What Ethnicity Are You Attracted To?

dru is by your side.:

Indian girls are pretty gorgeous.

ayanasioux:

Yeah, Indian girls are pretty. If I were a guy and I had to chose to date a race other than black, I'd chose Indian.

I know this obviously wasn't directed at me, but just thought i'd say awwww thanks guys

dru's in the dark.:

I dig on really pale guys. Being pale is a turn-on for me, so any ethnicity that's pale.

Me too, probably because I enjoy the pale side of life myself
This probably comes off as racist, but I'd never date outside my race, partially because that's how I was raised but mainly because I'm only attracted to white guys.

The Way:

But in general, regarding both sexes, I've never been attracted to a particular race as much as a "look" which mostly involves dark hair and striking features. Someone exotic.

This.

I think I'm attracted to them all, just Asians a little less ’cos I am Asian. But there's this dude in my homebase class who's got this naturally wavy hair (he's ABC, American Born Chinese) and most Asians don't have curly/wavy hair. He has a long-ish face, too, and... yeah. Kinda relates to what I quoted from The Way.

Plus the Asian accents are kinda annoying, but that's just me. I like Aussie/NZ accents a little better than, y'know, British accents.

ayanasioux:

Ohh, you're a first I've seen (liking black and Asian girls.)

Lol I dont think ive met anyone but me whos attracted to both either.

Well, where I live, it's common. You're just the first on this site that I've seen. Everyone else is saying white people or pale people (some probably having to do with the fact that the majority of the people that come on this site are white)

I just like pale skin. I'm fairly confident I would still like pale skin if I weren't white.

I'm white and I'm not attracted to pale.

I like extremities. Extremely pale or extremely dark. I do like tans as well, as long as they aren't orange or they simply don't fit the persons facial structure.

Also, there have been studies that say a person's personal preference is linked to whom they were around when they were younger. These facial structures, skin tones, even personality traits, etc. set the groundwork for what the person is attracted to or not attracted to, if the experiences was bad when you were younger. It's unconscious - your brain collects what is 'comfortable' for it. Sort of like how a person may not feel comfortable in another country. (There are, of course, several other factors in sexual preference but I don't feel like essays.)

So, I believe Ayanasioux may be right. Due to the fact that most races are actually still unconsciously segregated by class, country, etc., it's not far-fetched to believe a person whom has primarily been around their own race finds theirs the most attractive and again if someone of another race is around another race the most and has good experiences, they may find that race the most attractive.

I need to be more concise.

Hmm... I'm pretty much only into Hispanics but I grew up around all white people.

Oh man, just give me a sexy accent, and I'm good to go. Your skin could be hot pink for all I care, but if you have an accent, I'm all over you.

German, Italian, Polish, French, Dutch. Doesn't really matter. I just don't go for dark [black] or mocha complexions. I like my men tall, between five' ten'' and six' two inches''. I love either Blue or Green eyes on a man. No dark, I don't like dark eyes. The lighter the better. I love it when they are atheletically built or just slim but I will never be able to deny a man with sharp, toned muscles ")

I think that's why I'm not attracted to black men. My mum's friends are from loads of different ethnicities, but not black (there's a mixed race guy, but that's it). They kind of intimidate me I suppose, and my mum did have one black boyfriend once but I didn't like him. Negative childhood experiences, I guess. I'm also not attracted to Indian men as I had an Indian stalker in secondary school.

Everything else and I'm really not bothered. XD

Caucasian, for the most I'd say.

I'd like to see how your preferred ethnicity relates to your ethnicity...
I prefer Indian and darker skinned/black women. Although I'm not sure darker skinned/black is an ethnicity. Ethnicity is too vague a term..

I'm black, not dark. Some people call me coffee with creamer. Anyway, I like white men. It's partly because they tend to be the ones that are intelligent and are ambitious. I just naturally find them attractive. I've never really desired a black man.

I love the French and Russians!

Farce.:

Ditto. I prefer white guys, though I'd be okay with Japanese or Korean guys too.
I always get looked at funny for not dating within my own race, but I could care less.
Got cornered by 6 different people on my last trip to the hair salon.
Anyway, British and Scottish or Irish accents. NOM. Though white American boys are nice, too :P

Sheogorath:

Interesting thread. Scandanavian men. Tall, sexy Scandanavian men.

''Heck yeah I can agree with that.''

Farce.:

Aw, It's kind of messed up how you're downing the black guys of our race. I know a lot of really smart and ambitious black guys and plenty of unintelligent, apathetic white bums. I guess it depends upon where you live and the people you're around.

dre shoots up.:

I just like pale skin. I'm fairly confident I would still like pale skin if I weren't white.

Hey, you never know until you walk in someone else's shoes. I say that I would hate myself if I were white, but I've never been white, so I'd never know.

Some people say they hate being white, but they don't know what it's like being black, and how life is different and how people treat you differently.

I've never been attracted to oriental-asian guys. Chinese, Japanese, Korean etc. Just I've never seen anyone of that ethnicity who I've found hot. It's strange, I really only fancy white or mixed race guys with the occasional Black or Indian guy (and I say this as someone who's Indian).

I know it's not my fault, I can't control it, but I sometimes almost feel bad/ashamed of the fact. It makes me feel like I'm inherently racist or something, without even meaning to be, if that makes sense?
