TL;DR
Racepill studies use obfuscating language and graphs to conflate white women not dating interracially with ethnics having a disadvantage.
Claim #1 (Status: Debunked)
Truth:
Exclusion rates for same race partners are low for all races except for Asians. (Figure 1, bottom row)
(Figure 2) Shows there is a 58% preference for white men in a sample taken from American women. This fails to mention that Whites are the majority and therefore there should be the most preferred because of homophily. In other words, of course 58% of women prefer white men, because at least 58% of women sampled are white and prefer same-race partners. In fact, White people are preferred less in proportion to their population 72% vs. 58% whereas Asians are prefered 8% while being 6% of the population.
Claim #2 (Status: Debunked)
Truth:
Asian men are accepted more often by Asian women than White men are accepted by White women.
Asians are accepted less by different raced women, but likewise other races of men are accepted less by difference raced women with the exception of WMAF.
Claim #3 (Status: Debunked)
Truth:
Proportional to the Asian population; "11 times less likely" is a proportionately good response rate considering Asians were 6% of the U.S. population (at the time of this study) compared to whites being ~72%. [72/6=12] The expected response rate is 12 times less likely, meaning when comparing two Equivalent men, the Asian actually performed better than the white man in this experiment. Part 2 has a low sample size and uses less objectively equivalent men, hence the title "Comparing white and Asian friends" instead of "Comparing two top models".
Claim #4 (Status: Elaborated, defunct)
Truth:
There is no accounting for race in this study, except for Indian women not replying as often to Indian men. The composition of the female respondents race is otherwise unknown, therefore the information is only as useful as the statement "Indian women do not prefer to respond to Indian men as often as expected" given this information likely comes from a global data set of OkCupid users, it may not be indicative of a woman's overall dating outcomes, Indians in India must still date Indians. Whites being the preferred race is likely a result of homophily and comprising a majority of the OkCupid user-base.
Claim #5 (Status: Debunked)
Truth:
I won't belabor the same point repeatedly, this graph is probably identical to the general racial composition of the individuals studied. Implying racial homophily which is not equivalent to being desired beyond expectation.
Claim #6 (Satus: Debunked)
Claim #7 (Status: Debunked / Elaborated)
Truth:
Claim #8 (Status: Debunked)
Studies Source:
I did not mention every link under the [Race] index. I examined those that were important/relevant to dating success and left out the rest for the sake of brevity.

Claim #1 (Status: Debunked)
Women are more racist in online dating, and 92-95% with a "preference" exclude any ethnic men
Truth:
Exclusion rates for same race partners are low for all races except for Asians. (Figure 1, bottom row)
(Figure 2) Shows there is a 58% preference for white men in a sample taken from American women.

Claim #2 (Status: Debunked)
Women are more racist than men in speed dating, and find Asian men least physically attractive
Truth:
Asian men are accepted more often by Asian women than White men are accepted by White women.
Asians are accepted less by different raced women, but likewise other races of men are accepted less by difference raced women with the exception of WMAF.
Claim #3 (Status: Debunked)
White men get 11-14 times as much interest from women on Tinder vs. equivalent Asian men
Truth:
Proportional to the Asian population; "11 times less likely" is a proportionately good response rate considering Asians were 6% of the U.S. population (at the time of this study) compared to whites being ~72%. [72/6=12] The expected response rate is 12 times less likely, meaning when comparing two Equivalent men, the Asian actually performed better than the white man in this experiment.

Claim #4 (Status: Elaborated, defunct)
Women reply most online to white men and least to Indian men
Truth:
There is no accounting for race in this study, except for Indian women not replying as often to Indian men. The composition of the female respondents race is otherwise unknown, therefore the information is only as useful as the statement "Indian women do not prefer to respond to Indian men as often as expected" given this information likely comes from a global data set of OkCupid users, it may not be indicative of a woman's overall dating outcomes, Indians in India must still date Indians. Whites being the preferred race is likely a result of homophily and comprising a majority of the OkCupid user-base.
Claim #5 (Status: Debunked)
Across America, women most desire white men, followed by black, Hispanic, and Asian men
Truth:
I won't belabor the same point repeatedly, this graph is probably identical to the general racial composition of the individuals studied. Implying racial homophily which is not equivalent to being desired beyond expectation.
Claim #6 (Satus: Debunked)
Women enforce stricter racial requirements than men, advantaging primarily white men
The same point about racial homophily + Asian men and White men are equally desired by Asian women. "Advantaging primarily white men" is a small advantage given that there are two races that have a preference for white men, but Asians are a very small percentage of the total U.S. population and have an equal preference for Asian men. The operative point being Racial Homophily is more important than being white, and gives no advantage over Asian men, only an attraction equivalent. The non-operative point being correct, that women enforce stricter racial requirements, however.It was found that black women generally displayed the strongest racial homophily, Hispanic women showed a weaker level of racial homophily than black women, showing a preference for their own race and whites, white women displayed strong racial homophily and a small preference for Hispanics, and Asian women showed a preference for both their own race and white men. Thus white men were the most likely to be contacted by women in general.
Claim #7 (Status: Debunked / Elaborated)
Women who don't express a 'racial preference' in dating behave the same as women who do
Truth:
White women choose white men, this is expected, the graph is misleading because this information is omitted which the subject would have to assume that "Women's First Contacts of Men Based on Male Race" does not exclude different raced women because that information is relevant to the conclusion one could make from interpreting this data.One analysis they performed was to specifically investigate whether those who stated a racial preference behaved any different from those who did not. To maintain a strong sample size, they restricted their analysis to Caucasian members' messaging behaviors.
Claim #8 (Status: Debunked)
Racism in dating is stable or worsening, not improving, over time
Truth:
The above information is based on the following quotesOkCupid analyzed racial dating data from 2009 and 2014 to evaluate if racism in dating is changing. They found that although people reported they are more open to dating people of other races over that time frame, racially motivated behaviors actually intensified.
Thus while it seems apparent people are becoming more interested in portraying themselves as less racially motivated, this is not manifesting in any changes to their actual dating behavior. If anything, their underlying racism has intensified.
One must wonder whether it is preferable to suffer racism that is openly acknowledged, or to falsely be told racism doesn't exist but still suffer from it anyway.
When you actually look at the source provided
- OkCupid users are certainly no more open-minded than they used to be. If anything, racial bias has intensified a bit.
- One interesting thing is to compare [users' racial behaviors] with what those same users have told us about their racial attitudes.
- Answers to match questions have been getting significantly less biased over time [i.e. "Do you strongly prefer to date someone of your own race?" and "Is interracial marriage a bad idea?"]
- And yet the underlying behavior has stayed the same.
In other words, women prefer their own race, but when interracial coupling is concerned, Black and Asian men are penalized.women
– all women preferred men of their own race
– but they otherwise penalized both Asian and black men
