CMV: There is nothing inherently racist about not being attracted to certain ethnic or racial groups

To be clear, not wanting to date a black person because of stereotypes about black people ("I think black people are XY") or opposition to interracial dating is racist, yes. However, not wanting to date a black person due to not being attracted to skin colour is not racist.   
Most people have preferences based on weight, height, face shape, etc. Most women would not want to date a shorter man.  Gay men are not attracted to women and lesbians are not attracted to men. Attraction is no more a choice than taste in food or art. I did not choose to like vanilla ice cream and chocolate cake whilst disliking chocolate ice cream and watermelon.  
So if not being attracted to black people or Asian people is racist, are gay men sexist?  
For my view to be changed, one would have to explain

* How not being attracted to a certain race is racist whilst being gay is not sexist
* How attraction to skin colour or other features is any different than attraction (or lack thereof) to weight or height.

Would you say that having had and still somewhat having 'white' beauty standards may cause people to have underlying biases towards dating certain races?

If say, black features, are portrayed less in the media as being attractive then people are less likely to find them attractive.

I would argue that that was racism of a kind, although not as blatant as other forms.
