However, an important distinction has been discovered: you can be criticized for being racist in your sexuality.
Christian Rudder, co-founder of OKCupid, looked at data on online dating — who people messaged, who they matched with, who they responded to, and so on — and found a few patterns. "There is kind of a systemic racial bias pretty much in every dating site I've ever looked at," he said. "We found that 82 percent of non-black men have some bias against black women. … And Asian men get the fewest messages and the worst ratings of any group of guys."So now if you want to be virtuous, you really need to be sexually active with people of various different "races." Tell your spouse it's in the service of morality.
If this follows the pattern of other innovations in civil rights, we will next hear that we are to be criticized for being selective based on our preference for same- or opposite-sexed partners. To be a really moral person, you need to sleep with everyone equally.
What could possibly go wrong in such an enlightened system?

This isn't really anything new. It's been part of the whole "revolutionary" mindset since, well, the French Revolution.
Smash monogamy -- because people in loving families don't bother with this nonsense.

I remember a time when dating outside of one's ethnicity - particularly blacks - was distinctly taboo within American, and a vast majority of W. European, society.
Now it's a requirement for enlightenment?
Talk about pendulums and swinging.
Oh, and four different verifiers to post a comment?
Holy moly!
Sorry if Blogger is becoming painful. I leave open the option for anonymous comments, which might make it easier.
I like the fact I can comment with out having to have some internet identity.
Maybe they record everything anyway , but I am absolutely sure that google records every single ,post, search and everything else one does using their "service".
Very "Brave New World"-ish. However, I wonder if the selectivity goes the other way as well. For example, I've read that on average black women are the least willing to date outside their own race. Does that make them the most racist?
Oh, and it usually only takes me one verifier. When it takes more, I assume I've not answered the way the verifying software expects me to.
In answer to Tom, yes, yes it does. And they're pretty up front about it too. A relative found that out.
Blacks not dating outside their tribal culture is similar to what happened to white culture under the dominion of Democrat aristocratic slave lords.
That kind of xenophobia is just what people catch when they obey the Left's orders. Which in the past, were just slave lord orders from Democrats, but they grew larger. The ability to feel superior about themselves is a result of how inferior they are in actual competitive rankings. By keeping blacks down, the white aristocrats could justify their own personal vices and virtues as being the result of patronage and breeding and good culture. Noblesse oblige even. Blacks in Democrat ghettos and fiefdoms have lived there more than long enough to develop that unique xenophobia and sense of personal inferiority that is the bread and milk of the Leftist plantation.
