Does skin color matter?

[football3114]

I like darker skin color and im not racist I am open to dating anybody of any race.Darker skin is just my preference. Do any other guys out there care about skin color?

[NeuroTiger]

I certainly prefer personality first but sometimes skin colour can come into play.
I've to confess. But my major preference is for personality.

[ksdnfkfr]

Skin color doesn't matter to me. I will elaborate and say that I have found many different types of skin colored people attractive. Whether it's pale white like mine, or golden tan, or naturally brown or black. An attractive person is just that to me. Probably a bad example, but it's kind of the same as cars and motorcycle I find really good looking painted different colors.

[CharlieHorse]

Obviously I respect everyone as equal, regardless of skin color, but I will admit that I find pale skin to be really attractive. How it "matters" depends on context.

[DiamondsGirl]

I don't think preferring a certain skin color is racist. The word "racist" is so overused in our society today I feel like you could be hanged for saying "that Asian guy over there". Unless you are discriminating against someone due to their racial background, you are NOT racist. ((sorry end of rant))

I know someone who is really into guys with darker skin. She's not racist, but if the guy doesn't have dark skin she considers them ugly. Me myself I prefer lighter to white skin, but it's not like if my future Mr. Right has dark skin I'm gonna jump off a building. It's just that I find guys with lighter-colored skin more attractive.

[man with freaky plan]

I am personally much more attracted to white blonds, I think this is due to growing up around mostly white people.

If it is purely a physical attraction then it is not racist, however if you are using their skin colour to derive someone's personal traits, then obviously that is. A good example would be that some people are more attracted to black people because the consider them more dominating and in charge, I have met people who are like this, and it is racist, as it is attributing personal traits to skin colour.

[NudistKid]

It doesn't matter to me it's the personality I think that matters the most to me

[Synyster Shadows]

Doesn't matter but I prefer white girls

[Tarannosaurus]

Skin colour doesn't matter to me at all. I sometimes see a person where I really like their skin tone but I haven't noticed any preference towards a particular colour. And it's only a small thing, it's like "oh her skin has a lovely tone".

[Chrisscotland]

I don't think it would matter to me, if you get on with someone and there is an attraction there that's the main thing.

[ninja789]

Doesnt matter really
Personality for the win :P

[Blood]

Skin color honestly doesn't matter to me at all. I've dated a white guy, a black guy, and a mixed guy and they were each attractive in their own ways.

It's not racist to have a preference when it comes to skin color. However it is racist when you say that you won't date a certain race of people because of their skin color. I was casually talking to a guy about dating, and he says "I'll never date a black chick. I can't stand black people. I just look at them and I want to hurt them." About an hour after that he asked me out. I was like, "I have black cousins that I'm really close to, you don't want to date me." His response? "Well you don't look anything like them so it doesn't really matter. 7pm good?"


Such a douchebag oh my god.

[Meganium]

My crushes/loves who I sought for their personality have coincidentally all been white, and I'm black as the night sky.

[Waleedbt]

Not being racist, but im not attracted to pale white, i like some tone.
But i wouldnt mind for the "one"

[Plane And Simple]

I don't care honestly. It's something I don't even thought I could take into account :P

[Dalcourt]

I don't have any preferences, personality is what matters to me. Having certain preferences is not necessarily racist, it's more a matter of taste in my opinion.

[Cece14]

I perfer white or tan, i would never date a black person, or asian or mexican.... just my preferance....

[phuckphace]

nobody has to justify their preference(s) with the "I'm not racist" bit. the types you find attractive or unattractive has nothing to do with racism.

anyway, I find white people the most attractive, generally speaking.

[Kurgg2]

I prefer to boys have white or tanned skin.

[plebble]

I don't care about skin colour, but my "type" (ethnic race) is Asian :P
The Chinese/Korean/Japanese type of Asian.

[Elysium]

I'm a girl, but I tend to find darker skin colors more attractive than lighter ones (African American, Indian, etc.). That's not always true, though. I've definitely met some attractive white/Asian/etc. people.

