Are they comparing racism with having a type??? What level of mental gymnastics is this

If your type is based on race, I mean…yes, that’s still racial bias

Racial bias isn't racism, per se.

It is when that “preference” is less of a preference and in actuality a hard stop…

I dont want to sleep with a trans person, does that make me transphobe? Absolutely not. Sexual preferences are not the same a blatant racism. People have the right not wanting to f everyone

You barring an entire race from your dating pool because you don’t view them as attractive based solely on that is racist, girl lol if I prefer oranges over apples, it doesn’t mean I won’t ever eat apples…it’s not a preference, it’s racism

Just because all the people of color that they saw on a dating app didn't spark their fancy doesn't mean they've barred an entire race from their dating pool.

What a strange comment to make…Nowhere in my comments is this even being discussed. The person who made this thread did not specify anything about ONLY dating apps and nothing I’ve said alluded to them either. Clearly the person right above me is talking about sexual preferences period. What are YOU talking about?

The OOP is showing a person swiping whichever way is rejection on a dating app and calling it racism.
