That's the very definition of a blatant racist view.
my thoughts exactly.
As for the second quote, wow, what a sense of entitlement.
the poster later clarified that she was asian, and that she found black women attractive, so her statement obviously wasn't racist. whut? so you're only saying that half the black population of the entire world is intrinsically unattractive, not all of them, so it's not racist. okay.
later, though, she wrote a comment saying maybe it had been racist and since she'd been hurt by racism herself it was scary to think that maybe she could be racist too and seemed generally like she might have actually been thinking about the conversation. this was part of a thread that's since been deleted. but yay.
re: rec: i was recced once when calufrax started but that was a while ago now. that's two thirds of my posted stories covered, hurrah. the last one is so not worth reccing so i'm quite satisfied.
