Maybe your stereotypes are shining through during your conversations with these black women as much as they do in your posts.
agreed

Colors of skin really have no impact, thinking so is just prejudice, it seems many people are attracted to rebels and counter culture followers (right now it's the thug culture or hipsters). Most younger people seem to rebel as an expression of defining their individuality (god I sound old at 30), and people don't want to be their own solitary rebel. They want to be different in the same way as all their friends.

STOP! DESIST! HALT! DON'T EVEN!!!

[b]Puleeeeze Stop these wildly sweeping comments which are only anecdotal at best or just the blathering of folks who can't get a date no matter the color of the woman.[/B

That also brings up a question for you, then. What qualities, exactly, do you consider to be masculine qualities. How does "street smarts" translate into masculinity?

Let's not be sexist about this. Both men and women tend to be attracted to trashy people. Once they have 'captured' it, they then get burned and scream bloody murder. Yeah... like they expected any different? You try to pet a rattlesnake and what do you expect it to do? Be nice?

Now, of course, I'm not saying everyone is like this. But there does seem to be a "common sense in relationship" gene missing in a good chunk of the populace. Personally, I've never seen the draw of lowlifes.

I was married to a lowlife once. A blond-haired, blue-eyed one. Having good health insurance, I went into therapy. I had always had a lot of anxiety, since childhood, coupled with OCD tendencies, which is just another form of anxiety. "Something" was always going to happen and I had to prevent it. I'll never forget how much it hit home when my therapist said that "Joe" provided me with the real crises I needed.

Oh you know what? Cut the crap.

The majority of Black women I work with are highly educated, and the majority of Black women that I meet that I do not work with all have one thing in common..........no gangsters, thugs or lowlives. They don't need any extra crap.

Your going to find mi vida loca everywhere. There is an attraction to the street life that some women go for. Live with it. If you want to.

Many women go for intelligent men. The mind is the greatest sexual organ you possess. I would lay money that if your as intelligent as you think you are that you could whip that sucker out and....


This means one of two things, one your at an age where your "looking for your one true thing" and not finding it or you just watched about 25 race threads go down and somehow think that with under 20 posts you won't be found out as starting yet, "another" race thread. No plot there.
