[quote=Anonymous]http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2014/04/okcupid_and_race_is_it_racist_to_date_only_people_of_your_own_race.html I disagree with the article. I think racism is when someone looks down on someone or finds them to be inferior in some way solely due to their race. However, we are all entitled to have personal preferences in terms of appearance, interests, and particularly in seeking a life partner of a similar background. After all, that sort of commonality is often very helpful in building a relationship. I only wanted to marry someone that shared my religion - doesnt mean I think other religions are bad or inferior to mine, but I just felt like I wanted to raise kids with a certain set of beliefs and its considerably easier when your partner shares those beliefs. I remember getting some pushback from friends to give guys a chance, but I certainly never felt my preferences were "Racist."[/quote]
