Gold Pile Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I dated two black women, I found them and people like Naomi Campbell to be very attractive. For some reason I no longer feel that attraction. In parts it's their hair...the hotter her hair the more likely it's a weeve. When I was a goofy, horny teen I used to dream up mixed super women. White face and hair, Asian butt and box, everything else Black. I've never been attracted to non working poor people of any race. Not to be confused with non working wealthy women like hot Paris Hilton. I think most men would have sex with halfway attractive women of any race, but getting serious is an option for fewer of them. There is a cultural gap that can't be ignored...it's there. Link to post Share on other sites
stillafool Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 That may be true for some men, TA, and you may have a point, because it seems that most Biracial/ Black actresses are chosen because they have some Caucasian features. But I've always found that the darker the better. It seems that darker skin is softer, like velvet.. I dated a girl from Mississippi, who had very dark skin, full lips and a natural, and I was bat-**** crazy about her. She would look into my eyes, and I knew her soul. BTW, I do have a LS crush on you, I hope you don't mind. LOL I think the darker black women are the prettiest as well. My cousin is engaged to a black girl and she is (I kid you not) black as night and she has fine features, almond shaped eyes, her smile could light up the night. She is tall and absolutely drop dead gorgeous. Link to post Share on other sites
JustJoe Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 SAF, The Nubian/ Ethiopian/Somali profile (slanted eyes, full lips, pointed chin, etc) is classic. Look at the Egyptian Hieroglyphics at the pictures of the Pharaohs and queens. Link to post Share on other sites

VelveteenBunny Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) ...but IME most men, and this goes for all races, not just white men, tend to list biracial/black women as the most attractive ideal within the race. Lighter skin, more European features, sometimes lighter hair/eyes and silkier hair texture. I've noticed it in the media, but haven't heard enough men say to know. I've seen that some darker women take this as a sign that public beauty standards hold white women in higher regard than black women, but I don't think that's true because that opinion seems to disregard that the media ALSO picks white women who have more features from darker skinned races. Darker skin and fuller lips being the top two, with bigger butts (not meant derogatorily) and sometimes the "exotic" (almond) eyes factoring in, also. The media seems to go for mixed feature. It's as if they're saying, "You can't be too black or too white"- as if that were possible. Edited June 20, 2010 by VelveteenBunny Link to post Share on other sites
Eve Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I am an attractive black woman (others have complimented, not said in arrogance:) and I am dating after getting divorced a few years ago. I was married for 15 years so dating is extremely new for me. Also, I didn't date a lot before I was married, so dating is really new. I have found that race really isn't a concern. I am currently dating a white male and I have never dated outside my race before. As I am starting to date, there are black men that I have had things in common with, and others that I did not. Being that this is the first time I have encountered a romantic interest in a white man, it really isn't as mystical as it seems. He's a man and I really enjoy his company and as we get to know each other, the chemistry grows. I think it's just different, but I agree with other bloggers, it's not the color, it's the chemistry between a man and woman. Also, I have found that men in the military have a broader and more appreciative perspective of all women because they have traveled to different cultures as opposed to being shaped by one geographic location all their lives. Hope this helps. If your heart is open to people in general, I think we all find common ground. Just as we do with friends or colleagues at work. I think it's more fear than anything. It's all the same really. Hope it works out for you both. Glad that you dont hold any hostility towards men of your own race as sometimes seems to happen. Yes, chemistry is everything.. Take care, Eve xx Link to post Share on other sites

Author Major Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 All I have to say is...I don't faught them for what they decide to do with other races. The bottom line is, if you are happy and fulfilled. Who cares what anyone thinks? I'm looking for a man, not a color, but a man who loves me the way I deserve to be loved and I will treat him the same. If he is another race, oh well. I'm not prejudice:) Be happy tippie:) It's just jealousy. If I had found a black man to give me what I needed, then I would be with him. It's not the color...it's the substance. Are there some great black guys? Of course! However, it just happened at this time that the great, guy in my life is white. Link to post Share on other sites

Krytie TV Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I find very few black women attractive. The ones I do, I must admit, have some "white" qualities about them. By that I mean light skin, wavy hair, etc. Link to post Share on other sites

Bdk Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I find black females very sexy. In fact i mostly date them exclusively these days. not that I dont date others I just noticed that I tend to be attracted to a black female. I also notice I have tons more to talk about and things to share from both cultures... And as for my family not approving... that's not a concern and hasnt been since my hs yrs. I dated black females then in the mid 90s and I do now. my parents never had a problem nor did they try to stop me. They knew I would go for what made me happy and told me to stick to my views in life. Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Normal Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) Depends on the woman, there are attractive women in each race. There are some physical differences (in general) so if you like curvy hourglass figures then you are going to have relatively slim pickings with SE Asian women, for example. If you like blonde hair, you probably aren't going to be dating many black women. If you like dark or tan skin, you're not going to go so much for Swedish people and so on.

