CheronMemberWhy is it that more and more white men are interested in black women?

MindkandyParticipantI am a black female and have dated a number of white men. I will say that white men are not necessarily becoming more interested in black women, but they are becoming more open about their interest in black women. White men in general have always had interest in black women (and I am not including those who seek us for sexually based, rape-motivated and/or stereotypical reasons); it is just that based on the times, locations and specific societal pressures that they face, white men may not be as frank and explicit with their desires to seek black women or extend their dating options to include black women. Of course, there are white men who are used to white people, ‘white ways’ and white environments, meaning population and types of people, and because of this narrowed experience with only their own ethnic background, they may be comfortable with only or mostly white women as romantic partners. Still, I have met and dated white men from those types of environments who are tired of mono-racial experiences and seek to diversify their options and relations to black/non-white women as both friends and dating partners. I think as society becomes more representational of interracial relationships and settings in sufficient ways through mass media, public events and functions, the ability for white men and anyone else interested in people of different ethnic groups to date will become more of a normal rather than taboo issue.

Tyler24932ParticipantI think it is because it has become more socially acceptable for white men to date black women. I am a white man and have dated two black women, and they were both fantastic women. Many black women have been sexual icons in pop culture: Tyra Banks, Halle Barre and Janet Jackson, to name a few. Not only white women are magazine covers and television; the beauty of the black woman has also been portrayed in pop culture and elsewhere.

John29284ParticipantI think the answer is that more women who are considered African American have Caucasians in their family tree. Although many of these women have dark skin, they were raised in a partially white culture, which means there is more in common between the two. As cross-cultural relationships continue, I think we can expect to see even more of this in the future. The lines are beginning to blur.

YemanniMemberCheron, I understand your question… I am also African American and I have dated white men, too. I think we are seeing more of this because of the workplace… as more and more African American Women move into professional positions, more interaction takes place between white men and black women. ‘…we are prejudice because we haven’t taken the time to get know each other!’ I think black women and white men are just starting to learn about each other… and we like what we are finding out…

R.A.LMemberI think that this is because black women got it going on, and because they need something different from the usual. Black women are very beautiful and white men just can’t help themselves like i can’t.

HG21618ParticipantThey’ve always been interested in black women. That’s why some of us are posing as some of you. It’s called ‘passing’. The difference in black and white men is: white men do their dirt before dawn and black men parade their crap for the whole world to see. Love to be seen with Massa’s women.

DouglasParticipantI am attracted to black women because my own cultural background is so white. So, I suppose, curiosity pushes me towards what seems different and exotic. Often black women are also physically attractive.

angelaParticipanti am an 23 year old white male. the reason why i date black females is because of their exotic look and warming personality. i don’t mean to be rude but white females are plain looking and all look the same.
