I am in London which is a very mixed cultural and ethnic city. Colour is just not an issue here for me - as a white, older, bottom, stocky bear I like a top who likes me.
What I have noticed is that many guys (here at least) who are attracted to my type tend to be from non-white non-Anglo Saxon background. That can be say Spanish or Italian or East European or Middle Eastern backgrounds as much as Carribean or African. It may be off topic to say, but I have wondered if the still strong "thin white hairless (or gym bunny) youth worshipping" endemic in so much of the traditional gay scene in UK and (I suspect) USA is a factor here - with people from other cultural backgrounds less focussed on that "ideal". What do others think?
