Dating applications can allow users to fall into their own racial biases while searching for a partner, a new study says.
But in their study, researchers from schools like Cornell University say the sexual racism that plagues apps like Grindr, Tinder and Bumble can be stamped out with a few simple changes. The end goal, the study says, is to promote more diverse pairings on the dating sites.
Jevan Hutson, lead author of the study, said in a press release from Cornell University that its really an unprecedented time for dating and meeting online which requires a more thorough look at how we can prevent discrimination on these dating apps.
More people are using these apps, and theyre critical infrastructures that dont get a lot of attention when it comes to bias and discrimination, he said in the press release. Intimacy is very private, and rightly so, but our private lives have impacts on larger socioeconomic patterns that are systemic.
Over the years Ive had some pretty harrowing experiences, Keodara told The Guardian. You run across these profiles that say no Asians or Im not attracted to Asians. Seeing that all the time is grating; it affects your self-esteem.

Yup
What a sick joke.
Every white guy I know thinks that many, many Asian women and Hispanic women are desirable.
On the flip side of that coin, most white guys I know, including me, are not generally attracted to Black women.
And THAT fact - white males not generally attracted to Black women - is what this whole “diversity dating” scam is all about.
I am becoming more and more convinced by the day that hard leftists in the universities and their complicit media conduits are teaming up in a kind of “social experiment” on the typical, rank-and-file American public. I call it a “social experiment” because there is no single word for this concept, as I am perceiving it, but essentially it is as follows:
one part trolling,
one part testing societal boundaries,
one part intentional and targeted desensitization,
one part undermining traditional values,
one part self-loathing, and
one part hetero-normative hatred/revenge.
I don’t know what you’d call this, but when I see a story like this, or the one a couple weeks ago in the Atlantic about how white parents should not make decisions regarding their children where the child’s well-being is the primary consideration, you have to stop and ask, exactly what is going on here?
EXACTLY!! The blacks have nothing to lose.
“Do black people tend to date other black people?
Do Christian people tend to date other Christian people?
Do conservative people tend to date other conservative people?
Do cat people tend to date other cat people?
Do young people tend to date other young people?
Seriously, what is with the fixation on all things “white”?
It’s like these white-fixation people are racist or something.”
So very close to the exact words I was going to use.
Mixed as in "mixed race" or mixed-up as in "man and man" or "woman and woman"? And let's not forget TV shows where the black man walks away from his black wife for a white MAN. Of course, she then "picks up the pieces" with a white guy of her own.
That is literally the goal.
Democrats are evil.
I understand. For religious reasons, I’d be upset if any of my daughters married someone not Jewish. Well, they’ve all married Jewish men.
Of the six, one married a Sepharidic guy who parents were from Bagdad and another married a Jewish guy whose mother was Ashkenazi and father a black American convert (who also happened to be a doctor). Grandkids are kind of khaki.
The one I like the least is straight from the former Soviet Union, and blue eyed and black hair. Women swoon over him, which I told my daughter would be trouble. Hasn’t happened yet, but I have my eye on him.
“There is a website called BlackPeopleMeet.com that I see advertised on television all the time.
So I suppose the PC Police are going after them??”
No, but they think the police are.
Similar interests are kind of important. If we hate each other’s music or slanguage or if your date hates bowling or classical music..or your race in general.. could be a issue?
When I read this kind of thing, I seriously want to kick these people right in the "back hole".
They are seriously problematic.
They were portrayed in the move as separate groups just so you know.

Someone on a dating site who prefers to date a certain type - that isn’t her - affected her self-esteem and was a harrowing experience for her?
Can’t she simply shrug it off and search for someone who IS interested in her type? I’m sure there’s someone for her.
Unreal.
not looking to date!!! But if i was, it would not be with black men. or asian men. Or women, lol.
Most races prefer their own race.
“Interracial marriage is really being pushed in the media. White man married to black woman is something you hardly ever see, but if you watch TV you would think its a common occurrence. And its hardly ever an Asian woman or man with a white person, but there are certainly more white men married to Asians than there are white guys married to black women.”
Statistics show that black male/white female pairings are the least successful long term. Asians and whites are the most successful mixed pairs. In both cases the offspring are not white so thats why the media promotes them.
I demand as a height challenged male that dating apps remove height information and delete accounts that express a man meet a height minimum. My self esteem has been battered by women posting that they want a man at least 5’8” or taller.
