<p>@CPUscientist3000 no i wouldnt date a white guy with all the characteristics of a black guy. that would make him black in every aspect but skin color. not appealing at all.</p>
<p>Excuse you. </p>
<p>Those 3 characteristics don’t “make someone black.”</p>
<p>^^ Damn you ignorant.</p>
<p>Collegeluva fell right into the trap that the Jim Crow America wanted. Now it’s you stereotyping black men as Ghetto and inferior in appearance. Now they can sit back and watch you do their work. Congratulations.</p>
<p>I am black.</p>
<p>I’m not stereotyping. I just go from what I have seen. I’m sure there are several intellectual, non-ghetto black men out there. I just have yet to meet them.</p>
<p>You just said that if a white guy had those 3 negative characteristics, it would “make him black” with exception to skin color and you would not date him. </p>
<p>
that’s even worse.</p>
<p>look. I didnt come here to start something. I came to state an opinion that I had.</p>
<p>and me being black means that im not stereotyping against all blacks like some southern whites seen in old movies. it means that when i see them on buses and they’re swearing like there’s no tomorrow, rowdy, and plain rude, I just dont find it attractive. I apologize for my statement about white guys earlier, which was false. but if white guy did act like this, it does not make him black. it just does not make him desirable.</p>
<p>I think you meant what you said the first time. </p>
<p>“I’m not stereotyping. I just go from what I’ve seen.”</p>
<p>Isnt that the basis of stereotypes? Myopic viewpoints from a single individual?</p>
<p>“I’m sure there are several intellectual, non-ghetto black men out there…”</p>
<p>But it would all be in vain, because they’d be digging out of the hole that you’ve put us all in. We’d have to prove we’re not ghetto, rather than proving who we are.</p>
<p>“im not stereotyping against all blacks like some southern whites seen in old movies”</p>
<p>whats funny is your statement right after:</p>
<p>"…it means that when i see them on buses and they’re swearing like there’s no tomorrow, rowdy, and plain rude…"</p>
<p>Is that not what the “southern whites seen in old movies” say? LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!</p>
<p>^ got em! :)</p>
<p>This is kind of played out now, but… WINNING!</p>
<p>Getting back on topic: where my chocolate lovin white boys at?</p>
<p>Futurevp</p>
<p>There is a difference between American black and African American. There is a HUGE difference in the cultures.</p>
<p>Salone, I was alos kicked out of the “black race”, by fellow people. I have also done my best, because of this, to show that I am not one of them.</p>
<p>Do I hate? Heck no. But I’m different. It’s like saying British people and Albanian people are the same. Yeah they’re all white skinned, but they are different. </p>
<p>BE INDEPENDENT!!! :)</p>
<p>You know, @ the moment it hurt, but it doesn’t even matter. I don’t need to associate with a group of people to be an individal. Sad part is that this is the fundamental philosophy behind high school social lives.</p>

<p>BlackRose, African American IS Black American (or American Black as you just said.)</p>
<p>Black, just the word “Black” refers to everyone. African Americans, Africans, Haitians, Jamaicans, etc etc.</p>
<p>I’ve been “ousted” as well. But, I’m succeeding. In life (so far.) That’s all that matters. not what others think of you (unless of course those others are adcoms:))</p>
<p>False.</p>
<p>“Isnt that the basis of stereotypes? Myopic viewpoints from a single individual?”</p>
<p>I’m not having myopic viewpoints from a single individual. I see one person who is being as i described above, and I say I would not be attracted to that ONE PERSON. It just so happens that most of the black guys, in my town anyway, are generally rude people. So I just said I would not go out with THOSE blacks. not every black in the universe.</p>
<p>“But it would all be in vain, because they’d be digging out of the hole that you’ve put us all in. We’d have to prove we’re not ghetto, rather than proving who we are.”</p>
<p>If you are not all of the above things I had described, then I would give you a chance. It does not take very long to prove you are not rude and boistorous anyway. If kind, I give you a chance. If not kind in general, then sorry!</p>
<p>"Is that not what the “southern whites seen in old movies” say? LOLOLOLOLOLOL!! "</p>
<p>Incorrect. The southern whites seen in old movies see a black and even though he/she does not even open her mouth, is quick to judge him/her negatively. I see a black and think nothing. Then if I hear him giving a bus driver poop and being boistorous and whatnot, I say, “Hmm…not very attractive.” I do not go, before he even opens his mouth, “Oh, poop! A black! Let me go take the other bus so I don’t even have to be NEAR him!” Very different.</p>
<p>Think of it this way: If you saw some dude, regardless of attractivity (unless your into the whole “bad boy” type) and race, and he just came off in general as a rude person in general, swearing, boisterous, pushy, mean, would you want to go out with him? I would not, regardless of race. It just so happens that some of people who do this are black. Not judging them at all. I have black family members who are kind people. I dont get scared of some black dude who walks into my house with my dad and says hello. You guys are all just misinterpreting what I said and ergo attacking me over the Internet.</p>
<p>I apologize if I have offended any of you with previous statements.</p>
<p>I don’t really think race or ethnicity plays a very large factor in who I’d date… I mean, it plays a role in who I find attractive, I guess. Many other things do too, though. Anyway, I definitely wouldn’t reject someone on the basis of race… Besides, I don’t care too much about looks anyway, there’s a lot more to a person than looks. There are about 100 things I can think of which are all more important than physical appearance haha… I find that “white” girls and sometimes “hispanic” girls usually possess the personality traits that I look for in a person, plus there’s usually less of a cultural and social barrier there. It might be harder to find someone I like of certain races, and even harder to approach them, but I definitely wouldn’t just not date someone because of their skin color, if I liked everything else about them(:</p>
<p>im hispanic, but i have a soft spot for white boys. i still would date hispanic and dark guys if they have wat im looking for.</p>
<p>Hmm, I’m sorry if I am reviving this thread unnecessarily, but I’ve been reading this thread and its tangent threads for the past couple of hours and I felt the need to make a contribution.</p>
<p>Just to give a little bit of perspective, I am an African American female.
Now let me dive into this.</p>
<p>First off, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to date a driven black man. Honestly, that’s my ultimate goal. Primarily so that my parents don’t give me any crap. But the thing is if I met a driven, cool, funny guy of any other race, I would be so chilled and definitely go out with him.</p>
<p>It would be awesome if I could find someone that I was intellectually matched with, but also has an understanding of my background. I don’t want to have to be incessantly explaining cultural things or have to give him a week-long crash course on how to talk to my parents. And I think, at least on the most basic level, that is what everyone is looking for: someone that they can relate to.</p>
<p>So seriously, if you are a straight, smart, driven, cool, tall (relatively) African American male, you have an automatic in with me. Seriously, you’re guaranteed at least a 6 month relationship. The “straight” clause seems to be the biggest problem… Literally every smart black guy I’ve met outside of my family is gay 
I have no earthly idea why that is. </p>
<p>If you’re any other race and have all of those traits and happen to be interested in me then you’re guaranteed… the time period from the beginning of our relationship until you inevitably blow it with my family… (jk, kinda)</p>
<p>Not on any level deeper than the fact that I tend to find HAPAs (Half White, Half Asians) to be RIDICULOUSLY ATTRACTIVE. I also find “exotic-looking” caucasians (i.e. eastern european, scandinavian etc) to be very very attractive. As they are the groups I find to be very attractive I end up dating them.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Pretty much everyone I met doesn’t seem to match me, in terms of intellectual interests.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m in! Yay :)!</p>
