Why white men love the black woman

Posted by James, 31 Aug

Ever wondered why some white guys, love black women so much?

It seems that being a white male and proclaiming your attraction to black women (not only sexually, but also romantically) may lead to a lot of controversial and dangerous things. Let’s leave the debate of why more black women may be opening themselves up to white guys. The main focus of this debate is: why some white guys are opening themselves to black women. Let’s concentrate on that.

Find your soulmate on AfroRomance

Most white males don’t feel like they are running short of white women to marry. White males just marry at high rates. So question is: Why black women? The thing is it will not be fair to bundle up black women as one since everyone is their own person… be it in appearance or personality.

However, one thing that a white male friend of mine said… and I let him get away with bundling it all up is: “We love a black woman's confidence, her tenacity and her undeniable achievements in the face of great adversity...᾿ Since this info was coming from a man, there was definitely the mention of the lips, the curves, and that wonderful skin as well.

So what about stereotypes like “black women are either sexually conservative or total sluts?" Many people give so much lip service to interracial dating sites. You would think they have never done it. But those uptight individuals are the ones that spread these stereotypes. What happened to the highly educated black woman? How about the caring, decent and involved black woman?

Probably most white guys and others are confused with the stereotypical trash people spread around and if you are one that falls for such lame ol’ lines, then you sure as hell haven’t dated a black woman.

Bottom line, you don't have to sacrifice who you are for a white guy. They will love you anyway. Just be you and open yourself up… and if you like white guys, some white guy will find you too.

    @friendly13 Bringing down the House was great I like Steve Martin and I love the Queen. She is a gorgeous woman! How about White Men Can't Jump? Has anyone mentioned it yet. That was a good movie. There is another one I was thinking of but can not remember the name of it. If I think of it I will post it. It was a comedy. Have a great 4th of July and be safe. God Bless!

    @ Nawlunzguy If you work with this lovely lady, perhaps you could leave a single yellow rose on her desk for her to find in the morning that reads on a little note attached "I would love the opportunity to take you out to dinner" If you don't know her yet but would like to get to know her, open up a conversation with a realistic gentlemently compliment like I really like the fragrance you are wearing. Then the advice that tatted2death gave regarding flirting will come in handy. If she flirts back and doesn't point out that she is already in another relationship then that is a good sign.

    @ Nawlunzguy I hate posers people who aren't themselves so I'd say the way you would ask any women is the way to ask her out dnt try to be all suave and cool if you aren't already that. BE YOURSELF ask her out your way

    thankx for all the input guys it really helped...i want to correct one thing I said just incase it offended when I said "trashy" white guys i mean guys without class that dress like they live in a barn:) as for one comment made apprach the white male bc he may not feel he can approach me I'm bold as a lion but one thing will not do is approach the male first I dnt think women should pursue or make the first move that just makes the guy look bad there is this white guy I already like a lot we kid around we joke and have fun together and everything behind my smile and laughter though are sort of intense feelings I dnt if he feels the same he's never dated a black girl so I dnt know ii whish he would just ask me if I have feelings for him so I could answer UH YEAH!!! if I was the first move makin' kind of women who knows how many lovely white men I could have had but since I'm not I'm waiting patiently for my confident, handsome, intellegent, funny, loving, white guy to come and sweep me off my feet.:)

I do whatever it takes to keep myself honest and usually things come out o.k. Hope you continue to grace us with your presence as well, GreyEyed @Ms. M...... Yes, Mr. Wahlberg is......well,.... beyond words.....lol. So is Mr. Depp (He tops my list in EVERY way...lol). Dang it, now you got me thinking here....I should have a "list"....lol. I know it would be long.....hmmmmm....Mr. Jackman, Mr. Pitt, Mr.Hetfield and Mr. Hammett(Metallica), Mr. Goldblum, Mr. Oldman, Mr. Kitsch.....wow...that's just the tip of the iceberg there....LMAO.

