What's this racist bulls***?

You might think of this as "stupid", but it's not.

What is this thing about falling for a person just because of his/her skin color? I have talked to some black men (with sense in their head), and they say things like; "Who the h*** thinks that interracial porn is attractive?" and "Does interracial porn even sell at all?" (obviously it do, since it wouldn't be produced in so large numbers otherwise)?

Sure, I wouldn't give a f*** if a see an interracial couple, since I'm an egocentric man, and don't care much for other people. It's their business that I don't want to have anything to do with. But who the h*** does ONLY date women/men of just one race? That can only be called by one word, and that word is spelled R A C I S T.

I judge people for other factors than skin color (like religion and culture for example, that's not racist, just xenophobia) and fall for women because of their personality, not because of their skin color.

I have a mulatto friend (his mother is adopted), and he says that there's no way in h*** that he would date or even look at a woman just because of her skin color. Obviously he dates white girls since he considers himself as a Swede (yes, we live in Sweden), and there's not many immigrants here.

So why do you people out partners of your own kind?

edit: Looks like this came to the wrong forum. Would be nice if someone moved it to "The Attraction Between White Women and Black Men".

 

The definittion of racist: In 2008 still refering to someone as a "mulatto."

 

I'll call him mulatto, because his father is White. What else should I call him in this discussion? I normally call him a Swede, since he was born here and his mother came here at a very young age, and was raised by a Swedish family. But I can't call him a White Swede, since he's not White. And I won't call him Black either because of his father (but you might think that I should call him Black because of the so called "One-drop rule"?)

Maybe I shouldn't have said that it's his FATHER who is White, since I'm sure there are a couple (or mostly?) of people who shares Martin Lawrences character in National Securitys opinions. "I am a militant opponent against race mixing... if the man's White", bla bla. But since I don't live in America, I don't care. Skin color is irrelevant to me.

 

Bored Male- most of the people on this forum don't necessarily date one race. I date men of all races-but I am extremely attracted to bm. This forum is for us to exchange conversation and ideas since this has been such taboo in mainstream America. I date men based on many things-not because of their race. I am sure you only date women you are physiclly attracted too-and some people have a strong attraction for certain types of men or women and we don't tolerate racists on here. Maybe some date based on their life experiences as well, which we can't judge someone else's decisions as long as they aren't making racists comments. Let's not label people just because they have dating preferences.

 

people use alot of words we may think is archaic, but doesnt make it wrong.

i know many blacks, the word i use for my race--not afro americans or african americans, who still use colored(all my older relatives), black, negro etc. I think they are individuals with the right to free speech and opinions.

I see alot of people in this city, on television, etc that use the N word-mostly fellow black people, but complain about mulatto or colored. I find that the most egregious and hilarious.

 

Taboo in mainstream America? Now, I don't live in America, so maybe I shouldn't say anything, but I hear neo nazis all the time say things like; "I hate that f***ing sionist MTV wanting to show negros as good people" and bla bla. But we're not going to discuss nazis now.

Well, sure America is very heterogeneous. I read somewhere that a third of all White people has about 5-20% Black blood, and about 60-70% of all Blacks in America have about 5-20% White blood. Calculations say that White people barely won't exist in 2050, but we're not going to discuss that either.

Personally, race is irrelevant to me. I do dislike immigrants that came here in adult age (especially muslims), but I don't dislike Blacks with a Swedish background (as the same thing I wouldn't dislike a well dressed Black American, since he is an American). Nationality do matters to me, but not race. White Americans and Black Americans are the same people in my eyes.

I once dated a Black woman (adopted), and not the f*** did I fall in love with her because of her SKIN COLOR. We fell in love because we shared interests, laughed at the same jokes and so on. Anyone who falls in love with a man/woman just because he is Black/she is White is NOT normal in my eyes.

 

"What" (black/white/nationality) are you, boredmale? Normally thats irrelevent, but I had to ask because of your judgememtal post.

 

People can call themselves whatever they want. That doesnt mean others have that same right.

 

I think people can call themselves mulatto, N word, negro, colored, etc. I think others can call others by names too--i.e. african american, black, colored, N word, negro, which they do already.

I dont call myself african american nor do i call others that, but others feel they can call me that--i dont get mad about it, but to assume that others wont use those words, i would be crazy to think that, because they do.

 

Since I said I dated a black woman and didn't fall in love with her because of her skin color basically means I'm White. Although according to some people I'm also of "mixed race" since my mother is from Finland and a lot of people claims Finns and Swedes are of different races and have different looks (the White race has "sub races", so does the Black and the Yellow race also).

But the thread is not about my opinions, it's about falling for a person just because of his/her skin color.

I'm kind of allergic to shallow people in any case. I'm fairly tall myself, and I could never see myself dating a woman who says "she would never date a guy under 6'". Even though I do "pass" her requirements, I wouldn't like her one bit for saying that.

I just think it's stupid to "fall in love" with someone because of height/skin color etc.

 

I personally have dates men of all races except for Asian-not because I wouldnt want to but because I havent had the opportunity yet.
Although I don't limit myself to ONE race I do prefer black men.
Now that itself is not enough reason to date one. There are plenty of black men who don't physically or mentally attract me so I am still picky in my choice of man.

 

owned. :smt095

 

Personally speaking Bored Male, I am 41 years old and done ewhat society expects of me. Now, I am doing for me and dating a man that I am atrracted to.,

 

totally, bosox, me too 42 and always think for myself and not what others think.

btw, i am a big redsox fan

 

Thats the dumbest thing I ever heard. So if one of your family members call your mom by her first name, some family nickname, or one of her sisters jokingly calls her a "b*tch," its ok if I call her a "b*tch or "pudding" or some other family nickname? I didnt think so.

Only ignorant people repeat something that they hear someone else say.

 

actually, no because no one in my family would do that first and second, i didnt say it was right to call people rudely by a name, but if someone calls someone a negro, colored or black, or african american, not knowing what they like to be called it is not going to upset the apple cart, like a curse word insult would like the N word or the B word

 

You have finally showed your trrue colors. And your a clown. Yeah, thats kinds harsh, but it fits you perfectly.

You think people who prefer to date a race rather than their own are racist. Their not racist. Its called having a preference. (As long as they respect their own race, thats more important.)

Race doesnt bother you, and yet you dont mind to insult them by refering to them as mulatto or "yellow." (Yeah, asians love that word.) You dont mind "well dressed black men," which leaves me to wonder how you feel or what you would say about a "no-so-well-dressed black guy."

And as far as immigrants (especially muslims) are concerned, you dont hate based on race, but religion or personal situaltions - you think these immigrants just decided to pick up and start over just for a challenge - are fair game.

If I rearrange the letters of your name will they spell "malikom?" (Yeah, I know you dont know him, but trust me, you would like him.)

 

thanks, i like your conversation style. If i disagree with you you have to insult someone who doesnt follow you views.

so thanks

 

tuckerreed-go back and read what the original poster wrote that jellybird was talking about. The guy's reasoning makes no sense! Jelly is correct-the guy is calling others racist, when in fact he descriminates against others himself.
