Racial Hangups?

I've had NO hangups although I wouldn't particularly care about the race of the other person. On an entirely physical plane I seem to prefer white or Asian but in the long run, race is completely insignificant.

I don't care for someones skin colour. If I were with someone from a different culture then I wouldn't be made to feel like I should be living their way of life, although I would like to find out more about it.

I'm mainly attracted to black guys, and I'm white. I do think some white guys are hot, but i think black men are very sexy

No hangups here but do find myself drawn more towards hispanics and blacks

I kind of feel like people put too much focus on appearance in general and not just skin color when it comes to their potential partners. Every now and then someone from school will ask me "what's your ideal partner?" and I start bringing up descriptions like "friendly, funny, intelligent, willing to travel" to which they reply "no I meant physically". This has happened at least 10 times and it confuses me. Isn't a good personality in itself attractive? o: I guess if a person has both "physical beauty" and a good personality it's even better, but still...

How is that an issue of race, though? It was probably changed from "protests" to "riots" because of the publisher, not because of a particular race or culture.

We all have different tastes. I think people are attracted to whatever they are attracted to. It doesn't necessarily mean it has to be your race. I tend to like darker skin but not too dark. I personally tend to really like hispanic guys, greek guys, lighter skinned black guys or even some arabic guys. However, the personality, how they act and how the treat people is more important to me. In other words if I found a blond hair and blue eyed guy who has a good head on his shoulders, I would consider it a win!

I think its anything for me..

My first boyfriend looks Chinese
And my current boyfriend for 3 years is mixed. He looks Latino or middle eastern for me though.

But when it comes to infatuations and crushes, I like Asians with mixed ancestry, Hispanics, Whites. I also like Black but quite rare. I dont usually stick to a certain race I guess.. It really depends. If you love the person, then you love him no matter what his race is. Im not a hypocrite but I guess physical attractiveness is just a minor thing to me. His personality and character matter more to me.

Like what they say, beauty is not definite. We define it.

No matter what their race is, if you are drawn to them, then you are drawn to them.
