Identity politics and dating

oh jeez, now i’m going to ask how @Hanna feels about someone saying they don’t like x Race girls y nationality girls lol

I’ve asked my father before whether he prefers Asian women. His response was “No. I just think your mom is great. But I will say, I don’t like fat people.” :rofl:

At that point…well, I’ll make some assumptions accordingly.

That could have just been the diplomatic answer. He may have secret stash of hentai Asian porn hidden around the house somewhere. :sunglasses:

What’s the difference between you finding x race girls attractive and not finding x race girls attractive?

I don’t think my pops even knows what hentai is.

In my mind there isn’t much difference. They’re both pretty empty statements.

Not really, they’re drawing from experience and knowledge. I have a limited time, even more limited for selecting a mate. If in my life i’ve never found a british woman attractive, i’m probably not going to live there.

People arrive at their preferences in all different types of ways, though. Some people want something comfortable and familiar. Others yearn for something wildly different from everything they’ve known. So in the end it still doesn’t really mean anything to me when people tell me they have x preference or y preference. It’s just like, welp, good for you.

Unless it pertains to me, I guess. I’ll listen when a good-looking guy tells me he’s an ass man or he likes short chicks. That’s meaningful to me!

It doesn’t have to be mean anything for you, it’s useful for basically everyone else.

This is fair enough, I have never found myself fancying Italian Women because in my mnd they or often attractive but more trouble than they are worth - or trouble I am willing to see through anyway (I’ve met and cooked for my TW wife’s mother, I know fear… :wink: ) but ‘technically’ we are both racist if we say these things. My only point was (a) to finally join in on the forum and (b) say that yeah, if he says that in London, it’s not gonna go down well - but for “these” reasons, which aren’t quite as depressing as he might imagine.

So are you aware that Andrew’s wife is Italian or…

:popcorn:

they’re married? They do it over the holidays like crazy Miley Cyrus?
@Andrew0409 ?

Oh are they not married yet? I thought they were.

:fearful: Another wedding I have missed

well, think of it as money saved from one less red envelope to hand over, if indeed he secretly got married without telling the whole universe of forumosa

I was not aware of that. Crap.

Errr… I guess I can only say I mean my dis with the greatest respect.

the fun times are when the two cutie pies chat on the same topic while apparently siiting in the same room without any verbal communication between each other.
at that time, forumosa becomes a tennis communication platform, and we the audience

I take absolutely zero offense, seriously. You as an man can like or dislike any type of women for any reason. What am I going to do, force you to like someone you don’t personally find attractive? I don’t think it’s racist or bigoted anymore than I’m fat phobic or whatever. Attraction is not really a choice.

I hope none of you sexists are dating / married to women smaller than yourselves:

But “hogging” is totally ethical.
