Is race really an issue when it comes to dating?

Yes! Especially for black women, now this is coming from personal experience, and there has been research. Black women are at the bottom of the pole when it comes to dating. I’ve also noticed that, most times, many men want their “preferences” to look a certain way. To be told, hey I’m not interested in you, because you’re black, is like a slap in the face. And I’m sure other groups have experienced this as well. It goes both ways as well, many women have their “preferences” And please don’t say, race isn’t an issue, because it is.
