I rolled my eyes at the topic of thread. It was clearly one started to stir up tensions. It drew in solid people though so all is well that ends well. I am all for open dialog. I stand by the copied tagline, however.

As for men with that view: The greater question is why do woman wish to throw themselves in front of individuals anyway????

Using Star athletes or celebrities as an example..... I wouldn't wish my friends of any skin tone on them! They may settle in to be something something in time to come but from what I have seen and I have seen a lot, Just enjoy the party and get the fuck out. You risk a multitude of disease and worse as it is.

I digress... I am sick of seeing woman of great value throwing themselves before the feet of men that don't want them for any right reason at all. Forgetting to take courage hold their value intact and carry on until the right man comes along. He will in time. Unfortunately many become so bitter and cynical by that point they chase his ass off.

I say just keep on keeping on. I say this as a woman who hasn't come across one to even date in the last year and a half. It is coming. I certainly don't look at woman in the afore mentioned category and think OOoooo that should be me! I am thankful not to be in the path of the man with twisted up jackass psychology!

This thread is very intersting. I like to read everyone's views. And I have to applaude those who voice their opinion even if it is controversial. Some I agree with and some I don't. But I like reading them all.

Intersting note: There has been talk on this thread that lighter skin is considered most attractive and ideal. Well I am a mix of half white and my father is a full blooded Brazilain...dark skin, hair, eyes...my mother is light skinned, brown hair and hazel eyes...I only started tanning this year and now I have a very tanned olive complextion...before my skin was quite fair and only slightly naturaly tan...now both men and women talk about how hot I look with a tan and how they love my skin color....in fact I turn black men's heads far more than I did when I wasn't tan...pretty much all different types of men white, black. latino love my skin the darker it gets. I look more exotic now when I tan and let my hair go curly. P.S. I even make way more money now at work now than when I didn't tan and straightened my hair. I guess my point is lighter is not ALWAYS considered sexier.

Plus I just find this interesting that many people on this board are annoyed with rich black men dating white women but I just find it ironic how these people love Prince and we are on a Prince website and he is like the poster child for rich, famous black men dating outside their race!

Yeah, does anyone care who the broke bruthas date?

Soulofmysoul said:

Hmmm well I have seen black women confront a black guy with a white girl once I don't think it was really rich he looked like a normal guy to me.

and my best girlfriend who is black who only dates white guys ran into many incidences where she was with her man and she heard black guys whisper shit under their breath and give her and her guy dirty looks so yeah I do think there are alot of ignorant people out there no matter what their social class.

Krystal666 said:

why does she "only" date white guys....curious?

I understand preferences because I prefer black men BUT I have dated others. But why the "only"...??

Rhondab said:

Because her father who is black molested her and her sisters and physicaly abused them too for years. She has alot of deep rooted problems. She has had sex with black men before but she finds it very unerving and upseting because it brings back alot of bad memories for her. She once told me every time a black man touches her sexualy she starts to get nervous and she can't relax when she sees a black man's hands coming twords her she said all she can think about is her father's angry hands voilating her body. It is really unfortuante and I feel bad for her

But hey all the white men she dates do treat her like the princess that she is so if it makes her feel happy then I really can't say too much to her.

IMO it's across the board - be it on tv or in the neighborhood. I'm guessing athletes & actors (rich folks) are being discussed b/c they're so visible to everyone & it's kind of a phenomenon w/ them, it's expected in a way. But if you're against interracial relationships you're gonna be just as pissed @ (insert athlete's name here) as you are the mixed couple sitting the next table over @ Chili's. I know y'all think you hit up on something though so roll w/ it

No, I was actually just making a joke.
S'ok though. It was for me anyway.

okey dokey.....

The only thing I don't like is when I see black guys treat white women like dogs. It makes me sick actually I see alot white girls put up with complete losers just because they are with a black guy and these guys really tear down the woman's self esteem and cheat on them and the whole works and it is funny because you just KNOW a black woman wouldn't put up with that nonsense...well at least the black women I know.

lilgish said:

Yeah, I did.
I got ya.

CalhounSq said:

Yep, same here. And some of these cats are three shades darker than me. I know brothas(family included) who won't touch a dark-skinned sista, but if she's with a white dude, they get all pi$$ed off. I'm like, "I don't want to hear it. You wouldn't give her the time of day if she was available."

How dark(or light) a woman is never bothered me(long as she looks good, stays fit, and doesn't nag). As I said before, I have my father to thank for that. He wouldn't allow any of that negative sh!t in his house. When I was very young, I made a stupid remark about a dark-skinned classmate, and he read me the riot act. His attitude is, f--- what society says, we're all beautiful.

Krystal666 said:

You KNOW that's right! None of my female friends(who make more than the dudes they date) would take that abuse. They'd throw the bums out.

Regardless of color, no one should put up with sh!t. If it's not working, just leave. Life is too short - why be aggravated?

Krystal666 said:

Black women are victims of abuse at the same rate as others. don't buy into the "black women don't take shit" myth.....


....If a man is abusive, he'll be abusive regardless of the race of the woman.

Also, I hope you hate to see ANY woman get mistreated...regardless of the race of victim and the abuser.

Rhondab said:

Ofcourse I do! But we were just speeking in generalizations here....

Krystal666 said:

well, I'm just saying even in a generalization about black women....we generally are the same as other women in these situations.
