How is this racism??

Question

I don't hate any race in fact I love every race. I just happen to like certain types. Noone likes dumb or mean people. I happen to like light skinned black people, asians, and whites. How is racist that I choose to like good people?

Answer 1

Of course that’s racist. Don’t play us small by asking a stupid question.  

“I happen to like light skinned black people” “How is that racist to like good people”

You’re clearly saying that dark skinned black people are not good people.

If that needs to be explained any more to you  ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚€Â“ don’t bother with it - just kill yourself now and it won’t matter

Answer 2

You just have to be really careful about what you say sometimes. I am in no way racist. I am white and my husband is black. We have had a few fights in the past because of things I said. I once said that I loved chinese food, but I though it was weird that they eat cats and dogs in china. He said it was a racist stereotype. Maybe I just have to keep my mouth shut sometimes, cause I never mean to hurt anybody. I do know how you feel though. But I think it is just better to keep your preference to yourself. It's like a blonde being insulted when a guy doesn't wanna date her because he prefers brunettes I guess.  

Answer 3

I don't think it is racist to prefer a certain type of ethnic group.  (just don't hate any)  It just depends on the way you say it.  Think of it as a complement to people with that type of skin.

Answer 4

You are a rasist i'm a kinda dark skinned black guy and i'm a 4.0 GPA student and i can tell me and you would not get a long at all becuase your a rasist ****.

Answer 5

uhhhhm.... =/

maybe someone might think ur racist because u seem to like ppl with lighter toned skin better. but what u said sounded kinda stupid...u said "i like light skinned black ppl, asians, and whites. so what if I like good ppl?" u kinda made it sound as if ur skin isn't that color then ur not a good person =/

all races are unique ^-^

Answer 6

Well, it's sort of racial preference, isn't it - not necessarily deliberate cruelty to those not in your favourite races, but still some kind of favouritism which some may consider "racist".

Answer 7

Who put the racism category on you?  Some jealous person?  I'm swedish and Italian, I and I think the word should be Prefer strong athletic italian men.  I'm sorry but I'm not "attracted " to blonder men.  so I'm a racist against blond men?  I'm blond?  Don't sweat the small stuff!  

Answer 8

That's not racism, who you like is your personal preference.  As long as you don't think people of other races are inherently inferior to your preferred ones, you're not racist.

Answer 9

Do you seriously think all, "light skinned black people, asians, and whites" are good people? If so, you're going to be gravely disappointed in life. And if you think people of other persuasions are all bad, you'll be missing out on some potential friendships.

Answer 10

Light-skinned black people are not a race ... that is a description of skin color within a race. So are you saying that only blacks, asians and whites are the only races that are good, not dumb or mean? I think being dumb or mean has nothing to do with your race. There are plenty of dumb and mean blacks, whites and asians. Your opinion is not only racist but ignorant. One can compile a long list of mean people from all races.  

Answer 11

like who you want to like ...u don't need to announce it to the world ...the ones u left out feel that u are racist for not including in your list ......so just shut up and like who u want on skin color alone ....very shallow  

Answer 12

If someone has labeled you as racist, it maybe because you tend to categorize only certain races as "good" people?

Also, you say you like "light skinned black people". What's wrong with dark-skinned black people?

Answer 13

Its not racist at all ..it would have been racist if u said u don't like or won't date a certian color but u said u would date .. Complicated ...but its not racist at all.. I love itallians and puerto ricans!!! ...see what's so racist about that?  

Answer 14

Its not racist that you choose to like good people but the fact that you're implying that only those color of people are good poeple is what makes it racist. Actions determine whether a person is good or bad not their skin color. At least that is the way I see what your writing. Hope I helped

Answer 15

becasue you are picking a group out by name. it is very racist. it isnt horribly mean, it is just being racist. you shouldnt say stuff like that in front of people. as soon as you specify somebody by where they come from, it is racism.,

Answer 16

well its not just who ever told u that its not true if they are hot, they are hot! if they are nice, they are nice!!!

so hope this helps plz vote me as the best answer!!!!!! :)

Answer 17

Who has said it is?. I think that you should be allowed to like whoever you wish. Me, I cannot be accused of being a bigot or a racist, I hate everyone equally so how is that being racist?

Answer 18

In my opinion, it's like saying you like blond or tall people or whatever. The skin colour is just another physical detail. Plus you don't just focus on the outside, but on other traits as well. Can't see anything racist about that.

Answer 19

liking someone just because of their race is just as bad as not liking them because of their race.

You choose to hang with light skinned blacks.  That sounds racist to me.

Answer 20

lmao.  so are you implying that darker skinned black people are not good people?  yes you are racist.  that would be like me making the statement that 'i like dark haired white people--i just like good people'  the amazing part is that you don't see the stupidity in that statement.  you answered someones question about the beauty of black woman saying that only 'light skinned' black woman like halle and beyonce are beautiful.  maybe these people need to look at some of your previous questions and answers and then decide if you a tad bit of a bigot.  i think you are just an ignorant uneducated person who thinks that you are sounding intelligent.

Answer 21

the races I like are indy cars, and horse races. HA HA,

I like asians and Brazilian women. You are not being racist at all. People have a right to like who they like, and dislike those who they think are bad people.  

Answer 22

youre just another ignorant racist. im a "light skinned black" lol and if i knew you personally and you expressed these views to me id be so disgusted that it would be difficult to even look at your pathetic ***. i should hope all my fellow human beings (the decent unprejudiced ones) would agree that you are a waste of oxygen.  

Answer 23

Why don't you like brown people? :|

Now that's racist! =}

Answer 24

There wasn't anything racist about what you said until the end, where you said "I choose to like good people".  Why are dark-skinned people bad?  That's the only racist (more like offensive/bigoted) aspect of this question.  Preferring light skin to dark skin is kinda like preferring blonde hair to brown hair --it's not offensive until you characterize all light-skinned people as good and all dark-skinned people as bad (similar to if you characterized all blondes as dumb/S****y and all brunettes as intelligent/good girls).  See the difference?  

Answer 25

uh how is someone being a light skinned black make them good? You are rasist because you are selective based on skin color and culture. You are rasist because it is eviden that you think you are superior to others  when you say " I love every race". I think you think you are superior to others. You should travel somewhere outside of the U. S. and experience other places. You will be floored at how no other place concentrates so much on race as the United State of America and its kinda ironic. You are dumb and mean and shouldnt like yourself.

Answer 26

It's racist because you are choosing to like people of certain skin color. I think that's what you're saying at least. Racism-The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.  

Answer 27

It's not racism. No matter what color the skin, everyone is the same inside. You have some people that try to do good and others that don't care. Their skin color doesn't determine that. A lot of white people love Asians and vice-versa and is the same with all colors and nationalities. As long as you love everyone, people have to let people live. Even people of the same race don't always get along.

Answer 28

It's not..however, you probably have a higher degree of attraction to those skin colors you mentioned, which is not at all racist.  It's like saying the fact that I prefer brunettes over blonds is racist!  Don't worry about it.

Answer 29

Well first of all from the way youve written it sounds like your saying only light skinned black, asians and whites are good people. Race doesn't have any effect on this at all. People are people, there race usually doesnt effect them that much, and if they are radical about it you need to stay away from them anyways

Answer 30

Look, you already know you're white trash, I mean it's the nickname you chose for yourself, so I'm not going to repeat it.  You can take the girl out of the trailor park, but you can't take the trailor park out of the girl.  It's sad but true.

Answer 31

Its not racism, but you act like you don't like dark-skinned blacks. I've seen alot of light-skinned black, white, and other races act alot worse than the dark-skinned. I think you have a little prejudice in you.
