You're missing the part where I said there are exception & I have & would date someone of those races. I just don't pursue people of those races. It's not racist, I don't date someone because I think they're race is superior to another or don't date a race because I have hate for them. I have friends of those races, just because I don't date them doesn't mean I am racist. Like I said I don't date them due to personal experience. Choice is not what matters most in a relationship, attraction is. If I am not attracted to someone then they become a friend, not someone I'm interested in being with. The attraction thing isn't an opinion, you can look it up. There's also more than one way to be attracted to someone, not just to their looks. I'm confused how the gender thing is any different to what you've been saying. You're telling me that if I choose to not date a race, I'm racist. So if you choose not to date a certain gender, by your definition that would make you a sexist because you're choosing to not date someone because of their gender. That's literally the same thing. Due to being r@pe or almost stabbed by these races, I don't feel comfortable dating them. I get flashbacks of those things with my husband now & he's white. You can tell me how wrong and racist I am, but that's not going to change the way I react due to the events that occurred to me. I have nothing against these racist, however I cannot move on with what happened to me. I don't let race get in the way, what I'm saying is I don't pursue relations with these races. If I find someone I like & they happen to be this race, I would date them. They are just not what I look for when looking for a partner. I don't see how that makes me racist, but than again that word gets thrown around constantly now [spoiler]we always bang bb[/spoiler]
