    Why are you singling out, though? There have been numerous WW on here who have explicitly stressed their disdain for WM.
    WM and their small pink dicks, blah blah.
    WW have gotten away with worse diatribes of "WM are so pale, ugly, a turn off, disgusting" and they get high fives here, lol.

    Who cares if some don't find another attractive? Aren't you sick enough already of people dictating to you whom you should find attractive or not?

    and then there are the conversations about how women in the US suck and aren't worth a shit. How if you want a woman who's this or that, you need to go outside the US.

    The irony is that Dick Policing doesn't change anything. The pic of the BW models posted does nothing for me, but clicking on the link for the Redheads was highly stimulating.

    People are always going to be attracted to whatever they are attracted to. No amount of someone trying to control that is going to work.

    No one is dick policing anybody. People say shit. Other people have a right to respond.
    If someone says something fucked up and I feel a need or inclination to speak on it, I will.

    Yall are the ones triggered, not me.:rolleyes:

    For us racism means you are discriminating against someone else based on race. It’s not just white Americans who are racist in this world, there are many other population groups who hold racist views but have nothing to do with white supremacy.

    I haven’t read it but I generally don’t feel like we are on here to talk bad of white men or black women, rather we can concentrate on ourselves, white women and black men.

    Can't do that when 99.99% of the active posters literally have no reason to do that, hence why they go above & beyond concentrating on all that other bullshit.......

    The thing is, as long as some people want to argue on the literal level and others are trying to talk meta-analysis we will not come to a conclusion here even if we continue for another three weeks so never mind....We aren’t even talking about the same things here, my impression.

    If we want to concentrate on other bullshit, I.e. criticising wm or bw, entertaining queen of spades and cuck conversations and all the other nonsense then we don’t need to complain if those things influence how others view our relationships as ww and bm.

    Views and practices are different. You said yourself none of those groups have anything to do with white supremacy or any kind of racial supremacy. Richard Henry Pratt first used the term in 1902 to describe the racial segregation in America. “Segregating any class or race of people apart from the rest of the people kills the progress of the segregated people or hinders their growth. Association of races and classes is necessary to destroy racism and classism.” Although he was racist himself(lol.) but he did say that later in his life. Polygenist Christoph Meiners for another example, split mankind into two divisions which he labeled the "beautiful White race" and the "ugly Black race". I could go on and on but basically historical practices and so-called scientific studies are what actually shaped the term and meaning which is why it is associated with things like white supremacy.

    Ok, I understand where you are going with this.
    Maybe it’s a linguistic issue I’m having here cos we don’t have a very appropriate translation for bigotry in this context so we just tend to go with racism. So never mind, carry on;-)

    It's literally two tiers of posters on this site. Posters with legit ties in/connections to IR relationships and posters with casual to zero ties/connections to IR relationships. The casual/zero tier literally have hijacked the focus of the site. Shit that has no actual bearing when it comes to IR relationships has now become the primary focus.

    It's like a bunch of self appointed neighborhood watchers believing they have the same authority as actual police officers to go out and enforce the law.

    It's been said many times on here, that racism is not possible for other groups because racism is based on power and oppression. So, if one is not in a place of power and being able to oppress the other, they can be hateful and even say/do all sorts of things against them even when racially motivated/connected, but it's not racist.

    I'm not saying I agree with that stand, I'm just saying that's been the conversation from a few.

    You can't be that narrow minded. You just wanted to lecture others about how they can't generalize. Funny how it works when you want it to and not when you don't.

    So true. I don't think many people realize how few people on here are actually in IR or actually have real IR relationships throughout their life.
