Thot is another word for ho.

Yeah, definitely. Best practice would still be to have an open mind, though. But I'm not really bothered by implicit dating preferences, it's the explicit "I just don't"s that are always about something else that they refuse to admit.
Even implicit preferences can lead to questions though. Especially when you have black guys who never date black women, easily could be access/shared interests.. but at least in America, we also have a history of painting black women as undesirable that something more sinister may be lurking. Complicated, luckily our resident racists usually make it pretty simple.

It's sensible to look for someone that's likely to have things in common with you, especially if you're looking for anything with some durability. But just like there's a difference between saying you're more attracted to group x and you don't think group y is attractive at all, there's a difference between saying group x is more likely to share views with you and group y could never understand you.
The thing both of those criteria have in common is if you try to apply them to an entire group, it crosses the line from preference to prejudice. I mean, how seriously can you take someone who says they've never seen an attractive woman from a certain race? There are not just attractive but beautiful women of all races even if you just go outside, not to mention in the media.

I got about 10 posts into that thread before I bailed.
Some folks need to actually get out in the world.

How is he still around? Like how? Maybe I should go join that NBA GAF off shoot.
I'm still mad over a girl named Starshima I serviced when I worked with At Risk Youth for the city of San Jose. She signed her name with the symbol star and then shima, and had a gold glitter gel pen on hand she used for the star.

why we needed another word for ho we'll never know....
It's so inefficient. It has 'ho' in the acronym.
Dumbest word to catch mainstream awareness in a while. Far worse than yolo.

yolo wasn't even that bad though, just an abbreviation of a phrase people commonly say.

Unless you are white I don't think that applies. The OKCupid stats are mind-glowingly great imo. They show what happens when you give people free reign over which race to contact.
The only group which exclusively look for the same race is white women. According to their stats black men are also significantly more likely to reply to contact from an asian or white women than a black woman. Black men also have the lowest % of people who say that they would strongly prefer to date within their race.

I'll never understand skintone as a priority with looks. Ugly and beautiful comes in all shades.

That's how I feel.
100% agreed.
I used to be a heavy participant in these threads, but honestly I don't see the point anymore. I spend all this time arguing my points, and the ignorant double down on their ignorance while I'm left wondering why the fuck I just wasted a few hours of my life.

I feel like people who think certain features exist solely with one group just aren't in diverse places or know tons of mixed people. Growing up in the Bay Area I saw all kinds of features with all kinds of skintones. This diversity is rarely reflected in the media.
I find certain features hot and I've been around people or actively looked to see that the physical parts I find attractive are not limited to a particular race or skintone.

you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
I think this is a major point that is kinda being ignored on both sides of this argument. You have already sheltered people opinions being reinforced by what the media tells us is the standard of beauty.
That being said yeah some of those comments are straight indefensible.

Dat non-specific sometime-between-December-and-March-I-don't-know release date.
that summer 3ds launch window. smart idea
6th gen water starter.
That Pokémon theme was pretty good. I hope the music is more quality than quantity this time around.
Yep. I wouldn't have double dipped if they released at the same time. Now I'm getting both and I ain't even mad.
Greninja being included is definitely a surprise. It wouldn't have been in my top 20 guesses. Slick move, Sakurai.

They didn't throw competitive players in the bushes this time. The netcode better be good! 
This looks like a lot of fun.
Namco put Steve Fox into Little Mac. I'm putting the beats on anyone using that overrated ass fire type starter, with Lucario. Dragonite was better than Char's punkass.
Word. All I saw was that it had a teleport, projectile, ragnarok, and a divekick. Namco bringing Marvel fuckery to Smash Bros.

At Target you can get a WiiU 32gb, Mario Bros U and $50 giftcard for $300.
If Smash doesn't ship until 2015 I'm gonna get one hell of a deal.

Can't wait for that $150 wii U that I can buy "for my daughter."
Anyone have a good idea on where the line between self-promotion and chronicling a venture on gaf is?

For glory mode is gonna get a lot of cats caught up.
I guess that means that the not intended play argument goes out the window too.

Nintendo is better at Mega Man nostalgia than Capcom is.
By Christmas they will give you one for buying 10 dollars worth of stuff.

Been a megaman fan for so long....this made me actually want to get a Wii U. For real.

Will the Wii u even be alive by the time that version comes out.
So I just found out I have a shitload of half uncles/aunts I've never met and probably never will.
See, the whole American stereotype about black women having children from multiple fathers (that probably isn't remotely unique to black women in America) never really hit me personally. My generation of the family is pretty much all full siblings and stable marriages. My parents and grandparents generation however is another story. I've already accepted that I'll probably never meet either of my biological grandfathers.
Anybody else ever actually tried to investigate shit like that in their own families?

The Wii U has been shot by the colt, beheaded by the first blade, AND had the remains salted and burned. The units on shelves are just echos of the past.

Bro, my dad discovered his mom, wasn't him mom when getting a passport for a cruise. Dude was like 35-40. Found out that his "cousin" was his mother (his dad was his dad tho... awkward.), netted me about 8 more aunts/uncles.
That shit seemed to happen a lot one generation back.

Yep, that hush hush okey-doke
That's why it's always so funny to me when people talk about moral decay.
Got two aunts with children by the same man on my mom's side, too. I found that out like 5 years ago, and my mom was like, "oh.. you didn't know?"
FUCK NO, I DIDN'T KNOW.
