Similar to being attracted to men, women, mostly men, or mostly women, people can be attracted to certain races over others. It's hardly racist to be inclined towards liking the aesthetics of a particular color or complexion more than another. And there's been plenty of studies done on the matter.

In that first photo you bear an uncanny resemblance to the actor Christian Kane. (This is a good thing, BTW.) As for me... I am 21 years old, female, Caucasian. I'm 5 feet 5.5 inches tall, which everyone tells me is about average for a woman my age, but I always feel short. (Possibly because I have lots of tall friends.) I could stand to lose some weight--mostly because I love food more than is probably healthy but also partly because the knee surgery I had 3 years ago makes serious exercise kind of a scary prospect for me. I have slightly wavy dark brown hair--when it's wet it looks black--that is currently cut pretty short to keep my head cool and because I don't like having high-maintenance hair. I wear glasses because my natural eyesight is utterly pathetic, but I like the way they look on my face; they're a style that kind of says "sexy librarian" IMO. My eyes are a medium shade of brown, and I tend to get freckles in the summer. My fingers are annoyingly stubby, and store-bought gloves never fit me right without alterations because the fingers are always way too long. Heh, I'm 5'6" and often find myself wishing I had a few more inches of height. My husband is 6'2" and has a habit of putting things on the top of the refrigerator where I can't reach them. 10 hours ago, Yata said: Ok after some time I find a good photo of myself: Reveal hidden contents What are my beautiful hands not enough ?

I might where it this Halloween just for that, even though I'm not much of a Doctor Who fan. It's a great coat, although the sleeves are a bit short. (I've got long arms)
Yata he/him Posted August 4, 2016 Posted August 4, 2016 @Daniyah in those two photos you seem two different people
KnightRadiant she/her Posted August 4, 2016 Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) By the way, Yata, you look like my uncle. Like, a lot... But it's a good thing. Since I can't find many good photos of myself, I'll just describe what I look like. I have shoulder length, dark brown hair. My eyes are bright blue, so I guess I'm a lighteyes. I'm not entirely sure how tall I am, but I think I'm 5'3 or 4... Ah shoot. I'm not very good at this. If I get a good photo, I might post it. Probably better than my bad descriptions. Edit: My hair is actually longer than shoulder length... Edited August 4, 2016 by KnightRadiant

Sunbird she/her Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 @Delightful Not to mention that regardless of how attractive you think someone is or which races/ethnicities you find visually pleasing, saying that to someone defies all conventions of politeness. 3
Guest Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Oh, well, fine. I'm a little jaded because in the real world that I live and work in, people make comments about skin color and race all the time that could be viewed as racist from behind a screen, but aren't really made with that intent. Lighthearted.
Patar he/him Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 I'll update as well, since my previous pic doesn't appear to be showing up. For me at least. Most pictures of me have some of my other friends in them, so there aren't a whole lot I can post. Here's one of me about a year ago. And here's one of me a few minutes after having my wisdom teeth removed! Normally I don't wear glasses, I prefer contacts. I'm also almost always wearing that red Deadpool shirt. 1

Sunbird she/her Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 @Yata Younger people can be aunts and uncles too. I know a young lady my age (early 20s) who has several nieces and nephews. 1
Kaymyth she/her Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Heck, there are people in the world who have nieces and nephews who are OLDER than they are. It's uncommon, but it happens.

Guest Cognizantastic Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 Here's my ridiculously young-looking self with a new pterosaur homie (he's kind of scary): Spoiler
Sunbird she/her Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 @Cognizantastic I love the expression on your face. And your shirt. And the pterosaur skull. You like awesome things. As for looking ridiculously young, I think it's preferable to look younger than your actual age than the opposite. (Although this might be a popular opinion only among adults. ) But if I had to guess from the picture you posted, I would guess you're somewhere around... 14 or 15?

Hmm, maybe it's not as bad as I thought. I turn 16 next month. I think I've just started assuming that I look very young, because of comments from the hospital. An actual conversation with someone signing in at the front desk... "You work here? You look twelve!" *chuckle and smile* "I volunteer here." "Oh. That's surprising. You look twelve."

The summer after my freshman year of high school, I participated in a marching band fundraiser at a rest stop where I helped run a concession stand of sorts for all the travelers passing by. I was 14, but people kept asking me which college I went to. XD
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted August 8, 2016 Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) I actually look surprisingly like Renarin. I have somewhat messy brown hair, "Clark Kent" glasses, (what my mom calls them), and fairly tall for an almost thirteen year old. I look mostly like this, just less animated-looking. Once I get a better picture, I'll post it. Edited August 8, 2016 by Assassin in Burgundy
The Invested Beard Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Okay so here's the face I'm currently bonded to. He's obviously not happy with me making him do this, but hey you don't choose your Beardspren, your Beardspren chooses you. Edited August 9, 2016 by The Invested Beard 7
