col·or·ism
Human nature and personal preferences are normal and will naturally happen. We will see people with certain qualities that we like or dislike for no other reason than we either find them attractive or unattractive. Some people aren't particular and like the full spectrum of skin color while others are particular in what they like and don't like based on visual observations alone.

Where this all gets politicized is when you find racism present in a culture where the dominant culture tries to define what beauty looks like and forces their propaganda on the people. In those situations you must constantly scrutinize choices you make to see whether you have been manipulated or influenced into thinking a certain way, or if it's truly a natural preference based on your unbiased thought processes.
So, are you saying it is possible to have a skin color preference unrelated to white supremacy and colorism and just have a preference?
