interesting. if someone asked me abt this and made me make a choice, i'd prob say i like asian men (asian here meaning i guess generally subcontinental rather than oriental) - partly because yes i am jealous as all hell of those skintones and it makes me want to touch that skin, but also i'm sure there are cultural associations... i dunno if it's got anything to do with exoticism, tbh i think it doesn't, but the music and food and smells and language-sounds and literature from that part of the world really do it for me. (i went to mongolia for like 24 hours and omg the mongolian men were the most beautiful i've ever seen, they all had eyes like owls, it was 10 years ago and still v vivid in my mind.) having said that i've found myself attracted to people of every race at different points. i really think it's more about the individual than the type...

i have a friend who only likes men with blue eyes and refuses to even consider any who don't. that seems like mentalism to me.

May I take this opportunity to reassure the women of the world that there are no racial types I am repulsed by - I'm an equal opportunity lecher

Are you saying I remind you of George Galloway?

...and if one decides that it's unacceptable and racist, what to do about it? "You're a bad bad racist boy for only liking Asian women, now go out and have sex with a black girl! Pronto!"??
