<p>I think there are women of all races that are pretty. Of course, no guy thinks every single girl that exists is attractive (in one way or another) , but that is kinda ridiculous.</p>
<p>Why was this moved?</p>
<p>Yeah! I was wondering the same thing? Why is it moved?
I love reading the comments on this thread.
And it really fit on the AA forum.</p>
<p>why was this moved?
Is there any way we can get it moved back?</p>
<p>I read the first 40-some odd posts, so if this got derailed at some point oh well because I’m going to answer the first post lol. </p>
<p>I grew up as a white girl in a predominantly black town. These are my observances:
- Towns still tend to be racially divided. Therefore, white women and white men tend to become couples and black men and black women tend to become couples. However, a white man is statistically much more likely to stick around than a black guy is, therefore a very large number of black women are not going to have husbands. </p>
<p>2) Black men see white women as exotic, white men see black women as exotic. The later couple is much more likely to actually happen as it is more “socially acceptable”, but many white men simply do not have the courage to ask out a white women whereas black men do- once again leading to black women not having men. </p>
<p>3) The good men (of all ethnicities) that actually WILL stick around and marry a woman tend to not like black women- for all the stereotypes that have been posted before. Men feel the need to be the “provider” whereas black women have historically needed to be the provider because black men (and now men of all ethnicities) either were forced away (slavery) or went away on their own (dead-beats). When both feel the need to be the provider- one is generally driven away (which is why many successful women of all over the color spectrum are single). </p>
<p>4) This one ties in with many of the rest- sadly, the majority of black children do not grow up with both parents and the majority of them only grow up with their moms. This teaches sons that they don’t need to stick by their women (subconsciously, even though they know how bad it was growing up with only one parent) and teaches black women that they don’t need a man. </p>
<p>5) The final reason is- again, many black women will only marry black men and black men are 6-7x more likely to be incarcerated than white men. Many black women will not marry a man who’s been in jail and many will not be asked out by white men, so there is a much smaller spouse-pool. </p>
<p>I could take nearly every single one of these reasons and replace “black” with “poor” and “white” with “rich” and you would get the same result. It is not black women per se, it is more “poor” women and unfortunately, black women are 3-4x more likely to live below poverty than white women. I believe that if we were to break down marriage rates by ethnicity AND income level then we would see a much stronger correlation between income level and marriage rates than ethnicity and marriage rates. </p>
<p>Long post, but just my two cents. Btw, I am deeply sorry if I said anything that offends anyone. That was not my intention.</p>
<p>Because Tiger Wood is half black and half asian. If he marry white, his children will have black blood, asian blood, and white blood which is equal to beautiful baby. Don’t you think mix is beautiful?</p>
<p>“This makes Woods himself half Asian (one-quarter Chinese and one-quarter Thai), one-quarter African American, one-eighth Native American, and one-eighth Dutch.[9] He refers to his ethnic make-up as “Cablinasian” (a syllabic abbreviation he coined from Caucasian, Black, (American) Indian, and Asian).[10]”</p>

<p>@romanigypsyeyes Good post and I liked reading it.
Oh and I found your opinions to not be offensive at all.</p>
<p>Racist stereotyping. Good-job.</p>
<p>It’s intellectually dishonest (and impossible) to make sweeping statements like I dis/like all members of a certain ethnicity or race. Nobody can know with such certainty that they will absolutely have no attraction to every single member of a group that numbers in the tens of millions (or maybe hundreds of millions, or even billions). It’s a staggering act of generalized thinking that it should make one’s head spin. Appearances and personalities are so varied amongst groups that such statements are ignorant at best and prejudiced at worst.</p>
<p>More accurately, what people are really saying is that they dis/like the stereotypes of a certain ethnicity or race. They’re also saying that they’re all too willing to believe in those stereotypes to not bother to try to dig a little deeper below the surface to find actual individuals beneath the unfair generalizations.</p>
<p>It’s quite ludicrous how many people are willing to make overly idealistic or overly negative assumptions of peoples of certain countries/ethnicities/races based on nothing more than images they see in movies or popular conceptions. Like if I say that I like French girls, what exactly am I saying? I know like 3 French girls, and none of them very well. I’ve never been to France. I’ve seen some French movies. Yet I think I have the ability to determine what a girl from France will be like, and subsequently decide how attracted I would be to her? Pure fetishism at its worst.</p>
<p>Indeed, that’s what most people are doing when they talk about attraction and race. They project certain qualities onto certain groups (almost always based on ignorance), and then fetishize the hell out of them. Certain groups have more positive images projected onto them than others. Black women, unfortunately, have very negative images projected onto them, and most people don’t bother to try to get to know black women in order to dispell these images.</p>
<p>question on white meat blog

Uh, i have a question and I’d kind of appreciate it if you would clarify something for me.
It seems to me from many posts that some of the men here are black.
If one of you black men were to marry a white woman and have a daughter–then wouldn’t she be black as well? due to genetics?
From there, since you think black women aren’t beautiful- then wouldn’t you consider your hypothetical daughter ugly?</p>
<p>And considering the post-” what to do if your child starts to like non-white women”
since your daughter would also be black then would that mean that you wouldn’t want anyone to love her/like her?
How does this work?
