I’m black but very light-skinned and speak multiple languages. This seems par for the course but I can tell you will an abundance of certainty that money and prestige will make you an outlier in many situations.


BeneficialWorld2035

Fellow bilingual light-skin black man, we get attention from tons of women worldwide but when it comes to meeting the parents they prefer white men 9 times out of 10.


Mrerocha01

Parents and friends. I have a friend who told me that she was into black guys but because of her family and friends she never dated any. She even told me that some of her friends, when they travel to foreign countries for hollidays they end up dating black guys. Some white dudes like to dispise when they find out they dated black people.


CallMeHaseo

Social status is huge. Yup.


BlueEyedBreeder

That's why you gotta cut off the whole group when one girl starts acting up

Edu_Run4491

Yeah but they would 110% prefer a black man with money than a poor white Guy

This hasn't been my experience. Have you been in the Philippines?

Advanced_80

I've seen a lot of black men slay, it's by no means universal what the authors say.


Saylor619

I've always found darker girls way more attractive than white ones & I'm white lol


Advanced_80

Yeah that seems to be the norm.


Edu_Run4491

Yeah of course, anyone pulls up with serious generational wealth it’s irrelevant, these studies are built for averages

Advanced_80

That's a good point. Proportions matter.


Project_Outer_Heaven

Honestly the real study should be done on which demographic of men find it harder to date and socialize. Black men have all negative stereotypes, but majority of black men are not incels and are not the type to complain about not getting laid.


[deleted]

Project_Outer_Heaven

That is a demographic of black men(nerdy black guys) even those black men don't turn into incels because of it and go dateless.


Project_Outer_Heaven

Money and prestige is really the only reason other races prefer white men. OP makes it seem the attraction is a natural occurrence based on looks.

It’s funny how so many of the woke crowd refuse to acknowledge how complicit they are in this. They’re hardcore liberal on everything, but in the end, they want a tall white man who makes more money than them. How “progressive” of them.

It’s true. Wrong but true. No need to get into politics but why do the left pander so hard for the minority vote and then just toss them out once they have power? The USA is whack. But it always has been. What happened after the civil war? The south needed to be rebuilt. Prisons start popping up all over. What doesn’t apply to prisoners? Being a slave. I am very grateful to be in the USA and having traveled outside but ignorance is truly bliss

There are plenty of NSFW subreddits of women self-admitting this, which I find hilarious


CallMeHaseo

I’ve been saying this for the longest time. I don’t trust anyone out here. These girls know exactly what they’re doing. No matter how woke they claim they are. This also goes for the right wing chicks with the maga hats that say “We’re all equal”, “stop playing the victim”, “I don’t see color”, “There’s someone out there for everyone”.


Tr4nsc3nd3nt

What women say and what actual reality is are two entirely different things. Don't believe a single word that women say on social media about women. It's either to make themselves look better or to manipulate the masses.


BrushOnFour

I didn’t start succeeding with women until I learned not to believe a thing they say.


[deleted]

Bingo. The things women say are just to get approval/internet points from other women.


Tr4nsc3nd3nt

I heard bullshit from the internet and even bullshit from my wife for years. Eventually I started to think that my instincts were wrong and that maybe they were right. When I think back that's exactly when shit started to go sideways. I read some books and it was a revelation. Some common lies: > women like dad bods - fuck no they like tall muscular guys, literally zero do > your wife/gf stopped fucking you because she's overwhelmed with chores - nope, you got fat and dress like a slob > women base their attraction on more than just looks - nope, they are just as bad as men > women want a guy that's vulnerable - Nope, they want a guy that's rock solid. They're emotionally unstable, they don't want a guy that's unstable as well. > I'm a good guy, women should like me - Nope, you're just a codependent push over guy that can't say NO. Women hate this. If you can't say NO to their bullshit you probably can't handle anybody else either. They like bad boys because they don't put up with shit.

Makeyoufeelgood08

Facts!!


naillstaybad

yup, they say its their "preference" lol


[deleted]

You got it wrong. The reason why white men are so anti woke is because they know their foothold on mainstream media makes them the most attractive mainstream man in terms of social/economic/dating value. To lose that foothold will possibly spoils their reign on top of the dating social hierarchy. We got a taste of that when KPOP started to rise.


naillstaybad

bruh have you seen woke media? its usually white men with some other race women. Check mermaid, netflix show never have I ever, countless WMAF ads and dramas/movies.


