I'd love to meet Kerry Washington. She's a breath of fresh air and very smart.
I actually saw her in the play Race. It was really good. She waived at me. It has been a few years but she was so petite in the show. She looks much bigger on TV.
I have dated white men (mostly while in college) and found it easier, because they didn't care about my dark skin. Actually, the ones that I've dated, absolutely loved it. The majority of black guys that I encounter, happen to mostly prefer light skin or caramel colored black women. I'm sure they would love to sleep with me, but I don't really see them as preferring my skin color over a mixed woman. Since many black guys have these preferences, I choose to keep it moving as well.
Likewise. Maybe if I had light skin and straight hair, maybe things would be different, but I do not. I haven't given up on black guys, I just choose to be around those who actually prefer my particular look. And you do have your preferences. You've made it quite clear that you prefer biracial and Hispanic women.
Why is it ok for you to acknowledge that mixed and Hispanic women prefer you, so that is who you choose to go after, but wrong for me to state that a number of white guys that I've dated in the past preferred my dark skin and kinky/curly hair, so in return, I'm more attracted to those type of guys, than those who tend to prefer the Paula Patton/Halle Berry types. Whether you realize it or not, your statements are a bit hypocritical. On the one hand you want people to understand why you have your preferences, but you refuse to acknowledge why I have mine.
I do not know how to make any African dishes. I saw a woman the other day with a full pan of Puff Puff. I asked her "is that Puff Puff"? She said yes and offered me some. I declined out of embarrassment but I really wanted some. Lol! I have not had rice and pepper soup in a long time. We had it almost everyday growing up. When my father was around, he only made African food. He loved to make this dish called Ecocorale. I am sure I spelled it wrong. It is made with Yams. He also made egusi soup with tribe. The man could really cook. We would have it with rice and plantain. I need to find a Nigerian restaurant. There is a African restaurant close by but it has more of a french influence.
Buka on Fulton Street in Clinton Hill, BK is a good Nigerian restaurant
There are also many Ghanian places in the BX but I don't know the names. The Bronx has a very large Ghanian population.
I like him. He seems like a very passionate person. I cannot really present a plausible argument to refute being in love. I've experienced more prejudice from black americans than I have from white people. I think we do what we do because we just do not know any other way.
I didn't say it was wrong. It's a yes or no question. You answered it for yourself tho, but what is the likelihood of that happening for most women?
I spent a good part of my life thinking that he did not exist for me but maybe he does. Is it that difficult for a man to be loving and supportive? If he is understands his role as a man and he cares for me, it should be a no brainer.
So you want a white guy who is good looking, doesn't watch porn, and doesn't drink? And you say you aren't even above average in the looks department?
You have high standards. Maybe unrealistic. But, I've seen stranger things happen. Good luck.
Plenty of unattractive to average women in the looks department, who are professional and educated throwing themselves in front of white men, I see it all the time when I go to lounges and happy hours, I just smh, the only benefit for the white guy is that he gets to mop up!
