, it could well be anything. But to paint a picture that younger humans don't discriminate, is very incorrect. I think that perhaps in later years, they learn that other humans, are indeed "different" in ways, that also lie upon racial lines, that might explain further development of their discriminatory behavior along those lines later on as they grow up, although much of that may have to do with cultural backgrounds/traditions too, rather that purely skin color. (Things such as customs, clothing, religious observations/practices, etc.) Even as late as high school, sometimes those things can get you branded as "different" and discriminated against by your peers. (I used to get asked if I was Amish, as a matter of fact.)Originally posted by: Arkitech
Actually its not a nature thing, there have been studies on this by observing young children. Young kids will play and interact with each other regardless of the color, but as they grow older based on their environment and upbringing thats when these suspicions and prejudices of other races creep in.
