[Tiffany]

I noticed this too, when I went shopping with two friends this weekend in the mall. The couple (black man/white woman) became especially lovey-dovey when we entered the store and began browsing in the shoe area near them. This may not be typical of most interracial couples, but reading Nikki’s question triggered that memory in me. I guess my annoyance in dealing with white women who date black men is the fact that they try too hard. I have two cousins who are married to white women, and it seems that the women try to overcompensate for the fact that they aren’t black, in particular when we are in a family group setting. One used so much slang that her own mother-in-law (my aunt) had to point out that we (meaning black folks) don’t talk like that all the time, and the majority of the people in the room were college-educated. She was, of course, embarrassed. She would be more accepted if she would be herself.