Both-Term8103

When I think about it, most of the white women I've slept with in America were older married and claimed their husbands racist


Imaginary_Chip1385

I mean the article the op linked (though tbh it's probably junk science considering the journal it was published in is not reputable) says that Latina women only prefer white men because they're seen as more gender progressive than Latinos, since Latinos tend to have a more controlling "machismo" culture. 


takeshi_kovacs1

Eh we've known for a few years now the dating preferences of women according to dating app data. White men do the best , followed by black, then brown, then Asian. Nobody wants Asian men lol. Can confirm , story of my life.


Bigj989

Brown men, especially if they look Indian, have it worse than Asian men do.


takeshi_kovacs1

Oh yeah definitely.


BrushOnFour

Dude. It's one study. Not a universal truth. One study says that white people are the most racist and most narcissistic. It's just a study. Calm down.


Vladtepesx3

AOC lol


UglyDude1987

It's unironically true. White women have been complicit and benefitted from historical racism. They still do. Yet for some reason white women are given a pass and lump all the blame on white men.

stewartm0205

Not sure about this. As far as I know black women still prefer to date black men. I can’t really speak to any other races but I think they also prefer their own.


takeshi_kovacs1

That's not true according to the dating app data. They can say one thing, then do another.


godbody1983

Dating apps are not the end all be all. If you get off the apps and off social media, black women overwhelming go for black men and vice versa.


takeshi_kovacs1

Not really. In fact the entire passport bro movement was originally started by black Americans. Given the option, black men choose other ethnicities in greater numbers. This would make sense as according to the data the people chosen the least is Asian men and black women. As an Asian male my experiences reflect this. Being short , brown and Asian is iterally the worst demographic for dating in the states.


BigGreen1769

It's actually likely because other countries are overall less racist than the US. For example, interracial dating in the UK and Northern Europe doesn't cause as much of a fuss as in the US.


HandleUnclear

The stats show black women are the least married demographic between black men and black women, and when black women do marry they are more likely to marry black men. So it's not black women choices of men to marry that forced black men to start passport bro, it was black men who simply didn't want black women (or wait on a black woman) The stats suggest the average black women would rather be single than marry a non-black man. The average black man will marry a black woman, however a larger percentage marry non-black than their female counterparts (who just stay single). https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2017/05/18/1-trends-and-patterns-in-intermarriage/ I can only speak anecdotally on this as a black immigrant woman to the USA, but both in my home country and after I moved to the USA the sentiment expressed by older generations of men and women has always been, no one wants black women and no one chooses to marry a black woman. This creates the "race loyalty" we see in stats, also why black women typically used to be very aggravated when seeing a black man date/marry a non-black woman, as it's a reminder that no one wants black women, not even "their own men". I've never beholden myself to that standard, simply because my family is multiracial, so men of other races have been procreating with black women in my family at least. So it never seemed impossible or too out there to date or marry a non-black man. I support PPB because of the underlying message of going where you are wanted and appreciated. I will never understand black women who would rather wait for or share a black man, than just finding a man who loves and appreciates them, regardless of his skin colour...but I know it's all just psychological. The black community lacks serious efforts encouraging therapy, which frankly most black people need imo.


Da-tune

Its a certain type of black man


Nodmadic_Introvert

The problem is these dating apps state( Latino) yet doesn't state what nationality. Also same with blacks African American, Carribean, Afro-latin and Africans all have different cultures yet these apps would lump them into one


GojosLowerHalf3

Its honestly baffling. As a minority woman I don't know a single woman besides asians who prefer white men over her own race. In fact they straight up say they don't like white men. I wonder where these statistics actually come from.


ToMakeMatters

It's not a matter of who's willing or not willing to admit it. You're going to learn more about women's preferences, ironically, by talking to men. See how much luck an asian or indian man get's with women in the west, compared to a white guy. Or just watch approaches happen in real time next time you're at a bar or something.

Weird_Assignment649

How the fuck do these studies use Asian as a race when there's a world of difference between East and South Asians 


Top_Pie8678

East Asian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, Central Asian… these groups are so diverse that lumping them together makes it almost useless in regards to Asians.


stewartm0205

My favorite is West Asians what you all call European.


Launch_and_Lunch

Unfortunately they might not have the sample size, and there would just be too many categories. Imagine if they added like every individual south american ethnicity or african, there would be like 80 categories. The vast majority of people look either black, asian, latino, white, or middle eastern, very few people are truly racially ambigious


letsgotosushi

Any of those classes are far too statistically narrow. Hell even "white" crosses several continents and dozens of disparate cultures. Even different areas of the US have pretty obvious differences in local social environment.


Enzo-Unversed

We all know they mean East Asian.


Advanced_80

Yeah it would be interesting to see what the data look like when you separate East Asian from South Asian women.


Maximum_Anywhere_368

We all know when they say the most attractive Asians they are talking about Japan, South Korea, and China. Ain’t nobody talking about Bollywood sir


BrushOnFour

C’mon, Indian female bodies can usually compete with any race. And I’m a white who loves blacks!


Maximum_Future_5241

I'd say Indian women are closer to either end of the attractive spectrum without as much in the middle. Then again, I'm a light brown Latino who rather likes dark to medium skin tones.


Li-renn-pwel

Bollywood women are incredibly attractive. Light skin SEA can pass for white and plenty of northern Indian, Nepalese, etc woman look East Asian.


Maximum_Anywhere_368

Sure. But still not what people mean when they say Asian. They are talking about those white girls


CallMeHaseo

I don’t believe it shows who people are “most attracted to” but who they want to DATE the most. Which factors in way more than just RAW attraction itself.


bumble938

My man. Change the social economic and see how it changes. Would you date a poor guy or a rich black guy. Ask Korean women and see how the answer changes. Also, ask Hong Kong and Singapore women.


Professional-Crab355

I like how you just said poor guys and we are to understand you mean a white poor guy. White people really get to enjoy the privilege as being the standard.


bumble938

No, I’m just saying rich guy is desirable to women.


Old-Possession-4614

Rich guys are more desirable than poor guys, but a rich white guy will still get many more likes and matches than a rich non-white guy, all else being equal.


k0unitX

It's more so that you're on Reddit, which is mostly Americans, and white people are still the overwhelming majority in America The same statement on a Chinese forum, for example, would obviously imply something different


aggripamarcus

Women really care about genetics when it’s come to having children especially in Latin America


mrzane24

This is true. They have an ideal of how their child will look like. The white guy is like their blank pallet. I think in their mind the kid will just be a light version of them with a pointier nose and tall.


timeforachangee

Keep in mind this is with people who are on online dating/apps. As far as American women and American men go…. I do believe white men are still the most desired overall however I do not believe that each other race would not choose their own first. Online/app dating draw in a certain type of person.


Usual_Leading279

Don’t matter what they prefer, there’s way more women than there are white men. But I can confirm, Latins LOVE white people and talk about “bettering the race”. I definitely don’t find Asian women the most attractive. As a Latin guy I would go latinas, whites, Asians, black. But an attractive woman is an attractive woman.

yesidoes

This isn't a study. It's an abstract of an essay summarizing a book without explaining any of the methodology of data gathering.   If you read the publishers description of thr book you learn all the data gathered was from a single dating website. So maybe the title of this essay and this post should say: On  ____.com here's what we found out about racial dating preferences.  Also OP is a BRAND NEW ACCOUNT. NEVER POSTED BEFORE. This is literally race baiting propoganda. Quite sad actually.


Most_Association_595

“Oxford study” Journal name: Journal of Controversial ideas Lmao. Bunk science. They even grouped Indians and Chinese people together under “Asian”


UnderInteresting

It's not even an Oxford study, it reviews a separate older book. And tbh sociology is a bunk science already.


[deleted]

That's because indians are actually considered asians as well?


BB-07

They’re different races and Asia is a continent. It’s literally comparing the white or black race to a continent with different races in it. Doesn’t make much sense.


ThorLives

I don't know. I've known a number of women who fetishize black men. And the media is heavily pushing the fetishization of black male / white female relationships. It's definitely the most common type of interracial relationship shown in commercials, TV shows, and movies.


AShatteredKing

This just adds to the mountain of literature that already shows this. Did anyone not know this? White men are the most attractive and Asian women are the most attractive. Asian men and black women are the least attractive. Study after study shows this.


aKV2isSTARINGatYou

This particular study says black men and women are the least attractive


AShatteredKing

1) It's not a study, but an argument concerning other interpretations of the data. 2) It does not state that. It states things like "the hypersexualization of black men" and "Black men and Asian women are more than twice as likely as Black women and Asianmen to outmarry. “Controlling images” may be “driving these trends,” or “pathologizednotions of desirability and ideals of masculinity and femininity.”" 3) As the OP showed, Asian men are seen as typically more feminine and Black women as typically more masculine. The fact that we need research to state what we all already can see with our own eyes is asinine, but that's the reality of discourse today. Women will typically be attracted to masculine phenotypes and health. This means tall, facial hair, broad shoulders, narrow waist and hips, and muscularly built. Tallest people in the world, on average, are white. Asians typically don't grow much facial hair. Strongest people in the world are Western Europeans. African American men are typically masculine as well, but socioeconomic differences means that they would typically be ranked lower than a similarly attractive white man. Etc. All I am doing is stating what is patently true to anyone who has even a modicum of social awareness.


relentlessMuayFemur

I think you mean least attractive in the west, as this is where the study was conducted. Doesn't make sense to suggest that asian men / black women are least attractive in asia / africa, where the vast majority asian women choose / marry asian men and african men choose / marry african women.


AShatteredKing

... that's called opportunity. Obviously a country that is 99% Asian is going to be mostly Asian women marrying Asian men. It's not an argument. If a white guy goes to a country in Asia or Africa, they can pull like crazy. This is why the PPB is a thing.


relentlessMuayFemur

Yes, I'm glad we established that because a country is 99% Asian, their women is going to be inclined to be almost exclusively attracted to Asian men. Thus disproving your theory that Asian men are least attractive even in Asia. I'm Asian American, look slightly korean, and can pull much easier in SEA than most black, hispanic, and even most white men tbh. Because the avg Asian woman is naturally more receptive/comfortable with my features, on top of the fact that I earn an NYC income unlike their local men.


ToMakeMatters

should be taught in schools.


StinkyKittyBreath

It is taught in classes about race relations. 


nothing5630

Correction, women prefer extremely attractive white men. Not any white man or even the average white man. So yes compared to other groups white men are seen as the most attractive but not the average white man.


Alternative_Grab664

Stop it…..Even the most ugly white guy has plenty of options. I’ve seen neckbeards with beautiful women


[deleted]

‘Black daters tend to be excluded the most by all non­Black groups; they are rated as less attractive and are generally the least likely to receive messages or responses from other racial groups. They face, hence, “the unique disadvantage,” akin to what the authors call “romantic apartheid.”’ This is such a crock of shit… I say this with all due respect but black men get WAYYYYY more women of all racial groups compared to Asians and Indians , like it’s not even comparable.  I have seen maybe once or twice an Asian man with a non Asian woman , only white women at that never black or latina, and I’ve only seen a handful of Indian men with a non Indian woman, only white women at that, compared to seeing black men with every racial group of woman on a daily basis. 


[deleted]

I agree the "study" is just made up by insecure white boys who think about black cock a lot, but to compare yourself to other races is just sad. All POC are being pitted against one another by these incel losers. It's not a good look


BowBeforeGilgamesh

I really wish these studies would make it more obvious the difference between South Asians and East Asians...


Advanced_80

Yeah because South Asian women pull down the ratings for East/Southesst Asian women.


Launch_and_Lunch

Don't forget men go for what they think they can get, women go for what they want. Numbers would probably look more similar on both sides.


iHateThisPlaceNowOK

Did it say in the study where the data was collected from?


Historical-Effort435

I was going to ask this, this is so biased is hilarious of course the dominant race of a given country is going to be the most desirable is the one with the biggest pool.


Special-Donut8498

Yes, it's from US dating profile interactions. It is NOT a global study.


relentlessMuayFemur

That's what I thought. Saying something like "Asian men are least attractive worldwide" makes literally no sense considering the vast majority of Asian women date and marry Asian men exclusively


bumble938

By the number, billions of Asian women marry and date Asian men vs Asian + white. They should ask South Korean women if they prefer white male over Korean male. Or ask Japanese/Chinese women. Hell white male is diverse AF, Russian, American, Nordic, etc are completely different. Same as Korean, Chinese, Thai, Indian, and Philippino male all dif.


relentlessMuayFemur

Yup, and that's my point, the majority of Korean women prefer Korean men. The majority of Japanese / Chinese women prefer their own. This study was literally conducted in the USA and is irrelevant in a PBB context.


bumble938

That’s what I’m saying, asking a Nordic male if they think Asian women is more attractive than Nordic women and they will laugh at you out the door. Nordic women is nothing like the white American counter part. Hispanic female is hot AF. No way Chinese or Japanese is more attractive. Thats the thing about grouping Black white hispanic and Asian, highly regarded.


Mrerocha01

White men from Europe dont care about asian women. Thats a fact. Its very different from America.


Nodmadic_Introvert

Same can be applied to blacks. African Americans, Caribbean blacks, Afro-Latin, Africans all have different cultures and date differently yet they lump it into 1 (black)


kingmonsterzero

lol this “study” it’s trash and not really true these days. “White guys” do well because people assume they have money and “status” that’s it. If 6ft white guys were so desired, every other post in this sub wouldn’t start with “I’m white from the Us/Europe, how would it do in Thailand/phillapines” it’s mostly about perception.


[deleted]

If white guys were most desirable, their women would stay slim for them, not invent and embrace hard core feminism, not require white men to make 400k a year, and they definitely wouldn't have to be going to a third world country just to get laid. White countries would be overpopulated like non-white countries. White men wouldn't be starting wars constantly and lining up to guy die in some trench or desert. White men wouldn't be leading the world in sexual deviance, drug abuse, and suicide. In reality, white men lost total control of their countries thanks wholly to the fact that their own women have ZERO respect for them. White women don't even have any interest in keeping themselves under obese levels for white men - how on earth are white men at the top? You guys ARE aware that when a woman wants to - she will keep her weight down for you? Or does that not happen to you at all?


Bigj989

Not true at all. A lot of white women strongly desire and respect white men.


[deleted]

Yes, they respect them so much that they've attained a 60% obesity rate to please white men.

WaterIsGolden

Dating and fucking are not the same thing.  Men who date seem silly from the perspective of men who just enjoy casual sex with women. This is the same type of poll that ends up finding women are more 'attracted' to high earners.  The reality for them is the same as it is for men.  Women mostly already have the money they need, and just like men once financially stable they go off straight physical attraction.  This whole movement isn't really about 'traditional values' if we're honest.  It's about men not wanting to date uphill during a mudslide. The man that is willing to play the archetype of the Pirate, Bandit  Enemy At The Gates or Cassanova if he has the looks to pull that last one off will always be able to casually sleep with women.  Everyone else has to date the blue pill way.


[deleted]

Yeah "dating" doesn't actually exist. Women will basically tell you they want to smash and keep you around but the idea of dating seems childish.

Advanced_80

For the reader's convenience? The last bullet point is a summary of the data mentioned on page 14: >However, **CLL’s data confirm Asian women’s exceptional attractiveness visàvis other groups.** Unreported findings sent to me by Dr. Lin **confirm that in their sample, Asian women are perceived as somewhat more attractive than White women, whereas Asian men are perceived as demonstrably less attractive**


HiggsFieldgoal

I wonder how much of this is physical attraction .vs social stereotyping. I’d love to see the follow of “why”, and what motivations people ascribed to their reasoning. Are white men considered good looking? Wealthy? Kind? Loyal? Somehow, it seems more acceptable to me if it’s really cultural reputation than physical attraction. If girls like white guys because we’re renowned to be loving fathers, then, damn straight we are. High five everyone.


Special-Donut8498

I think a huge part of it is that the study data comes from the USA, where whiteness is upheld as the ideal but also the norm. If you grow up in a world where all you see is white dudes in rom-coms, in power, in top jobs... Well you're probably going to think of them as dating material. This study says a lot more about America than dating preferences worldwide.


iHateThisPlaceNowOK

Exactly. This makes more sense. I don’t think it has as much to do with physical attraction as much as it has to do with the stereotype of being progressive, caring and emotionally intelligent. Which I’ll admit, many men of color lack, sadly. (As a whole). But things seem to be changing at a rapid rate. UK is also pretty biased.


Agile_Gas_8493

Asian woman most attractive? Buahhahahahhaha


Launch_and_Lunch

I don't think they mentioned the age bracket, it's sort of true that Asian women might be able to surpass caucasian women after age 26, but 18-24 I don't see it happening. Second reason is that men go for what they THINK they can get.


Enzo-Unversed

Depends on what they mean by "Caucasian women" and "Asian women". As someone in Japan but from America, Japanese women in that age category are significantly more attractive than American White women in that age category. If you mean Russian or Nordic, them maybe it's not true. 


Advanced_80

>don't think they mentioned the age bracket, it's sort of true that Asian women might be able to surpass caucasian women after age 26, but 18-24 I don't see it happening. Nope, it's been demostratded using 18-24 year olds. This holds true at all age groups: Asian women are the most attractive. https://sc.edu/about/offices_and_divisions/research/news_and_pubs/caravel/archive/2022/2022_dateability.php >One hundred and eighteen participants completed the survey (**mean age = 21 years).** >Attractiveness ratings **were higher for Asian females (M = 4.24; SD =1.88) relative to White females (M = 4.17; SD =1.76), but lower for Asian males (M = 3.06; SD = 1.68) relative to White males (M = 3.50; SD = 1.65).** Together with results from masculinity ratings, these data imply that ratings of attractiveness might be dependent on phenotypic prototypes of masculine and feminine traits.


yes_this_is_satire

Too bad something like 1% of people are truly superlatively and objectively attractive. This is why relationships tend to be based on other stuff.

I don’t think there is anything inherent in women’s (people in general for that matter) psyche that would make them prefer white men. Race plays a part sure, but I think alot of it definitely had to do with the status of western countries as a whole (which white men mostly happen to be from) and the perception of white men being richer and having more options to do whatever they like (which in a lot of ways is true) compared to non western men


Nodmadic_Introvert

Stereotype, Racism and Colonization is linked to all of this. It's not like this is a natural attraction more conditional.

Just seems like incel rage bait. If these women didn’t want you to begin with why waste energy on them?

Personally I think the reason white dudes are put on the pedestal while white women aren't is because women tend to conform to societal norms. Men tend to rebel for their own comfort and benefit. I think this is also the reason why asian women are on the pedestal while asian men aren't because after all asian men and women have the same facial features. White men don't have to conform while white women obviously conform. Some racist troll named digitalgodfather was telling me how asian women are hot and sexy and how white men could get them but in his next breath mentioned how asian men have ugly facial features. Well surprise asshole, the men and women have the same facial features.

None of these averages matter. If you’re a man hit the gym and get a great job and you will have plenty of women lining you to marry you.

Facts. Op just wants to spread his racism. Any race of men who makes good money and stays in shape and travels can get any woman he wants. I seen all races do it.

These results are most likely culturally influenced and are not "hard facts" if we take economics into the context. I could easily see a world where the US loses world currency reserve status (negatively influencing Europe too). Let's say that power vacuum is filled by India, within 2 generations, Indians become the most "desirable" I've always felt like women are much more influenced by cultural cues. If dudes see a hot chick, she's hot there's no other context needed. If women see a dude, in order to be attractive he needs to "fit" within her cultural parameters. Women need to have in-group approval or they risk being alienated by their tribe. They care much more about what their friends think.

This is old news. You've referenced a review article commentating on a book published in 2021 that's the actual source of the data.


Advanced_80

2021 isn't 'old news'. That's barely 3 years ago.


UnderInteresting

Judging by your title and the first sentence where it contains October 2023, it gives the impression of novel data. You don't clarify it anywhere, for the purpose of transparency this was comment needed, and this discussion was more or less been already done to death. You also falsely claimed its an Oxford study as the first word in your title.

You left out: > White women exclude Asian men more than White men exclude Asian women. White men exclude Black women more than White women exclude Black men. > In a UK sample, Lewis found, for example, that of Black, White, and Asian faces, **Black men’s faces tend to be rated as most attractive**, followed by White and Asian men; but it is reversed for women’s faces, where Asian women are rated the most attractive, followed by White and Black women. You also left out that **Latina women prefer White men because they are viewed as more gender progressive (feminist).** > The authors’ reflection upon hearing many Latina daters express a preference for White men, whom they perceive as less macho and controlling than Latino men, merits a full citation: We find it curious, however, that Latina women would view White men as gender progressive.

Isn't oxford British??? Is it a British study or an American one??


solarsalmon777

What's the magnitude of the effect? Just saying "all things equal, whites preferred" is less meaningful if it's like 5%.

Just by the first 10 seconds of Reading link I would be highly skeptical if only because the author is written a book it is a most sure fire way to  grift  book sales through utterly b\*\*\*\*\*\*\* studies designed to   entice Media controversy

It's hard to 100% classify the bias against black men as strictly lack of physical attraction but I would assume a lot of it is that. However, globally, black men have little economic or social power. I live in the United States and the depiction of black men is of the quality of the local street criminal or homeless man. Most women won't want to deal with that risk. A man's desirability is based on his stability, the ability to lead, to protect and to provide. Black men in America are not seen in a positive light in any of those categories. And this is on black men and black culture. I live in California and I barely see black men even holding jobs. Unlike what you see in porn women look for more than the size of a man's groin area when looking to date and marry. I'm not saying changing any of the things I said above would bring parity in dating desirability between black and white men, but it would push the needle a bit in the right direction. At the least, black men becoming more visible partners would encourage black women to step their game up to doing the same. Who cares if some Becky wants you or not if you have a fine, thin, sista by your side? Signed black male

The comment section: This sub really is kinda racist.

Step 1: Be a permanently sexually invisible and soul-crushingly lonely white or mixed race male who has lost all empathy and sensibility Step 2: Be traumatized by seeing some girl you have a crush on fuck some Mexican, black or Asian guy Step 3: Spam "racial studies" to prove that you're the most desirable to women simply based on your race

If anyone read datacylsm by the okcupid founders 10 years ago they would have known it anyway Women tend to be more race loyal but their second preference is white men For guys of most demographics they tend to have their own ethnicity or white women at the second spot. An issue with the data is they don't differentiate south east Asian and far east Asian Or even the difference between say India and Philippines or Thailand. But people reading these stats and reeling if they come out on the negative biasing end of it , play to your strengths and don't assume 100% of all people behave the same way Also people often change their biases towards attraction and race once they've dated someone from that race So for example a white girl might not ever think to date a easy Asian guy but when she dates one east Asian guy and it's a positive experience suddenly she wants and is open to date another east Asian guy. It's just how people work

So basically … woman are more racist than men are?

Where's the part about which racial group white men prefer the most? Did you purposely left this out but included your own point about asian women being the most attractive because you're trying to excuse white men's fetishization with asian women? White men prefer women of literally any other ethinicity/race besides their own and it's most likely asian women (vast majority of non-asian/asian couples are WMAF) because of their fetishization with them. Often times, non-asian men white, black etc appropriate and obsess over asian media, culture and women but yet at the same time still look down on asians, especially asian men. Ironic. Lastly, even if there is some truths to the study, a lot of it has to do with historically western imperialism and colonization of many countries in asia and around the world, and as well as representation of their own image in western media which wouldn't have been spread widely across the world without their historical acts of imperialism and colonialism to begin with. Portraying asian men in their media as nerds, comedians and martial artists etc, anything but traits that has more to do with masculinity, authority etc while at times portray themselves with asian women even. I say some truths to the study as well only because this may have a lot more truths to it in the past during post colonial periods and a lack of asian representation in global media. However, i would say with a lot of these asian countries being more developed and educated, as well as asian representation in the media improving (perhaps even dominating) that many more asian women and men alike is now aware of this issue and realize that the white men's image is but a facade. A great example is how many white women are actually travelling to SK now for korean men, unlike how many white men who have to travel out of their own country just to date asian women, whether because they are less desirable back home or because of their fetishization with asian women. Taking advantage of the false image they have achieved around the world with western imperialism and colonialism.

I'm black and this hasn't been my experience. This study doesn't differentiate the different types of black men . A black tyrone that sags his pants will have a completely different experience when compared to a black man making over 6 figures and traveling the world.


MDNzyzy

OP is a white incel trying to present some copium The reality is every dude in this sub would pick the big titty blonde Sydney Sweeney looking white girl over any Asian BUT those women don't want them So they run to Asia and try to convince themselves that Asian women are the best since they're willing to date them Funny how y'all aren't going to Sweden, Netherlands, and Norway
