it would have been interesting to have this story come out as:
1. I met a girl on internet
2. We got along, things were great
3. She sent a picture
4. I told her to beat it because she was black
Then see how bad you would get piled on.
I see it as racist. She is making a decision based soley on race, isn't that the definition of racist?

OK...what about...
1. I met a girl on internet
2. We got along, things were great
3. She sent a picture
4. I told her to beat it because she was fat
Is this equally as bad? Same thing or different? [/b][/quote]
In jonesy's example, the person is discriminating based on race.
In your example, Jiri, the person is discriminating based on weight.
Both are preferences. One based on race. The other based on weight.