Pls. Explain."</p>
<p>“tnameat
I do need to write an article on this, but to just scratch the surface of my own personal philosophy she wouldn’t be ugly. Let’s look at some of the most beautiful women in main stream media; Halle Berry and Zoe Saldana these women are mixed race. So actually if you want to make generally beautiful black women they generally have been mixed with something. Zoe isn’t the best example as she is not mixed with anything white, but Halle the epitome of black beauty in America actually got many features from more than likely her Caucasian ancestry. I will always love my children male or female black or mixed 100% I’m not a monster. Does this answer your question?”</p>
<p>Why are we getting so upset with this White Meat blog, how is this site any different from all the pro-black women sites that bash white women, hell this blog is probably more tame than those blogs but I think because the shoe is on the other foot we are angry at it.</p>
<p>Halle Berry is NOT the epitome of black beauty in America. That’s just what the media aka white America purports. </p>
<p>Similarly - back when everyone was on J-Lo’s bottom. The media swore she had a big butt - yeah right. :-/</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>White beauty is constantly promoted all the time. Everywhere. “Pro-black women sites” were created as a remedy to exclusion and discrimination from the mainstream dominant media. </p>
<p>If you can somehow prove that white women have been excluded and discriminated against from the mainstream dominant media, then your painfully simplistic argument would hold some water.</p>
<p>Oh I’m sorry I was just raised that two wrongs don’t make a right. And you know not to be petty.</p>
<p>I think stereotypes and prejudice are still very prevalent in our society. People assume black women and black men to fit into a certain stereotype of how they should “act” and “be”.</p>
<p>Personally, I am a multiracial female (my mother APPEARING as white as could be), but I still depending on the context seen as a black woman. When people meet me, they stereotype me to be one way. I have heard countless times for both men and women how I definitely wasn’t what they expected. It was because they passed judgment on me before meeting me. For the most part, most other minorities, as well as internationals, catch on to the fact that I am not African American, but rather of Hispanic/ Carribean descent (Cuban to be exact). It just irks me when I am joking with someone and go “I’m African American” and they go “Wait, I thought you were Hispanic and not BLACK?” As if being African American was bad?</p>
<p>I personally have never really been attracted to a full black man that I have known in real life. I have been raised in predominantly white neighborhood and for the most part have preferred Caucasian males. I guess it’s just what I have grown up around. In recent years though, I have broaden my horizons to see beauty in all races, but it definitely wasn’t always that way. </p>
<p>I find it ironic how I have an affinity for Caucasians males, but yet find it somewhat offensive when someone doesn’t find me beautiful because of my race?</p>
<p>It’s especially delighting to meet foreigners who find me beautiful. I’m not sure if media broadcasts different images of beauty in other countries, but I find foreigners find me far more attractive than any American male does (or maybe they find all Americans to beautiful?)</p>
<p>Basically what I’m getting at is we are entitled to choose what we find attractive. Every race has beautiful people, but it’s all up to personal taste. I don’t think race should be a factor when you fall in love with someone. I don’t think black male celebrities should have to marry black woman nor black female celebrities have to marry black men. The choice is up to them.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>If two wrongs don’t make it right, then why are you defending the pro-white site? I’m assuming that you think the pro-black site is the first wrong, therefore the pro-white site is the second wrong.</p>
<p>Or maybe you’re trying to say that the status quo is pro-white (the first wrong) and the pro-black site is the reaction (second wrong). </p>
<p>If the first proposition is true, then you’re contradicting yourself by denouncing the pro-white site as the second wrong. If the second proposition is true, you seem to be implying that we should all just accept a pro-white status quo because as wrong as that may be, it’s even worse to try and change it because that would necessitate the countermeasure of a second wrong.</p>
<p>Hmm.</p>
<p>I just couldn’t help posting today’s article on the white meat blog.
For me the blog is almost like a self-hating affixation
for example, being fascinated with an electric wire despite the risk of being shocked.
Like it hurts me, but i cannot turn away…
What do you think?</p>
<p>"Miss America 2010 is a Black Woman
February 1, 2010 by tnameat </p>
<p>Yes you read that title right. This year a Black Woman representing the state of Virginia: Caressa Cameron. Now I’m going to be honest Caressa isn’t an ugly woman, and I’m sure she has a nice personlaity….at least in public. But this as ne of my readers so aptly pointed out was a political move, not based on the best overall beauty.</p>
<p>Is this where we have come as a country? That even our beauty pagents are designed to just keep a “balance.” I did not watch the Miss America pagent, mainly becuase it has become increasingly irrelevant as shown here. Truly Miss USA seems to be the more dominant competition. (Even though I should point out that 2 years ago even Miss USA gave it to a non-white woman, but more than made up for it this year when the final 10 finalists were all white women.)</p>
<p>What are your thoughts on this winner? I just don’t understand it."</p>
<p>thus the blog says.</p>
<p>Wow ^ to that blog.</p>
<p>I don’t think they are choosing a black woman to “balance” it out. I think they chose her because she was the best candidate overall (beauty,personality, etc.). Moreover, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The original blogger seems to find that whites are more attractive than people of color based on his/her statements. He/She probably would of preferred a white to win because she would be more “beautiful” in his/her eyes.</p>
<p>BUMP</p>
