[b]Do you date outside your race? If so how often?[/b] I've never dated my exact racial mix, so basically exculsively yes. [b]How do you view racial prefrences as whole? (in society)[/b] I think some are based on just asthetics (skin tones or features) but clearly some are based in preconceptions or past experiences. [b]Do you find yourself attracted or not attracted to certain race or races?[/b] Broadly I seem to be more drawn to women from the asian continent, and I mean the entire asian continent so that includes india, pakistan, indonesia, malaysia etc. But thats not a strong preference I can find myself attracted to any race really. [b]Can you describe why you might have these prefrences/dislikes?[/b] In my immediate area, asians seem to have slightly stricter families and upbringings which makes them less likely to be avid party/drinking/casual drugs types which I cant stand. There are many exceptions and the stereotype is reversed in different parts of my country. But I've found when looking for a girl who would rather have a cup of coffee and a conversation as apposed to a night out on the weekend, they have slight majority asian. [b]Do you think your mind has changed about any of this from the past or is subject to change in the future?[/b] Probably not, I dont think I'll stop finding certain races attractive or suddenly find one race my sole focus. But maybe I might look at my dating history in 10 years and see a slight demographic majority change. Why that is? I wont know until it happens, if it happens at all.
