I always wanted to date a hot Asian woman... when I went to Vietnam last year I fell in love every day.
 
I guess mine is warped by coming from a more privileged background. Not that I haven't been around. I grew up all over the world, but I've only ever seen those stereotypes in Hollywood movies.

I have lived in different countries too. It is not an easy thing to move internationally and leave people and everything you know behind, but it is great life experience.
 
The only real interracial marriage strife I have seen is from black women complaining about rich successful black men like football players taking white women for wives so often.

My observation is that the ones that do that either don't have a man or are not satisfied with the one that they have. People that are satisfied with themselves and what they have don't generally have a problem with such things.

But I haven't taken a poll.

WOW!!! Sounds like that's where I need to go!
 
I think a lot of black women are beautiful



I would've dated a black girl once. She was crushin' on me big time, and she refused to date her own race. She had NOTHING good to say about black men. I liked her and would've pursued it if I wasn't in a relationship at the time.

And, as always, if Tyra Banks or Aisha Tyler ever come my way, it's on like Donkey Kong.
 
In Europe the guys say American girls.are easy, but I am not an expert on these things.

Gotta pick a poison, dear. I admit to my perception being warped by seeing white women who weigh two and a half bills, dressed in sweats and a wife beater - or women who would give it away for five bucks and a pack of Marlboro reds.

I used to be an arcade rat in my teens and twenties, and most of the guys who hung out there were black. I asked a few of them why so many black guys date white girls. The response was always the same: white girls are easy.

Many are. I mentioned two. Throw in the chick that plays Hillary on Fresh Prince, and Janet Jackson (Velvet Rope days). Oh and Robin Givens in Boomerang, and Holly Robinson.

Generally I prefer lighter skin.

I was so young when it started, I literally didn't know any other way. Never stayed in one place long enough to grow roots. Until now. But I still travel a heck of a lot. I have to or I lose my freaking mind if I stay in one place too long.
 
This is true. It's the blowjobs. European girls seem to be a lot more reluctant to give them. :lol:

That's interesting. I wonder why that's so. I was under the impression that Europeans where not as uptight about sexuality as Americans. Perhaps you are joking.

And what do you prefer yourself? And why?

Thank the Lord that Aussie girls don't share the same apprehension. Those are some generous ladies.
 
Tell me about it. When we lived in Nairobi, Kenya my sister and I wished so badly to be as graceful and beautiful as some of the girls we knew there. The Somali girls were especially gorgeous.

I bet. I was in Fiji for a while. The native Fijian women are very beautiful. They have such nice attitudes and are very easy going. I had a great time there!

Not joking. American girls have a reputation for being very skilled at oral sex.

That's interesting. But come to think of it, I have met girls here that find it somewhat odd that I'm not really into oral sex. I prefer the old fashioned way. But that's just me.

Months of formal courting in the company of your lady love's family, clandestine love letters, and an offer of marriage with the expectation of a dowry?
 
Let's throw some data into the discussion:

First up is data on the racial preferences expressed by white men and women.

Next up we take a look at how people of all races act based on the millions of data points in the OK Cupid database. This chart shows willingness to reply to
a person of another race:

InterracialDating1_zps927dffa2.jpg


For instance, an Asian female will reply to 22% of contacts made by an Asian male, 17% of contacts made by a black male and 29% of contacts made by a white male.

The the stars and planets align and women actually reach out to men, this is what we see in the form of responses from the men:

When we increase the seriousness of the relationship and look only upon marriage, this is what we see:

When we look at risk of divorce, then we see the well-known high divorce rate for interracial marriages. Of note is the growth of unstable interracial marriages amongst the young. The older generations actually had marriages which were more stable than same-race couples, likely due to the social stigma and the couple therefore being very certain that they wanted to have a life together. Younger couples seem to have bought into the hype of "enlightenment" associated with interracial marriages and so these marriages are falling apart more frequently than same-race marriages and this divorce disparity is increasing as we look at more recent cohorts:

If we look into the nuts and bolts of the failed marriages, we see that when white women are involved, the risk of divorce skyrockets compared to when it is a white man in the marriage:

According to the adjusted models predicting divorce as of their 10th year of marriage, interracial marriages that are most vulnerable involve White females and non-White males (with the exception of White females/Hispanic White males) relative to White/White couples. Conversely, White men/non-White women couples show either very little or no differences in divorce rates; or, as in the case of White men and Black women, are substantially less likely than White/White couples to divorce by their 10th year.​
 
If they keep their mouths shut, how do you know they feel that way?

You can't read their theology and figure out what they're supposed to believe? Certainly, you can't know what is really going on in their heads, but it's a safe assumption that they buy into it, just like you can't know for certain that members of the KKK are racist but it's a safe bet.
