That said, I have seen extremely attractive people of both genders from all races and from most ethnicities I have encountered. My preference towards Asians is not so much because of how they look, as because of their general mentality and culture - even though I personally do not share that mentality and culture. If I ever become married, it will almost certainly be with someone from that region, or a descendant from someone from that region.
I would say that racial preferences are not okay, but racial trends in preferences are okay. If you like someone who happens to be Asian and that is a general pattern you have noticed, that is fine; if you like someone BECAUSE they are Asian and in spite of all other factors, then we have a problem.

Relationships should be founded on a person's character, not superficial and literally skin deep assessments of someone's looks.
While you may have ingrained racial preferences you can't conciously control, the entire idea of any kind of serious relationship being based on someone's looks and perceived attractiveness is a conscious choice on your part and what's know as sexual objectification.

Imagine if you really-really like someone and want them to be your partner overall, and they respond with mutual affection. You are looking at the dreamlike relationship and more.
But they are Black, and you prefer Asians. So this subconscious demon sits in you and says, "Do not go for it." And you do not go for it, because of the arbitrary prejudices you have towards Black people romantically, even if they do not apply to this particular individual.
You just lost a great opportunity in your life. This is an example of how impractical racial preferences can be. Racial trends in preferences are okay, but generalizing those trends to every single potential partner would be wrong.
P.S. Not sure what Debra dislikes about this post... I cannot find anything inconsiderate!
