I guess my question to you is then- where do we draw the line? If you see how our culture treats race and beauty, then where is the point that we do sit down and ask these questions?

I also think you and anon from above are thinking I am being way more harsh about this then I actually am, I understand racism is a loaded word and no one wants the term to describe them, but that doesn't change the fact that we all have our own prejudices and we internalize a lot that we aren't even aware of. It is completely possible that your preferences tie into where you grew up, who you were surrounded by, and what media you consumed. We are all products of our environment to a certain extent, and if your environment is full of prejudice do you really think you were completely immune?

I am not asking anyone to "interrogate" themselves, simply to, like you said, self reflect. I don't see how that is a bad thing.
