(Male/White) Is it a bad idea to try to imply I'm open to interracial matches

I've been thinking of including a line like "Firm believer love is colorblind" or some other way to indicate openness in my profile, but I don't want to come off as a creep. It's a balance point I'm not sure on. I don't date only for race, I try not to fetishize in a weird way, but I do find women from other ethnicities (literally all non-"white" ethnicities, black, asian, indian etc) are just more attractive to me as a baseline.

I'm not into race-play, I know some men are into the idea of an Asian girl because "they're subservient" or have some power fantasy about dominating black women, that's definitely not me. Maybe it's an attraction to novelty or the "exotic" since I grew up in extremely white communities, but psycho-analysis aside I view it as a preference in the same way some men like blond women. It's also not a dealbreaker, most of the women I've dated have been white and I certainly wouldn't turn down a good match on the basis of ethnicity.

So I suppose the question is: is there a tasteful way to say this, or should I just drop the idea?
