Racism Survey.... Would you:

In before the lock!

Yikes people looking for fights again. Don't post divisive topics.

Randomtai is the one seeking out a fight for some odd reason.

It's called a debate. Not everyone agrees with everything all the time. Sorry to break it to you.

My husband is white. I...am not white.

/shrug

Honestly there is nothing wrong with preferences.. It doesn't make you a racist. I've been with certain girls of X ethnicity and found I didn't mesh well.

Please point out where the above poster actually said that.

Now you are putting words into people's mouths

Again. Where did they say they are all the same? They said they didn't mesh well. You have no idea the reasons behind the comment.

Right. If you see it one way, that's your prerogative. I read it differently.

Honestly there is nothing wrong with preferences.. It doesn't make you a racist. I've been with certain girls of X ethnicity and found I didn't mesh well. Being attracted to someone with big boobs doesn't make you a bad person, so why does being attracted to Y race make you a racist? Being attracted to the opposite sex doesn't mean that you hate homosexuals. You can't compare apples and oranges.

I agree with this.

You're calling everyone who doesn't want to marry another race prejudiced. You're poking the fire and not coming back with anything useful except ridiculous spewage.

That is not a debate.

Where did I say that to you? I was referring to a previous poster and you decided to butt in and are now putting words in my mouth. :laugh: Hilarious.

1) Date/Marry someone of a different colour?
2) Adopt a child of a different colour?
3) Allow your child to date/marry someone of a different colour?
4) Accept a vital organ transplant/allow a family member to do so if that organ belonged to someone of a different colour?

I ask these questions, because they came up in a conversation with my (now-ex) BF, and I was completely SHOCKED at his answers.

For me: it's a "yes" to all 4. I really don't care if you're black, white, red, yellow, or blue. Unless you're blue because you're choking. Then I'd probably help you.

Yes to all above and what is the difference they are people too!!!!

If you can't see where, by saying he's dated X girls and found he didn't mesh well with those girls it means he wouldn't date another Xgirl, he implying that all Xgirls are the same/must share the traits that made him not mesh with the ones he dated, that I'm interested in what it is you feel is actually being said.

yes to all because i'm not a bigoted piece of ****e

EXACTLY!!!! That was ALL I meant. :flowerforyou:

Some of ya'll make me laugh. Getting all butt hurt just because someone does not have the same opinions as you. Really?! This is fudging 2013 not 1956.

YES to all of em.

1) Yes, in fact I'm most often attracted to men of different ethnicities
2) Yes, although I haven't thought specifically from where as of now, but have thought of adopting (in the way future)
3) YES
4) Yes

lol Oh boy.

Ok...definitions for prejudice clearly have been overlooked. lol My head hurts.

*bounces out*

1) Date/Marry someone of a different colour? No, but not out of racism.

2) Adopt a child of a different colour? I don't think I would ever adopt a child period unless it was someone I knew and they had a tragic event. In that event, they could be white, black, tan or pink with polka dots.
.
3) Allow your child to date/marry someone of a different colour? Not my choice, It's hers.

4) Accept a vital organ transplant/allow a family member to do so if that organ belonged to someone of a different colour? Yeah, last time I checked it all worked the same...
