Lots of people do seem to have 'types' and physical appearance is part of it. I never have so I can't personally relate, but I've had white girlfriends who had a thing for Mexican and Latin men. I think it might have been the language lol.

I think the creepy part is when its about a stereotype... submissive and docile, macho and ... whatever else, etc. I don't understand the looks thing but it seems to be the rule more than the exception, so..
