I don't see any sites like that for white people, while I see some for any other race. What do you think of this? Is it racist? Is it warranted? What?

I don't think there's actually anything wrong with it. I also assume that the site does not actually prohibit white people from participating in it's services. If not then that breaks several different laws and there is something wrong with it.

Try looking at it like this. There are not even half as many black people in America as there are white people. Only about 10% of the UK, label themselves as being black. So maybe it's a good idea to have a place where it's easier to find people with similar physical traits to your own? Especially when there aren't many of your kind around.

As long as it's actually stating white people aren't allowed to use it then there's nothing legally wrong.

You made it sound like a spam ad, lol.

I don't find it racist at all simply because there's nothing actually stopping white people from making one. If for some it was made Illegal for white people to make a site like that then I'd call it racist.

If you mean the actual sites themselves then I also don't find it racist, I haven't been to that site or any like it but unless they site is specifically making insults about other races then I don't see how it's racist at all.

I Agree with Pelador :o_O:
White people don't need an equivalent site considering they are the majority by a significant margin. I think it's fine and probably not racist, i'm sure white people can sign up but the target population is Blacks.

I don't see that obvious reason (other than the fact that it doesn't look good in the title)

I was more just shocked because you'd never see an ad for a site like this in TV, or a site like this for white people in general. It would be called racist right from the start.

Uhhh.. this comes back to the whole white privilege thing I've been talking about in the other topic regarding the use of the n-word by white people.

The whole world is a white dating site. ok, that's exaggerating it.
but even so, what is stopping you from joining that site? If they actually prohibited you from joining, yes, that would be racist. but they don't.

And why don't you go do a search for an all white or all asian or all mexican dating site. Cause I did a quick search and found all three.
I don't see why this is such a big deal

It's all a load of bull-crap anyway, people are much better off joining a common interest/recreational club rather than being under the illusion you're going to find a perfect partner though some themed dating site. Race really does not matter, but if some people only feel comfortable around 'their own kind' then whatever, I can only pity their choice.

Can't say I'd go for this because I don't think ethnicity should be a determining factor in who you couple with, but I understand why people join these sites. It's much easier to find someone who understands and respects your culture through ethnically-themed dating sites. Personally I believe any person of any ethnicity or with a family with any religious affiliation can be good but others have been pushed into a corner due to paranoia basically, and end up thinking that they can only live comfortably with people of a similar ethnic background to theirs.

Ive always asked this question myself, and even though the inherent idea SHOULDNT be racist? doesnt mean it isnt. But period, there ARE blacks who prefer their own kind, not any different than anyone else who does the same thing.

i find it annoying personally, racist blacks are always the first to roll their eyes because they see me with my daughters mom. But on the flip side anyone who is black, has always known that there is a "conservative" side to the black community also.

Do racists use these racially motivated sites? i guess they're the ones keeping em alive.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

I don't see a problem with it it's fine.


However obviously a white dating site would be RACIST searching up there's a white dating site, but it's just that name it's not only for white people.
That's where it bugs me if white people did it then everyone would make a fuss.

Don't see the problem with that just because you don't find black people attractive doesn't make you a racist, maybe you just don't want to have to reject people for that because it's not very nice but you can't change your preferences like that.

Those dating are sites are for people WITH a specific preference, doesnt make you racist.

A lot more people have actual "types" or archetypes, that they are attracted to, most involve certain features.

Very few people are actually equal opportunity, if for most people that do date outside their race? its usually only just that one other kind also.

Not that i speak for people, but people speak for themselves with their actions.

I like blondes, even reds, but ive always preferred someone with darker features, brown eyes, tan skin, that actually covers alot of girls, but not all.

Most times between a pretty blonde or brunette ill choose the brunette.

I like what i like. But im not racially motivated by it. Backgrounds only important if i like her.
