"Rather than putting "no black/Asian" etc why not specify what you are looking for. It sounds much more positive." | |||

"What it is I wanted to ask .....is it wrong to put in your profile not interested in blacks or Asian or is that classed as racist" 1. Wrong - no 2. Racist - no 2.a. Racist - yes to those who see racism in the word black. Even if you are talking about a car | |||

"There is a difference between not wanting to see a certain race for "sex" and not wanting to meet/see a race in "public" or "socialising". One is racist and the other is a preference for yourself." I understand what you're saying but is it possible to find an entire race unattractive? | |||

"I'm guessing we will all get the hint after this post" Does putting 'I will do blacks and Asians' help me get the meets I want? I haven't bothered yet but it does make me think. | |||

"I haven't put a preference as there are some really good looking black and Asian men. But they are in short supply on here " Not where I live. OP if you only want to meet white European or British people put it on your profile. It may lessen the need to keep refusing. Or you could block all couples and search using the ethnicity search function. | |||

I understand what you're saying but is it possible to find an entire race unattractive?" For me being someone that is only looking for black guys it isn't the same as saying "i find all black guys attractive" or even that "i find all others unattractive". What makes you think that? | |||

I don't personally but there are specific women and men I have seen numerous times that they can't date/shag asians because they creep them out or it just seems wrong etc. | |||

My first husband was Asian and I'm sorry to say that the attitude you describe was prevalent then and it would seem still is | |||

Saying 'Mexicans are creepy' is discriminatory. Saying a certain person gives you the creeps is not. PS Mexicans aren't a race. | |||

"What it is I wanted to ask .....is it wrong to put in your profile not interested in blacks or Asian or is that classed as racist as I don't like ignoring people but also don't want to say to every black or Asian couple Sorry we are not interested was going to put it on profile but didn't want it to sound racist" No it's racist that's just a personal preferences. | |||

"No jammezz. You don't understand what racism is. Look it up." I'll happily change my thoughts if you can connect these. From google: racist, a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another. Statement: Natasha feels uncomfortable in the company of Israeli people. | |||

"I've met some black and Asian guys so gorgeous they've taken my breath away. Nothing to do with their skin colour - they just were lucky in the looks department (and another department, but that's a whole other story). I am happy to take up peoples slack if they don't want to meet them. Mmmmm..." Me too!! | |||

"Although I totally understand how you maybe drawn to a certain physical type (I know I am), it does seem a bit narrow minded and prejudiced to write off a whole group of people based on skin colour. I certainly wouldn't meet a couple who had that on their profile as I'd assume ( rightly or wrongly ) that they were closed minded people and we wouldn't get on. Think, as other pp have said, there are more positive ways of attracting the sort of people you want to meet. " Don't forget that just because a profile specifies a particular interest that doesn't necessarily reflect real life.... | |||

"There is a difference between not wanting to see a certain race for "sex" and not wanting to meet/see a race in "public" or "socialising". One is racist and the other is a preference for yourself. I understand what you're saying but is it possible to find an entire race unattractive? Of course. I don't personally but there are specific women and men I have seen numerous times that they can't date/shag asians because they creep them out or it just seems wrong etc. I'm sorry but saying 'so and so creeps me out because he is Asian' is a whole new level. That is racist. Not finding them attractive isn't (although personally I think that's weird). Would you really classify that as racist? Let's just pick a race at random say mexican men. Is a woman saying "they make me feel uncomfortable to be near" racist if she doesn't hate them for a particular reason and she's open about it?" In a word - YES | |||

"What it is I wanted to ask .....is it wrong to put in your profile not interested in blacks or Asian or is that classed as racist as I don't like ignoring people but also don't want to say to every black or Asian couple Sorry we are not interested was going to put it on profile but didn't want it to sound racist" I don't think it's racist if you genuinely dislike darker skin tones or other features. I *do* think it's racist if you dismiss all black or other ethnic minorities because of a preconceived stereotype, or for some political stance you hold. | |||

