Let's keep it 100 most women date men of their own race exclusively so that's totally moot. The problem I keep witnessing is too many black men don't give a single ounce of push back they let guilt take over. We've learned through feminism that no one is entitled to your time or your body
Yes and yes! I have long hair that I some times wear out like Colin Kaepernick does but less of a afro because I have softer wooly hair so mines just falls down. I could never get my afro poofed out... it just eventually keeps falling down. lol.
I think a lot of people view the opposite sex of their particular ethnic group as “their” men or women. It’s not unique to African-Americans, but I find it absurd in any group. The genitalia of another are not community property. I understand the impulse here, because much of the US black experience is about group bonding amid shared suffering, but I don’t think my emotional life must reflect this. I can also fight against oppression without having my partner determined by this.
Very true. In-group members often threaten pariah status on those who don’t conform to status quo. That’s one of the reasons why I love heterodox groups so my “norms” aren’t being policed so much.
I have never thought of an Asian woman dating a white man of stealing “my man”. Men are individuals, I need only one of them, the rest are free to put their dicks wherever they want.
about a year ago ,i was having a conversation with this black dude . he told me his friends continuously rag on him for having a white wife. I felt sad for him that he would "allow" his "friends" to do that to me . I asked him what his wife's name was .......then i told him "that's who you married " you did not just marry "a white woman" . Me personally , if a friend of mine tried their hand at ragging on me about who i'm with , first time ,last time. but i do not have friends like this with that low of intelligence.
I never felt guilty about dating out. I'm the type who was ostracized from the communitah early on anyway by speaking complete sentences and liking sci-fi and comics. I loved watching the queens simmer when I made the scene with my white arm candy haha. I'm kinda over WW now, but they had a long run.
Funny enough I use to get teased all the time for dating white women. Now most of the dudes who use to make them jokes ended up with white girls. Looking back I realize everyone of them had single moms so God only knows the never ending guilt trips they had to suffer through that made them believe black women should be their only options. After thirty everyone settled down with a white chick. Ironically I didn't lol. Goes to show happiness ain't color coded
Exactly! I’d be suspicious of people referring to their spouse by colour. That’s not what it is about.
So true. I've never been concerned about who's in someone else's bed. Only my own. The same goes for who makes someone else happy. None of my business. I am, however, keenly aware of the adage that "the personal is political", something to which a lot of people adhere.
Feminism has not only "liberated" women it's liberated men, too. Now we are no longer responsible for random heaux and owe them nothing. Always funny when feminists say you're supposed to put on your red cape for the same women who say men are trash and clutch their purse when you walk by. Nope you're on your own congrats.
