    Historically, Black men have had a harder time maintaining their masculinity in racist situations than White men, so if your appearance or demeanor is in any way masculine–I assume that’s at least one of the reasons why you describe yourself as ‘asexual’–Black men may percieve you as a threat, or an affront to their physical manhood. White men may be indifferent towards you enough that you think they ‘accept’ you. What is your definition of being ‘accept[ed]and respect[ed]…as a woman’? Not having the White guy in the check-out line say, ‘Excuse me, sir’? as opposed to the Black saying, ‘Get out my way, punk’?
