Is this true of the culture in the U.K. or is the person who composed this short essay full of it? I've got some mulattas and black chicks online that would be interested in knowing the veracity of these claims I'm sure.

Speaking personally, I'd go for either. Can't really say about anyone else.

Mind you, most of the people I work with are foreign, so make what you will of that.

Where are you from, nation-state wise?

It was actually a mixed woman on another forum that posted that OP. One mulatta that is from Europe - originally England I believe - and travels all over Europe and I think she currently is living in Paris responded on that forum thread to the OP. According to here she observes and found the experience true.

Not me making this up this is her own comments. She claims that living in England - London I believe to be exact - she was used to white guys approaching her all the time and hence she figured when she visited the U.S. it would be the same. According to her she found just the opposite in the U.S. - that the only white guys that approached her were into Hip Hop (not that that's a bad thing but she didn't sound like she was to fond of that ).

I do know in the U.S. not many white males pursue black women. This may not be entirely their fault though. Who the hell wants to get a bad attitude to a greeting or worse get their ear bitten off metaphorically. Not all Black-American women are like this but there are enough roaming around like that to keeps you wary.

Then again, white men in the U.S. often come from cultures that don't incline them to much toward black women.

It could even be motivated by something more innocent: neither people understands each other culturally that well.

That's actually one of my biggest annoyances with U.S. culture overall. And the older I get the more tired down I'm getting of it. You've got many, maybe not most, but many Black-Americans that think that basically all white people are rich. Trying to explain to them this is not true becomes frustrating. I remember getting into an argument with this black chick in college in a class. She was adamant all white folks in rural areas were well-to-do financially. I wanted to say, "Look BITCH, I've been around them and they ain't." I basically did say that but without the "bitch" part.

White people are the same, most have little understanding of black people.





Anyways, I wanted to know, I was a bit surprised, not totally though, with what the author of that essay said. I told the women that I would ask some Brits on another forum and if I got any response I would tell them what it was.


Peace in the Middle East.

My wife's white, but I had black girlfriends when I was younger.

Well, I knew your answer already, Gabriel, I took that for granted.


(You like black men. Big black men)

AA

Before I was an out and practicing gay, I only dated black women, but I don't think that really counts.

Who was the dominant in the relationship, AA?

In all seriousness, to veer off topic for a second, were or are you attracted to women? If so do you regard yourself more as bisexual or homosexual?

Now, to be slightly humorous, if not do you think you grew in gayness or improved your gayosity overtime?

No answer here is wrong by the way. The only wrong thing is being from Texas.

AA

I came out as bisexual, every once in a while I'll get drunk and have sex with a woman, but usually I have sex with men. I don't really have any desire to live any lifestyle that slightly even resembles the heterosexual model and I am more attracted to men than I am to women. Sometimes, when I see a vagina, just see it, it really turns my stomach and grosses me out. About six months ago, I stopped insisting everyone refer to me as bisexual (because even though I came out as such they all just summed it up to gay) and refer to myself now as gay.

In terms of dating black women, it was probably a relationship of equal dominance when I dated black women. I think a similar sense of humor was the glue that held each brief experience together. Alot of black women can still make me giddy like a little boy with a crush. But that's a pretty common gay experience to "love black women".

LMAO!!!! Oh lucky them!

(I know you didn't mean it this way but it sounded like a ho hum thing... and the women were fortunate and benefited. Damn, I wish I could be as cocky as you. )

Why is that?

AA

Yeah, well for both parties involved it's always been a "we're drunk, we're friends, why not" thing. I have to say, it does get pretty awkward the morning after though.

I think it is really only applicable to the finger snapping gays and the finger snapping black women. Similar attitudes. To clarify, I'm not particularly flamboyant and I certainly don't snap my fingers. I do just love black women.

The premise of this post is unbelievable- asking if men in the whole of the UK prefer black women. I have not experienced that. There is a stereotype of black men with white women. I have experienced that black men are approached a lot by white women. Ie, the women making the first move even. Just to generalise from one personal situation to the whole of UK in any case is ludicrous. The response on Yahoo says it all...
