What is this overwhelming desire of black people to tell other black people who to date? This is America and the white man's prophesy of race mixing is coming true. You throw a bunch of people together and soon they find things in common, not necessarily with people of their own complexion, background, income or whatever. It is natural and there is no way to stop it other than to legislate it away. Sorry!!

WOW!!! Really sad stuff all the negative stereotypes that are associated w/African American women!!! I will have to admit that contrary to what ppl may think or care to admit those comments are very hurtful! I guess what I don't understand is why are we treated as the lesser? I mean as if we (everyone that is) doesn't have enough to contend with on a daily basis. We as a race are so divided and not because a brother or a sister decides to date out of their race, but simply because of the negative attitudes and lack of respect from both black men and women towards one another. I just have a few questions, if you're happy w/the person you're with then why do you have to make negative comments such as, "I'll never date a black woman"!!! WOW - such self hatred....not because of who you're with but just those words alone state what you really believe about yourself. Quite frankly, AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN are the only ones that make immature statements as such. I've never heard Robert Deniro get on TV and say, I'll never date an Italian woman and yet he has always dated African American women. Additionally, Caucasian men love Asian women, and yet I never heard/hear them say, "I'll never date a white woman"! What gives!!! I think mostly because they are truly (emphasis added) happy w/who they are and who they are with. Also my second question is African American men crack me up because they act as if Caucasian men are sitting around embracing them dating Caucasian women - NOT!!! My son's friend asked a Caucasian girl out, and she told him that "her father said she isn't allowed to date black men! Also my Caucasian girlfriend said one of her clients (African American guy dating Caucasian lady) broke up because the Caucasian young lady's father told her if she continued to date him, she would be written out of his Will" - she broke up w/him! So let's not get it twisted - let's look at this for what it truly is.... And as an African American woman, I say to the brothers at least have enough respect and dignity not to make such negative statements without trying to understand the heart of all women no matter WHO they are! The truth is we could all do a little mudslinging, but really what would and what is that accomplishing??? Guess what, no matter who you decide to settle down with, she/he will still have issues - it all depends on who you decide to allow in your row boat and go through the storm with!!! At the end of the day we're all human....and we all have issues because no one is flawless!!