[Body odah Man]

I WANT to go for personality, but I seem to dig hispanics

[backjruton]

EDIT: I got carried away a little again as you can probably see, and most of this is more about relationships than normal attraction, I do experience the attraction but for me relationships and attraction are 2 EXTREMELY different things. (But I still don't go past a certain point... :eek:)

For someone that has been told once or twice in the past that they should just take whatever they can get when it comes to them I can be incredibly picky when it comes to this kind of thing. My best friend is a girl I'm extremely close to and a lot like, but I'd rather have a boyfriend - sexuality for both of us is the only reason we're always going to stay as friends - and people keep asking if we're in a relationship because we spend so much time in college together... but as for outside contact, there isn't any, because both of us have insecurity issues or something and feel awkward with everything because it seems bad things have happened to us both while talking privately online.

BUT as for skin colour; I've only ever been with white people in my yeargroups - primary school, high school and now college - but I think that's partly down to living in a smaller city that's kinda out of the way but funnily enough one of the only art colleges in the UK from what I've heard although I think it might have been blind college I heard that about as there's one of them here too. Because of this, I can't imagine myself getting along with someone of a different colour because I haven't been in that situation for all of the time I've had in school, it's something I wouldn't really be used to and if you'd known me for a while (which no one does as I've only been signed up for 2 months and I'm only just now learning how to explain more that goes through my head) you would know I'm not good with new situations and it can have all kind of messes with my pretty little head. If they were nice to me, I would be nice to them, all there is too it - and if they understood some more about me too because not a lot of people do.

I always better interacted in school with guys - but that's because all of the girls there sucked except for 4 or 5 of them - but I get on better in college because the people there are more like me. But that's just friendship, as for sexuality I am 95% towards wanting a boyfriend so I would definitely want to be with a guy. There's a lot of different factors with me - hair would be short and light brown, ginger, blonde or black as long as it didn't coincide with the skin colour like mine seems to for some reason sometimes when I look in the mirror and I have the hots for blue and green eyes more than any other colour too.

Skincolour isn't a very big factor in what I would choose, but I do have problems with hair that's longer than a certain length and I prefer the kinda pale look or up to a certain level of tanned. I'm too picky sometimes, I could be friends with anyone if they were the friendly type and understood a lot of my problems as not a lot of people do but as for relationships I do have my limits. But like I said, I've mostly only been with white people in my education. so it's something new I haven't really experienced yet and don't yet know how I would properly feel. And that's all there really is to it :kitty:

[Croconaw]

I don't really find dark skinned people attractive. :(

[bobbi]

I don't discriminate Im not attracted to someone because of their skin color or ethnicity I am mainly concerned with their personality.

[PinkFloyd]

Skin color does not change anything for me at least. I know that human nature is to associate with people that have the same traits as you, but I don;t think that really applies to me..

[nklarke]

I prefer white colour.

[highschool]

yeah, like everyone has said, there's nothing wrong with a preference. I'm usually into white guys, but if i happen to meet an awesome black or Asian dude, i'm not gonna abandon that opportunity.

[Babiole]

I'm open to dating anyone, though I find myself most attracted to black girls. It contrasts with my pale skin. My dad's youngest brother is married to a woman from the Ivory Coast. She's as black as ebony and he's pale with a full head of blond hair. He even lived with her in her home country for years.

[Ffdp16]

I prefer girls who are mixed black/white like myself usually the lighter skinned ones especially. I think it's usual to prefer one's own race.

[PatrickV]

not racist but i prefer white and tanned. unless its beyonce lol

[dame]

i'm open to any skin color, it really doesn't matter to me. it's okay to have a preference, though. :-)

[Poison_Ivy]

I don't think the color of the skin makes a difference, personality is what matters but there is nothinv wrong if you like one or another, it's just a personal preference

[Sminkelaks]

I don't give a rat's ass about skin color.

[hithere14]

i'm half white half black and in order i would say: mixed race, white, then black. sexually speaking

[Melodic]

As long as they have the personality I prefer, I don't care.
