stereotypical black man = thug from the ghetto. Stereotypes are stupid, aren't they?

I'll say that where I currently am (Ann Arbor) is an obvious choice. You can't assume anything about anyone here at first glance, and I love it!

Just to address it, yes, I am black, but many of my characteristics (The way I talk, the music I listen to, the clothes I wear, etc.) are usually deemed as white. However, the people (blacks, whites, and every other race) of where I live and attend college (DC Suburban Maryland) has shown for the most part disdain for the way I carry myself. The blacks here usually see me as a "betrayer;" and as for many whites, Asians, and Eastern Indians, I'm usually just ostracized because of me being black. Also, I really have a real attraction for girls outside my race (white, Asian, etc.), but apparently, black girls are the ones who are able to date outside their race easier. I just wanted to know what cities, or areas within a city, would be best for a black person who doesn't resemble the stereotypical "black man" would live after graduating from college (racial acceptance; interracial dating, marriage, and families, etc.)? I’ve heard most of the West Coast is a good environment, but what specific areas anywhere would do well for a person of my classification?
This is a very old thread, but I have to comment. I think you are an Oreo cookie plain and simple. There is nothing wrong with admiring another race, but to just want to be them is totally different. Don't get me wrong I date outside my race, but I just find it odd that you point out White and Asian as your primary choice. Both for the most part over times had the most disdain for blacks. It's funny because most Asian women that date outside their race, date white and want to be white. Something that you are not, but from what you write try to be.

The times have indeed changed.

2007: Friendly people with helpful responses
2013: Let's revive a post just to trash on the OP

Either give a useful response or walk on. Sheesh!

Is it just me, or has the OP changed his screen name?

I remember this thread from a long time ago.

Nice Starfox reference by the way.
