Chama, welcome to the real world. White women and black men are pretty much at the bottom of the heap in China. |

then define "racist" please??It's ridicule to judge whether people are racists or not without giving a clear definition and precise boundary....in this case,everything against the interests of blacks can be titled as "racist".......some people always criticise the chinese,can I say that they r racist???I won't..It's just some kind of stereotype that will be changed gradually by more and further communication... |

My definition of racist is anything that groups people together by their race.
So, for example, if I said that there are some black people living next door - that would be racist. Or if I said I wanted to go to the Chinese restaurant - that would be racist. Or if I said I was dating an Indian girl - that would also be racist.
In my opinion. |

I think calling someone racist should include subjective elements |

in the cited examples, you are right hooia. they are a simplistic view that is meant to remove the 'sting' from the term by people who are so overly concerned about being politically correct that they lose the overall picture.
too many people confuse adjectives and racism. they forget that racism involves more than grouping by race; it also includes a sense of dislike, different treatment or hatred based on racial features. the technical definition includes a sense of superiority based on racial traits or characteristics. |

Which I get here ever so often...and goosie I wouln't put blacks here that far down in the heap.
White girl treatment by the westerners here is just sad. I'm not hard up on getting a relationship or sex but when I do get rejected all I was saying was that the ugly girl should look in the mirror. In actuality most of the Chinese women that rejct me on race they just turn out to be pretty ugly anyway.
While the pretty girls give me a try or just reject me based on them wanting a Chinese guy or they like taking it slow and i don't want that.
One of my nutty theories are that the ugly girls don't want to remain ugly in hopes that dating a white guy will grant their children blue eyes. This is what one girl told me anyway. |

You have been referring to the said girl as "ugly" throughout, isn't that racist?
Oooops, ugly ain't a race. Is it? |

So its ok for the poster to classify somebody as "ugly" based on his criteria of/for beauty but somebody rejecting him because of the black color of his skin is not? Its "racist"? |

Yes. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Skin color/eye shape/hair color are not.
You have two different waves of thought that won't work combined as one. First, the "ugly" issue for both the OP's definition of the girl and the possible girl's thoughts on the OP. Second, the race card.
Unfortunately, without hearing from the girl and seeing her abrupt responce and immediate blocking of the OP, I've got to say that her reaction was motivated beyond "he's ugly". |

people can be so superficial... being half thai i know how people there react to dark skin. you cant buy skin products which dont say "whitening" and the thai girls sit on the beach with sweaters and jeans on because they're so scared of getting dark:P but chinese/japanese people are "beautiful" for them. as magnolia said: beauty is in the eye of the beholder. and whats up with all that stuff about race?!we arent dogs or horses.. |

****. There goes my idea of labeling the OP as racist as the said girl and hence just tit-for-tat. Problem solved.
Are u really really sure ugly isn't a race?  |

Can't be arsed to go back and read all the BS. Did the "great block" occur after or before exchanging pics?
If after, then its certainly just "he's ugly" issue (assuming he let her onto the fact that he is black). However, if it was before and the girl rejected him as soon as she knew he was black.......well.....
i am confused. |

Well it was after the pic. She didn't know I was black My pic was on msn. And she asked... are you black? And I said yeah and then she said something about not liking blacks then disappeared from the list.
After seeing her picture I didn't feel like asking "are you ugly" which most definately she was. I also didn't want to say she was ugly. To be honest I would have dated her anyway. Personality over looks to me....except if she was obese. |

is obesity a race? u r racist, my friend
honestly though, don't take these things too seriously mate. u will loose ur head. racism exists in china just like everywhere else. and there are enough ladies out there for you to date. no need for u to get high strung on this one. infact its better. imagine if u two had set up a blind date <<shudder>> |

I get strung when I see people reject guys just because they look Chinese and not a foreigner.  |

why not?
to save yourself from going insane. you have spent a lot of time/effort/thought on this, did it affect the girl who caused the trouble in any way. nopes. the only one suffering (for lack of a better word) is you my friend.
as for me, no, i never take it seriously when a chinese is rude to me (ok ok did happen for the first month or so after i moved here). but that's it. a month. its a frame of mind. you are either at peace with urself or u aren't. i cannot and will not go down to their level just so i could be as low-life as they are. and this goes only for the ***holes and not the entire chinese population. so you politically correct guys, think before jumping on me. |
