That's an unfair assesment RomanInSF, if you're basing it solely on what you read in my message, well I can tell you that I'm basing what I wrote in my message on what I've heard from other females (mostly white) talking to each other, when I used to hang out at bars in the 1980's.
White, and African American females and others run away from men of all races for many reasons.
can i ask a divisive question "to" black men and woman without being ridiculed? okay here i go, if........god gave u a chance to be half black and half white, would u say "yes", or would say "no" and instead be full black? i know i know its a pointless question and if two ppl love one another then let nature take its course.
This whole thread is disturbing and sad. Do you realize that the divorce rate in this country is like 50%? Maybe everyone should pay more attention to their own relationships instead of griping about everyone they see in the street.
I'm single (always have been -- never been married). I will consider myself very lucky to find someone to marry...no matter what his race. This has nothing to do with self-esteem, but with the rarity of young people who go into relationships with the right expectations.
Different strokes for different folks.
That's a healthy point of view, thank you for a refreshing take on what is, apparently, an age-old question .
We are ALL lucky if we find that right person, and when it comes down to race, does it really matter? Nope. What matters is the love; is it there?
If the answer is yes, then let your partner be white, black, yellow, red, whatever; just count yourself as one of the lucky ones who found IT.
And Happy Holidays to all!!

i guess my question should have been, is...... a lighter shade of black considered "more" attractive if u were black?
It's called "colorism", and many races and cultures have a bias towards preferring people of lighter skin color. Google up "colorism" and there are a ton of articles about it.
im trying to figure out this whole......."black white thing." i just sit back and i see things and i notice things, and i just wonder what "they" are thinking?
wow, thanks for the info .
only "black" phrase i know is, "once u go black u dont come back."
Other races prefer lighter skin, it's not just black people. In Japan and other Asian cultures, the use of skin lightening creams is popular. And from what my mom has told me, some of the prejudice comes from the fact that farmers and peasants were out in the fields getting dark tans from exposure to the sun. Whereas the richer or well educated people were staying indoors and staying paler. It's the same deal the fashion of having long fingernails. People doing manual labor would not be able to maintain long nails.
Maybe Black Dudes like White Chicks cause they are Hot
Maybe White Dudes like Asian Chicks cause they are Hot too
Just a thought cause this White Dude likes Blondes
But do you find ALL blondes hot looking?
