    No I have said this before, attraction and discrimination are two different
    things... Discrimination means you hate somebody, just because your not
    attracted to somebody doesnt mean you hate them. Muhammad Ali wasnt attracted to white women does that make him racist.

    He always sounds narcicisstic in interviews. He doesn't love anyone as much as himself.

    Why would playboy ask him if Black women were after him?

    This is the question they asked right before the one about black women:

    PLAYBOY: It is true; a lot of rappers love you. You recorded with Common and Kanye West, played live with Jay-Z.

    MAYER: What is being black? It’s making the most of your life, not taking a single moment for granted. Taking something that’s seen as a struggle and making it work for you, or you’ll die inside. Not to say that my struggle is like the collective struggle of black America. But maybe my struggle is similar to one black dude’s.

    Maybe they figured if his 'struggle' is similar to a black dude's, maybe he's open to IR. Who knows. The whole interview gives you the impression he's a completely self-absorbed ass who thinks he's an existential, misunderstood genius. I don't listen to him, and I can tell I wouldn't want to know him personally, racist or not.

    I think he should be quiet now. He's said enough.

    I don't know any black girls (including myself) that found him good looking. I guess the ones who did are now disappointed.

    Holly Robinson doesn't seem all that offended though :|

    It has nothing to do with not being attracted to black women more than him saying the N-word and comparing his penis to leader of an organization that lynched, murdered, oppressed, and continues to seek oppression of Black Americans. :smt105

    I think people may be misreading his quote. He seems to be saying that he hasn't had sex with a Black Woman, not that he never will. He seems to be suggesting that he will open himself up to it in the future, and even lists some Black Women he finds attractive.

    As far as being offended about his calling his dick david duke? That's just being offended for the fun of it. David Duke should be described as a penis every half hour for the rest of eternity. Getting upset about that part of the quote is ridiculous.

    Btw, exist2live, why are you here? Just curious. We got a White Guy here yesterday to "test our tolerance". I think we failed. What's your mission?

    Which one was that? "White Man" or "Proud White Man?"

    I wanted to post something. :confused:

    edit.

    If you're under the impression that I must have an agenda, I don't. I'm not surprised though that some racist white men may want come here and troll.

    I dunno, I think he's just so focused on schmoozing with the media and be funny and smart that he often becomes a victim of his "musings" (not nessesarily aware of how he comes across) . I dont know how many times I have gone "eh?" to his comments...
    I dont think he nessesarily mean harm or is a racist - he just lack brain-to-mouth filters. I think he is a clown and nees to focus on only doing music as that is not too bad - just shut up:)

    2010 and people still fail to realize the connection between racism and penis-envy.

    My husband and I just had a hilarious conversation about whether John Mayer's penis reaches out and locks the car door when Black people walk past.
