Description
There's a huge difference between hating someone for a certain trait (i.e. skin color, gender, etc) and not being interested in dating someone with a certain trait.• Some people have a thing for blonde hair, or brunettes, or black hair. And some are not interested in dating red-heads.
• Some people have a thing for heavier people...and some don't.
• Some people have a thing for dating someone of a different culture/ethnicity/race (skin color)...And some don't.
• Some people have a thing for transgender/non-binary people...and some don't.
• Some people have a thing for cis-gender people...and some don't.
• Some people have a thing for disabled or disordered people...and some don't.
Those are preferences, not prejudices.
A prejudice would be not dating someone because they actually hate that person for a certain physical trait. (i.e. Not dating black people because you simply hate black people.) However, not having an interest in dating someone with a certain trait is nowhere near the same as hating that person or anyone else.
Not dating someone who's disabled, black, trans, female, blonde, etc...are simply preferences. They don't hate you for having those traits, or it's not that you're ugly to them. They're just not interested in dating you and/or not physically attracted to you.
Just because someone does not find a certain trait appealing does NOT mean they hate you for that trait. I find light skin more appealing for relationships, I have no idea why. But that doesn't mean I hate black people. To be completely honest, I don't see race. You hear that a lot from the stereotypical dickheads, but I'm serious. Everyone's human, that's the only trait that matters to me. But when it comes to dating, I'm more interested in light-skinned potential mates. Of course, I'm also asexual, so I'm never interested in dating someone I just met anyway. But just because I'm dating a white guy doesn't mean I hate non-white people. I still like you as friends or acquaintances, and I don't think you're inferior. I just don't find you romantically appealing. It's called "sexual selection" or "mate choice," which is innate in almost ALL organisms...Not just humans. For example: male peacocks strut their stuff via showing off their feathers. A female peacock will then decide who she finds the most colorful of the males. Same goes for frogs; females choose which frog has the deepest croak and the best territory to mate with them. Certain traits are appealing to some and others aren't.
Same thing happens with human-courting; both men and women seek others with the most appealing set of traits to them. Your sexuality is not a choice, but finding appealing traits in other people is kinda by choice...and kinda not by choice too, mostly because it's part of your sexuality. This is why looking for a certain set of traits in a potential soul mate are considered preferences, or "turn-ons."
I'm mostly interested in:
• males
• average/skinny body type
• average maintenance/low maintenance (can't be completely dependent on me)
• average/a bit tall in height (not too tall)
• dark-haired (brown, dark brown, black)
• light skinned (first choice would be Caucasian, but I think I wouldn't mind dating Asians)
• sharp wit (nerdy, bookish, scientific/mathematical/philosophical thinking, artistic/creative)
• funny/devious
• shares same interests (gaming, story-development, animation, art, fiction, camping, and mental enrichment shows)
In other words:
A dark-haired white guy around my age who likes gaming, animation, some outdoors stuff, and Comic Cons, likes art galleries/art festivals, enjoys reading/writing (or does a bit of creative writing), as well as likes watching ScyFy/Discovery/History channels (Mythbusters, Cosmos, Ancient Aliens, etc) for both amusement and mental enrichment, and is good at math (because I'm terrible at it and I'm still don't understand taxes). Making me laugh is usually a given; everyone wants a mate that can make them laugh. Disorders? Depending on the severity and if you're being treated for them, I can handle those...Especially if you happen to share a few of mine. It's an absolute pain in the ass to deal with when it comes to concentration, sticking to a daily routine, and completing tasks, but it would definitely make me feel better if my mate had it too or something similar. Both of us being in the same defective boat would be very comforting/encouraging, as we can confide in each other with any mental issues.
Everyone is equal in my eyes, regardless of skin color. The only race that matters is the human race. But just because I'm dating a white guy doesn't mean I'm obligated to date the opposite. Nobody is fucking entitled to date anybody. If you think otherwise, you're a piece of shit and can fuck right off.
I have nothing against you. You're beautiful in your own way, but I'm just not interested in dating you. Sorry. But I wish you luck finding someone else, okay? c:
