Do you think it would be considered racist if there was an all White dating website? Or an all White TV station?
Its just something i noticed, thats all
How come there is internet dating for black and Asian people but not an all white?
that is crazy right? They are out there but they just can't be named "all white" otherwise someone might get there panties all in a bunch. You know how sensitive the world is.
Reply:Generally speaking, a majority race has more power in a society. Minority races sometimes seek to increase their power or esteem by congrigating in like groups. When the majority, which already has more power does this it is seen as threatening. But in practice, there are white clubs, fraternities, sororities etc, but it is never actually stated in the charter.
Reply:Well if you are trying to find a white guy to date then look no further......I'll be your BUBU bear ;)
how U doin' ?
Reply:damn near everything in the world is dedicated to white ppl and their lives. let minorities have a lil something of their own. try eharmony, chemistry.com...are you a racist or something?
Reply:Double standards, I'll never understand.
Reply:sigh.....you just HAD to go there.........
Most of the major dating sites are populated by predominantly white people to the point where white people looking for non-white people can't find anyone. The point of black, asian, hispanic, whatever internet dating sites is for people from those cultures looking for someone specifically within their culture, which they are not likely to find on the predominantly white mainstream sites.
And I'm sure that if you look hard enough, you may find some white-only dating sites. If the KKK can have a webpage, then there can be an all white internet dating site.
Reply:Racism.
Just another case of society keeping the white man down.
Reply:No its not racist-is it racist for a white person to say they are only attracted to blonds??its a speciality website.i think they are probably created because the black or asian people weren't gettin much love on the other website so they made a specialist one.But to be honest its not really for me i like to keep my options open and not limit myself but i dont think its racism.
Reply:i don't care. i don't want to only date white people anyways. variety is much better.
Reply:because if you were to say it were all white, it would automatically be deemed racist. Sad, but true. It would be acceptable if it were all Irish, or all German, Finnish or what ever but not all white. All Black or all Asian sites, people are supposedly looking for someone in their own culture
Reply:Black and Asian people make up less than 1% of the population in the UK (believe it or not), so the chances of meeting someone of the same race that is right for you is not as good as it would be if that black or asian person were in a black or asian country, so some people set up dating websites to target such an audiance knowing that they will attract a very high percentage of the market. and it will mean that black or asian people wanting to meet someone of the same race has an easier time looking for potential dates. A white person looking to meet another white person can just go on a normal dating website and over 99% of the people on are likely to tick that particular box so they don't need a designated dating site. I do agree however, that if such a site were to exist, people would consider it offensive, but when a normal dating site offers all they need, it is slightly more elitist than an all black or all asian site.
Reply:It's because they are not a minority yet. They are abundant and can be found anywhere you go. Asians and Blacks, however, can be a hot commodity depending on where you live. In about 50 years, when whites are a minority, an all white dating site or channel will not be considered racist......give it some time.
Reply:Well... history has proven that when groups of "all whites" form, non-whites start dying.
Think KKK, Nazi Germany, U.S. Army during the Indian Wars.
Its just not P.C. anymore.
Reply:Haven't you been paying attention.Minorties have hings geared towards them but everyone is welcome.
When white people have something for white people it somehow goes from being just a group focused on white people to being a group focusing on how white people are better than everyone else.
They can't have their own things without using it for a racist purpose.
Example-The asian and black dating sites are geared towards asians or blacks but they don't stop other races from participating.
If their was a dating site geared towards white people they would most likely ban any other race from using it.
Reply:it is racist, but i guess since the majority of americans are considered "white" it's not as necessary?
Reply:yeah, it's that double standard again.... The blacks will get into an uproar again, and summon Al Sharpton and Jesse jackson...
Reply:wouldn't that be .....uhhhh.....what's the word again....glad I don't feel so ......(the same word as a verb), being white and walking around anywhere in Asia, being asked for money, or being known as a 'walking wallet' so they can charge me more than double than local prices for anything.
I would not consider it racist. There's discrimination going on everywhere, also amongst people of same 'colour'.
Reply:I think when white people are officially a "minority" in whatever country you're talking about (USA?) things like that will be okay. It won't be long now.
Reply:they do have whites only its called marry a Russian bride, or many Eastern European countries would love to marry a American guy
Reply:reverse-discrimination. It doesn't bother me. I feel it should bother minorities more. When racism is gone (when we all mix up like Brazil), there will likely be less things set aside for minorities
