[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that attraction among races is steeped in cultural prejudices. But those prejudices seem very arbitrary and don't necessarily follow a pattern in terms of which groups have been historically disadvantaged.

The hierarchy of attractiveness (recognizing that everyone has their individual preferences) seems to go more or less as follows:
1. White women
2. Black men.
3. Asian women.
4. White men.
5. Asian men.
6. Black women.

Actually, that dating study that got so much press showed that women of all races other than black have the highest response to white men and lowest response to black men. So I'm not sure where you pulled your ranking from?

Asian woman here... it seems that article pulled the data from dating apps, which IMO, is not necessarily reflective of real life.

I know many Asians, and most of them are married to other Asians.  I am married to a white European, and I know several interracial couples of different persuasions.

I'm wondering how many of those people are picking certain races on dating apps because they are curious and want to experience sex with someone of a different race.

[quote]Perhaps most surprising is that among men, all racial groups preferred another race over their own.[/quote][/quote]
