5. "I don't agree...."
In response to In response to 0


          

Look i feel like Black men and women need have more healthy relationships no doubt. I feel like our relationships has been retarded by the legacy of slavery and racism and discriminatory economic system. I undertstand that and champion that cause. But if i as a black male am attrrcted and related to a white woman (this happens alot in the small college town i'm in), i'll date her cuase what says i'm obligated to date black women. I refuse to limit myself to one demographic group. I think black women need to face their inferiority complex towards white women. Black women need to not feel so betrayed by bruhs who date white women. I feel like black women feed into the white beauty myth and try to combat it by trashing white women by saying shit
"Those white bitches, blah, blah, look at them"
"Look at those ugly white girls, they aint shit!"
But deep in their hearts you see the inferiority from feeding in to a BULLSHIT WHITE BEAUTY MYTH. I feel like Black Women are very Beautiful but until they accept they're own beauty they will always have a complex. They always will be rocking long weaves, blond streaks, blue contacts, and other bullshit cosmetic products that try to cover up your beautiful Afrikaness.
It's funny cuz i know mad sistas i tries to holler at but they played cuz they like you some intellectual shit (*Note in major cities and quality universities they're are many Black Women who dig intellectual and culturally aware Black Men, But where i'm at this doesn't exist) I find myself dating liberal minded white women or international women from Africa or Latin America. These people relate to me better cuz they have interest in politics and philosophy (history, diversity in music. I'm in a hip-hop but i listen R&B, Soul, Rock, Blues, Jazz, World Beat, etc. Up here its all about 504 Boyz, the LOX, (I can say there more white folks who rock Black Star and Common and Coltrane and blacks at my school)
*Note this is where i'm at i would like to meet some of the sistas that post on these boards cuz yall don't exist where i'm at...
I think if you find someone to realte to, you should go with it, ya mean...
All i can say is find a man who is good for you...
no matter what background and enjoy life...

love a brother who cares about the sistas but who may date a white lady
