The intro to the blog on the home page, “We basically prove, using you guys’ race-based messaging habits, that racism is alive and well”, is not only misleading but inaccurate. The research done for this blog is great and does prove the title above, race affects whether people write you back, but not racism. Whether or not people chose to write you back is a prefrence, a prefrence to be prejudice if anything.

One can def say that racism could be a contributing factor to who writes/replies to whom and how often but the data that was collected for this blog and the manner that it was collected does not prove racism.

Prejudice maybe, racism not

I am amused that so many whites are sooo offended by this. Fact is for whatever reason on this site there does appear to be a difference in the responses based on race. The ones that should be angry about this situation are Black women, but in my case I have more important things to be upset about.

I tend to prefer the looks of men with darker skin, hair and eyes and this can vary from olive to black. However, I have met men of all races that I have found attractive even if they didn’t fit my original preference and I have dated many of them.

This is because while I have a preference, I also recognize that there are many forms of attractiveness and the physical one is not the only one, not the most important one.