    Hey Nawlunz....I'll bite (lol) I think the best way is probably just some good ole fashioned flirting. Whatever your style of flirt is, don't change it simply because the lady in question maybe "melanin blessed". If things are truly mutual a woman secure in who/what she is WILL step it up (flirting will get more intense). Soon there will be little if any doubt at all that you two are meant to at least take it to the next level and get beyond the "butterfly" stage. Hey, if all else fails just say this.... "Have you seen that movie "Something New"????? ....that's bound to start a conversation that will definitely get you some answers..... Just some humble advice there, Nawlunz..... ....but at the risk of getting the "hand" from friendly again (lol), I think you don't really need much advice as you are getting your share of attention here *wink*.... Peace and Blessings tatted2death

    Nawlunzguy: I can't say that I am brave enough to take on such a topic. I can say this, however I believe my sisters have a right to be with whom they desire without backlash from others. I posed a series of other questions in another thread at least two days ago about White men's approach to online dating as it relates to "ME." I must emphasize "ME." I am hoping for some feedback because I have a small amount of experience dating White men and none of which has been lengthy. There are some things I don't understand and would like to get clarity from the horse's mouth so to speak. The questions I posed can only be answered by "White Men." My presence or limited presence in this forum thread (at this time) speaks to the questions I posed in "Online Dating - Men's Strategy." I'll let the experienced WM/BW daters answer your querry as I try to get answers to mine! Best,

    Hello guys, how are you, i hope your fine and doing well. Acually i am from Afghanistan. I read some of your comments, some of them worth to take into account. But some of them were pondering and they were conterversial. In my country once you get married with your prospective spouse so you won't be able to get divorce. Because they respect each other, love each other, they share their happiness and sadness and help each other until the pass away this worthless life. The reason why i mentioned worthless life, in my point of view we are here for a while, no gaurantee when you will leave this world. As a matter of fact be aware of your every moment of life, never give up and trust strong to God. Its really All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

    Why is it so bad for a Black woman to date a white man? You can"t put all Black womwn In the same catergory we are all different. Not every Black woman want's to use a man for whatever he has or for that matter doesn't have. In this day and age a woman whether Black or white etc., Want's to be looked at as a woman to be loved and cared for and respected! Black women have been the backbone for so long without the appreciation and respect they deserve from any man. There are so many stereotypes out there if your interested in a Black woman you need to find out for your self! I'm a Blk/Wm who likes all nationality of men who know how to treat me and respect me. Attraction is Attraction we can not help who we like or turns us on. My family was raised that everyone deserves a chance and i feel every relationship deserves a chance, these relationships work out or not! Just let people love who they love. I feel all men of every race are worthy to have a beautiful woman in their life no matter what color she may be. As well as all women should have a wonderful man in their life to love them too! Remember Men Black woman need Love too! First and foremost we are women not just a color!

    @ Ms. M Actually, the "troll-duck" was a far more horrible creature....I would rather not even mention his name. Boots can be somewhat adversarial...but the "troll-duck" was a complete nightmare.

    @dannyco56 "I hope that you find the man you are searching for and that he will love you endlessly" I think that has got to be the sweetest, kindest thing anyone has said to me all year! I will continue to come here I need some kind of balance to when people look at me out of the corner of their eyes and ask "who did you grow up with?" Sometimes I feel like I'm in the closet because if people find out you feel a certain way they think you don't like being Black or you hate dark skin or you think White men are better than Black men. I don't think that. Heck, a man is a man. Fine is fine. @tatted2death I'm with you on Mark Walberg. Fine is fine.

    @tatted2death I guess the "troll-duck" you were refering to was Boots? Anyway there is hope for him yet and any one else who wants to come here to "save" Black women. When I was younger whenever I used to see a interracial couple me and my mom would give them the hate stare. We would stare at them and summon all the hate in our hearts. And if it was a White woman/Black man she better not dare look my way because she would really get it! Why did we do this? As I grew older and was exposed to different people my mentality started to change. In fact a series of things happened to me to show me that this way of thinking was so stupid.

