Men like women and women like men, why? Because they are different and opposites attact. Liking people of a different race is probably just an extension of that concept. Even if it is not race, people like people who are different from what they are used to. Although I like women of color (ie - not just black) I prefer american gals (any color) to english. Not sure why and even if I knew I wouldn't say because the britgals would probably carve me up for dinner!
