An Appeal to the Community (country, quote)

[TheBig3]

So I have a question for you guys that I'd appreciate an honest answer to because its bothering the **** out of me.

I'm seeing the girl. She has some odd preoccupation with race (shes mexican) but aside from that we get along great and I really enjoy her companey. Heres the problem:

I mentioned today how she and I were talking once and she said "I could never see myself dating a black guy." I took it as prefrences like "I could never date someone who...listened to country music". But when I brought it up with a bunch of friends tonight, they said she was racist.

So now I'm ****ed. Is she? Is there something wrong with that? I mean at first I grilled her on it and said "well if I was black, would you not date me?" I need outsiders opinions that can speak freely. I also need a place where no one can make the connection. We're family, right MB? I'm hoping you guys can help me out.
