  • Maybe, but I’ll tell you something. I never had much attraction to a race different than mine. However, I ended up living in another country for three years for work and over time developed a real attraction to a different race. I’ll say I was even more attracted to them than my own. I especially noticed this for a few months after returning to my own country. After a few years of being home, though I’ll say I have mostly reverted my preferences.

    I guess it just showed me that attraction can be very situational and likely the more prevalent race in a country often set the beauty standards.










  • The problem is actually old “liberal” hippies who refused to allow development of new housing for decades. NIMBYs as they’re called. I’d say the hippies are mostly gone, but the refusal to build housing remains. Go to any other major city in the country and there are usually cranes everywhere. Not in California. Tech bros did bid up the limited housing supply for awhile, but now that prices are easily $3-5 million, they’re even getting priced out unless they were a founder that got an exit or just lucked into joining a company at the right time – NVidia for instance.
