Well, yes, but if the category of nose size is bigger or smaller in a general sense in certain ethnic groups, then it makes sense that people that aren't (or are) attracted to certain sizes and shapes of noses will tend to gravitate towards certain ethnic groups.

Although I don't understand people who can't be attracted to certain ethnic groups on that (ethnic) classification alone.

Sorry I expressed that in a convoluted way, I'm a bit tired.

One is a physical preference, and the other is a physical preference. What's the problem with that comparison?

Yo dudes. I think there's a difference between not being attracted to a girl of a certain race and not being attracted to EVERY girl of a race.

You guys get what I'm sayin'?

One of them includes stratification on social, educational, economic, cultural, and political levels with hella stereotypes ubiquitous in our popular consciousness, the other is an arbitrary preference. ¯\_(^..^)_/¯

There's also a difference between identifying a trend and claiming an absolute.

When you're old you'll be attracted to them.

Shit's different, playa.

I hate it when guys talk about how much they like black chicks, but then the only black chicks they'll say are hot are the ones that look half white or half asian.

I don't see where you hope to go with this line of argument.

Truth.


Same with asian girls. As Madcap likes to point out, when guys go nuts over asians they're usually really pale with large eyes.

I am in no way attracted to girls with pale skin. Does that make me racist?

It's not any more discriminatory than saying you don't find fat people attractive, or gingers, tall people, anything. It's all a preference. I for one, don't particularly like most black women.
