When people state that they like all races, I immediately assume (yea I know most assumptions are the mother of all fuck ups), that the said person is into sports days, with the egg and spoon race, sack race etc, or athletics and the 800,. relay, 1500m etc. Then horse racing comes to mind.
There is only one race in humans....the human race. Unless they like aliens too.
Do people mean Ethnicity's and cultures?
Creed is not a word I'm familiar with either and for some reason, the word makes me feel uncomfortable. It's not a word I had really heard of until I joined here.
I'm probably being a pedantic fucker! |

I just say it because in general I never really look at race when it comes to attraction with women it does not bother me...
should I just start excluding certain races and say no thanks does not fit my "preference" in order to fit in? |

Obviously people are talking about lineage/heritage. Only the jokers pretend to assume it's about horse racing or egg and spoon races. Biologists define what race someone belongs to by their bone structure. Skin tone differs in all races |

Not according to biologists and geneticists. Race is just a word used to blanket label whole continents of people. |

A very laudable sentiment OP. However you are up against the fact that, for the majority of people, race can mean things other than what you have decreed.
I nicked the following from Wikipedia (I know I know, but it's better than nicking it from Stormwatch):
There is a wide consensus that the racial categories that are common in everyday usage are socially constructed, and that racial groups cannot be biologically defined. Nonetheless, some scholars argue that racial categories obviously correlate with biological traits (e.g. phenotype) to some degree, and that certain genetic markers have varying frequencies among human populations, some of which correspond more or less to traditional racial groupings. For this reason, there is no current consensus about whether racial categories can be considered to have significance for understanding human genetic variation. |

just the way of life how people see it, a lot of people won't see certain ethnicities of men or women.
it's their choice really for whatever reasons they have just best option is keeping a distance from them all together.. |

"It wouldn't occur to me to state a preference... I like people.
I like some people of different ethnicities "
I like the ones who aren't arseholes.
They can be green with polka dots for all I care, if they're clever and funny and nice then that works for me. |
