Disgusted white girl somewhere in VA

One White Woman's Opinion of Black Women
Please take a moment and read this to the end.

It seems that an article was written to Sister 2 Sister magazine by a Caucasian woman who requested a response from black men.


Dear Jamie:
I'm sorry but I would like to challenge some of your Black male readers. I am a White female who is engaged to a Black male-good-looking, educated and loving. I just don't understand a lot of Black female's attitudes about our relationship. My man decided he wanted me because the pickings amongst Black women were slim to none. As he said they were either too fat, too loud, too mean, too argumentative, too needy, too materialistic or carrying too much excess baggage. Before I became engaged, wh enever I went out I was constantly approached by Black men, willing to wine and dine me and give me the world. If Black women are so up in arms about us being with their men, why don't they look at themselves and make some changes. I am tired of the dirty looks I get and snide remarks when we're out in public. I would like to hear from some Black men about why we are so appealing and coveted by them. Bryant Gumbel just left his wife of 26 years for one of us Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, the model Tyson Beckford, Montell Williams, Quincy Jones, James Earl Jones, Harry Belafonte, Sydney Poitier, Kofi Anan, Cuba Gooding Jr., Don Cornelius, Berry Gordy, Billy Blanks, Larry Fishburne, Wesley Snipes... I could go on and on. But, right now, I'm a little angry and that is why I wrote this so hurriedly. Don't be mad with us White women because so many of your men want us. Get your acts together and learn from us and we may lead you t o treat your men better. If I'm wrong, Black men, let me know. Disgusted White Girl, Somewhere in VA

Here is the response she received:

Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old black man. I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta, Georgia with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to be among the ranks of successful black men. I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set the record straight of why black men date white women. Back in the day, one of the biggest reasons why black men dated white women was because they were considered easy. The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the church. They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and who they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the white girls. Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers date white women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of black men, because of insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become intimidated by the strength of our black women. We are afraid that our woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many black men look for a more docile woman. Someone we can co ntrol. I have talked to numerous black men and they continuously comment on how easy it is to control and walk over their white women. I just want to set the record straight. I want A Disgusted White Girl to know that not all successful black men date white women. Brothers like Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael Jordan, Morris Chestnut, Will Smith, Blair Underwood , Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Samuel L. Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong black women And, to flip the script, there are numerous white men, in and out of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire black women over white women. Ted Danson, Robert DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few.

just don't want a disgusted white girl to be misinformed Stop thinking that because you are white th at you are some type of goddess. Remember, when black Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were ruling Dynasties and armies of men in Egypt , you were over in the caves of Europe eating raw meat and beating each other over the head with clubs.

Read your history!
It was the black woman that taught you how to cook and season your food. It was the black woman that taught you how to raise your children. It was black women who were breast feeding and raising your babies dur ing slavery. It is the black woman that had to endure watching their fathers, husbands, and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Black women were born with two strikes against them: being black and being a woman. And, through all this, Still They Rise!

It is because of the black women's strength, elegance, power, love and beauty that I could never date anyone except my black Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates and draws me to them. It is not the fact that they come in all shapes, sizes, colors and shades that I love them. Their inner beauty is what I find most appealing about black women. Their strong spirit, loving and nurturing souls, their integrity, their ability to overcome great obstacles, their willingness to stand for what they believe in, and their determination to succeed and reach their highest potential while enduring great pain and suffering is why I have fallen in love with black women. I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward jealousy and envy more so than snotty looks. If this were not so, then why do you continuously go to tanning salons to darken your skin? If you are so proud to be white, then why don't you just be happy with your pale skin?


Why do you continue to inject your lips, hips, and breasts with unnatural and dangerous substances so you can look fuller and more voluptuous? I think that your anger is really a result of you wanting to have what the black woman has.

BOTTOM LINE: If I were looking for a docile woman, someone I can walk over and control, I would give you a call. But, unfortunately, I am looking for a Virtuous Woman. Someone that can be a good wife and mother to my children. Someone who can be my best friend and understands my struggles. I am looking for a soul mate. I am looking for a sister and; unfortunately, you do not and CANNOT fit the bill. No offense taken, none given.

Signed, Black Royalty

Here is where I have this from:

It was a lotta truths on both sides of the spectrum. I won't go into the details, but I'm sure many of you will read between the lines.

Good post Be-you-tiful86.

 

This has been posted and beat up years ago.

 

I did not go through all topics and I am sure I am not the only one who hasn't.
I checked the first 3-5 pages of each forum section but didn't come over this post

 

My name is Andre, this shall be my first post here on this site so a cherry has been popped. I know fully well that this question has been dealt with before in the past, so I am going to keep my answer brief on the subject.

I don't for one second buy into any of the "because they are more docile" nonsense. Such a smoke screen for anyone to use in a serious discussion of the issue at hand. I honestly think it comes down to plain human factors. Such as location, quantity, and above all personal treatment. All things which involve no evaluation of one's color whatsoever. People are always trying to place things between blacks in whites in a grand historical context..and yes granted there is one. The history between the white and black american is deep, long, painful, and troublesome. But at the same time it's alot like in my view having two foes finally come to terms and make peace. Yes folks, Tom and Jerry are getting along drinking the tea.

Real black men don't pick women solely based on race, one just happens to be of the race that they are. It's no more different than saying "I prefer women with big breasts" just simply another characteristic one favors over another. Why must people make it so much more complex than that? True relationships, true love...is only partly based on physical attraction. Great sex binds a relationship, but great sex cannot mend a relationship when it wanes.

Honestly, if there is a black woman out there jealous of a black man and white woman couple...she should be mad at herself. If it means that much to her to where it pains or sickens her to see an interracial couple...then what you did she do wrong to send off the wrong message?

I may very well only be 24 years old, college educated, and soon to own my own co-op. But I choose women solely if they are in sync with my personality. I don't like headaches, chaos, loud talking, and high emotional stress. And no this is not solely correlated to black women. But all women. I can tell you without any hesitation that my atheism far aligns my potential in of itself from being with a black woman. I'm just never going to be that "good Christian brotha"..not going to happen. Numbers were always going to be against me, not because of some superficial racial preference I had for women..but my philosophical one...which dictates my life, my actions, and thusly helps determine my encounters.

 

Where did you go to college?
