Who are you attracted to?

Would love to say otherwise but physically speaking I am a white female who is totally attracted to the "dark and handsome" white male. That's speaking strictly from pictures, actors, etc. When I meet a person and get to know them, I don't really care. But there's not a lot of ethnic diversity where I am from (some, not a lot) so maybe it's hard to say. Most people I know stuck with their own race, and yeah, I tend to think that's more of a natural thing than a choice, but it's always hard to tell what's going on in the deeper levels, sub-conscience influences, etc.

I think the reason why people tend to choose their own race as they share the similar culture, similar brought up and similar beliefs. I thought I could accept my partner of a different race until I ended my relationship with a white man of Italian origin (I'm a Chinese). We were attracted to each other but we couldn't sustain the relationship because of our different brought up and culture. Therefore to be on safe side, I will choose a Chinese man now and not other races.

In my case, not ever likely. I'm Asian and I've never EVER dated nor found other Asian men attractive. There's something about the way they look that doesn't appeal to me. I know this sweet man who is trying to set me up with an Asian man from my own country...but...no thank you. I find the bodies of black men to be very attractive, but nothing I'd want to date. The man for me is a tall white man with dark brown hair, hazel green eyes and from America through and through. That...is what I'm happy with. *Pleiades

I do not mind the race, color, ethnic backgrounds but I do hope they have EQ (emotional quotient) and the BRAINS. Please cut the crap of being the boy next door type. It is all just too dreamy. I want someone to talk to INTELLIGENTLY. Recently I seem to fall for the wrong type of men. I do not know why but they get into my nerves. They cut down my guard and just recently hurt me. How? STUPID LITTLE MEN DO NOT KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF SELF-EFFICIENT WOMEN.

I guess this all depends on the races that are available in a region. Obviously, who would you clearly see the most in South Africa, China, India, Norway, Argentina? Here in Canada and the USA the races are more varied. I see nothing wrong with dating or marrying someone from a different race, it's love. However, I do see that for many it can be very complicated and it is easier to only date within your own race. That's too bad, but i guess that's how cultures have developed and changing what some belief would be harder than moving a mountain. Too bad because love should have no borders.

I don't think it's the COLOR so much that attracts people so much as the similar backgrounds and upbringings most people find in their own races. For example, I might be more attracted to rocker, punk, bad boys because that's how I was raised. I grew up listening to rock music and watching scary movies, etc.... I'm not saying that definitely determines it, but it does help. People seem to gravitate to those they can relate to.

Am hot cause am black, am from africa the part you hate most. My concepts my own. My character my own. My stupidity and color my own. Am black and cocky please get used to me. You already know what am think, i 'll detest any white that even look at me with disrespect. Am proud to be black and a niqga, like they call us.

Black and white - that is all the interplay of the preoccupied min of yours. You know white are white and blacks are blacks and therefore this hesitation in your mind. Just shed away this thought from your mind and you will be all liberal to all color.

I don't know where you're from or the area, but around here no such thing exists. People date whoever they're attracted to regardless of their race and most people around here actually date people of other races. Race is really not very important in this area, I guess. Personally, my husband is white and I'm black. But I grew up in a white culture. So why would I date a black guy if I didn't really have much in common with them if they grew up in a different way? It's more about personality than race. I'm attracted to people that are like me--not racially, of course. I think that separations based on race are stupid. Skin color and such should not be what defines who you like. Sure, culture might be important in a relationship, but different races can have the same cultures. I'm attracted to people who have the same morals and beliefs and such as I do, who want the same thing out of life that I want, and that's what I found in my husband, not some white person.

Hello emcktrevor this is checkmail and do get attracted towards the nature in first, and then to the peoples.I am really very much attracted to nature as it just pleases my mind with its blossoms and its quality.And talking about peoples well i give prefernce to those who are really hardworking and smart in nature.Thats also called as super humans like things and also the peoples who can make some difference by themselves.

myself am a perfectly cooked indian!!! attraction for me dosent happen by colour... for me attraction is like a feeling which just happens n u feel 2 watch them more.u cant even take eyes of them.can i tell u smetin even white ppl r not so gud looking bcoz they hve only whiteness 2 show dats it

I think that color is the last thing on my mind. Knowing their is 300 different races of white in our galaxy just makes it very ridiculous to judge the colors of skin our planet has inherited. I believe that who that person is should matter. But who doesn't think that. Though it's easier said then done. many woman and men look for a partner with a great attitude and a happy person. But you never really see them with that sort of person. It's quite sad. They are in fear mode. Fear they will never find another. But I think if you are having second thoughts you should end the relationship
