The authors of a new book are arguing for race-blind dating apps — and the removal of filters for race and ethnicity.

At the rate we are going, woke corporations will soon be requiring applicants for jobs and promotions to provide complete, verified sexual histories, which will be evaluated for the racial and gender diversity of partners. Monogamous people will be automatically excluded for being insufficiently diverse in their sexual histories and for showing dangerous hints of archaic religious commitments.

I haven't the slightest problem with a black woman,a brown woman or an Asian woman rejecting me simply because,*solely* because,I am of European ancestry. I wouldn't see it as "racist" in the least.

Human beings are hard wired to prefer their "own kind".

We have friends who purposely adopt black dogs because someone once told them that black dogs are more likely to go unpicked and later euthanized. This last one is part pit bull, huge, and scary as hell. Others have been sweet but this one really needs a 25-cent solution.

I thought the main point of dating apps and dating services was to help you find mates with whom you have the most in common and might be the most compatible, not just set you up with random dates. Birds of feather and all that.

Like I’m not being seen as the beautiful queen I am

Queen: translation: Obese

[WASCWatch]

“Beautiful Queen” = morbidly obese.

That’s the real reason. I could insert a very old joke about obese women, but I will rest restrain myself.

So, if I understand this, one shouldn’t allow one’s preferences to affect your dating choices? That doesn’t sound like it would work.

Then race should be removed from job and college applications too.

Racist, racist, racist. Everything is racist!

This post is racist.

no problemo ... just so long as political party affiliation and lib vs conservative check boxes are preserved ... those are pretty much the main filters anyway ...

I’d have a real problem with gun control if I got a mad maxine-type at the door! On the other hand I’d have an equal problem ‘view’ing a mad joy-type. How does color play any point here? I’m confused and my finger itches!

Is there a point at which they’d feel the their work was done? Ever?

No. They are psychopaths.

Just put cat filters on for everyone. Calico cats.

Ridiculous article

Swiping to the right must be banned...

"Like I’m not being seen as the beautiful queen I am"

This is a 53 year old negress??

She needs a cold dose of reality.

Wouldn't happen to involve this common kitchen item, would it?

We’ve gone from “let people love who they want” to “you’re not allowed to say no to the black/trans/nut”.

[tbw2]

This is the ultimate attack on sexual autonomy - if you’re not allowed to say no to the ugly black trans who demands dinner and sex.
