with pretty eyes
with no kids
etc.
Where does a person "cross the line" so to speak from simply having a preference to marginalizing lighter or darker skinned folks? If I prefer to NOT date a brotha that wears locks, am in some way marginalizing that aspect of black culture as well?

I'm not really sure where one crosses the line and see all sides to this, but I think it is unfortunate that we cannot have a preference like everyone else, without being accused of having self-hatred.
