Ethnicity or Chemistry: Which One Trumps in The Dating Scene?

The data showed that Asian women are the most preferred by all men except Asian men – who prefer Hispanic women.
Asian, Hispanic and Caucasian women prefer Caucasian men while Caucasian men are more likely to respond to everyone but Caucasian women.
Caucasian women are twice as likely to respond to Caucasian men than African-American men.
African-American men are more likely to respond to women of different races but receive three times more responses from African-American women than a non-black woman.

African-American women prefer all races over Caucasian men but are the least likely to get a response from all men.
Irene LaCota, spokesperson for matchmaking service Its Just Lunch backed up Fischer’s data. “We have seen a trend with younger men being more open to dating different ethnicities,” she said via email. “For example, young asian men are requesting to be matched with caucasian women.”

A new survey from It’s Just Lunch, a dating service for busy professionals, talked to 1,400 singles and found that your Super Bowl party is not a good opportunity for new romance.

While the Big Game is a huge social event, filled with beer, food and fans, don’t expect to get your flirt on. Here’s why.

1. Men Want To Focus On The Game, Not Love
This is pretty predictable, but could easily be forgotten by people who aren’t that interested in the actual game.