"Many profiles have BBC only so I don't see why you can't look for white only." I would say that's problematic too, because it's reducing a person to the level of a commodity based on a preconceived notion about that race. | |||

It will save everyone time. | |||

That's my opinion on it as for those who take it the wrong way block away . Having said that as a couple or single woman in this world you have the balance of the power the best use of that power is to be proactive and be the one making the first move by messaging guys or couples that catch your eye . But that's good advice for any situation in life where the power to succeed is in your hands take control and make it happen instead of waiting for it to happen . | |||

"OP, put what you want on your profile. People might assume from it that you might hold racist views but why would you care? I share nicecouple's curiosity about how you can find a whole race unattractive. I think it is one of the downsides of the 'tick option' approach to sites like fab. I liken it to pre Sat Nav days where you sometimes get lost and discover a nice pub you never knew existed. " As i said further up, the op never said they find entire races unattractive, it might just not be what they are looking for on here. | |||

I understand what you're saying but is it possible to find an entire race unattractive? Put that way then, I must find an entire gender unattractive because I am not looking for women. I think you are now arguing that black is white now. Why is that assumption any more ridiculous than the assumption that because i don't want to meet white guys i must therefore find them unattractive? I think you are being defensive which might be getting in the way of reading posts objectively. The original assumption was made in relation to someone not in your situation - she is not married to a black or Asian guy and then wanting to put no black or Asian on their profile. You can then make the assumption that she does not find them attractive. Your husband is white, you are only looking for black guys. It would be erroneous to assume from your context that you find white guys unattractive. Stop taking it personally. I'm not taking it personally at all, just using myself as an example to illustrate a point that you are merely making assumptions that have no basis on actual fact. Like many do on here. I'm just challenging that assumption. Your context is different to the OP's so using yourself as an example to challenge an assumption made about the OP is not a valid comparison, especially when it was more of a question than assumption and it was in no way critical. My head hurts, I give up. But the op never said they find all black and Asian people unattractive. You give up already? Yay that means i win you havnt won I always win That's bollocks I have them you don't I win ,yaaaaaaaay But i have a pussy. ...i think you'll find that trumps bollocks on here Can I say as the person who made the "is it possible to find an entire race unattractive?" That is was a question not an assumption. That is how I read it, but then I wasn't being defensive and taking it personally........sorry I did say I had given up didn't I " I don't think there is anything defensive in my posts. I just wonder where the question came from as the op didn't mention anything about finding an entire race unattractive. | |||

"OP, put what you want on your profile. People might assume from it that you might hold racist views but why would you care? I share nicecouple's curiosity about how you can find a whole race unattractive. I think it is one of the downsides of the 'tick option' approach to sites like fab. I liken it to pre Sat Nav days where you sometimes get lost and discover a nice pub you never knew existed. " | |||

"Great I had last word so I won but bottom line is as soon as we mentioned ethnic origin as a way of limiting messages coz after all that's what it is ,we created a situation where people could be offended just to limit your messages,was it worth it one asks x " For the odd message i get (and I'm talking 2 that have been offended in 3 years) Yes it's worth it. Plus i believe it has considerably cut down on the amount of unnecessary messages. My mail box is never inundated. So yes. It works brilliantly for me | |||

"To be honest it almost doesn't matter what preference you state because no one takes any notice and you still get them contacting you. If we had a fiver for every average dicked guy who has contacted us despite clearly stating we want 9" plus we would be rich well you are limiting your options " Your the perfect example of what I am saying !!!! Having clearly not made the criteria you will still seem compelled to get in touch for some lemming like reason! | |||

"What it is I wanted to ask .....is it wrong to put in your profile not interested in blacks or Asian or is that classed as racist as I don't like ignoring people but also don't want to say to every black or Asian couple Sorry we are not interested was going to put it on profile but didn't want it to sound racist" Putting it on your profile could put other people off contacting you, as they may perceive you as racist. It has been mentioned on here before that some people wouldn't meet someone who put this on their profile. On the other hand, if you get plenty of messages, you may not care. It is your profile after all. Cal x | |||