    @All Good Morning, I hope all are doing well. I just wanted to welcome GreyEyedLady and DaveinGeorgia to the board and say I hope you meet that special one either here or out in the real world. @GreyEyedLady You may or may not believe this, but many white men do not know how to approach their darkskinned sisters for a date. IR dating between BF and WM is still relatively new. In fact I do not see to many BF and WM that are just friends conversing and getting to know each other. I think it well become more common in time. You might if you see a WM that interests you looking at you (hopefully not staring)you might give him a suttle hint that you might be approachable. Remember if he is staring it could be that he finds you so attractive that he can not take his eyes off of you. I found myself staring at a few beautiful BF's when I was a younger unmarried man and it was because they were just drop dead gorgeous. I know it is not polite but sometimes men can not help themselves hope you beautiful ladies will forgive us. Just wanted to add my thoughts. I hope you find the man you are looking for. @Davein Georgia I just wanted to add a thought about the situation you wrote about in a trip to Baltimore. IR relationships between WM and BF are not all that common yet. The stares could be because it is something new they have not seen much of yet or it could have been a bunch of racists. I think it is common though for people to look or even stair when they see something they have not see or rarely have seen. You are pioneers! The more it becomes common the less people will look. Just know that two people in love with one another do not need anyones blessing but God"s. I hope that you find the BF you are looking for and that you both will be very happy. God Bless! Danny

    @tatted2death! It's that obvious, eh? LOL Well I would modestly offer that I don't compare to Kevin, although @friendly13 certainly seems to outshine Zoe [no offense meant Ms. Saldana]. The analogy is well taken and appreciated. (Please keep your pom-poms handy). I would comment, and I'm sure you noticed, @friendly13 dodged your assessment completely! (Big grin). Oh, for the record, Zoe has been with Keith Britton for nearly 10 years and recently announced her engagement and wedding plans. Hurray for another IR Couple!

    Good Day, Good People.... and as I say this I think I can honestly breathe a sigh of relief that our little "troll-duck" is actually GONE....(LOL). Not to dwell, but as I watch the flood of "positive" newcomers I can't help but think he truly WAS keeping (good) people away with all the negative rhetoric. I just had to express that. Now onto brighter days here.... I must say I am getting that "cheerleader twinge" again with Nawlunz and friendly....Could we have our own "Zoe"-"Kevin" match-up here????*wink*....I won't say anymore here....(but I am smiling from ear to ear for you two.....even if nothing more than a good friendship comes of it; that's nothing to sneeze at...lol). Oh wow.....someone mentioned a Thandie Newton movie and that got me to thinking....how could I forget another good IR match-up movie??? The Truth About Charlie with Ms. Newton and (Marky....LOL) Mark "Foine Azz" Walhberg. Forgive me, but there is just something about that man....even when he wears more than those dayum Calvin Klein undies (LMAO). Anyways..just wanted to drop by and say hi.... Keep up the good work here, Lovely People Peace and Blessings tatted2death

    Thought I would pop in and tell everyone 'nighty-night'! @DaveinGeorgia - thanks for sharing your thoughts and support. Yes N.O. is an awesome town, and its rich history and cultural diversity (aka gumbo) make it an interesting place to live and visit. One thought... I don't think it's racism you're experiencing. IMHO it's usually a lack of tolerance or acceptance. It appears (my opinion again) there's more acceptance for white-asian or white-hispanic relationships. This is based on my past involvement with those who were non-caucasian. I felt my experiences when in public with a black woman elicited more 'notice' from others and I empathize. But as @friendly13, @godiva61, and @Scoff/Sarah have already pointed out, (and great comments to you all), it comes with the turf. We each handle the stares, attitudes, etc., differently. I have been fortunate to have been with someone, during those 'uncomfortable moments', who also shared a great sense of humor. It's a trait I possess and seek. I digress... I usually have made it a point to go out of my way to demonstrate I'm aware of someone's "intolerance" or "lack of acceptance looks". Past actions have included a) sending over complimentary drinks, b) waving to the person(s) as if to say 'hi', c) sharing a small kiss with my date while under the 'watchful eye', d) buying flowers and offering them on one knee as if I were proposing... It was enlightening and fun and the reactions varied but in general, I think they all 'got my point' and perspective which is: Personally, I don't give a rat's ass (one of my favorite sayings) what others think. My date's personality and her well being, and what was available to me for a response, predicated my reaction. To sum it up, I always look at life as an adventure, so my dating habits tended to reflect that tone and attitude. @GreyEyedLady - what's more exotic looking: a solid white horse, a solid black horse, or a zebra (the best of both)? Don't worry about labels; people that don't share your views or sentiments always have a name for things, such as 'oreo'. I will agree with you that approaching a black woman does tend to drive my perspiration glands into overdrive. While some might claim its a fear of rejection, I think it is more likely attributed to 'perceived' cultural differences. In fact, I posted a comment in early June, as I recall, on this very topic. No one responded to it so it sorta 'fell off the blog map'. Maybe us guys can learn the ladies comments regarding this (hint, hint). OK, well it's way past my bed time and there's no one to tuck me in or read a good story to me... LOL. G'night all!

