In apartheid South Africa, Asians were considered "honorary" whites. The more you know!

I have never seen an Asian guy/Hispanic woman couple, and I live in NYC, lots of Asians and Hispanics here. Maybe it's a west coast thing?

I find black women very attractive. Dark skinned or light, it doesn't matter to me. My parents used to joke when I was a kid that black girls were really into me. Personally speaking, I would date a black woman in a second, providing we shared similar interests. This is very possible, I was at the Afro-Punk festival…

I hit up record stores on a regular basis. There are generally very few women when I stop by. The ones that are there usually look hella pretentious or are to busy digging in the crates to care about anything else.

As a "Latin" hipster from NYC, I remember only receiving messages on OKC from Latin women. I always found this strange because Latin women in NYC (I can't speak for the rest of the country) tend to be pretty ethnocentric. I however am not ethnocentric. I love my cultural heritage but it doesn't define me. I love latin…

I'm an atheist who is dating someone who is nominally Catholic. I'm not a preachy atheist, but I wan't nothing to do with religion, even the Catholic church that I was raised in. I have suffered through many church services for the sake of my partner and her family. The amount of resentment that has built up over this…

It really sucks that men in general (not all of course) are not as well-adjusted or emotionally available as women (I'm speaking in generalities, I know). As a man who would be looking for a woman, I would probably not have to deal with that to the extent that you would. I guess when it comes down to it, for me, I…

What this young man wants in a female partner is both unreasonable and unrealistic. He is free to desire these qualities and to settle for nothing less but he is nevertheless deluding himself.

I don't disagree with what your saying here but what is the line between having specific preferences and being unrealistic/living in a fantasy? Is wanting to be with someone who has the same taste in music as you that crazy? I have a type, its pretty general in comparison (women who attended Art school/film school/…

Agreed, pretentious about niche shit, yes. Hipsters are pretentious about everything.

No I think I understood your point, women should'nt be on the look out for men 24/7. Especially when they are spending quality time with their friends. Thats what I got from your statement.

As a straight male who spends a fair amount of time in Bushwick, I have to agree with your statement.

It's their decision whether they chose to widen the net or not. Online dating does not work for everyone.

I'm not a Hipster, but hipster adjacent (not pretentious, white or asian). We need to stop throwing this term around so blindly. Some of these so-called hipsters are just nerds, who can be as unpretentious as the come. Myself included.

Great brunch spot and the most crowded corner in all of brooklyn on the weekends. Personally, I feel that if women who are open to receiving online messages were as open to being approached at a place like Five Leaves or just walking down Bedford Ave things would work out differently for them. And also don't come off…

I never wear torn skinny jeans, because i'm not white and it would just make me look poor.When I started dating my gf she lived 10 miles from me. Now she lives 7 miles away. These days I spend my weekends at her apt.

Do you mean Five Leaves?

Fair enough. She is aware of my feelings and that I am not dating her for her looks. She herself made mention of this when she met my former girlfriend. Objectively speaking (from my point of view), some of the women I have dated have been more conventionally attractive than others.

My take on this is: Men are all talk. They say they are only willing to date "10's" but this is not the reality. Men dont only date women with perfect faces & bodies. My gf is average looking at best, but my prior girlfriend was so very conventionally attractive. My point is that I fell in love with my current gf…

I'll put it this way, she approves of these issues when it comes to other people but not for herself. She thinks premarital sex is wrong (but still engages in it on occasion), she would never get an abortion herself under any circumstances, she must be married within the church (even though she's not a practicing…
