I found this site while searching for something else. It's a messageboard where the topic was raised and discussed about whether white men are attracted to black women. Some of the candid comments are interesting. Here's just a taste:

Okay, that last commenter seemed kind of weird to me.

I saw the topic and wanted to comment. I think something like who's attractive to who is very personal and can't be generalized. You like who you like.

But it reminded me of a married couple I used to know when I lived in Chicago, he has European ancestry, she is very dark-skinned. My husband and I were over at their house and they were telling us about how they met, and to hear it from him it was love a first sight. He said, "I had never seen anyone so beautiful." I thought it was very cool for any man to say that about his wife.

Last time we saw them they were happily married and had two little girls. We lost track of them over the years, I think they live in San Jose now.

Mercy!

If she was only 20 pounds heavier. How can you not find her lovely.

Some of these posters assume all black American women have attitudes and black women (or what they consider black) the world over are like black American women. You know how it is, white women are diverse in temperament and culture throughout the world, but black women are the same wherever you go. .

In the social circles I move in, many non-black men (white included) literally lust after black women (from anywhere), and I don't mean light-skinned ones.

The last poster has more than a few sexual problems.

The guy who made me laugh so much was the one that was afraid of the "black vagina." Does he imagine there are teeth down there? What a moron!

That last guy needs a counselor or something.

I also thought the comments were a little...odd for a science forum, until I saw the subtitle to the subforum: "cesspool: unintelligent community."

That summed it up for me Razz

Sexually curious, it is natural for men and women from different racial groups to become sexually interested in each other meaning what would it be like to have sex with a person from this or that race. It is just like non-white men being fascinated with a white woman, or men being fascinated with Latinas, etc. Now go people and create mixed children.

There ain't nothin' Asian women can do for me; even when I was in the x's and y's mode.

The young lady above, yup, tho' on 20 pounds or a little more and she can treat me worse than my wife does. Wink

Seriously, the neigborhood lady across the street counseled her daughter against dating White guys in College (15 years back). Something about them acting out their fantasies on Black women. I say some, she says it doesn't matter. See 'some' on the guy's post about Black women dancing to attract mates. New one on me I guess.

In general, women and men equally do a lot of complaining about the other gender. I've heard black men saying uplifting things about black women but I've also heard and seen black men being EXTREMELY disrespectful to black women in particular. I've also heard A LOT of black women commenting both in private and in public venues about the disrespect that they encounter (disappointingly) from black men. This very topic is discussed at length in this book:

http://onedroprule.org/viewtopic.php?p=2992#2992

There's an essay/chapter called Piropos. Contributor Ayana Byrd writes about her encounters with strangers, black men in particular, on the busy Manhattan streets. She writes of the hissing and catcalls. A lot of these encounters are very demeaning. I was particularly disturbed when I read about more than one of her encounters where she tried to discourage these come-ons by telling these total strangers that she was 16. She was actually 23 so this lie was a believable one. Instead of running the other way, the man that she told she was 16 merely asked her when would her parents not be home so that he could call her! She said that this man looked to be in his thirties. She got similar responses when she'd lie about her age going as young as 12! This chapter in particular really opened my eyes to what a young attractive woman is likely to face if she's exposed to this street/sidewalk culture in the city. Apparently, there are some BOLD and aggressive men out there with no shame to their disgusting game.
