It's just what you're attracted to. I'm blonde with very pale skin and I'm attracted men with a darker complexion and dark hair.

As a Eurasian person, with a white European mother and an Asian father, it feels really weird to me (borderline offensive) that you would second-guess yourself. Racist? Come on. There are better things to do with your time than agonize over this.

i like guys with long hair and an artistic personality and a superb intellect

does this make me a hippy? or a perpetual student?

what a frigging dopy thread.

I could have written this post, except I'm 35 and married to a pale white guy (ginger). FWIW, I'm very proud of my culture so I don't think I'm racist in any way.

PS my kids are gorgeous.

Not self-hating unless you have a strict "no Indian guys" policy. IMO, something is not quite right with a person who writes off ALL potential partners of their race.

The heart wants what it wants.

Op, only you can answer that question.

Not racist, just crazy! Indian guys are superhot. Like any race, when they're not, they're not, but when they are....grrr... but like what you like- not a big deal- I think you get oriented to what you were raised around, so your high school years imprinted you.

-blonde and super-white girl

Why?

Some "blonde super preppy Americana boys" may find you attractive too

Too bad I'm a white guy with black hair

I'm half Indian and half white. I'm completely and totally unattracted to Indian guys and white guys. Does that make me self-hating? I don't know.

Lots of people have types they're attracted to (although this can change significantly in one person's lifetime). It's one thing if certain traits get your, erm, juices flowing, and another thing if you have prejudices against other groups.

Why is that racist?! It's a preference you have, just like people may prefer to date brunettes rather than blondes.

A part of it feels natural; I went to an all white high school. The other feels strange. Why don't I want to date Indian guys?

I'm so confused!

Self-racism is a serious condition, only alleviated by self-masturbation.

Like Mindy Kaling!
