Black men are able to look at a woman for who they are and not what they look like. Why can't white men?

It is a culutural thing. I come from Africa. I see with alot of my mates over here, they love a women with a bit of baggage on her. I am white and I have never really understood it either. I cannot say for the states, cause they are far from African!!!!! I could not date a large person either. Blacks over here dig it

I'm a 22 yr old black girl and i dont date black guys. I used to like them when i was younger, in my teens. But i find them very boring and not very intelligent and they dont seem very articulate. I find it hard to have a decent conversation with a black my age. Alot of them are about rap music, sex, and cars and nothing else. \nI find white guys more attractive and intelligent. I like their pale skin in private places!! White men are just alot more interesting to me. \n\nHowever I dont think white guys treat girls different to black guys, men are men regardless. You have to judge the individual on who they and how they behave. \n\nI agree that there are more white guys with black girls and they seem to be quite possessive. If i walk past a girl with her white man she give you evils lol. Like i care,the girls ive seen are uglier than me anyway. each to there own.\n\nI would marry a white man, my family are from jamaica and i will never on this earth date a jamaican man! Black men are a no no for me. As for sex, white men are far more gental and understanding.

Men are very visual creatures. If they see something they like, they look. Hell, women, look, too! There is no shame in that. The most important point of the matter is that even if he is looking at other women, he's going home with you!

BLACK WOMEN?  EWWW...GROSS!  KIDDING!  I think women of all colors are beautiful.  Personally, I have no preference for color.  It sounds corny, but it's what's inside a person that counts.

They simply don't see themselves as having any flaws and don't want to find any in their women, either. \n\nWhen asked about looks, check out the online personal sites. Most men will claim they are athletic or average frame when the picture clearly does not fit that range. Do they see it? Probably not because men are taught as children to have high self esteem and just deal with it. Girls are allowed to express what is wrong with them and in turn, continue to struggle with self-image. Maybe if guys were brought up in the same regard, they would start to think like women... \n\nI have always seen gorgeous women that men still find something to pick at... it baffles me!

Because a lot black men are intimidated by strong, educated sistahs. They equate light skin with a certain dumbness that makes them (the brothas) feel superior. \n\nThe ones who date solely white women do so because as a rule, white women are taught to fear black men, therefore, causing them to please these men in every way possible to keep them from becoming upset. \n\nOne brotha told me once that the reason he dates white women is that they have flat butts, which makes it easier for ..... <you-know what>.

I actually just read an article written by a black woman about how she was tired of men assuming she was just some big-lipped, big-butt sex object.  Whenever guys payed her compliments (especially white males) it usually had something to do with how they were "into her chocolate love" or "wanted a black girl to boss them around in bed" or something else racist and degrading.  She wished people could just tell her something nice without pointing out that she was black.  How about we just compliment people for who they are and forget their skin-color-stereostypes?  There are millions of nice things that can be said of all women, and each woman is different -- they are all beatifully and wonderfully made; they are individuals.

Same reason women can't understand men (although they often think they can).  The ways of the two gender's minds are seriously different.  There are any number of ways to prove that; it's just true.  So if you are in the habit of understanding someone by imagining what you would think or feel in a similar situation, it won't work across gender lines.  Too many differences, and the differences too hard to imagine.

Ok, I am black, I am a woman and I am 39.  \n\nHere is the thing, there are a TON of good men and I do mean BLACK men out here.  Its just that black women dont look at these particular guys.  They are not looking at Henry the mechanic, who is not the best looking guy in the world, but he is a REALLY a great guy.\n\nI truly can't say i have ever had a "bad" guy.  They were all different and all decent.  What they lacked in one area, they definitely made up in another area.  Sometimes you look at these beautiful women and these not so hot guys... and wonder, "what is that about".  Believe me, she knows. :)\n\nSynopsis:  If they stopped asking Thugs to be Good Men, and actually took the time to talk to the Mail man or the Mechanic, they would find one, right before their very eyes :)

I'm a white guy, and I can say with conviction that if a girl is good looking (black, white, asian, hispanic) I "find her attractive". But in general I think white guys are raised in sheltered environments and tend to stray away from black girls. A lot of it has to do with how you were raised.

Me: African-American woman.  1. Personally I'm tired seeing it...media tends to focus on black men with white women exclusively, this helps to send out the message that black men consider white women to be their ideal standard of beauty...for some black men, having a white woman helps to validate their status in life... however not every black man wants or feels the need to have a white woman on their arm. 2. I also find it very interesting how very little attention is given to relationships between white men/black women. Hmmm, what does this really say about society, and American culture in general?

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.

men have always judge women by how they look instead of how they are as a person. No one should be judge by their looks, you can be the ugliest person in the world and be the nicest person going or be the most beautifulest person and be the biggest a**hole.

OK, I'm not addressed (white guy here) but I'd date/marry any color woman if we clicked. It'll be interesting to see what sincere black males contribute here.

I'm trying to answer this question with an open mind and to also not sound racist, but I'm sure some people will get offended.  I have actually conducted research for this. Not for every person in the world, but a good number of people. For the most part, they are not taken seriously in society. When you see a white girl, you think of a whore who sleeps around to get what she wants. I have yet to meet one that isn't promiscuous. Being that black people are always willing to accept a "reject" or someone who has been "kicked out" of their own racial group, they try to fit in. Has anyone ever noticed that the VAST majority, not everyone, (because I'm sure there are going to be responses saying that they are not all alike), when you see a biracial couple, they tend to be rejects thrown together. The white girl is either fat, ugly, trailer trash, or has had a rough child hood. The black guy is usually one that does not want to work, has a lot of baby mamas, or a 50 cent wanna be. Don't get me wrong, I love the brothas. I was raised by a damned good one, married to a sexxy one, and am raising 2 handsome ones myself. It just seems to be that way. They feel as if they have to connect with someone, and black people are willing to accept everyone else, even though they don't do the same for us. \nI personally think it's stupid. I would never change my whole life and ethnicity to be with a man because of the size of his penis; or for any other reason for that matter.

I'll put it like this: People are gonna judge you no matter what. If he wasn't black and he was white SOMEBODY would find SOMETHING wrong with the relationship. All you can do is live your life and if you like black guys, go for what you know, ya feel me? I'm black and I love women of all races so you can ALWAYS holla at me :)
