If he can't use your comb, don't bring him home.

When I was a little princess, I soooooo wanted to date as many races as I could. I used to ask my mother, "mother dear, what would be the consequences of bringing home a sexy white man?" and she would say, "coloured kids" (for all those that need the cultural education, 'coloured' in Malawi, Africa means MIXED. Not Black.) and so on and so forth... I'm happy she never discouraged me. When I came to The Land of Opportunity, I was amazed at how black men reacted when I first publicly kissed my first white squeeze (He was delicious looking. Don't judge me)... let's just say we broke up.
Over time I've come to only skid the surface of the communities that flat out DENY DENY DENY interracial relationships and the ones that are far kinder. In that skidding of the people who date outside their race I've found that people generally give the most outrageous reasons for crossing over....
"Black guys have Bigger Dicks" = Generally true, but my opinion lacks validity. It's not fool-proof. Let's just say the system has cracks
"Black guys are losers" = Losers rig every system boo. They come in all shapes and sizes... including same sex.
"Black women are too loud and shanaynay-like" = then ask yourself why you keep hitting on shanaynay-like women and stop bitching

What I do find is many black women who refuse to date outside the box. I myself hugely favor black men, but hell... if a pre-qualified guy of a different race hit on me I'd go. I mean, I don't think this is a problem (dating only one type of person) but I do find it problematic when people make a conscious decision to small minded-ness. To each his own I guess. Where you at Justin? Where you at Raizo? Hoolllaaa!!!

Another section of this is the extreme-ists. A phenomenon I've noticed with generally male af-americans. It's when this black male "BLACK MALE" is only hot for other races of women. I personally feel like being ultra-black (super sizing all the things black people favor) is always a compensation for something else. There's a difference between being a freedom fighting chocolate love machine, and wearing dashiki's or feeding off of non-black racial slurs twenty four hours a day or being super sensitive to all black issues. It always makes me think, what are you hiding? White porn? What are you compensating for? I have a feeling that if these characters relaxed a little bit, they'd find that nobody REALLY gives a fuck that they're dating someone who's not black, and if this third party person really is bothered by it, then boo-boo, you need to change your neighborhood and stop feeling guilty for nothing. What people have an issue with is all the contradictions... all the 'black love' that's invested elsewhere.

On another note, I mustn't lie sometimes I meet one of these "openly dating every race but mine's" black people and it hits my esteem a little bit. Then I pick up and think, if they're not attracted to they're own then they must have an issue with themselves that hasn't surfaced but is definitely manifesting. We all know what it is don't we? LOVE YOURSELF :-)

I find it funny when people say, "why not? men do it all the time!" Yea? and so do women. PEOPLE do it all the time. It's not like winning the olympics you know. I see WAY more black women dating other races than I see guys, but I'm sure black guys make up for their lack of serious-other-race relationships by overtaking black women in fucking other races. :-) What do you think?
