What's Wrong With the Term 'Person of Color'

The BLS data sets beg to differ.

I was mostly talking about scoring the snatch.

Interesting how that stuff works. I read somewhere that the lowest-rated groups to belong to in that respect were Black women and Asian men. Have no idea if it was true, though I suspect it might be - seems that for whatever reason lotsa White dudes have the yellow fever for Asian women, but that the same isn't true of White women for Asian men.

Most white women don't want to date dudes who are skinnier than they are.

As an example, I see a lot of "no blacks" listed in profiles when on dating sites. Usually with a comment like - not racist, just a preference.

Wow that's weird.  Of course back when I was doing the online dating thing it was a rare black woman who would not have her list of racial preferences anything other than just black...or at least the ones I was considering.  I would be just like 'oh ok...thanks for letting me know' and move on.

Yeah, I haven't dated in about 4 years but I never saw anything like "no blacks" on the profiles of women whose interests matched mine.

Garbon's choice of dating site is unlikely to have any women on it.

That's actually quite a salient point

I don't see sex.

Well for the site I was on, Match, you listed the races you wanted to get with not the ones you did not.  So you never actually had to explain away why you had certain preferences or whatever.

Really?

[garbon]

That's pretty awful.

[Martinus]

When did "boy" go into use?

It's still in use in BDSM roleplay.

[katmai]

Can I still call Seedy "Darkie"?

[Valmy]

That's pretty awful.

Eh I liked it.  If somebody only would consider being with a Latin guy, or whatever, it was to  know that in advance.

I mean sure it is good to weed out the racially challenged but then at the same time only helps to encourage said individuals.

I thought tanning was a bit passe now, the mark of someone who doesn't care about their health and goes on crappy package holidays to the Med  ?

Reminds me of the Dr. Suess story "the Sneeches".

The poors got stars on thars! 

That was a good story 

So much of human interaction is about that, pity really when rich countries have the basics more or less universally sorted.
