Damn still screwed! Mid sized feet, not a nobleman, and am "Italian" American.

    I thought the last sentence was describing her, not what she’s looking for.

    I think tagging people like @Asafum@feddit.nl gets a notification over to their Lemmy inbox, FYI.

    I've seen several dating profiles where they express their racial preferences so not much has changed here.

    No French, Italians, Spaniards or Hebrews need apply.

    It's jarring not because racism is gone, but because of how blatant it used to be.

    In my opinion, it's perfectly fine to have a preference for age, weight, height, facial features, personality, income, religion, intelligence, humor, etc. Racism is ignoring all of that and rejecting someone before you know a single thing about them just because of their ethnicity.

    I wonder if this worked for her. Surely there’s a record somewhere.

    According to a comment by editorgrrl in this r/TheWayWeWere reddit post, it is a joke.

    Life magazine (sometimes called β€œold Life”) was a parody published by graduates of the Harvard Lampoon.

    She could have said "no darkies, even if you are European". Then again, French certainly doesn't count. 🀷🏻

    Nothing wrong with having a skin tone preference, but I think it's dumb to put it in a dating profile. One, you'll turn people off thinking you're a racist even if you're not. Two, you never know. I've always dated super pale girls. Ended up with a dark Filipino. Who knows?
