Yes, but it all boils down to cultural similarities. Will this man enjoy hiking, going to various museums, attending plays/musicals, traveling around the globe, reading various books, discussing current events on a regular basis, saving substantially for retirement and his future children's private education?

How does saving for retirement, traveling, reading etc relate to cultural similarities? Are you saying that only white guys are interested?

It's sad because they are praising prostitutes in Brazil and comparing them to educated professional black women.

I am stating that those are my interest, and when I was looking for a life partner, I wanted a man who shared those interests. This has nothing to do with color.

So many women do not understand the importance of compatibility. It's really best to find someone who shares a similar lifestyle. If you don't, you'll find yourself constantly arguing and even worst, not having the same overall goals and this can be disastrous.

It's not all about the money for me. Without even knowing what a guy does for a living, I will judge him based on the way he speaks and carries himself. If you don't have a college degree and you speak and present yourself in a professional manner, I wouldn't have a problem with that. On the other hand, if a guy presents himself like an idiot, having a college degree wouldn't make things better.

I can not compensate for their daily experiences. I am simply pointing out that colorism does impact young black girls and destroys their confidence. Many of these experiences are hard to erase.

Egh it seems you have a bias against prostitutes. as I have a bias for prostitutes. It's understandable to me that they're praising prostitutes considering how it seems most guys regard and treat gals as prostitutes so with actual prostitutes they actually get the results they think they should get.
