I wouldn't say racist. To me it's the same thing as not finding blonde hair attractive. Or not liking guys with beards. It's about what you like the look of. It would be like hating me because I don't like yellow cars What's wrong about yellow cars? You car racist! Related Question:Why don't dark skinned girls of different races get credit for their looks? Uhm, Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell, Halle Berry, Traci Bingham, Robin Givens?

according to AVENUE Q.. we're all a little bit racist sometimes...lol..sorry that made me laugh but in all seriousness..I am not racist or prejudiced because if i was I would be following the footsteps of a society of ignorant people( not anyone here on the boards) and i just don't roll that way.. i was taught growing up to appreciate everyone no matter race creed or sexuality and i have had friends who are black, white, hispanic, gay and straight....so its useless to be racist.. "If we say we are without sin, we decieve ourselves and the truth is not in us." The General Confession of Western ChristianityIn addition to the ineffable soul, a human being is sum of their nature and their upbringing. Look, the ancestors of humanity survived by having an instinctual terror of anything different from themselves. That includes other races in that definition. The way the human mind operates is also to group things and make general observations about those groups. If one spider is bad, then all spiders are bad, and if one snake is bad, then all snakes are bad. You do not meant to say that you are not racist, you mean to say, your instinctual xenophobia is reduced due to repeated postive contact. You are also the product of your environment and your peer group. You were raised in a society where racial strife is minimal. If your were a white living in reconstruction south watching blacks collaborate with the Yankee occupation, you would hate blacks. If you were a black person watching your father get lynched, you would hate white people. Do not be so proud, for you can not say how long you would stay in your state of grace, given the right pressure. That was the whole moral of The Dark Knight, after all.

You are both right. I think Jay was just saying that she is who she is because of her life experience, which may or may not involve cannibalism.

I know that Noid, and what I'm saying is that has nothing to do with who you are inherently. What's the point in bringing up a bunch of hypthetical situations that in no way, shape, or form say who Millie really is?
Fact is there isn't one racist bone in my body. PERIOD. Yes, I claim to be without sin in that regard because I KNOW it's true. If I was raised in some other time in some other situation could that be different? It could be. But why even speculate becuase the fact is I WASN'T raised in that time or situation.

What does that make me?

I don't think it was meant to suggest anything negative about Millie, I think it was more of an observation about how experiences shape our perceptions. But I've been wrong before.

Edit:Kitty, you're missing out there are some cute ass Asians running around. My cousin had the best sex in her life with an Asian man. Your cousin must've had some pretty "small" expectations, then. Har har har har! ...Yeah I'll show myself out. On Topic: No it doesn't make you racist at all. A racist would be totally disgusted at the thought of dating someone of a different race.

I only like people who are mixed-race. What does that make me? Indecisive? What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?

I've only been attracted to a couple of black girls. It was more of a question of personality. Not a big deal with me, really.
On a side note, I've always thought the term "homophobia" was misused. Strictly speaking, it should mean, "fear of that which is the same".
