3. I am a conservative, so I rather want someone who is conservative as well. Most black women are to the left.
4. It is also important that she doesn't cause too much drama, understands when I get hurt and is easy going.

Pretty much with those 4 requirements leads to very few black women left, hence I have never dated a black woman. But I still date interracially. I have met many Indian, and Asian women who do share my views.
Wow, I had no idea that you could just look at someone and determine their personality based on ethnicity. Why are the Chinese people bothering with the birth year symbols to determine personality traits, they must be crazy.
Perfectly illustrating my point 4. You are causing drama over nothing.

I never said I determine their personality by looking at them. You said that. Are you assuming I know zero black women?

My experience with black women is that I am not too compatible with them. If I met a black women who I am compatible with, and if I am single I will date her. Am I not allowed to think that?

If you read the previous posts...I clearly state my wife is "brown skinned"

As in "she cannot put 'white' in the RACE section on any document"

Now, does she tell people she is black? Of course not.

What race does she put on the documents?

Ok. That's fine. I have no interest in white men myself, and I am not the only bw who feels this way. I do think there is vocal minority of bw who almost come across as begging wm for their attention online. People are getting this idea, and u can see it implied in this thread, that bw want wm more than wm want bw.

A lot of my family can (and have) "pass" for White....

Eartha Kitt with her daughter and granddaughter


Victoria Rowell's daughter (1/2 White 1/2 Black)

I'm sorry to contradict you, but Victoria Rowell's daughter is adopted. Anyways, you have nothing to prove to this poster. Who cares if all the kids come out the actual color black? Most wm in ir relationships know their children can come out looking a number of ways, but I'm sure they love them anyways.

I don't view people based on their race, so I can't personally say across the board, that I've never liked any white guy, because I've dated a few.

But the ones that I've dated, were highly intelligent, attractive, and professional, certainly not the trailer park type. I'll also add that my dating experiences are primarily with European, non American white guys and non American black guys.

Sarcasm is drama?

But my issue with you is simple, you basically said all back women are the same. That's a problem. Based on your comments you are assuming that black women are incompatible with asked on your own preconceived notions. As is black women are a monolith that is all the same. This is a very common problem.

I wasn't told I'd be disowned, but I was told that my husband, if black, would not be welcome....

I find this whole thing really disturbing...what matters most is, if your children are happy, not the race, religion and so on....

It is so petty and ignorant....

and if I stare forgive me, it's because either the man or the woman or both are attractive....I love to look at beautiful people....

and I would stare at Magic Mike all day long....

I shocked my mother and my aunt and uncle at my HS graduation in 1964 by kissing several girls I had been affectionate with including a wonderful black girl. My aunt was shocked by the black girl. My mother was shocked that there were any girls and my uncle by there being more than one. That was a good evening. Then and now I was far more concerned with personality than "beauty" or race.

No, I didn't assume they are all the same. I said there are few black women have the 4 qualities I listed, hence I normally don't end up dating black women. That does not mean they are all the same. Think logically, and you will understand that. I will give you a hint, learn the difference between the logical function AND and OR. Again you are perfectly illustrating my point 4. I don't like women with who creates a lot of drama over absolutely nothing.

Instead of being intellectually curious trying to find out what I actually think, you put me into a preconceived box where I am labeled tons of opinions, because you assume people like me have certain opinions. Then when you are done labeling me with opinions I do not hold, then you get outraged.

Stop labeling people. If I don't say something, then don't assume I believe it.
