I wouldn't be surprised if there were TONS of white guys (many of my friends included... maybe myself), who might not overtly say "I only date white chicks', but at the same time, they 'feel' that they are only attracted to caucasians.# Is this racism?# Is it racist when you harbour no ill-will towards any other races, but prefer to stick with your own 'kind' in romantic circles?

I think so.
When you make a decision based on a person's race, that is, by definition, racism.
At least, that's how I feel.

I understand what you are saying but again I ask the question. How is it different from someone only being attracted to blonde girls? Or tall guys? Or redheads? Its all part of the physical attributes that form a great deal of the basis for attraction. Shallow? Yes. Racist? Not sure.

Well, sure I have my preferences, and I prefer dark hair, smaller girls...but does that mean I wont even give the light of day to even look or say hi to a say a blonde who stands 5'10 and bit overweight? No, because I look past the physical attributes. I treat everyone else, like how I want to be treated. I dont like to be judged or stereotyped, therefore I dont do it to others - especially people you dont even know! I guess Im just very accepting of people for the way they are - just how I was brought up.

Well bully for you.
If a girl if a bit overweight you will talk to her? Well that's just swell! What if she's a lot overweight? Does that change things? Where is the line drawn?
If you are indeed such an open minded dude then why on earth would you want anything to do with a girl who is so much shallower than you?
