I've lived in a few non-caucasian majority countries, and the more you get to see the nuances and characteristics of the local faces, the more you fancy the locals.

I still tend to prefer Caucasian males. Ange didn't outright use racist or hateful words, so this doesn't feel like outright racism to me. If she was to absolutely stray away from black people as a rule (for friends) based on how they look, or based on stereotypes, then I'd definitely call that racist.Mina McKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01355682637244384472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971077270766122919.post-40506658506713808942008-02-05T20:19:00.000+00:002008-02-05T20:19:00.000+00:00Very interesting.

I would say that you can't control who you find attractive. I see dozens of men I fancy every day - black, white, other - but have never yet found a south Asian guy attractive.<BR/><BR/> I suppose I wouldn't say categorically that I never will, because it's always possible. However I would freely admit that I don't fancy south asian men and I do not think this makes me at all racist.<BR/><BR/>As a comparison, I know lots of men who insist on blondes. Would you describe them as racist?<BR/><BR/>BTW your blog is great, keep up the good work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971077270766122919.post-36945312121352920332008-01-20T20:57:00.000+00:002008-01-20T20:57:00.000+00:00Would you say that all the black fellows who like ...Would you say that all the black fellows who like having blondes hanging on their arms racist or perhaps they just prefer blondes. This PC rubish is crazy. If you can't fancy who you want doesn't make you a racist. To say so is the height of predjudice and another sign of the nanny state.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971077270766122919.post-11630204447814455442008-01-20T17:38:00.000+00:002008-01-20T17:38:00.000+00:00This is absurd!