treyfan88 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 My bf is white, I am black. Most of the disapproving comments and looks come from other black women! White women are usually nasty, but don't say anything to my face. They'll be passive aggressive and other **** like that but I just chalk that up to jealousy. Just yesterday some old white lady was giving me grief at the cash register...oy...I live in Texas (time to get out of this redneck cesspool of a state!) White men are usually very confused when they see my bf and I walking together--they'll do a double-take and nudge their buddies. They seem more shocked than anything else. I just smile. Makes me laugh. He gets questions at work about black women; "Is it TRUE what they say about black girls?!" and so on. Black men don't seem to mind so much--in fact, they usually give my bf the "thumbs up" when my back is turned, hahaha! One guy at an electronics store actually gave my boyfriend some "dap" LOL! But those are just MY personal experiences. White men cannot be generalized. Just like black women can't be generalized. Asking if "white men find black women attractive" is like asking one race of people what their favorite food is. There's no single answer! Every person is different--people are complex and with that, so are their preferences. Even if every single white man on this forum said "I hate black chicks" they do not represent ALL white men on this planet. Just the white men on this site. I'd stop worrying about what "white men" find attractive and just go for what makes YOU happy. Contrary to popular belief, white men aren't much different from black men, or hispanic men, or asian men, or WHATEVER! I'm bisexual, so race and gender don't matter to me, lol. If I like you, I like you. I will say this though, being in an interracial relationship is very HARD. More so for bw/wm. My bf has had to stop communication with his racist mother because she won't get on board with our relationship. Even the strongest couple can buckle from the racial hatred from onlookers and those their own families! So be prepared. Link to post Share on other sites
styla786 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 You know, I've noticed that white guys do love black women, but they're hard to get. That's why they stick with there own kind. but they still tend to look at them all the time.They just don't want to admit it. Link to post Share on other sites

I think the "hard to get" part is usually due to significant differences in culture. Some in the black community basically insulted Obama for not being black enough, and some white people had issues with him being black at all. The socio-economic differences can play a part too, it just makes this rift that makes people unsure if they should even try. Link to post Share on other sites

That's why they stick with there own kind. but they still tend to look at them all the time.They just don't want to admit it. Yup. I've found that to be the case too! (Everyone loves chocolate, I don't care who you are! Hahaha!) It's racial stereotypes holding white guys back. Some black women are hard to get...some aren't. Some black women come from poor socioeconomics...some don't! Either way, don't judge a person by the outside! You won't know if a woman is "hard to get" or not until you at first TRY! And just because you are black doesn't mean you come from a ghetto. My boyfriend gets a lot of "respect" for having a fine black girlfriend (and I am pretty smokin' if I do say so myself)! Somehow dating the "black girl" makes him "tough" or something, LOL! Everyone assumes I'm snapping my fingers and rollin' my eyes in his face, lol! That is SO not the case, hahaha! White guys (especially) are intimidated by black women for this stereotype--but don't buy into it. We are not what you see in rap videos and TV. We are like any other woman out there. Perhaps with a better bull****-meter, lol! So if a girl looks interesting to you (regardless her race) go and get her! Link to post Share on other sites
Green Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I find very few women attractive. Most of the women I do find attractive are white.

"Mistakenly refer to as the white personality?" So being pretty and having a good personality is a "WHITE" trait?!

Feelin Frisky Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Beautiful is beautiful. There are ethnic Africans who are not beautiful and there are ones that are, just like there a white girls who have a face only a mother can love and those that magetize ya to the core. I check 'em all out and my longest term live-in relationship was with a black woman who was pretty dark. Her personality was so charming and magnetic that she had offers from white guys way above my pay grade at the time. She was loyal and I never suspected her of flinging with someone else. I still miss her after many, many moons. Link to post Share on other sites

(Sensitivity) I was going to say a girl who wasn't Ghetto but I thought that would be more insulting. LOL! Bless your heart! I'm not going to the touch the "ghetto" comment but I will address the first. For the sake of argument, let's say I'm being "sensitive." OK. I'll bite. But why should MY being sensitive make you think twice about dating ALL black women? I am just ONE black woman. Just because you find me "sensitive" doesn't mean ALL black women are "sensitive." Just because you strike me as an "ignorant pissant" doesn't mean ALL men are "ignorant pissants." Imagine if I went through life assuming every single man I met was an uninformed, pig-headed ignoramus! *shock* What a miserable way to look at the world! It would be unfair to the intelligent men out there who weren't complete and utter morons, no? I don't think you have to worry about being in a relationship with a black woman, Mr.Green. Really, I think you're fine. As for the general topic at hand, I've said my piece. Black, blue, red, whatever, follow your heart! Don't let race get in the way of a potential mate, HOWEVER if you do end up in an interracial relationship, prepare for the bigots! They'll be linin' up at the door! For any black woman reading here wanting more info on interracial relationships go ahead and PM me! Peace and namaste, everyone! I hope everyone on loveshack find their special someone.

bentnotbroken Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 As a southern chocolate drop from the over 40 group, I attract all races. Though at this juncture in my life I am content not to date. White men tend to be generally polite with me if not a little timid. I guess the ghetto term is relative what your view of ghetto really is. Link to post Share on other sites

White men tend to be generally polite with me if not a little timid. I guess the ghetto term is relative what your view of ghetto really is. Well ghetto is ghetto, like redneck is redneck. I grew up in a town with a large lower-class population comprised of whites, puerto ricans and blacks and it's about as ghetto as it gets. I guess the way of speaking would be the worst thing to deal with, because generally it implies a complete lack of brain activity when speech is devolved to that really horrible level that barely represents english, whether it be redneck-y or ghetto-y.
