You appear to like white women

Matthew Barrett,

I’ve heard this from different women of color more times than I would like. I’m not entirely sure what would cause someone to make such a bold assumption, but it’s exasperating. Is it the way I present myself? Is it my diction? Why would my attraction to the opposite sex be limited to the racial identity of the individual, opposed to character? Ironically, I’ve never been in a long-term relationship with a white woman, nor is it a particularly exclusive pursuit that I seek when dating.
