Is it racist for a black woman to NOT be attracted to white men?

Mammograms are free.

Cade sure does like making female alts.

The title explains itself. We all know how white men feel since all of them are evil,& racist

Oh somehow I missed the part where you are a racist shitstain.

Bye bye.

Yes, there are white men who are racist

What about pelvic exams?

You didn't say wrong but you did say racist. I just don't think it belongs in that context.

Yeah, some people have racist overlays in an intellectual sense to their inherent brain-borne preferences.

But "not being attracted" to a certain group doesn't rise to the level of racism. Otherwise I could say straight girl that I'm racist against white girls.

I said it's racist because it's racist. It's making a judgement using race as a determining factor, what else would call it? Ancestorial Origin Preference?

No, you being a straight girl doesn't make you racist against white girls. The operative word here is that you're straight. Race presumably doesn't enter into the equation. You are however Sexist. There is nothing wrong with that, the majority of people are sexist when it comes to who they romantically involve themselves with. It's nothing you did wrong it's just a fact.

Do you remember the moment when you first felt attraction or repulsion and do you remember it being your brain acting first...or other things acting first or failing to act and the brain following?

I don't see why that makes a difference. If you're afraid of spiders you're an arachnaphobe. It doesn't matter if you're afraid because a poisonous spider nearly killed you when you were a child or if you're one of the many people who just got wired wrong it doesn't change the end result one bit.

Shut up cunt maggot. Take your bullshit somewhere else you ugly ass white bird shit stain

No it does not make black women racist. It makes black women cautious with good judgement. White men on the other hand are all racist,& they refuse to date black women based on their reasons alone,because they are racist, no one bats an eye

No, it makes it racist bullshit.. you're assuming all white men are racist

you wont date a white man because you assume a stance about them

this is what makes you racist

Yeah, we're way out in the woods here. I don't want to fuck a spider.

Anyway, my point to clarify:

Racism is a belief system. It is also part of our brain, that part that determines "us" and "them" and has been tuned over millennia of tribal affiliation. Throughout history people went way out of their way to distinguish themselves as "us" or "them" so that you knew the right people to kill. And they would kill you.

The fact that someone not of your tribe will no longer kill you on sight hasn't made it that much easier, because of course they could still rob you blind, as could any member of your supposed "tribe" because brains aren't that smart in the end.

I don't think it takes much to make a brain racist and a lot of it can happen long before cognitive thought arises. And flatly...it never arises in some people.

So for me...there's a brain function that was of use before civilization or language to keep people alive.

We still have that brain function, and now we have civilization and language.

I think the brain gets first dibs and civilization or language might change that later.

this is what makes you racist

Black women cannot be racist, but okay. White men are racist, and that's that

I didn't say they were wrong in fact I said it was perfectly natural. While I think people are born gay or straight that doesn't change the fact that they are cutting off an entire gender from romantic relations.

I don't think the majority of people actually choose their various predjudices. Certainly not any more than they choose their religion and the vast majority of children are the same religion as their parents. It's largely being indoctrinated into a certain society. We could always talk about Mexico, India or Japan (or too a different degree America) where being light skinned is part of the standard of beauty. I don't think it's conscious hatred on anybody's part. It's just how we're trained.

I was totally gonna say that whole, "It's as racist as strait/gay people are sexist" thing. The difference is, I mean it. Not dating someone because of their race/gender/anything outside of their immedient control is a dick move.

Do you remember the moment when you first felt attraction or repulsion and do you remember it being your brain acting first...or other things acting first or failing to act and the brain following?

Your brain, Reci. Your brain reacts first. The amygdala regulates the feelings of love and euphoria, and the basil ganglia tells your dick to rise. That's how biology works, as you learned in fucking grade school. That's why attraction varies so much, because your prejudices are taken into account.

such a load of bullshit... my fiance's mother hated me for years solely because I am white


you're a racist trying to justify being a racist

I've heard this position before and I just want to clarify it. If you're saying what I think you're saying, and if I'm not correct me.

Racism can only come from the group that is power, by its definition. Therefore, while non-white people can be prejusticed, they cannot be racist, because they aren't in a position to hurt anyone else's status based on race.

I've never believed that, just because I've never had reason to, as their are plenty of people of color in positions of power, but it is a common stance and I can respect it.

 

[Recidiva]

Oh well, I tried to have a decent conversation.

Foiled by the dumb. Again. I'll get you next time, dumb! *shakes impotent internet fist*

This might have some credence if you were a black woman, then at least you could speak for at least one black woman.

As it is, you are just one more disgruntled white man who thinks he can make someone else look stupid by pretending to be them.

Fun Fact: I was singing this song making dinner yesterday, and when I got done with the "The Jews have all the money and the white's have all the power" part Bri goes, "That sounds like a pow-wow when you sing it. It doesn't sound Asian."

And I was like, "THAT'S RACIST!"

Though my sweet & sour sauce I tried to make did suck.

You are the grumpiest old white man sounding black woman, ever. You're not fooling anyone.

This thread celebrates the black women who turned you down.
