Greenleaves - I'm glad you're not racist either. It's a shame your mom doesn't realize skin color has nothing to do with character. Ted Bundy was an attractive white man, but he was also a serial killer.

I agree with the others about using caution when talking to men on the internet, especially those who want to talk about sex. If you meet in person, absolutely bring a friend (preferably one trained in martial arts, lol) and make it a public place.

NWTR - I agree we should all get along, but for some people it's difficult because they've bought into stereotypes. We can't truly embrace each other if all we see is an image of each other.
