No doubt, the response to the original essay was well-intended. However, it is an over-simplification of the situation and overlooks Nikhil's main point. After all, he was not suggesting that all white women should be excluded from potential relationships, but rather that it might be wise to be more discerning in choosing potential partners. In other words, his advice was to select partners based on individual merits instead of making sweeping generalizations about an entire group of people.
The response ignores this fact and suggests that any exclusion of white women is a form of prejudice. This may be true in certain cases, but Nikhil was not advocating prejudice – rather he was suggesting that some would be wise to evaluate potential partners on a case by case basis in order to avoid disappointment. Furthermore, based on shared commonalities, interests, and values, there still could be potential strong connections and relationships between two individuals; however, such a connection should not be assumed merely on the basis of someone's race or ethnicity.
In conclusion, the disagreement with Nikhil is an unfounded criticism of his original idea. The essence of his essay was correct – judge potential partners based on individual merits instead of making sweeping generalizations about an entire group of people – and his conclusion stands: UrRong; it is wrong to categorically rule out any and all relationships with white women. Allow room for exceptions; there may be some you wish you had taken a chance on!
