Does race/ethnicity matter....cause I'm having the damnedest time finding guys who digs/like Blackamerican brothers in San Diego CA....why is this the case and what has been your empicrical experience with regards to this/my issue....

thanksinadvance

Does it somehow matter to you?
 
>>>Does race/ethnicity matter....

...to who?

Me? Not really. I have preferences, of course, but I wouldn't eliminate a guy from competition (?) based on his race. I actually am partnered with a guy who I would have considered "not my type" before I met him.

...to others? Depends on the other.

Does race/ethnicity matter...

...To me? Nope.

...To many (if not most) guys? Yup.

C'est La Vie.
 
It must be the 26th day of the month. I am positive this question gets asked on the 26th.
 
To some it does, it others it doesn't. I have dated white, black, Hispanic, middle eastern, Native American and Asian guys. It's more about who I find hot.

Something that concerns me is the number of black guys who won't date another black guy or the number of Asian guys who won't date Asian guys. I can't count the number of times I've been told "I don't do Asian" from an Asian. When I ask why, they often put down Asians in some way or another. I even met some guys who won't even be friends with guys of their own race. I think everyone should be able to date whoever they are attracted to, but these situations seem a little weird to me.
 
I am only 1, but to me Race does not matter. If I find the guy easy on the eyes and he is attracted to me and sparks fly...

Culture can/may make a difference example food, religious views may be different although that can be overcome with understanding.

On a personal side I do find the 04:45 morning prayer call with loudspeakers 1 block from my hotel room an early alarm clock, :-)
 
Sure it matters... Matters in different ways depending on what sort of relationship you're looking to have.
 
At least in the US, gay culture (at least in general when compared to the larger American culture) tends to be fairly focused on white men. In many ways, non-white guys are left more on the periphery in gay culture. You just don't see as many of them around for reasons I don't completely understand.

Two of my best friends (one black, one pacific islander) don't date guys who are not white. Both claim it's physical attraction, although I know the black guy also feels most other gay black guys he meets are too thuggish (which he finds a huge turn off).

The flip side of all this though is that while there are many guys who aren't into black guys, there are many out there who are really into them. When my friend goes out, he tends to get a lot of attention from a select group of guys. It's just a matter of finding those guys and using all of your physical attributes (including but not limited to your racial background) to your advantage.
 
I don't think it matters but personally I am only attracted to white guys. I have been hit on by many hot black men and always wonder why I am not attracted to them? I am not attracted to Asian guys either.I can't tell you why cause there are plenty of hot Asian men.I work with a hot Mexican guy but not into him. I like my guys so white you can see blue veins in their arms. Sexual preference is such an odd thing. What makes us attracted to one race and not others? I have had many black friends who won't even date black men. But all the woman I know now will only date black men. Sometimes I think I am the last man on Earth who likes white guys. But I also have a strange preference for not liking un-cut dicks. No matter how hot a guy or nice if I find out he's un-cut I am over it. Why? No clue. I have tried to change what I find attractive but can't. I use to only date blonde/ blue eyed guys. No guys with dark or brown hair. I managed to kick that preference so maybe one day.......

So it matters to YOU... You as an individual like all the other 'individuals' in the world.

We have been so conditioned to say "No, race doesn't matter" but in reality it does.

Does size matter? Age? Of course they do, why not race?
 
It shouldn't matter. I'm Latino and my boyfriend is white. If it did matter to me I would of been having a boyfriend who is Latino.
 
I think most of us have preconceived notions of the type of person we're attracted to. Having said that I think it comes down to chemistry and we often fall in love with the complete opposite of what we thought we would

Case in point: Someone I know said he wouldn't go out with anyone who wasn't well built, educated and working in a white collar professional job. Well, he fell in love with a skinny guy who works in a bakery. They've been together about twelve years now
 
For me, no. I would date anyone. I confess though. I'd love to find a latino because it is something about them. I wish I could explain it but simply cant. I'm sitting here turning the television between Javier Vazquez and Adrian Gonzalez after watching some pics of Shemar Moore and earlier watching the 2-6 Florida Marlins line up of Dan Uggla, Jeremy Hermeda, Josh Wittingham, Cody Ross and Matt Treanor. I think I'm the 31 flavors of the male species....If a guy turns me on, he turns me on -- race is simply not important...Tonight -- Troy Polamalu of Pittsburgh....Enough said!

I couldn't agree with you more, Wilehart. I would most likely date outside my race, because I believe in seeing the person for who they are, not what color there skin is. Even when it comes to friends, i have friends who aren't African American, and its never been an issue. I guess i was raised to be open minded.

I'm sorry, but that IS weird. A black guy not wanting to hang out with his kind because they ARE his kind? That's odd. But this world is so damn big, I guess it's bound to happen.

And Lex pretty much hit it RIGHT on the nail for me - I have my preference, which is white guys - but I'm pretty much open to my first boyfriend being of any race. As long as he treats me nice enough.

I'd prefer it that he'd be outgoing because, I almost have no outgoing bones in my body. And I think it's true when they say that opposites attract.

I am shy and I would like an outgoing guy who isn't afraid to speak up, speak his mind, and willing to show me new things.

Sorry, I'll stop rambling now! =D

Good question, btw.
 
Not for me...Huntneo you must have gotten a cad on that PM..Sorry - youre too good for that!
 
Once upon a time ago I went through phases. At first I was only attracted to latino guys, then only to black guys, then only to white guys, etc. I think I just grew out of it and realized life is too short for me to always only use one certain type of crayon from the box, I don't have a preference anymore...hopefully this isn't another phase...
 
jfg2007, i'm not sure if this thread is about classic racism... It's not about one race vs another rather does one's race/color matter in eye appeal or attraction.

Example: If a white dude does not want to date a white guy is he a racist?
 
Gosh hunteo, I love you! I couldn't have said it better myself. I, too am an african american male. I've come to realize that people have their own preferences (just as I do) and so there is no need for me to be pissed at their decision.

If they don't like you for you, then they aren't worth it :-)

Great advice, hunteo!
