Why are interracial couples most often black men with white women and seldomly white men with black women?

I don't know if any statistics support the premise of this question, but what I've observed agrees with what you say.\n\nI think it has to do with the "power-dynamics" between men and women, and the perceived "concessions" made by each combination.\n\nBlack women were always "taken" (i.e. raped) by white men. White women were always "forbidden" to (i.e. "too good" for) black men. \n\nSo, except in the case of the *truly* open-minded, it is easier for a black man to pursue and enter into a relationship with a white woman, than for a black woman to condescend to give herself to a white man.\n\nFor the black man it can be seen as gaining something "desirable," while for a black woman, it is much more difficult, and might be perceived as, lowering herself, by "giving herself" to the oppressor.

must be where you live there are all kinds of black guys and skinny white or just right girls that are pretty here.But I see skinny white guys with big white girls more.Guys are smaller anyway,we have the curves for the birthing reason.

Speaking as a Black female I think there is a very strong double standard in our (African-American) culture.  Black men will date a white female in a New York minute, but cry foul the minute they see us with a white or any other man.  We tend to get hassled more by other Blacks for dating outside of our race.  Also, many (not all) white men are raised to appreciate a more Euro centric standard of beauty (blonde hair, blue eyes, big boobs, skinny body, small butt, etc); in spite of the "browning" of America this beauty standard still dominates.   Black females don't fit into that particular beauty standard so I think it's hard for some (again some not all!) white men to see our beauty.  I also think it's hard because of the painful past that Black women have with white men.  When white men do approach us, some of us tend to be suspicious of them.  This is just my opinion for why you don't see more  Black females with white males.  If you're really serious about interracial dating, there are websites that are dedicated to this.

I'm all about any interracial dating. The children always turn out beautiful. Not only that, there are so many beautiful people in the world, why limit yourself to your own race? What if you miss out on the man or woman of your dreams just becasue he or she happened to be a different race and you were too ignorant to accept that?

I had a boyfriend who was/is black.  We broke up but it wasn't due to that.  In the South where cultural lines are still packed with prejudice, it heightened our visibility; not only were we gay in the south, we were interracial as well.  I would be lying if I said it didn't have some stressful points, but all in all it was a good experience.  Oddly when I dated a Native American no one batted an eyelash.

The probability is low...I know from experience because i'm a black woman that likes white men but it's so uncommon...Just gotta ask and find out.

Where are you getting you information to be sure that this is true? Unless you interviewed and surveyed each and every Black man, White man,  and women of all races on that subject and got those answers that you are posting,  you are just generalizing what you see around you not actual fact. I live in New York and see quite the opposite of what you have seen. I have seen people all of different races going out with and married to Black men. I have a friend who name is Arthur that is married to a Japanese woman and a friend who passed recently, that was married to a Chinese woman and they have a son together. As far as Black men and Hispanic/ Latin women, I have seen plenty of my Black male friends married or  engaged to Latinas that  they have children with. I am wondering what area do you live at because where I live, it is really diverse and that is my truth.

I think interracial relationships are great I'm mixed black and white and my niece is mixed also.  You go for what you like color desn't really matter because at the end of the day every one is still the same on the inside and we all have the same problems only difference is the skin color and looks.

there's nothing wrong with interracial relationships... if people don't like it..tough... just remember the culture and religion are issues among people...and remember to just ignore the people that stare... people only hate what they don't understand... remember that... people got to learn that the worlds changing... they need to learn to accept that there are going to be gay marriages and interracial marriages

I was going to ask that too.  They are very rare, so rare that when you see it it really stands out.  I've dated black women and felt like everyone was watching, and I have a friend in LA that is married to a black woman and after 9 years he says it's always uncomfortable, especially around black men.  I can't say anything about the asian part but that you never seem to see at all.  Believe me, it's not because white men don't find black women attractive either.  I just dunno.

That is because of history.  There were many many court rulings on this.  No matter how small the percentage of black ancestry, the courts considered the person black.  This is a rule from Jim Crow times.  It doesn't make any sense, but in history, that's how things were done.  And the courts had to make such decisions because people had different rights depending on if they were black or white (before constitutional amendment).  For example there used to be laws against white & black people marring.  \nThe rule that mixed kids are considered black started in slavery, of course, any child born to a slave was a slave, even if the father was white.  This was done purposely, even, (without the women's consent most of the time).

I haven't noticed that, but there is a cultural aspect that says that black women are maternalistic meaning they are in charge in relationships which would put them off of paternalistic races such as whites, latinos, etc.  in life partners.

yes, I was married to a black man for 20 years.  I loved him very much but we caught hell from both sides white and black.  People were always trying to under-mind our relationship.  His family had problems with it, especially the females in his family.  My family at first was not happy, but when they saw him for who he was, we had a great relationship.  So, you can't force people to except your love of another person of any other color or country.  You both have to work on  your love of one another because there is always going to be hateful, mean people out there who are not going to be thrilled with your love and will say things and try to do things to end it.  People are just hateful.  But, I don't regret it.  My husband died and he was a good person and we endure a lot, but we loved each other and people saw that and pretty much had no issues with it.
