I must say that I am one of the few black men that have gone outside of the racial boundaries to find love. Not that I do not think that black women have what it takes to make me happy however, I have been experiencing more than normal problems with the racial mentality.
I find that each racial origin of people has a distinct character trait no matter what environment that they grow up in their is always a similar trait that presents itself and there is one that I find attractive in Caucasian women. Yet for some obvious reason only most white women go for the thuggish abusive black men maybe I am wrong but as an astute observer I have found that those are the few relations that I have had the opportunity to observe. Why is it that the majority of white women refuse to venture outside of their race in order to see if it will work? I do not believe or hope that in 2009 there are still racial feelings of contempt between our cultures and race! Let me know someone please

In short, yes there is still racisim in this country.

This is a loaded question! I will tell you this; I am the administrator of an inactive interracial forum. There is no one way to ever answer questions regarding race relations and especially those that have to do with dating. Bare in mind, anything you hear about this subject is all opinion, including from me. If you ask 100 different people, you'll get 100 different answers.

All I can say is, perhaps you're looking in the wrong places and/or for the wrong women. Internet dating is generally more difficult to find the interracial thing IMO. When you do find someone whom you have a mutual attraction to, she's usually a million miles away! I generally date interracially almost exclusively (no real reason, just what I'm attracted to most of the time), so trust me I understand the frustration.

Don't worry about those who may not be interested in you, just move on. This is what we would do in any other dating situation and I think this is the key. Don't look at it as an interracial relationship. Rather as just a relationship between two people. Sometimes I think we can be our own worse enemies in these situations.

Trust me....they are just as crazy as the brown, black, red, yellow, and tan ones. I go for the little green ones from outer space. There's less drama. And firmer breasts.

I don't think is about racism or anything like that .Some black mans are really hot ,but is all about who we are attracted to .You will find the right one if you stop looking so hard for her.

Why do we always have to have a gender topic?

Why can't it ever be a neutral thing?

And its just not black and white, yes pun intended. Many Asian cultures 'frown' upon relations outside of their ethnic group.
Japanese vs.Chinese. Korean vs. Vietnamese.
Even worse are those children fathered by westerners and left behind in Asian countries, they are the least of the least.

I've seen threads like this before & I agree with Gentoo... This is a loaded topic...& I think I'll stay the phuq out of it...

Because the man want's a white woman and he wanted NOW !

WHy limit it to white , If your gonna limit yourself , I say go all the way .Hire a sketch artist , and put out flyers that say if you look like this , I wanna date you

So it is about race as well?

That makes it worse

Well I am from Alabama and I have to say that unfortunately racism does still exist here and it's not just whites that can be racist trust me. I have many friends that are black and they frown on interracial dating as well! I know that if I were to date outside my race my family would forever shun me and I know that this would happen to many women I know as well if they dated outside their race. This is a subject many of my friends and I have discussed. Although we do not feel that it is right or even fair it is something we don't do out of fear. Good luck!

I can not answer for ALL white women so I will just answer for myself. I don't think that all white women would go for the "thuggish" type of black men who would be abusive to them...I think you just can not group all "white" women together.
As far as taking a chance and venture out of our race, I think it is a choice for each individual. I myself take A LOT of things into consideration before I even think about dating someone. The big thing I take into consideration is, how will my family feel. I have taught my children that there are no different colours when it comes to people, but lets be real...society does not see it that way!! My boys would NOT care who I dated...my small town, that would be another story!
I honestly don't think you should stop dating black women..why are you only willing to date white women? See, its all about race!!
Good luck

Why does it have to be a problem that has a blame laid on someone else, rather than the perp?

Dude, if you don't get results from one, try another.
It's not a racial thing or a class thing...

It's a preference thing, get over it.

Said it before, I'll say it again...
If "no"s were bullets, I'd be a spaghetti strainer

I agree. Some women might choose not to get in a relationship with a black man because they stereotype, or are racist, cant get past the cultural differences, or whatever. But you arent going to change how people think by making an issue out of it.

"Blackmail via guilt"

I LOVE BLACK MEN!
That IS all IM ATTRACTED TO!

I'm glad we ARE talking...but......we're STILL talking about "this"?