    @ DaveinGeorgia I have never been to Boston...but I do live in a Northern area Indiana....there are some areas that have a small porportion of minorities like my area. There are some old fashioned people still living who were taught the no mixing concept. The best thing to do is look at it like this...I am a beautiful black woman with a strong white man and that is why people are looking because they are in awe and impressed. There are a few bold people who will intentionally try to speak out and let you know they don't like it...but not very many....most of it is jealousy anyway...so don't worry about them...just do what you like and have some fun. If they can they will make you focus on the negative so that the man will look at you differntly. They want to make you feel uncomfortable so that you will start to feel bad about who you are with and what color he is and you are. If you just be happy with him they will have to go away with their tails tucked in shame because you had the better attitude. Remember, black women are strong...we have survived and overcome many obstacles...getting staired at is nothing for us.

    @godiva we were down at Inner Harbor (beautiful by the way)and really had a great time but we could "feel the stares" so to speak. but you know it is really more of a tourist area so it might have just been people from all over and not just Baltimore. thanks for your reply.

    @DaveinGeorgia, What part of Baltimore were you in? I have family and friends in Baltimore, so that's one of the reason why I'm asking. Also I think sometimes that maybe people are not looking at us for the reasons we might think! If they are giving you looks of dissapproval, who gives a damn? If you are going to be in a interracial relationship, this comes with the territory unfortunately! love godiva

    this is a little off topic but i would like to hear the forum respond. this is a seriuos question and im not here trying to stir up things. we all know that racism is alive and well in the south but last month myself and a black lady friend of mine went up to Baltimore for the weekend. we both felt like people were looking at us like we were from another planet. i dont travel up north very often and in fact it was the first time i have been up north with a person of a different race with me. we both felt like it was 1980 or something the way people were looking at us. are people up north more prone to be racist toward interracial couples than down south now? im confused because we both live in a smaller georgia city of about 180,000 people and rarely feel like we are discriminated against. but we did feel it up in Boston. what do some of you think of this? do you think maybe we were overreacting?

    For Ms. Lovecrazy The advice that DaveinGeorgia has bestowed on you is so true. Going way back to the mid 60's when Scoff & I first become invovled, I related some of our history in my/our earlier post, we knew if we had so to say; came out of the closet, we both would have suffered physical harm. Myself I know tha the Black community would of shunned me, more than likely my family would of disowned me. Not wanting or willing to put ourselves through that trauma, we made a choice to keep our relationship secert. True times have changed, our the out side, but have all people changed, most likely not. Even today as Scoff and I venture out we get looks, as one young black couple blantantly asked is that man your with Cuban, when I replied no his from right here in Alabama, they both shook their heads in disbelief. Oh let me stop, before I start rambling on & on (you know how we old folks get sometime) lolol God Bless Sarah

    Thanks everyone. It's good to be here. To lovecrazy I understand what you are saying and I too lived and loved the white man and I live in NYC and they too called me a oreo. There is a lot of interracial couples here. And there are plenty of nice looking white men that has caught my eye. But they don't know approach me at all. I'm not a bad looking female--in fact I look younger than I am. but that's not the point. I'm smart and I try to better myself in this crazy and mixed up world. But I keep my head up and continue doing what I've been doing with or without a man. And I know that there is someone out there who will accept me for who I am. God Bless

    hello lovecazy, i understand what you mean by saying trashy white guys. but dont settle for anyone no matter what their skincolor. go after what you want. i realize the black/white dating is still an issue here in the south cause i live here in georgia but you gotta take a chance sometimes. if you know any white guys that you might be interested in dating sometimes you gotta be strong and just let them know cause for some reason most white guys wont approach black women the same way they would a white woman. let me tell you that there are plenty of white guys who would love to get with you but not in public, dont settle for this at all cause they really dont want you. find you a decent man that dont mind bringing you home to meet their family then you will know that they are sincere. best of luck lovecrazy.

    @ DaveinGeorgia Hey, thanks a bunch for sharing your reasons for "Why the white men love the black women." Your comments mean a lot. I hope you find the sista of your dreams.
