According to some BW: White Men & Black Men aren't equal


Why is it that every other group of men in the world are allowed to state their preferences and black men aren't?

For example, my husband has a number of white male colleagues at work. Many of these guys are in their late 20's, early 30's and are either married or looking to settle down. They talk about the process of selecting women like picking out a car or a home: they have very specific requirements, some they are willing to pass on and some they absolutely MUST have. This includes everything from looks to education to personality.

So why is it that black women want to take this power away from BLACK men but accept the fact that WHITE men can be choosy.

Let me give some examples:

White man: I do not date overweight women. I feel that women tend to gain weight after childbearing so I rater date someone who is already in shape or is midnful of the need to exercise.

Black women: Mmmmm hmm, that makes a lot of sense. I need to go 'head and get my workout routine going. It is important to be healthy.

Black man: I do not want to wife a chick who is big. I want a chick with a little waist and a big booty.

Black women: YOU ARE A MISOGYNIST and a BLACK FEMALE RACIST.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White man: I like a woman who is confident and sexy.

Black woman: *nods*

Black man: I want a chick who is confident and sexy.

Black woman: YOU ARE A MISOGYNIST.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White man: I need a woman who has some basic domestic skills. It is important to know how to keep a house clean. I will not get serious about a woman who keeps a dirty home.

Black woman: Mmm hmm, it is so sad that women have lost the desire to take care of their home.

Black man: I need a chick who can burn in the kitchen!

Black woman: YOU WANT A SLAVE AND A MAID.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White man: I don't really care how educated a woman is. I am not looking for someone to take care of me. I just want someone who will raise my kids to love learning and be smart.

Black woman: I know, so many brothers just want to use women with education.

Black man: All them degrees you keep talking about is not what is going to attract me to you.

Black woman: YOU ARE TRYING TO KEEP BLACK WOMEN DOWN. You are JEALOUS that we are outpacing you in education. You don't want us to be better. YOU HATE US.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White man: I do not date women I am not attracted to.

Black women: That is fair. No one should be with someone they are not attracted to.

Black man: I do not date women I am not attracted to.

Black woman: YOU ARE A BLACK RACIST. You should embrace all black women and consider all of them worthy of marriage.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White man: I would never date a feminazi. Those chicks scare me.

Black woman: OMG I know!

Black man: I will not date some overbearing, harsh, emasculating ball-buster.

Black woman: YOU HATE BLACK WOMEN!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White man: Some black women are just unattractive and masculine.

Black woman: I know! I keep telling those women to just be more feminine. I can see why men don't want to date them.

Black man: Some black women are just unattractive and masculine

Black woman: YOU HATE BLACK WOMEN

  1. wow. I don't think I've heard any women take this approach regarding black men. of course, that's not saying it doesn't happen.

    Everyone should have their preference when it comes to dating.
