Inter
The other day, as I was seated in a restaurant with my nephew, a white woman and black man stepped in. The woman and I briefly made eye contact. I smiled, and then I met his eyes. They were filled with resentment and anger, almost accusatory in nature. Needless to say, I was somewhat stunned. You see, I am enlightened enough to realize that ours, is an evolving world. Races have been mixing for x amount of years, and hardly any of us are "pure". But, there are others that would happily disagree with my views, white and black; male and female. And that's fine, but this is about my views, so feel free to disagree. A select number of people believe that by dating one of another race means they will be more sexually pleased. Thus creating the "hot Latino lover", and "hung black stud" stereotypes. I have been in interracial relationships before with Hispanic, white, and mixed men. From my experienced perspective, there were no noticeable differences. Meaning that most men were well endowed, and all pleased me sexually, emotionally, and otherwise. Although some relationships were not that pleasant, I realized it wasn't because of their race/ethnicity, but rather a clashing of personalities. So why do so many assume
These women have become fed up with black men and the black community in general. Not because they have a preference for white men, but because they are so disenfranchised with black men that they choose to look elsewhere. Myth3:Black men on white women: They are more subservient. Either way, I would not be impressed with a man who believed such broad generalizations. We have also had to deal with absentee/dead beat fathers (our own as well as our children's). So, they are less inhibited when it comes to sexual intimacy, and relationships, and they rarely have an attitude for the same reasons. Perhaps communication really is the key. One of the biggest myths is that white women are these subservient sluts, who will give any man money. This is such a problem, that now black women are increasingly dating interracially. If some of these close-minded people actually stepped into the real world, they would realize there is a multitude of personalities, morals, values, ethics, etc, in every race. Of course based on the above reasons as well as plenty of others, we find it hard to become the "submissive" female. Myth2:I have been told by many of my black male friends reasons why they exclude black women as their partners. Being a black woman, and being raised by one I can say, "not true!" Black women are strong. Most black women yearn to be just that, a mother, and a wife, but it is the lack of support from our community and male counterparts that keep us hostile.
