If everybody's a bigot, nobody is.
Omnisexuality would mean you can't discriminate between ugly and attractive peopleAnd since ugly and attractive is subjective, discriminating who you date or not is not bigotry
Physical attractiveness does play a role in relationships
Not wanting to fuck someone with downs syndrome isn't bigotry. It's borderline rape if you fuck a mentally handicapped person.
Quote from: Dietrich Six on June 25, 2016, 11:42:23 AMNot wanting to fuck someone with downs syndrome isn't bigotry. It's borderline rape if you fuck a mentally handicapped person.There's many other examples of things I wouldn't fuck that I feel a twinge of guilty over.Obese women, blonde women, women with fake breasts, women with too many tattoos (like, more than 3), women who wear too much makeup, women with annoying voices, etc. etc. etc.Just stupid little things that probably shouldn't matter and probably have nothing to do with whether they'd make a good romantic partner or not. It sounds a lot like bigotry and prejudice and discrimination to me.
Not fucking people isn't bigotry. Denying someone as a romantic partner because of their looks when it's clear you're compatible is kind of shitty, but it isn't bigotry.People are programmed, you don't blame a dog for chasing squirrels do you?

I'm just describing behavior.I don't believe that bigotry necessarily connotes deliberation or malicious intent. It can be involuntary. Am I wrong?
Depends on your reasoning. If it just comes down to subconscious preference then no you're not a bigot but if it's because you think blacks are nigger monkeys then yeah you're bigoted bro
I don't think not wanting to be with someone because they slurp their soup is bigoted; a relationship isn't a job, you're going to discriminate. But I think the issue here is the contention that discrimination always means bigotry. I'd say that isn't true. Bigotry connotes a degree of intolerance or hostility. It may involve discriminating features when deciding whether to be with someone, but that's a long shot from saying that you won't stand in the same room as them because "x and y".

African facial features are not attractive and I also don't want no ghetto queen in my house.
Quote from: MyNameIsCharlie on June 25, 2016, 10:19:46 AMI've met people who believe this. If you're not willing to have sex without preference, then you're racist/sexist/homophobic/Transphobic/fat-shaming etc... My belief is that it's the same thing as we find here with anti feminist posts. It comes down to entitlement. The current generation truly believes it is entitled to sex. No one is willing to work for it. Almost no one, anyways. So, you sit on tumblr or a gaming forum and bitch how you got friendzoned, fat shamed etc...i think you've completely missed the mark, actually--i don't think it's about entitlement at allfor some people, maybe--but certainly not everybody who has asked this questionmy point is, it doesn't matter how "hard" you work; i will never want to have sex with you if you have down's syndrome--EVER! or anything else that i consider undesirablein a way, i think that's kinda fucked up

OT: You're not a bigot if you don't want to fuck black women, but you are one if you deny an aesthetic black woman sex when you want to have sex due to the fact that she is black.
]you don't think there's a kernel of truth to the statement?i think it's just human nature to be bigoted--it's only a problem when you start imposing your will on other peopleLike, I don't find black women sexually attractive. There's no logic behind it; I just don't. I think it would be fair to say that I'm bigoted, not that I can necessarily help it, nor should I be expected to. But it's still a prejudice that I have, and it's a little worrying.
