But I don't see how any of that even plays a role when it comes to dating. I can't believe you even think about stuff like that. If it feels right on an emotional level, do it. If it doesn't, don't. This isn't about demography, statistics or resources, for crying out loud.
"All you need is love". John Lennon, smart man, shot in the back, very sad.

Of course it plays a role. Culture is very important to some people. If your eligible dating pool was limited, then you would certainly care. And at this point, I have zero vested interest, so this is the time to think rationally.
