    Do you think you might end up marrying a black male, if the conditions were ripe

    No (70%)
    Yes (30%)


    I have a problem with those 2 polls and 95% of the respondents were white mostly americans only 2% were black Gosh I hope racists were involved.

    I'm surprised by the physical superiority poll - it says 56% the of voters are white males, yet how many white males do you think would admit that they believe black males are physically superior? Hmm...

    Stereotypes like "white men can't jump" get a lot of heat, yet just look at the NBA. I'm no sports fan at all, but I've made a reasonable guess that black men are generally better at basketball than whites. However, I would think the average white male wouldn't accept this, or else he'd counter with a hateful stereotype about bm. Does make me wonder about accuracy of these polls.

    Please..... I hate to harp on stereotypes but most white guys (at least the ones i know) acknowledge the fact that, on a whole, men of West African descent are physically and athletically superior. This is not to say that Al Sharpton will defeat Newt Gingrich in every sport but the average black is more fit than the average white.

    No white male has ever run 100 meters in less than 13 seconds. At least 200 black men have done so in the Olympics. The last time a white guy held the 100m world record, Khrushchev was ensconced in the Kremlin. The NFL is 65% black, with its best players as proportional to its racial makeup. The NBA is 75% black, and its best players black as well. In the 1998 and 2002 Soccer World Cups, the winners (France and Brazil respectively) have had significant numbers of blacks. I could remain here all day if i decided to discuss black prowess in sports so i've made my point.

    personally i dont think one race of people is physically superior than the other because certain races do better at certain sports. there are sports that blacks are better at and then there are those that whites tend to do better at.

    I agree, but when I mentioned this on another board as a reason why white males are threatened by black men, people went ballistic. No one disagreed with what I said exactly, but they wouldn't acknowledge it, either. The board is mostly ww, and I'd hazard a guess that if wm were on there, they'd never agree with my statement. As it was, they put up a smokescreen by saying that generalizing is bad, believing that there are physical and behavior differences b/w races is wrong and racist, etc. I think racism is using those differences to prove that one race is better than another or to control a race of people. I'm not one to buy into stereotypes, but I do believe there are some differences b/w races. Just from my personal standpoint, I feel it is reasonable to say that black males are better at certain sports due to physical differences. I do agree with you that black males generally seem to be more fit than men of other races, so I guess I agree that they are physically superior. However, that brings you to the better in bed stereotype. If black males are indeed physically superior, then that must extend to the bedroom, right? I haven't slept with enough of each race race to know if there is any truth to that stereotype or not. But, just from reading some of the threads on this board, it seems like there is no clear verdict. I would guess that if bm are physically superior that would have to extend to their sexual prowess as well. I'm just curious to see what others think - I see at least one black man believes the physical stereotype to be true and doesn't see any problems with it. I think the problem many whites have with it is that it makes white men look as if they are deficient physically (someone used those words exactly) and have to compensate for it somehow. It's taboo to bring it up because white men do seem to have more ego issues than bm, and don't like their masculinity to be challenged.

    Ebony - I think that may partly have to do with the fact that whites and blacks tend to get into different sports. For instance, not many black men play tennis. So, white males are thought of as better at that sport, but if more black men were into tennis... you get the drift. Hispanics are known for being great at soccer, but most of the interest in the sport tends to lie in Hispanic regions.

    the reason i disagree is because i think whites are just better at some sports while blacks are bettter at others......alot of blacks go into weight lifting but whites tend to win the weight lifting contests......and as far as swimming goes....whites tend to be better at that because of the way their bodies are built. blacks tend to be better at short distance sprinting while whites are better at marathons and disk throwing eventhough you have blacks who go into that as well. whites also tend to do better at wrestling. blacks are better at basketball because of our height and the fact that we have quicker reflexes. blacks also tend to be better at soccer and baseball. asians and russians dominate gymnastics.

    Now I don't know about the wrestling thing because black people do well in Olympic styled wrestling I believe. It's just that beleive it or not but alot of bros that would like to wrestle in high school generally are stirred towards playing football. :idea:

    Never mind, people like to be too politically corect about this topic. O course they aren't going to admit it - "The Master Race" cannot be inferior at something after all -. I am by no means a "racial realist" or do i possess a degree in genetics so i might be wrong somewhere but there are significant physical different between the "races". For example, West Africans (like myself) tend to possess more fast twitch muscles and less body fat which is required for power related activities and things lie 100 and 200m races. Now i am very good at basketball, soccer and track but stink at 1,500m and suck donkey balls at lacrosse. Likewise, men of East African descent tend to be leaner, with more slow twitch muscles and slightly narrower hips which enables them to excel at endurance related exercises. Thus, their guaranteed sucesses at virtually every long-distance race at the Olympics.

    Black males have less body fat and more muscles, more fast twitch muscles, broader hips and joints which are more enhanced to strength than endurance. This is why blacks dominate whites in basketball, football, soccer and track but lose to whites at weight lifting and swimming. White males have more upper body strength on average than black males but black males have more muscular arms and shoulders which enables them to use the strength more. As such, there are more endomorphic whites than blacks but less white mesomorphs.

    However, most mix up physical fitness with sporting activities which is dangerous. Why? Because different sports require different qualities. Whilst blacks are more physically fit, it does not mean that every black will crush every white at every sport, OR that if a black man does not train and practise, he'd still come out on top. For example, basketball and football require physical features such as agility, flexibility, speed and power, which blacks possess more. Whereas, wrestling and tennis require different skills which whites possess more. Tennis requires upper body strength which whites have more.

    Also coming into consideration are social factors. Blacks, on average, have more interest in football and basketball, and to a lesser degree, baseball. Basketball and football are easy to get into than baseball or hockey. Many blacks come from areas where the availability of a court is as easy as rainfall in Seattle and so it is easier to get ingrained in hoops. Also because of physical and social features, blacks emphasize on things like dunks, blocked shots and rebounding over shooting, at least here in America. I am not making generalizations here by the way. Also, many of the athletes blacks relate to play those sports. This is not to say that blacks will not support white athletes but when it comes down to who they play like or admire, black males are less likely to identify with Tom Brady or Steve Nash than Michael Vick or Kobe Bryant. And whites will do the same too.

    So, in essence, physical fitness does not guarantee success in every sport.

    Amen to that. Blacks excel in freestyle wrestling, and not that homosexual WWE shit kind of wrestling.

    You make a curious point.

    On sports, I believe that because of their relative poverty, BM, the participate and excel only in those sports that do not require a great deal of expensive equipment.

    That was what i meant by social and cultural factors. Take the game of soccer for example. It's porbably the cheapest available game - honestly, all you need is a ball and you're good. You can make a goal-post with virtually anything. And even if you do not have a proper ball, there are thousands of alternatives. When i lived in Nigeria, we used to use all kinds of stuff to play soccer ranging from a real ball to paper squeezed up in plasic bags. We'd use stones, tyres, clothes, iron rods and many other things as the goalpost. And we used to play even on the roads if the fields had been taken up.

    However, the same cannot be said for a game like basketball. If there are no hoops, you can't play.

    Now look at Brazil and Argentina. They are arguably the best at world soccer because soccer is a culture there and is mainly played by the poor ethnic minorities which is why they excel at it. You could say the same for France too; ethnic minorities in France dominate soccer.

    So my theory about cheapness works - a lot.
