It's funny how good night is another way of saying bye and good morning / afternoon is a way of saying hello. So...how does one formally give salutations in the wee hours (such as now)? Yes, I know about good evening, but it's more for the hours between afternoon and night, not night!

I digress. Alas, I start my mini rant. So, while doing a search for my ultimate woman (Weird Science movie reference), I came across the seemingly redundant ethnicity iterations overlapping each other. Well, there's French / German / Italian / English / Baltic / and Russian (not the kind between the mountains!). But, it gets better...there's Latina / South American / and Spanish. Yes, I am very aware Brazil is in SA and speaks Portuguese. In fact, remind me to tell you a great story about providers in Copacabana Beach or almost getting kidnapped in Colombia!

I know, I know, they're all different and we're all different, but the specific question is, are the hobbyists looking for a genre or specific nationality? Said a different way, are we really looking for Latvian providers or would a hot Russian be acceptable? Speaking of, I have been drawn for a while to the idea of a "White Russian" drink, but can't get myself to actually order it at a bar. "Excuse me, but can I get more MILK with my vodka!" Just seems like fire & ice to me (LOL).

And...just so the responses don't turn out to be geography lessons, consider to yourself, if you are specifically looking for a South American provider, would a Puerto Rican provider not do? Would a Colombian provider be classified under South American, Spanish, Latin, or the ever-encompassing all of the above?!

If you agree, please join me in my new undertaking to change the ethnicity tabs in the search options!

+1, Yoko. Very Well Stated!!! Additionally...

A true, traditional "White Russian" at the bar, has an equal amount of Kahlua as well.

Thus I'd define a "White Russian", hobby-wise as a threesome between the guy (milk), a Russian Beauty (vodka) and hot sexy girl of color (Kahlua).

CHEERS!!

Give the OP a break

As a non-white, I have my antennae up when I come across (unintentional or not) prejudiced comments, and I didn't get that vibe at all from the original post. I thought his point was that some of the "ethnicity" values/selections refer to racial traits or terms while others refer to nationality. It's a valid observation, and I agree that overlapping selections can sometimes muddy the search results.

If you look at this strictly as a question of search engine efficiency and accuracy, the OP's observations make sense. However, I think it's a lost cause to campaign for changes since: 1) culling the list to a broadly enough encompassing selection of values while both not inadvertently omitting key demographics and not stirring up racial politics would be a challenge; and, 2) retrofitting the existing database of reviews takes time and effort (i.e. money) and would require subjective judgements to retroactively classify each provider profile to one of the newly available selections.

Since the change being suggested is highly unlikely to come, then the OP needs to follow Yoko's suggestion and just widen, then narrow, his searches as needed.

The search is as accurate as what providers call themselves

I see quite a few ads listing exotic ethnicities like Pacific Islander, Caribbean, Peruvian... but when I see the pictures, I don't get the sense that these girls just stepped off the plane from whatever country they claim to be from.

In a way, it's just as racist to say that you specifically want a girl from Spain. Is there such a vast difference between Mexico and Spain that your dick will know it? There's such a wide array of physical features and cultural quirks within each country that I could claim to be a mix of Irish and South African, and I can promise you there is someone who looks like me living in those places.

"I'm in the mood for a Polish girl"
[search results show girls from Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Ukraine]
"FUCK THAT I SAID POLISH!"

C'mon, at some point it gets a little ridiculous. Otherwise why don't we replace "white" with:
-"American/White - Midwest"
-"American/White - North New Jersey"
-"American/White - South Florida"
-"American/White - Southern California"
etc, etc

Try to tell me they're all the same, I've dated girls from those various areas and let me tell you it's like a different ethnicity every time. This ain't the friggin United Nations, a little generalization isn't killing anyone.

Side note: White Russians are delicious. The Dude abides.

Who Knows Who Will Open That Door When You Arrive

I've seen ads for Latin girls claiming to be Puerto Rican, Spanish, Brazilian, damn depending on how chinky there eyes are will say there Latin and Asian mixed. Some "Ebony" girls go as far as to say there Brazilian, Dominican, Caribbean and even Indian knowing damn well there not.

What difference does it make as long as she's able to say "it feels good" "Gǎnjué hái bùcuò"
"se siente bien" "on chuvstvuyet sebya khorosho (my favorite...... Russian)" etc.

I'm Caribbean, but with my beautiful skin tone I can go for being French (Creole). I think I'll advertise that next week. Who will ever know? Wi Wi!

When I graduated H.S it was a requirement to graduate with 2 years of a second language, so depending on how old the provider is and IF she graduated H.S ( or with the help of Rosetta Stone), she just may know a second language well enough to convince you she is the ETHNICITY she is advertising herself to be.

Just My Opinion!

Smooches

Big Lebowski,

Damn man, I agree. At what point does it get ridiculous. You said it in a different way but we have similar messages.

Re: Yes, I Have Done Many, Many Searches Here

Yokozuna58,

Thanks for your reply. While I couldn't disagree more, I appreciate you sharing your insight on my topic of choice. I sure wish you had read through my message better before replying. Especially the part about redundant search options. I am not sure what line of work you are in but in my line, we strive to rid systems, processes and controls of redundancies. One of these I highlighted is the Spanish / Latina / South American search options.

Let's all be adults here and while I appreciate the feedback, your messages would be much better received and we would have better discussions if readers understood my message before posting drug, racist, or other easy, quick remarks.

So, let's try this again in simpler language: Am I being racist and saying get rid of Spanish / Latina / and South American providers? Am I saying group Latina and European providers because it's easier? If you think this, then I think you'll need to repeat a few grades. I am asking if anyone can give me examples that are far apart enough to have three overlapping options. AS A CONNOISSEUR OF FINE LATINA PROVIDERS, I can say it's annoying for me to have to repeat the same search three times to make sure I don't miss a provider categorized under a different heading. Get it?! Got it?!

And if you still don't get it, please enlighten us on the differences between a Colombian provider, a South American provider, and a Spanish provider. By the way, Colombia is in South America. By the way, they speak Spanish there. By the way, Colombian women are Latina.

Re: Give the OP a break

As a non-white, I can say there could not have been prejudiced comments in my OP. While I didn't (and don't see the need to) mention my background, I thought mentioning my world travels in search of beautiful ethnic women satisfied this. If it didn't, thanks for your co-sign. For the record, my OP was NOT a racist rant.

Merely observations in the search options. Perhaps you might be right in that the complexity of the project overrides the benefits. But I still have to comment that if complexity were removed from the equation, and if the system were redesigned, then I would do it with the enhanced efficiencies I mentioned in my OP. Specifically, to remove the "overlapping selections that muddy the search results."

Best,
