Do you really consider that fetishizing, though? I'm sure it is for some people, and I agree that race is irrelevant, but people can be more attracted to one physical quality over another.
I don't think that's a categorically bad thing. I personally prefer dark hair to light hair; I don't see any problem with that.
This question itself wasn't totally. A majority of people with the attitude of one race being hotter usually fetishize certain stereotypes of the race. Like the person would say a certain race is the hottest, but they actually only mean the stereotypical appearance of that race is hot and then exclude others of that race.
When talking about something like hair color it really isn't like that. Hair color is a single trait/quality while race obviously isn't.
Look up... I guess I already responded, but race is really no less genetically different than hair or eye color, it's just been given social relevance, but yes, I agree, now that I understand what you were trying to say.
I guess I should be more clear...I mean race is little more than an amalgamation of random physical characteristics, and I don't see it as anything more than that, but I don't see a problem with people having a physical type...I do get shifty eyes when people say things like "all Asian women are more submissive, though"...so I guess I halfsies agree
Yeah, it's fine to have a physical type, but there is no all around physical type for any race. Individuals in that race vary greatly. Which is why preferring a certain race has to fall on stereotypes. And since they are going by stereotypical appearances, they probably go by stereotypical personalities as well. So yeah, things like Asian women being submissive, stem from this.
Which race of women do you find the most attractive?
